Noise . Too much noise .
And too much alcohol.
Going inside the bar I see lots of young people like us , talking laughing and drinking. Having fun in general.
" Wow it's really crowded for a bar " i shake my head
" Well it's a Saturday night " Alex says " grab my hand we don't want you to get lost "
I dart my eyes at his open palm that's waiting for mine to close , and take his hand immediately.
He is right. We don't want me to get lost in here .
The smell of pot fills my nostrils and I immediately know that me coming here was probably a bad idea .
I've never done drugs . Hard or soft .
" Hey there's a pool table here " i state " I wanna play "
" I'm gonna teach you " he speak loud through the music and the people we're passing
I suddenly see the guys sitting in a round table that's big enough to place their drinks on .
" I see them " I say I start leading the way
As we're getting closer Jacob eyes shift to me and then to Alex's and mine interlocked hands . I immediately let go of his arm and take a faster step ahead suddenly feeling weird about it .
" Big table I see " I say as I rest one arm on Mikes shoulder
" Sit down , it's big enough " Mike points to the empty seat besides him , Alex sitting next to me
" What did you guys get ?" I throw my head a little bit up to peak at their drinks
" Vodka cranberry " Jacob replies, him being exactly on the opposite side of our table infront of me
I nod at him as I keep my eyes on his
" Is it good ?" I ask him tilting my head a bit
He takes a sip out of it still looking at me and then puts it back down
" Very good " He nods back at me
I stand there watching his lips licking each other for a moment and as I open my mouth to reply but Alex cuts me off .
" You want me to go and grab you one and the go for pooling?" He asks
I turn my gaze at him , nodding.
" Take it easy tho " Mike says from beside me as Alex gets up from his seat
" Like you guys do ?" I scoff dragging my eyes to all of them
" Im older " Mike states
" Hey Jacob how the team going " Troy asks
" Fine , we are going to finals this month or the next one " he says placing his arm in the table , resting his head on is thumb and pointer finger
" Yeah my boy is the best at the game that's why he is the captain " Mike pounds his shoulder
Yeah for sure .
Jacob's eyes go straight to me clearly wanting to get a reaction of me but I don't do him the favor.
" Here's your drink " Alex hands me the liquor
" Thank you Alex " I smile to him taking a sip
The alcohol going in my mouth tastes sour at the beginning but then leaves a sweetness behind .
Now I understand why you drink it , Jacob. It's just like you .
" Its very good " I nod
" I know right ?" Mike says in an existing tone
