Set My Throat On Fire

"Hey Alex try this." Ashley says passing me a glass with some brown liquid in it. Ashley had CC had insisted we "celebrate" me finishing school and I guess that meant me watching them drink... I hesitantly take the glass and take a small sip. The flavour was indescribably horrible and it burned as it went down my throat. Just imaging someone using a flamethrower in your throat. I stare at him and stick my middle finger up as I drink the rest of my can of coke and another one to get rid of the taste. They all laugh.
"What? Do you not like it?" He asks innocently.
"What the fuck was it?"
"Whiskey."
Okay.

Note to self: Don't drink whiskey.
It burns.

After about ten minutes they all kinda forget I'm here so I silently walk off and go take a shower.
"Push your care, push your care, push your burdens aside. Erase everything inside and leave one thing on your mind. You only live once so go fucking nuts! Go!" I scream hoping the shower hides my horrible voice. I finish the song and sing/scream a couple others before getting out and getting dressed in black sweat pants and a random shirt. I dry and start straightening my hair.
"Aleeex they're my straighteners!" Ashley says sounding ever so slightly drunk.
"I know Ashie but I need them." I sat placing them down and walking toward the doorway Ashley is standing in.
"Is that all dad?"
"Awww are you not gonna let me in?"
"No because you need to go to sleep."
"But I'm not tired!!"
"Go on."
I point in the general direction of where he sleeps.
"But Aaaaalex." He slurs and pulls me into a bear hug.
"MAMA JINXX!!!" I yell and a fairly sober Jinxx comes running upstairs. He just stands there for a second before bursting out laughing. Andy, CC and Jake all come upstairs and laugh and take pictures.
"You fucking assholes." I growl.
"Aww c'mon Alex you love it really." Ashley says laughing.
"Someone. Do. Something. Before. I kill a man." I say struggling to escape Ashley's iron grip. He only holds me tighter and I can feel his unsteady pulse in multiple places in my back.
I move my hands.
Are you serious?
I could have done this ages ago! I twist my arms back and jam my thumbs into his sides. He yelps and let's go of me. Laughing I run into my room and use all my strength to hold the door shut from the five leather clad, slightly drunk adults who are trying to break my door down. They stop suddenly and I run and hide under my bed. Andy bursts through the door - probably breaking it off its hinges - and looks around the room.
"Alex?" He looks around. "Guys she's not there..."
"What!?" Ashley yells.
"Yeah..."
"Aleeex I'm sowwy!" Ashley says running into my room. I have to bite my lip really hard so I don't burst out laughing.
"C'mon Lex I said I'm sorry." He whines and sits on my bed.
"Lex huh? Strange name." I say and he shrieks and jumps up.
"Alex!?" He looks around completely dumbfounded.
"Boo?" I say crawling out from under the bed.
"Really?" He groans.
"Yep." I climb up onto my bed and sit cross legged. "Daaaad?"
"Yes darling."
"Can I pleeeease go to sleep now?" I ask, trying to look young and innocent.
"But it's only-" He looks up at the clock. "11:37."
"But I'm tiired!"
"And?"
"Goodnight dad." I get up and push him out of my room.
"Fine whatever goodnight Lex." He yells through the door. There are a couple of yells of "Goodnight" although I'm too tired to hear them. I change into my pyjamas lay in bed. I'm asleep as soon as my head hits my pillow.

((AN: So here's a random filler chapter... Well I got the inspiration from when my family was over at a friend's house and one of them let my try whiskey. Lets just say I downed a good few litres of water after. But yeah... I'm thinking of going on a little break. Not too long! Just so I can gather my thoughts about where I want the story to go. Speaking of which if you have any ideas please comment or message me or something and I'll maybe add it in :)
Thanks for reading (1k reads! Like seriously that's so cool!!!), voting and commenting my tacos <3
