BURN IT:

{ misspelling while speaking intended }

I was in a cubicle at a night club in Charleston surrounded by chatty girls fixing up there make-up (drunk). I was drunk myself, more than I should be.

"Hazz anyone got a tamp- on" I slurred loudly asking anyone in the restroom.

"Here girl!" I see a hand under the stall with a wrapped tampon, I take it and thanked her. I fixed up my makeup in the best way I could while the room was spinning and prayed myself with Saint Laurent perfume that wasn't mine.

I walked out with Madelyn shortly after, "awh your on your period?" She pitied me by gently stroking my shoulder.

I stopped walking for a second "No, I don't even know why I asked..." I scowled confused why I did that but we both laughed hysterically, things are ten times funnier when your wasted, I swear I laughed so much I almost pissed myself. "Fuck why'dz I do that," I slur.

"I don't know but I loved it."

"I could use another drink, you?" I walk towards the bar about to order another round of shots to our table.

"Ye just order a round of tequila, again" she shrugs lifting the one side of her lip and making her way back to the table.
I ordered the drinks and they came within the first few minutes. Everyone thanked me for the round and we all played a drinking game, going around the table we asked questions and if you didn't want to answer you had to take the shot. I was asked a kiss, marry, shag between the boys.

"ooo that'za good one" I slurred using my pointer finger to point at Mariah who asked the question.

I looked at all the boys who looked intrigued to hear my answer, all heads where perched forwards with their knuckles resting under there chins, "ye, no" I licked the salt from my hand then after taking the shot and started looking for the slice of lime "where's th-" Drew was holding the rim of the lime with his front teeth with a huge grin on his face, his eyes were drowsy from the amount of alcohol he had consumed.

The group cheered loudly which caught attention of the other tables, I stood from the booth and made my way to drew. Straddling his lap I planted myself on his jeaned thighs with both my legs at each side of his hips.

What the fuck was I thinking! Well I wasn't, I really wasn't and who's idea was it to give me this much tequila?!

The group got louder and louder, I took the lime from his mouth lightly brushing his lower lip, I sucked on the lime and placed it were the rest of the eaten-slices were.
I took a quick glance at Drew as he watched me do so with a loud clap coming from the group. I sat back at my seat and I could feel how rosy they were I tried wiping the smirk of my face but I couldn't and neither could drew.

•••

I soon rummaged through my bag, I was dying for a cigarette. One of the reasons I don't drink, makes me want to smoke twenty packets. I didn't even like them they tasted like absolute shit but I liked the buzz. I was still at the bar with the group but everyone was already occupied so I wondered off outside to a smoking shed.

"Ah, shit" I mumbled to myself. I felt a tall presence stumble behind me "here" it was no-other-than drew himself, he passed me a lighter, which is what I had forgotten, I lit up my cigarette and gave it him back. "Thanks" I nodded.

He looked hot in his dark-denim jeans and dark green jacket, but maybe that was the alcohol?

"It's not good for you, you know" he implied, "kills you" he says dumbly taking a puff of his.

I look at the cigarette in his hand and back up to him. I look at it ironically and chuckle, "hey, I'm aloud to" he laughs.

I cross my eyebrows in confusion "and I can't!" I ask through laughter. He nods his head side to side blowing the smoke from his thin lips and a cheeky grin on his face. I shake my head in disbelief, I know he was joking but it was cute how he was looking out for me.

We finished our cigarettes, throwing them on the floor and stamping on it with my heeled shoes, and made our way back to the group "ew you stink" Maddison scowled.

"Awh thanks I love you too" I grinned holding my palm to my chest sarcastically and throwing my arms around her shoulders pulling her into a tight hug just so she could smell every bit of that cigarette.

She stands from her seat and sniffs me like a police dog, she pints her index finger at my chest with narrowed eyes, "oh my g- you've been smoking."

I gasp in sarcasm "no way, really?" but she didn't think it was funny, she raised her eyebrows with disappointment "I'm a grown adult", scoffing, she sits back down next to her girlfriend and sipped her drink.

They tried guilt tripping me but I wasn't sober enough to pay attention to them, but I was gonna pay for it tomorrow. I didn't see the big deal, I've smoked since I was 15 and I'm fine, it hasn't affected me except a minor chesty-cough. But I just wanted to enjoy my night without it feeling like having another lecture from my mum about lung cancer.

So I tried enjoying my night. But instead ended up on the bathroom floor with no help.
