"don't look at me you've got a girl at home and everybody knows that"

"Let's get this party started!" Shane shouts, returning to the living room with a half empty bottle of Tito's vodka. "Shots for everyone so we can empty this bottle!"

Everyone passes the bottle around, each taking a swig until it's empty. Shane took the empty bottle and put it in the middle of the circle and then took the first spin.

It landed on Fiona Franklin. She had short brown hair and bright green eyes. Her mom was everyone's favorite teacher at their high school, so everyone loved Fiona in return.

Shane crawled across the circle to Fiona, whose face was flushed bright pink. He sat in front of her and grabbed the side of her face, pulling her in for a kiss. Fiona kissed him back, and when he pulled away, she had a huge smile on her face. Shane winked at her, and instead of returning to his spot, sat down next to her.

"Alright now," Shane said, silencing the ooohs and aaahs from the group, "who's next?"

Lainey threw her hand up, it was very clear that she had more than one shot. She reached for the bottle and spun it. Greg looked away, knowing it probably wouldn't land on him, but he didn't want to spoil her fun.

"Greg babe!" Lainey shouted, "It landed on you, it's meant to be!"

Lainey leaned over to Greg, who was now facing back towards her with a grin. He pulled her in and kissed her softly on the lips. Lainey kissed him back hard, even trying to slip in a little tongue, but suddenly she felt sick.

"I'm gonna be sick!" she yelled, pulling away from Greg and springing up from her spot on the ground. She ran towards the bathroom and Ella followed quickly after her.

The rest of the group laughed, and continued with the game, they were all quite used to Lainey's queasiness.

A few more rounds went on while Lainey and Ella took a quick break from the party to get Lainey cleaned up.

It was now Ruby Castell's turn to take a spin. She had the most gorgeous long, dark blonde hair. Her hazel eyes perfectly complimented her olive skin tone. Her mother was a model, so perfect was in her genetics.

Ruby spun the bottle while the crowd cheered around her. When it landed, the crowd went silent.

It landed on Greg.

"It's just a game guys," Greg spit out, "it's honestly not a big deal, i've done it before, Lainey won't mind."

"If you say so," Ruby responded with a flirty tone and a shrug.

Ruby crawled across the circle to Greg, he took a moment to admire her body. The way her breasts hung from her chest, the way her cheekbones rose from her face- He quickly realized what he was thinking was wrong, pushed it far out of his mind.

"Change your mind Greg?" Ruby said with a smile as she sat in front of him.

"Not at all," Greg replied, fighting away everything he was thinking about doing to Ruby.

Ruby grabbed his face and kissed him, hard. Greg couldn't help but kiss her back. He tried to fight away all the thoughts he was having about her, but he just couldn't. Ruby quickly took her lips away, and Greg was reminded that he was in a room, playing a game, with a crowd of people.

Ruby winked at Greg and went back to her spot across the circle. The crowd was silent for a long second but then quickly began talking again.

"That was a bit long," Toby said, leaning over to Greg.

"No man, she was doing all of it," Greg replied. "But hey, let's not tell Lainey about this...okay?"

Toby sighed, he always hated keeping secrets, but he also knew that Greg would do the same for him.

"Alright man," Toby replied, shaking his head, "your secrets safe with me."

Ella caught up to Lainey right as she had sat down by the toilet in the guest room. Quickly, Ella took a hairband from her wrist and tied Lainey's hair up. Almost seconds after, Lainey's bad decisions came up and into the toilet in front of them.

"It's okay," Ella said, rubbing Lainey's back. "Just get it all out."

"You are such an amazing best friend," Lainey said, turning away from the toilet for a short second. Ella smiled, and simply stated that she knew Lainey would do the same for her, while continuing to rub her back.

Once all of Lainey's bad decisions had come up, Ella helped her get cleaned up. She grabbed her toothbrush and toothpaste from her overnight bag and helped a, still very drunk Lainey, brush her teeth.

Ella then took Lainey's hair out of the messy ponytail it had been in, and fixed up her makeup a bit. Lainey then sprayed some of her favorite perfume, and they were good to go.

"I wonder how the game is going?" Lainey said to Ella as they both headed down the stairs.

When the two girls reached the kitchen, they saw that the group had now left the circle they had previously formed on the floor, and were now back to dancing around the living room.

"It must have gotten boring," Ella said with a shrug. They went into the crowd and searched for the boys.

They ran into them at the back of the living room,  Greg smiled when he saw Lainey and gave her a hug.

"Feeling better babe?" Greg asked. Ella saw Toby roll his eyes.

"Yeah thanks to Ella!" Lainey replied, then began dancing along with the music, Greg joined in with her.

Toby just stood in the corner, Ella didn't know why, but it seemed like he was unhappy with Greg. Ella went over to him.

"Everything okay?" Ella asked, leaning against the wall next to him.

"Yeah it's fine," Toby said, recollecting himself, "I just needed a sec...do you wanna dance?"

Ella laughed, "sure, why not!" she replied.

The two headed into the crowd and danced in the most awkward ways anyone had ever seen, but it put a smile on Toby's face, and that made Ella happy.
