Prologue

"Come on, Y/N!" Irene exclaims as you start making your way towards the Uber. You glance back at her and give her a soft smile as you shake your head.

"Irene, if I have even just one more drink, I promise you, I will blackout." You say while gesturing towards the bar behind her. She glances back before shrugging a shoulder and scoffing.

"So what? I can take care of you when you blackout." She states. "Don't leave yet, please." She pleads before her eyes slowly start to water, turning into her puppy dog eyes that are hard to say no to. Her plump lower lip juts out as she stares over at you.

"You say that now but I can bet money that you'll regret it later when you're waking up next morning, panicking when you see that I've snuck out and most likely went to the bar to hook up with someone." You state.

"Ugh," she states, the pout leaving her face and her eyes returning to normal. "I've offered to make out with you while drunk before so you wouldn't have to go searching for a stranger to fuck, Y/N." You smile softly as she says this before shaking your head immediately.

"Okay, one, you are as straight as a pole. Two, I don't fuck my friends and you're very well aware of the reasoning for that." You state before letting out a soft laugh. "Remember what happened with Moonbyul?" you question, reminding her of the girl who was previously in your friend group. Irene sighs while nodding her head slowly.

You had a drunken night one night with Irene and Moonbyul. You, being bisexual and ridiculously horny due to the amount of drinking that you did, obviously couldn't resist being around Moonbyul without trying to make a move on her.

Knowing that Moonbyul was also a lesbian didn't exactly help prevent you from hooking up with her either. You two had been egging each other on the entire night at the club. One thing led to another, and now, you two don't talk.

"Sex ruins friendships, Irene." You state as you let out a soft sigh and shrug your shoulders. "Besides, I have a game plan for tonight so I don't have to go out looking for someone to make out with." You state.

"Oh yeah? What kind of plan might that be?" Irene questions.

"I knew we would be drinking tonight so I took all of the necessary precautions."

"What kind of precautions? You already have a guy or girl waiting for you at home?" Irene teases while smirking over at you. You roll your eyes and shake your head.

"No, I bought a new... device." You say while lowering your voice.

"Device? As in, a sex toy?" Irene questions. You nod your head.

"Yeah, that's what they're made for anyway, right?" you question. She shrugs her shoulders before silently agreeing.

"Well, at least text me when you get home, please?" she questions. "I just need to make sure you get home safely since we're not sharing an Uber this time."

"I always do, Irene, you know that." You state. She nods her head before hesitantly allowing you to go but not before giving you a hug first.

Once you two pull away from the hug, you get into the Uber and make your way towards your apartment.

As you're in the car, you read the instructions for the toy while playing an audio from TikTok of a guy's voice while you pretend to have a conversation with him so the Uber driver doesn't start being creepy.

You then arrive at your apartment building and make sure to get safely into your apartment before letting out a soft sigh to yourself.

Nights going out used to be easier when you were in your early twenties. Now that you're in your mid-twenties, it's starting to get slowly and slowly harder to go out drinking. You notice that Irene's alcohol tolerance hasn't been affected as she grows. Yours, however, has lowered significantly.
