Her. His.

Jason

I shouldn't have invited her to come with me. Absolutely not. Her scent. Her strawberry scent to be precise was driving me crazy. Had she dued her hair brown? No, no its none of your business.

I tried to focus on the task at hand, which was to get her drunk but it was becoming more and more difficult. Because of my morals you think? No, but because it was her who I had to get drunk.

It was aggravating really.

But I had to do it. I had to prove myself useful. I had to repay them. Even if it was through making a princess drunk so that she could embarrass herself infront of everyone.

"I didn't know you were such a lightweight."

"I am not a lightweight. I can handle my liquor." said Adora

"Uh huh sure you can. Thats why you have been drinking slowly from the same glass since the last 10 minutes."

"Well maybe I just like your company and thats why I am drinking slowly."

Ok well that was a sudden turn.
"Almost had me there princess."

She smiled. She was wearing a rosy pink kinda something lipshade and it was making her look the deadliest thing mankind could ever have.  I had to clear my throat to get red of the unwelcome thoughts. She was now staring at me.

"Huh why are you looking at me like that?"

"Like what?" I smiled

"Like you can't wait to get rid of me."

Only if you knew. I burst out laughing. "You finally solved the puzzle of my face expressions princess, congrats"

"Knew it. Called it PRINCE." She air qouted the word Prince.

"Come on, don't tell me you're only gonna have this drink or are you scared what you will let yourself do if you are drunk around me." I smirked

A blush creeped up on her cheeks. Hmm interesting. "Whaa...at No, why would you even think that!" And with that she immediately downed another drink.

I already knew that even the thought of me and her would make her go nuts and she would drink.

"Aw I am truly touched by how disgusted you are from the thought of us together. Thank you princess for being so kind."

"Well don't get your panties in a bunch Mr..." She startled slurring and I knew that the drink had started working but I certainly didn't feel like a mission was accomplished.

"Is it even appropriate for a princess to say such language and even slur in the same sentence. You truly have set high standards for royals all around."

"I'll have you know-"

"Adora what are you doing here?" said Jude making a swift entry.
And then came Darla, Anthony, Bridget, Raymond and Sarah or The Meanies like Adora like to call them.

"Yes Adora pray tell what are you doing here with Jason since I don't know maybe half an hour!?" said Darla

"Aw and here I was thinking that nobody was noticing me today" said Adora

"How is it even possible that no one would notice you gorgeous." said Carlo while keeping his hand on Adora's shoulder in a rather protective way while eyeing me.

"You flatter me Mr. ...wait who are you?" said Adora

"Come on stop joking Adorbs" said Carlo
I cringed. Hard. at his nickname for Adora.

"Woah get away from me Mr. I don't know your name."

She really was a lightweight. Even more than last year I guess.
We had met exactly 6 times before this and she had only drunk twice before me. The Cliffords, Adora's family had hosted this annual ball since 8 years. This being the 8th ball. I didn't go to the first ball or rather was not allowed to.

"You really don't know how to handle yourself at all Adora. Do you?" said Anthony instead of trying to help her. Sibling bond everyone!

"I am quite alright thanks for worrying You member of the meanies" She said while pointing a finger at Anthony.

I tried to hide my laugh while Carlo and jude laughed loudly.

The meanies all looked at each other and then at Adora with a disgusted expression. I don't know why but I wanted to stare them all off, I guess because I kind of encouraged Adora to drink? I realised I was somewhat being a hypocrite but it didn't matter to me.

"Here, drink some water Adora." Bridget handed Adora a glass

"Huh thanks" Adora downed the contents of the glass in a go. "Why is the water itch.. itchyyy" She dragged the last word.

I smelled the glass and it was alcohol.

"This isn't water Bridget."

"Oops sorry, guess I picked up the wrong glass by mistake" said Bridget

I was sure that it wasn't a mistake but I couldn't really blame Bridget at this point for making my task easier.

"No probsss Bridgy love you #forevah" said Adora now completely drunk.

"Haha um yea sure" said Bridget

"Come on Adora lets go" said Jude and held Adora from one side and as Carlo was coming to her other side, Adora turned around and said, "Lets dance everyone"

And at that moment I was sure of two things.

First, that my job was done and Adora would embarrass herself now.

Second, that now I was heading towards the dance floor....to enjoy her embarrassment or ...maybe to help her embarrass herself less.
