Barista Boy (boyxboy)

FIFTEEN

"So, I didn't bring any money because I assumed you were paying." Josh explained, referring to Zayden.

The male rolled his eyes and scoffed, "Of course you did."

Josh chuckled and shrugged, "What?"

Landon giggled lightly at the banter between the two males as they entered the bar. Bright purple and pink lights flashed as soon as they stepped foot inside.

The thing was, it wasn't just a bar. There was also a huge dance floor with a bunch of drunk people stumbling around.

Music blasted the three's ears. The place was packed, making it difficult to even see through the crowd. Zayden worried that he might lose Landon so he was quick to find the other's hand and grab it, squeezing lightly. To which Landon squeezed back.

Josh grabbed Zayden's other wrist and pulled him along, navigating their way to the bar. There were two available seats right beside each other so Zayden and Landon sat down while Josh stood in between them.

"Alright. Josh, here, is great with alcohol so I'd let him pick everything for you. I don't drink a big variety of drinks." Zayden raised his voice so Landon would hear him over the music and chatter.

"So he's an alcoholic?" Landon asked.

Zayden chuckled and nodded, which earned him a slap on the head from Josh.

"Shut up, gay boy." He muttered, making Zayden laugh harder. Josh turned to the bartender and ordered three of the same drinks. He thought they'd start off easy with just drinks with alcohol instead of straight shots, which he was dying to do.

Only a minute later did they get the drinks back. The liquid was a soft red color with ice on top and a small umbrella to add effect.

The boys all took a sip at the same time, Josh chugging half of the cup, Zayden taking a normal sip and flinching at the strong taste, and Landon testing it out with a small sip and then gagging at the sudden shot of alcohol.

Sure, he'd tried alcohol before. But it had been years and he never liked the taste. However, the alcohol was less apparent with the burst of other tastes all coming in at the same time.

Zayden and Josh laughed at the boy's reaction to the drink and waited for him to take another sip. The second sip wasn't as bad, since Landon already knew what to expect, and he ended up drinking most of the drink before getting tired of it.

The other two had already finished their drinks and Josh was quick to order another random drink. Like before, the three took a taste at the same time. This time, Landon didn't gag, only flinched since this drink was stronger than the last.

Zayden seemed to show more of an interest towards this one since he drank it faster. Josh was already done by the time Landon went in for his third sip.

"C'mon! Chug it!" Josh urged the youngest boy.

Landon glanced nervously between the two boys before nodding and preparing himself, then downing the rest of it and coughing a bit afterward.

Zayden took the cup from him and patted him on the back, helping his cough. Josh smiled and clapped at the two before going in and ordering three shots.

The male slid one to Landon and one to Zayden, keeping the third for himself. At the same time, they all downed the liquid.

Landon couldn't help but gag and then cough a bit after tasting it. The shot ended up being ten times stronger than the drinks. Which didn't surprise him since the drinks had a mixture of different things, all covering the alcohol.
