Barely Breathing

chapter 21

Reece’s POV still!

“Wow” was all I got out, she started smirking probably thinking I was a complete buttwipe but oh well. I shook my head and came back to Earth.

“You ready to go?” I asked looking away and running my fingers through my hair trying to seem like I wasn’t fazed by her sexiness.

“Sure am!” she said grabbing her phone and putting it in a bag.

We walked to the elevator and then went straight down to the lobby. I grabbed her hand and she looked at me gratefully that made me think maybe she felt the same but I knew it was just wishful thinking.

We got to the car and I opened up the door for her just being my chivalrous self, she gave me a surprised look.

“Thanks you Mr Mastin” she said with her amazing smile and slid in the front seat.

“You are very welcome” I said before closing the door behind her. I got in the drivers seat and plugged my Ipod in putting on my Guns ‘n’ Roses playlist. ‘Welcome to the Jungle’ started playing and I immediately felt at ease. Once it got into the chorus Taylor started to sing along, that took me by surprise to say the least.

“So I’m confused… I thought you listened to that hippie shit?” I said taking a quick glance at her then putting my focus back on the road. I could feel her giving me a look so I just smirked and kept my eyes on the road.

“Excuse me, my music isn’t hippie and it definitely isn’t shit! But I do appreciate some old school rock here and there” she said taking a breath after… must have got her worked up.

“Yeaah whatever… but seriously why didn’t you tell me you liked rock? I would have liked you so much better”

“Umm rightio then” was all she said… probably not wanting to start a play argument.

“So is this thing BYO or is it provided?” she said whilst on her phone I’m guessing on twitter, damn that girl is hooked already!

“BYO, so do ya wanna call into a bottle-o now?” I said changing lanes knowing her answer.

“Yes! But off course” she said giving me a cheeky smile…why? I felt my jeans tighten…if you get me.

We pulled into the bottle-o car park and we got out and made our way in. As soon as Taylor got in she went of on a mission coming back a short minute later with a 6 pack of Double Blacks… big night ahead Taylor. Well at least it looks like a happy ending for me.

I got a bottle of vodka and a 4 pack of Mothers… I had a feeling I was going to need all the energy I could get for tonight. I paid for Taylors drinks and mine and we made our way to Dion’s. She had already cracked one open and downed what I’m guessing was almost the whole thing…. it doesn’t make sense she is so little?

We got to Dion’s and I wrapped my arm around her as we made our way to the front door. It was already open so we walked in, it was out of control but I wasn’t complaining.

“Hey lets find the boys and then we can do whatever yeah?” I shouted into her ear because the dub-step playing was so fucking loud, she nodded so we started our search.

We found the boys outside well… only a couple. Mitch was off with some dude and Connor was in the middle of a make out session with some chick but we made our way over.

“Reeeeeeeeeeeeece” Brodon ran up and hugged me… he had been on the piss.

“Hey dude!” I said trying to move away from him, we said a ‘hello’ to all the guys and sat down by the fire. Taylor sat on my lap and didn’t let much distract her from trying to break the world record of most alcohol consumption in the shortest amount of time. I decided to intervene, sure I wanted her buzzed but I didn’t want to be holding her hair back as she puked her guts out.
