Hosie-Rock the Boat

Chapter 24

After a while the table has had a few drinks. Josie was still milking her drink not wanting to go over board and mess up one of the best nights she's had in a minute.

Hope on the other hand is trying to make the most of her night. She has a shot in her hand and her and Jed clink their glasses together before downing them. She sets it on the table before trying to sit down after feeling slight dizziness.

Josie chuckles and holds her hand to steady herself. "I think you've had enough babe." She says to Hope.

Hope giggles and her laughter is contagious making Josie do the same thing. Hope lays her head on Josie's shoulder. "You smell incredible." She says.

Josie chuckles again."Thank you. You smell pretty good too." She holds the auburnettes head with her hand to keep her there. "I don't think I've ever seen you drunk." She says while thinking back to all the parties they had at the mill.

"Yeah I don't normally get dr-unk." She hiccups.

Josie smiles. "I can tell. I wonder what kind of drunk you are?" She asks looking at the girl.

"She's probably the crazy kind." Lizzie suggests looking at her best friend. She's never seen Hope drunk either.

"Oh your probably right. The ones that show a different side of themselves, being all fun and free instead of being all mean and grumpy." Jed adds.

"She's not mean and grumpy." Josie says to him.

"Maybe not to you." He replies.

Josie laughs. "I'm not going to argue about that one." She massages the girl's scalp with her fingers. She hears Hope sigh and she smiles."She is a huge sweetheart with me."

"Awww you guys are being cute again." Mg says.

"Yeah... it's disgusting." Lizzie says.

"Shut up Lizzie." Hope says turning away from them and hugging Josie.The brunette doesn't mind of course, Hope's position is awkward because of the chair but she turns it to face Josie and makes herself more comfortable.

Josie wraps her arms around Hope's back holding her tightly. Hope moves her hands to the brunettes waist and sticks her face into her neck, she breathes in and out deeply loving the girl's scent.

Josie feels goosebumps cover her skin when she feels Hope's breath on her neck.

"Okay my bet is on angry or attention seeking drunk." Lizzie says observing the two girls.

Josie giggles and Hope smiles hearing the sound. She swears the room is spinning but listening to Josie's heart beat is helping her focus. She starts rubbing the brunettes sides innocently.

Josie squirms in her chair a bit, she doesn't want to show how surprised she is to everyone around her, so she does her best to be still.

"If Hope was an angry drunk she would have broken this table already." Jed counters.

Hope moves one of her hands lower until she reaches the slit in Josie's dress, the touching is no longer innocent. She's pretty sure the confidence she has is definitely coming from the liquor and her mind is telling her she's okay with that.

She draws little circles on Josie's thigh, and as she climbs higher she can hear the girl's heart beating faster. She smirks and pecks the skin that's on display to her.

Josie sighs deeply enjoying this but she doesn't feel like this is the best time for  it so she tries to ignore the girl. "I don't think she's any of those types of drunks." She says, her voice raises a little higher than normal.
