~Korosu~
I woke up the next day around noon, and felt like my head was about to explode. It wasn't as bad as that one night though, yet I still felt terrible. My hair was down and messy, and I smelled of alcohol once again. Struggling to remember what happened, I sat up. What did I do? The memories slowly came back of the night before, and I felt like a dumbass.
~flashback(third person)~
Korosu had the bottle of vodka against her lips, emptying the contents. Surge was smirking, and Sasha laughed. Slamming the bottle into the bar, she raised her hand. "Done!" The guys around them all laughed, as the man beside her was only three fourths of the way done. "No fair, you must've had a smaller bottle!" "Oh yeah right. My bottle was larger than yours, all you're doing is being a sore loser!" Sasha drank from the small glass bottle in her hands, while surge held onto the can in front of him. "How in hell did you beat me? I call rematch!" "You're on!" Sasha turned to Korosu, and looked a bit concerned. "I think you should stop before you end up drunk Korosu." "That's what we're here to do, and it'll be fine Sasha. I can hold my alcohol." Surge shook his head a bit, while Sasha just looked down at the beer in her hand. The bartender handed them both a large bottle of vodka, and held a timer in her hands. "Alright, ready?" Korosu smirked a bit, and Sasha just watched. Surge intently watched them, and stopped caring whether they ended up drunk or not. "Go!" Korosu ripped off the top, and began chugging the vodka. The man beside her did the same, watching her. Sasha was smiling a bit, while surge chuckled. He's gonna lose again he thought. Korosu was about half way done with the bottle, while the man was slowly catching up to her. The bartender watched them both closely, and the man beside her began to turn a bit pale. She was about close to finishing when he threw the half-empty bottle down at bent over the side of the bar. She slammed her bottle down, and raised her hand up. "Done." She smirked again, while her friends began laughing. The man was bent over, trying not to be sick. "I swear, you've got a stomach of steel." "What can I say? I've had quite a bit of liquor." Sasha and surge both smiled at each other, as they all spent the rest of the night drinking and laughing with each other.
~end of flashback~
"God damnit." I stood up, leaning against the wall. I need to stop doing that. I stumbled towards the bathroom, and washed off the smell of alcohol. Thankfully, I wasn't sick this time, yet felt like a train wreck. After getting off the aroma of vodka and scotch, I got dressed and fixed my hair. I'll look nice today. Maybe Ashton and I could do something. Putting on some light makeup, my phone went off. The contact number was Sasha's, and I picked up quickly.
"Hello?"
"Hey Korosu. How are you?"
"Might as well have been run over, you?"
"Could be better. I called to thank ya for last night."
"No problem. As long as you guys had fun."
"Thank you. Well I've gotta go, need anything I'm here."
"Alright, bye."
"Bye."
I hung up, and set my phone back down. Putting the rings in my lip and some plain earrings in, I walked out into the main room. I'll just read for a while. I sat down on the couch, and grabbed the book The Fault in our Stars by John Green. He's an excellent author, and his work is lovely. I opened the book, and began to read.
~Ashton~
Walking down the road, I replayed the events from yesterday over in my head. The feeling of her cold lips against mine is a sensation that makes me excited. She's just so amazing, and I don't want to lose her. I continued down the road, as the apartment building came into view. I walked inside, and up the many stairs it took to get to Korosu's apartment. Knocking on the door, I heard footsteps emit from the other side of the door. She opened the door, and smiled at me. Her long hair appeared to be curled, and she was wearing some basic makeup, but not too much. Korosu was wearing a 5sos shirt, along with jeans and converse. "Oh, hi Ashton!" She smiled at me, and I began stumbling over my words. She's so beautiful. "Uh...hi." I managed to get out. Korosu chuckled a bit, and stepped aside. "Come on in." I walked in with her, and she closed the door. "So, just stopping by or was their something you needed?" I felt like I was asking her out all over again. "I, um...I wanted to see if you...maybe...wanted to go out today?" Korosu smiled, and walked over to me. She wrapped her arms around my neck, and I put my hands on her waist. "I'd love to Ashton." I smiled down at her, as excitement ran through me. "Please, call me ash." She nodded, and we both left. As Korosu and I walked down the road, she held onto my hand. "Hey ash?" "Yeah?" I turned to face her, looking into the sea of red that was her eyes. "I met two other killers the other day, and they are pretty nice people." "That's great!" I remember hearing that she didn't know anybody a while back, and I'm happy she's met some people she likes. "I'd love to meet them eventually." Korosu's eyes lit up a bit, and she smiled. "Okay! Maybe later we could meet up with them in the woods." "Okay!" I smiled down at her, and we continued walking.
~Korosu~
After Ashton and I went out to lunch, we decided to go meet up with Sasha and surge in the woods. To be entirely honest, I was a bit nervous about it and unsure of what would happen. We continued towards the woods, and I heard Sasha and surge arguing. Once we got closer, I saw them both bickering. Sasha turned towards us, smiling. "Hi! You must be Ashton! I'm Sasha!" I saw ash smile, and he waved a bit. "That's me! Nice to meet you!" "You as well!" She was her usual happy self, while surge seemed a bit annoyed. "Ahem." I looked at him, slightly glaring. He turned towards us, and looked at Ashton. "Hey. I'm surge." "Hey." I kept a hold on Ash's arm, and looked up at him. "Uh, well...we've got some work to get done." "Yeah." We both said goodbye and left, and I walked back to the house with him. Wonder why surge acted like that. I shrugged it off, and spent the day with Ashton.
