The Backup

Chapter 21

Drunk and Partying

"POOL PARTY!!!" Jalen yelled before doing a canon ball.

Everyone watched as the young boy jumped from the highest point in the building and into the water. Willow was definitely not happy about it, so as soon as he resurfaced.

"Jalen be careful you idiot!" Willow barked at him and he just ignored her.

On the other hand, Gabriella approaches Normani. Normani was getting an alcoholic beverage to quench her thirst as well as to get herself tipsy for the night ahead. She likes partying, people would assume differently since she was so quiet and to herself but they were fun.

"So how was the date?" She asks Normani who was sipping her drink.

"Good, I don't like Ella as more than friends though." Normani reveals to the younger girl and Gabriella fake gasps.

"I thought this was basic knowledge." She teases and Normani laughs with her.

"Shut up." She shakes her head, still with a bright smile on her face.

As they continued to laugh and make fun of each other, a loud mouth made an announcement for a certain someone.

"Golden Warrior in the HOUSE!!!" Kehlani yells and everyone eyes went to Dinah who was actually dressed in actual normal clothes.

"Damn." Someone says and everyone began talking.

She was in casual wear but people were not use to it. It was either uniform or shirtless with the uniform or shorts. There was no in between except now.

"Can you not be so loud for once?" Dinah asked Kehlani who laughs.

"You say that as if you're not a loud person yourself." Kehlani fake punches Dinah before turning to Gabriella who has Normani behind her.

"We are organizing a game, wondering if you two are joining?" Gabriella questioned the two.

"Sure." They say at the same time.

Making their all way towards the lounging area of the pool, a lot of people were already seated and situated or getting seated and situated. Of course, someone spoke about Dinah's presence.

"Dinah? Didn't know you were coming." Zendaya eyebrow rose seeing Normani standing next to her.

"I mean, I decided to have some fun. Been so focused lately that I needed to relax a bit." Dinah explained herself.

"Right, let's play truth or dare." Zendaya basically demanded and Gabriella was going to speak but decided against it.

Everyone looked around, wondering who was going to go first or not until Dinah decided because she was getting bored.

"I'll go first, truth or dare Ella?" Dinah asked and Ella gave Dinah a soft smile.

"Uh truth?" Ella responds.

"Damn, I don't have one." Dinah shrugged. Everyone looked at her with confusion on why she even asked, but they immediately gotten bored with the game. It was classic but definitely not for the mood. "Let's do something different actually, let's do a truth or dare but everyone has to do the action or answer." Dinah suggested before sitting down.

"I agree, be vague on your questions if you ask a truth." Gabriella instructed and everyone nodded.

They were now thinking of a question to ask but Normani was first to asks hers because it was the most fun and pressuring to answer.

"Alright I'll start, who does everyone like as more than a friend?" Normani smiled innocently while sipping her drink.

"Oh goodness." Kehlani huffed.
