The Hen Party Part 2

We drive for a few minutes until we reach the big Tesco. The driver parks the limo at the back of the car park.
"I'll just nip in and grab some stuff, what do you all want?" I ask.
"Sorry Mil no offence, but you're not going in" Molly replies
"What, why not?" I ask sounding offended.
"You literally just had a panic attack. Someone else can go in" she replies. At least she is being reasonable but I'm fine now.
"I'll go" Katie replies quickly "just tell me what to get" she then gets her phone out, so that she can write a list.
"Apple Sourz" Meg replies.
"Blue WKD" Lucy adds.
"Get Malibu" my mum shouts from the back.
"Get champagne" Molly replies.
"Red Wine" Sam replies.
"If I'm being forced to drink, then get Kopparberg" I reply finally "Make sure it's the mixed fruit one as well. The strawberry and lime one is minging"
"Okay, so I'm getting  Sourz, Wicked's, Malibu, champagne, Red Wine and mixed fruit Kopparberg" Katie replies reading out the list "anything else?"
"No I think that should do it. There's probably some leftovers in the cupboards anyway" Molly replies.
"Okay then we'll be back in a minute" Kayleigh says as she opens the car door and steps out. Katie follows and then slams the door shut.

"They are definitely gonna look like a pair a alky's" Lucy says bluntly as soon as the door shuts.
We all burst out laughing at her comment and the way she just stated it.
"What, they are" she replies.

*****

About 10 minutes later the door swings open and Katie and Kayleigh start unloading a trolley packed full of shopping bags into the car. Yep they definitely looked like alky's in there.

"We got some other things as well, it's not all booze" Kayleigh announces before she gets in and slams the door, as if she could hear my thoughts. Molly then tells the driver that we are ready to go and the drive back to my parents house begins.

We take the main road this time as it takes at least 15 minutes off of the journey. When we arrive at the security gates my mum pops her head out of the window and they let us in. The limo parks up on the gravel outside the house and we all clamber out of the back of the limo grabbing the heavy carrier bags as we go.

The lodge is another house on our land. Generally my grandparents and other guests we have stay in it. It's much smaller than the main house, but it's just as gorgeous. It is nearer the sea than our house and is a 2 minute walk away from it.

We walk until we reach the lodge. My mum opens the door and we see the rest of the hen party guests from the other limo dancing around under disco lights, which they must have set up whilst we were at Tesco. The furniture has been cleared to the sides of the room and a large space has been left in the middle to use as a dance floor.

Everyone who is carrying a bag puts it down on the kitchen island and unpacks it. Most of it is booze, but there are a few other things such as crisps and sweets. We put some of the drinks in the fridge to keep them cool and some of the snacks into bowls, which we leave on the counter, for people to grab what they want.

Before I go and join everyone else, I grab a can of Kopparberg off of the counter and take a sip. I go and sit on one of the couches that has been moved out of the way and soon after my mum joins me.

"Let's get everyone to write down a funny memory they have of Molly and get Her to guess who wrote it" my mum says quietly.
"Yeah that sounds like a good idea, I'll go find something to write them down on" I reply. I then get up off of the couch and go into the rest of the house to search for a notebook or piece of paper.

I search all of the rooms downstairs; the kitchen, the sitting room, the boot room, the bathroom (I refuse to use toilet paper), one of the bedrooms and the hallway. I can't find anything, so I decide to check upstairs. I reach the stairs and decide to take my shoes off because upstairs all of the carpets are light coloured, and my feet are also starting to get sore.
