"Hold still taehyung," I say stomping my foot while trying to put his tie on.
"I can't help it that you're so tiny so I have to break my back to get my neck to you," he spits back.
I yank the tie so it begins to tighten way to much on his neck.
"Anaya Anaya!!"
"Yes taehyung?" I ask smirking because I know it's too tight on his neck. He grins right before lunging at me and wrapping me in his embrace.
"Yahhhhh!"
He throws me on the couch and begins viciously tickling me. Just as I'm about at my limits Anna walks in.
"Come on cut it out you two," she says applying her lip gloss. I get up and smooth my dress back out and fix my hair. I run upstairs quickly and grab my heels.
"All ready?" Taehyung asks with his tie miraculously fixed. "Yep let's go!" I say excited.
•••
We walked in and a mixture of music and liquor from spiked drinks hit me. Anna hears one of her favorite songs and pulls me away to dance.
Peter and I (Anna's boyfriend) stand around for a second until I come up with the idea to get the girls drinks. Peter follows behind me where we end up both end up beside the punch table. I grab a cup and begin pouring Anaya some.
"You sure you wanna give Anaya that?" Peter asks.
"Yeah, why?"
"Because it's spiked man"
"What's that mean?"
"You'll find out soon," he says smirking. I shrug my shoulders and walk over to a very thirsty Anaya seeing that she's been dancing for a while.
"Here," I say gesturing the cup towards her. She grabs it and gulps it down.
"Can you get me more?" She asks while continuing to dance.
"Sure"
Our arrangement of her dancing and me getting her drinks while occasionally dancing with her carried on for some time. Eventually a slow song came on and I laugh because Anna and Anaya begin slow dancing together. They break out Into laughter and Anaya almost trips making her laugh even more.
"Come dance with me taehyung," Anaya says from the middle of the dance floor.
I walk over and she stumbles In to my arms. "Naya are you okay?"
"Izz finez taetae"
"Alright"
We continue to dance but she cant even stay upright and that's when it dawns on me what spiked meant. "Oh no," I say grabbing Anaya's arm "come on I'm taking you home" She looks at me with pleading eyes and I almost let her stay until she nods her head slightly like a child.
"Okay taetae we go home now"
Grabbing her hand I lead her through the crowd and out the door.
I follow behind taehyung as he leads me to what I suppose is his house. A burning sensation starts on my feet.
"Taehyung wait," I say while leaning on him to take my heels off. Suddenly my feet are no longer on the ground.
"Ahh taehyung what are you doing"
"I don't want you to get sick or fall down from the way you're stumbling," he says as he carries me and my heels.
I can hear a car slowly approaching Anaya and I. I look back and it's a cop car. She pulls up beside us and rolls her partition down "hello," she says cheerfully.
"Hi officer"
"Are you two all right"
"We're fine ma'am we just came from prom and she's been drinking and I didn't want her driving"
"Why are you carrying her?" Anaya looks at the officer and gestures her heels towards her.
"Ah I understand now"
Anaya smiles and jumps out my arms. She walks up to the car and leans over the drivers door.
"Can we have a ride in here?" She asks excited like a little toddler.
"Actually lil miss I was just going to suggest that I get you two lovebirds home safely"
"Ooh uhm we aren't dating," I say awkwardly while Anaya demonstrates a bird flying.
"Yeah yeah get in before I change my mind"
I scoop Anaya up and set her in the backseat before getting in myself. Anaya leans against me and begins to hum. I casually give the officer the directions to my home and she follows my assortments of various street names and turns. We finally arrive at my home and I pick a sleeping Anaya up.
"Hey!" The officer shouts before I walk away from the car. I turn towards her waiting for her to speak. "Keep doing what you're doing," she says. She sees the puzzled look on my face and adds to her statement. "Cherish her" then the car pulls off down my road.
I stand there a bit stunned but wasn't knocked out of my reverie until Anaya starts to wake. She jumps out my arms yet again and stumbles. "Whoa come on let's get you inside"
She giggles and walks up the steps with me. She dances around as I unlock the door. I walk on in and go to the kitchen to get some water.
"It smells of you taetaehyung"
"What do I smell of?" I ask laughing.
I suddenly feel Anaya's small yet full frame against my back. Her lips brush over my ear. "Yous smell of rose and mint.....I like mint" she says in my ear.
I swallow hard and turn around making her fall on my front. I try to push her off me.
"Noooo taetae," she says as she jumps up wrapping her legs around me almost causing me to fall. "Whoa," I yell.
"Taehyung can we please lay down I'm tried," she says slurring her words while snuggling into me. I carry her in my arms while she's still wrapped around me to my room.
Anaya stands up and goes to the bathroom and changes. She walks out in one of my tshirts that looks like a dress on her. I swallow hard yet again when she sits on my lap and puts the blankets over us. We lay there for sometime and even more time that passes the more I need her.
"Anaya?"
"Yes taehyung?"
"Look at me" she raises up a bit and turns so she's facing me and wraps her legs around me again.
I just can't help myself when I find myself leaning in to kiss her. Her lips connect with mine and a surge of energy runs through me. I know she feels it too when she leans into me falling into the kiss. Our kissing could have lasted for minutes, hours, days I don't know, all I know is I loved this feeling of euphoria.
---
I wake up with a blanket of heat trapping me and a splitting headache. I find that the source of heat running all over me is from tae who is wrapped around me like a vine.
"Tae," I mumble trying not to talk loud to sooth my headache. "Tae," I say a bit more urgent. I can feel him start to stir beside me. "Naya," he says as a response. It takes him a minute but he finally awakens and rolls over to face me.
"How you feeling"
"My head ah it hurts"
"Here I'll be right back" I see him rise out of bed with nothing on but some sweats. I whistle to annoy him causing him to roll his eyes and slip a tshirt on. He walks back in the room with very messy hair that I didn't notice before. Hm I wonder how that happened I think to myself.
"Here," he says placing a glass of water on the table and handing me two pills. "This will help the headache but you need to eat with it so I bought you leftover pizza you're favorite," he says smiling while grabbing the plate of pizza off his dresser.
"Thank you so much taehyung what would I do without you"
"I wonder the same thing," he says walking out the room and smiling.
