Burning Love

Part 23

As you guys arrived you chose a booth and got settled in. You had told Bruce before hand not to worry about giving you a ride since you'd be with your friends

"Dang, it's pretty nice in here" you said as you looked around

Each booth was pretty spacious. It was an inclosed room with a small stage and a tv beside it to read the lyrics and in front of the stage there was a table against the wall with seats and beside that a huge couch and a few bean bags on the floor

"Alright who's singing first?" Ryota asked

"Ooh I will I will!" Yumeko said as she jumped on stage and grabbed a mic "Ryota why don't you go get us all some drinks while I practice a little?" She asked as she took off her blazer

"We're drinking?! I didn't plan on drinking" you said as you sat up from the couch

"Don't be a scaredy cat, y/n, come on" Yumeko said as she tossed a mic to you

"I'm not gonna sing right now! Maybe after a few drinks" you said with a nervous smile

"That's more like it!" Yumeko said clapping her hands together

"Are you gonna drink?" You asked Mary as she sat beside you

"I don't see why not" she said throwing her legs on your lap

As Ryota came back he was holding a bottle of absolut vodka

"Damn Ryota you plan on getting straight to the point, huh" you said as you helped him fill the shot glasses

"I don't like the taste of beer so I'd rather get this down all in one go" he said

"Baby" Mary teased

"Alright everyone come here they're ready" you said as you grabbed your shot from the table "here's to a good time!" You said raising the shot and bringing it down to your lips swallowing it quickly with little to no reaction "WOOH!"

Ryota could barely get it down while Mary and Yumeko finished theirs shortly after you and put their glasses on the table

Yumeko got back on stage and chose her song and started singing

"Stop callin' stop callin' I don't wanna think anymore! I left my head and my heart on the dance floor" she sang

"Oh my gosh! I love lady Gaga!" You turned and told Mary who was sitting next to you

"I'm gonna get another shot. You want one?" Mary said as she got up

"Wow Mary, I didn't think of you as a drinker" you said as you got up behind her

"I can't stand the way she looks at you" she said as she pored two glasses

You looked up at Yumeko who was singing her heart out to telephone by lady Gaga staring at you seductively the whole time

"Sheesh yeah that's kinda scary" you said as you grabbed the filled glass and downed it really quickly "wooh holy crap. It doesn't get easier the second time"

You and Mary sat back on the couch and watched Yumeko sing and dance on stage

"She's surprisingly really good" you told Mary and Ryota

"I'm not surprised. She's good at everything" Ryota said dreamily

"What a weirdo" Mary said quietly beside you

Yumeko sang a couple other songs and now you started to feel the alcohol kick in. You weren't drunk but you definitely weren't completely sober

"How do you feel Mary? Are you feeling it yet?"

"Nah imma get another one"

"Fill me one too I'll be there in a sec. You want one Ryota?" You asked the boy next to you

"Huh? yeah, yeah" He said not paying attention watching Yumeko the whole time

You mouthed up to Yumeko 'want one?' To which she nodded

You gave her a thumbs up and walked to the table

"Alright we're all taking one" you told Mary as she poured the shots

As you took your shot with Mary you walked to Ryota and handed him his

"Hmm what's this? Why'd you bring me another?" He asked as he looked at you puzzled

"you said you wanted one" you told him as you gave him the glass

Yumeko came down and took the other shot in your hand "come on Ryota don't be a baby!" She said as she finished her shot

"I'm not a baby" he said as he snatched the glass and drank it

Within seconds he started coughing and lightly smacking his chest to which the rest of you laughed
