BLAKE
It's Thursday, and there's a party tonight, Lauren's coming. I'm going to the kitchen, and I see that Alexa is doing five shooters.
-For who are those?
-Lauren.
She don't even look at me, and her tone is cold. Wait, the five shooters are for Lauren!?
-The five shooters?
-Yep.
Are you kidding me? You want her to be drunk? What the fuck?
-You want her to get drunk?
-I want her to feel good, ok? I want her to stop thinking, and by this, I meant you.
I frown. Who the fuck she thinks she is?
-What do you mean?
-I don't know why she likes you, but she needs to forget a lot this week, so yes, the five shooters are for her. If she needs it, she'll take it. That's it.
At this moment, before I have time to argue with fucking Alexa, Lauren's in the kitchen, with Charlie. She looks tired, very tired. And she tells to Alexa what I didn't want to hear.
-Tell me those are for me.
Alexa looks at me with a bitchy smile, and she gives the five shooters to Lauren. She drinks all of them. Fucking shit! She'll be drunk in a few minutes. Charlie takes Lauren by her arms, and she tells her:
-Come, I want to play to Beer Pong!
Are they serious? They really want her to be sick! What kind of friend are they! I shouldn't give a fuck, but damn, I can't! I'm following Lauren and Charlie but she doesn't even give me a glance. They play two games, Lauren is good to this game, but I would want her not to be. Lauren's whispering something to Charlie's ear, and I hate the fact that I can't hear, but a couple of seconds later, Charlie screams:
-EVERYBODY IN THE LIVING ROOM, TRUTH OR DARE!
Fucking shit, damn it!
We all sit in circle, but I don't drink tonight, I don't want to. If Lauren's sick, I want to be there. Hunter starts.
-So... Tracy! Truth or dare?
-Truth.
I can't stop looking at Lauren, she's so beautiful.
-With how many guys did you fuck with?
-I didn't count, there's too many.
I see disgust in Lauren's eyes. She coughs, and at the same time, she says:
-Slut.
Charlie's laughing, Tracy's giving a menacing look to Lauren, but she gives it back. Lauren's eyes speak to much.
Charlie's turn.
-Hunter, truth or dare?
-Dare.
-OK, hum...
She looks all around the living room.
-I dare you to grab this girl booty.
It's a random girl that I don't know in the corner of the room. He gets up, and he slaps this girl ass. Lauren's holding a beer in her hand. Stop drinking, Lau...
Lauren's turn.
-OK, Tracy.
-What?
They both exchange bitchy face, Lauren's good at this game.
-Truth or dare?
-Truth.
-Of course...
Lauren's rolling her eyes. I have a little smile on my lips, she's kind of cute.
-Do you know that you're a slut?
She takes a sip of her drink while watching Tracy right in her eyes. Charlie's laughing out loud with Alexa, and Nathan. Tracy looks attacked, but she can't defend herself, she's a slut.Lauren says.
-I'll take this as a yes. It's your turn.
She looks at Tracy with provocating eyes.
-Perfect. So, Lauren. Truth or Dare?
-Dare.
-I dare you to kiss me.
Lauren's schocked.
-I would never touch you, darling. You're not clean.
-Perfect, so kiss Alexa.
Is she fucking kidding? Lauren doesn't have time to argue, that Alexa takes her face, and gives her a quick kiss.
It's my turn, but I don't want to play.
-You can do it again Tracy, I don't want to play right now.
-Perfect, Blake. Truth or dare?
-Dare.
Tell me to kiss Lauren, please, I want to feel her. Tracy takes my face and she starts to kiss me. The only thing I hear is Lauren's voice:
-You're so disgusting!
I stop to kiss Tracy, it was disgusting, for real, and Lauren's going upstairs. I get up, and I follow her. She's going in the bathroom, so I get in with her.
-We need to talk...
-Do I look like someone who want to talk?, she asks.
No, you don't. You're drunk.
-Where's your toothbrush?
I frown.
-Why?
-I don't want you to talk to me, with some things from her in your mouth. I'll vomit.
-You're drunk...
-I don't care. You brush your teeth or you stay away from me, you choose.
I take my toothbrush, and my toothpaste, and I put it on the counter. She sits on the counter, she puts some toothpaste on my toothbrush, and she starts to brush my teeth. I just can't say no to her. After 2 minutes, she stops, so I spit. She puts some toothpaste on her finger, and she puts it on my lips. She really don't want anything from Tracy in and on my mouth. I rinse my mouth, and her face is right in front of me.
-Can I give you a little kiss? Just to make sure that my idea worked?
She makes her shy smile, and it makes me smile too. I take her head in my hands, and I give her a sweet kiss.
-Can we lay in your room?
Like I said, I just can't say no to her. I take her hand, and we're going in my room. She lays on my bed, I lock the door, because I don't want Tracy to come in like the other time, and I join Lauren. Like the drunk Lauren she is, she starts to talk.
-I'm still mad.
-Why?
-Right now I don't know, but I know that I'm mad.
I can't help, I laugh. She's a real girl. But I want to ask her something... Maybe just because I want to hear the answer.
-Why don't you like Tracy?
-You know why.
She lays on me, so I put my hand in her hair. I'm so good right now.
-Tell me why.
-You only want me to tell you, what other girls have already told you. "I love you, and I want to be with you."
I smile, she makes me happy, but she can't see my face. She holds me tight, and I continue to play in her hair.
-Well, you just tell it.
-No, I didn't. I told you what you might have heard a lot of times, but I don't want to be like them.
Lauren, if only you knew...
-You're not like them.
I hear her breathe, so I close my eyes. Then, I hear her soft voice.
-You know... I didn't mean to hurt you Saturday...
-What do you meant, then?
-Only that you're only attracted with girls like you. And we won't lie, you're a bad boy. So the girls you have are good in sex, they like alcohol, drugs, and bad things. And two "bad" rarely have a "good" future... Of course, it's because you both don't want to be in any kind of relationship. Plus, we couldn't tell you're fuck friend, because you're not even friend. That's what I meant, if you stay like you are right now, you'll probably have a girl like you, because that's what you want, or you won't have one, because you don't want to.I'm so tired, I'm not sure that I understand everything but I understand a lot.
-And you Lauren?
-Hum... I'm not a sexual person, I don't like drugs, and party won't be part of my life after this year. I want to have a good relationship, I want to marry someone, have a house, and a good life. But it's like you, only "good" boy are attracted to me. Anyway, everything's clear in my head. But my head turns a little bit, so fuck off. Relationship sucks.
I continued to play in her hair, and we both fall asleep.
