"hiiiii",Annie's drunk voice came from the phone,"why are you calling,aren't you like-upstairs or like somethinggg",of cource,she didn't even know I had left-
"I'm outside,small......grey car.i bagged us a ride",I say,looking over to James.
"Oh I'll be right outttt love"
Ofcource she's doing that thing when she gets drunks and pretend to be british-im HOPING she doesn't absolutely embarrass me Infront of james.
Annie stumbles outside,and I help her into the car.
"Oooooh-sick ride,man",she says,adjusting herself
James chuckles.
"And who might you be,driver?",she says from the back,eyeing James a bit.
Oh shit
I introduce him to save him from the awkwardness."Annie,this is james-i think I know enough about him to say that he is a "pleasant" young man."
He smiles at my description,"I try",he says
"James,this is annie-shes a little deranged at the moment,but I promise you-shes sweeter when she's sober"
"Nice to meet you",he flashes a little smile at Annie and starts driving.
"You smoke weed?",Annie asks
Oh god
"Wouldn't dream of it,captain",he keeps his eyes on the road but there's a sly grin plastered on his face
"I'm sorry about her",I say.
"No,it's um-straight to the point-i like it."
"Whatchu do in your free time when your not driving around girls?"Annie asks
AAAAAAH
He looks slightly taken aback,but answers back,"I play guitar,I bake,skateboard,um,don't tell anyone but Im also an active gardener".
"Hmmm-"Annie's mumbles
I laugh a bit.and then he laughs and then,we both start laughing like crazy.it was so fun.like that one quote from lorde,ribs:"laugh until our ribs get stuck"
"YOUVE GOTTAA FREIND IN MEEEE"
Classic drunk Annie.
We all burst into hysteric fits of laughter
........
We had just dropped Annie home-and he was parked outside my house,"well-i guess this is it",he turns to me.
I look back,"I guess so-this was fun,though?"
He chuckles,"It was.alot of fun"
"Yeah-id say we bonded,became "aquantainces"?"
He laughs,"yeah,definately"
"I'll see you around.........Jess mariano"
He smiles,"I'm gonna take that as a compliment,I love jess-but I was team logan"
"No way!Jess all along!",I say,smiling as I got out of the car,and spoke into the window.
"Denial is a river in Egypt!"
He drove away.
