A Fool's Revenge

Drunken Confessions.

"Jay!" they cheered in scrambled words. I smiled and hugged them all. God, I missed them so much and it had literally only been a few weeks. I loved everyone I met this summer but these guys really helped me forget about a lot of things this past summer and I loved them a lot.

"How are you guys?! I missed you so much!" I squealed as if i was that excited little girl going to see her favorite band for the first time.

"It's literally been three weeks, chill baby girl." Balz chuckled and wrapped an arm around my shoulder pulling me into a side hug and I just rolled my eyes.

"Whatever. I still missed you guys. How's the album coming?" I asked as we all walked through the kitchen, me picking up the now cooled food and walking outside.

"It's pretty badass, if you ask me." Ryan said with a grand smile. As we got closer to the rest of them the conversation slowed as they greeted each other with 'bro hugs'

"So, how are you, Jayme?" Devin asked with a cocky smile as his eyes traveled from me, to Mike and back.

"Pretty good, for once...." I cut myself off from talking about all the things I thought about when I was alone at night. I wanted them to know I was happy without having to worry about little ol' me.

I wanted to say that my head was fucking with me recently but I refrained because I was happy... my mind was just playing tricks on me a lot.

"Jayme!" Ricky yelled while waving his hand in front of my face.

"huh? What?" I smiled and looked at him.

"Where's the alcohol? I know you're not holding out on me, right?" he chuckled and I got up, motioning for him to follow me. We got into the kitchen and I grabbed my stock pile of assorted booze. I was about to walk out when he stopped me.

"What's wrong?" he asked quietly as if someone would really be able to hear us in here. He and Chris had this thing about reading me like the largest print open book. I know I couldn't lie to him or Chris so I just didn't say anything, I just shrugged.

"Jayme..." he looked at me like a father who caught his little girl coming home far past her curfew.

"Dammit, Ricky! Can't I just say I'm happy and have you and Chris not question me about it?" I sighed frustratingly. He looked at me like I asked the stupidest question in the world.

"Nope. You only zone out with a frown on your pretty little face when you lie." He crossed his arms over his chest and just stared at me waiting patiently for an answer.

"Well, I wasn't lying; I just didn't say all of it. I don't want you guys to always have to worry about me. I am really happy but my mind has just been fucking with me." I sighed and leaned against my counter before grabbing a cup and making a drink. Drink the pain, frustrations and stress away, right?

"Oh, Jay, We're always gonna worry about you. To most of us, you're like a little sister. No matter what we're gonna worry. We're all glad you're happy though." he smiled then left me standing there in the kitchen without another word to say. I sighed angrily and walked out with my drink. I sat on my boyfriend's lap as Jaime lit the fire. I snuggled up and he wrapped his arms around me.


I watched the fire intently. I swear I was the slightest bit of a pyro because whenever a fire was near, I got mesmerized by it and wanted it to grow. I watched as the flame flickered and changed directions while the guys carried their own conversations amongst one another. I didn't bother paying attention because all I wanted was to be cuddled up and cozy with a drink in my hand.

Dave and Casey soon showed up and made themselves comfortable, acquainting themselves with the people they didn't know and sparking new conversations.



I was on my fourth drink and wasn't able to comprehend anything. All I knew is that I was content. I got off of Mike's lap in a light stumble and made my way inside to get a glass of water. I knew someone was following me but I couldn't tell you who, even though they were right in front of my face.

"I know he's going to hurt you, Jayme. I don't get why you chose him . well, I do but I just want you to know that I will always love and care for you." The words were followed by a slow, emotion fill, kiss. I stumbled back from the pressure put on my body and I tried to blink to focus my blurred vision but whoever just confessed their feelings, had left.

I shook it off and walked back outside a little more sober now but still tipsy enough to stumble in the grass. I said my goodnights and told Mike to make sure whoever stayed knew where everything was before going back inside and trekking up to my room, taking my pants and jacket off and curling up into my bed.



I drifted off to a wondering mind, curious as to who could have kissed me. I knew the voice but I honestly couldn't put a face to the voice. I soon could feel someone's arms wrapped around me and hot breath on my neck.


"I love you more and more each day, Jayme." Mike said with a feather-like kiss to my neck and cheek before he sigh contently and fell asleep. I was close behind him but my mind was still in a tizzy. I finally gave up and curled my body to fit into my boyfriends' and drifted off to the mysteriousness that was the darkness of my mind.
