Ch. 13: Drunken Walks

I laugh as I lean on Tiffany, watching as Sophia stumbles to get her lost shoe. We're all hammered and struggling to make it out the door to go home. The house is empty except for a few passed out teens on the couch and floor.

"I found it!"

Sophia holds up the shoe, letting us see it as she stumbles towards us. She collides with me as she laughs, gripping on to me as we move towards the door. I see Stu sleeping while leaning against the table, a bowl of ice cream in front of him. We stumble out the door as Tiffany starts to talk about waffles and pizza as she walks in a zigzag pattern.

"Hey..."

We stop, turning to see a smiling Billy making his way towards us. He wraps his arm around my shoulders as we start to walk again, Sophia and Tiffany walking ahead of us.

"Why don't I walk you home?"

"You think I can't manage?"

"Well...you are drunk..."

"So are you!"

I laugh as I shove him a little, causing him a o smirk at me in amusement. We both look forward as Tiffany starts to belt out Mariah Carey, Sophia joining in not long after. They stumble around, singing off key as we walk down the dark road.

I look up at the night sky, seeing the stars twinkling as the moon shines down on us. I smile as I watch the clouds slowly float by, barely inhabiting the view of the beautiful night sky. The arm on my shoulders tightens, pulling me closer as I sigh.

"It's so beautiful..."

"Yes...yes it is..."

I smile as I look up at Billy, seeing him already looking at me as we slow our walking. His eyes capture my own in an intense show-down, drawing me in as I struggle to hold onto anything that seems real. He hand raises to my chin, caressing my cheek as he leans in. I close my eyes as I feel his lips brush against my own, barely touching as our breaths mix.

"Sophie!"

We look up, seeing a laughing Tiffany standing over a fallen Sophia. She's laying in the ditch, laughing as she looks up at the sky. I pull away from Billy as I rush over, struggling to help her up. As I pull, I loose my balance an fall down right next to my hysterical cousin.

Tiffany falls down next to me, causing all three of us to laugh more. Billy comes into view, a large smile on his face as he bends down to help me up. After I'm up, he and I help the other two up and on the road as we continue on our drunken walk. I see my house up ahead, lights shining in the darkness as we stumble towards it.

As we get up to the door, Tiffany starts to slip away to dream land while leaning on my shoulder. I manage to unlock the door while still propping her up, listening to her groan. The door opens as I lead her in. Billy helps Sophia inside before leading her upstairs, Tiffany and I right behind him.

"Where are we taking them?"

"The room right next to mine..."

I grunt as I drag Tiff's dead weight up the stairs, wincing when she hits her head on the railing. She doesn't seem to do much more than groan as I climb the last few steps. Drool spills out of her mouth as she groans, walking with me towards Sophia's room.

Billy opens the door and guides Sophia in, laying her on the bed as I do the same with Tiffany. He walks out of the room as I start to take off their shoes and accessories, making them more comfortable as they both begin to snore.

I go to leave, bumping into the dresser as I stumble towards the door rubbing my side. Billy steps back in holding two bottles of water and a container of pain reliever. He sets them on the bedside table before shutting off the lights and helping me out the door.

"My side hurts..."

"Why? What happened?"

"I hit it on the corner of the dresser.."

He smirks as wraps his arm around my waist and pulls me closer, guiding me into my room.

"Want me to kiss it better?"

"No...it just hurts..."

He laughs as he opens my door, helping me over to my bed. He goes over to my closet, getting out a pj set before walking over to me.

"Stand up."

"Why?"

"Because I need to help you."

"But I'm tired..." I flop down, resting my arm over my eyes as the room begins to spin. "Why's it spinning..."

I squeal when he grabs my thighs, pulling me closer to him as I grip the sheets. I look up at him in surprise as he grabs my arms before he forces me to stand. I groan as he turns me around, unzipping my dress. He turns me back around, holding up the pajamas before giving them to me and walking into the bathroom.

I groan as I slip off my dress and bra, clumsily slipping on the white tank top and shorts before walking over to my mirror. I slip off my own accessories before stomping over to the bed and crawling in.

I get comfortable before under my comforter as I let the spinning continue. As I lay there, spinning in my head, the bathroom door opens and lights shut off before the bed dips from the weight of another. They lay down and cover up before wrapping their arms around me, pulling me close.

Sleep threatens to take over as I hear someone mumble something into my ear as they bush my hair out of the way. I smile as I hum, not understanding them or knowing what is happening, only that I'm tired and they are warm.

Sleep over takes me as they pull me closer, wrapping me up in an embrace.

"....night Chrissy...."
