We all walked to the bar together and immediately went to get drinks to get our mind off things.

"What do you want Bray?" Uriah asked me.

"Something good." I said and he nodded. He turned back around a minute later with a glass that had an orange liquid in it.

"It's vodka and orange." He said and I smiled. I began sipping it and it turned out to be pretty good.

"It's good." I said and he agreed.

"I know." He said and began drinking his own drink.

"Hey guys." Someone said from behind me. I turned around to see Zeke and Four standing there with beers in their hand.

"Four." I said and pulled him into a hug.

"You alright Bray?" He whispered in my ear and I nodded.

"I'm fine." I whispered back and he let go of me.

"Let's go dance!" Liv said as pulled on my hand. I let her drag me along and we walked to the dance floor. We as in me, Liv, Four, Zeke and Uriah. Lynn stayed back to talk to other people at the bar. We danced to the middle. I stood mostly with Four and Uriah and we were just having a laugh the whole time. If only Matt was here with us. We danced and drank all night then headed back to Zeke's apartment, as usual.

"Zeke you got any booze?" I slurred and Liv giggled.

"Yeah go check the fridge!" He said and I nodded before stumbling into the kitchen. I was so drunk.

"Yeah I found it!" I shouted to the others and they started cheering. I picked up a few bottles of stuff and checked the cupboards for anything else and found a few more bottles of other stuff, then took it through to the other room.

"Bingo!" Uriah shouted and I chuckled. I handed them all a bottle and I began drinking mines.

"Woo! Party starts!" I shouted and everyone broke out in laughter.

"I might head back guys, it's late and I'm tired." I said drunkenly.

"I'll come with." Liv slurred but I shook my head.

"You stay here. I'll be ok." I said and she nodded.

"See us when we all have headaches!" I shouted from the front door then slammed it shut. I stumbled through the compound and eventually, I didn't know where I was. I looked out for anything familiar but didn't see anything. After a while I came across someone walking down the hall.

"Brayden?" The person said.

"Yeah that's my name. Hah. What can I do for you?" I said and started giggling.

"Are you drunk?" They asked me and I nodded frantically.

"Yeah I think so." I said and they chuckled slightly. I looked through my hazy eyes to see a tall, dark haired man standing there.

"Who are you?" I asked and scrunched up my eyebrows.

"Um, Eric?" He said and I giggled.

"Eric? My boyfriend?" I said and laughed again.

"Uhm, whatever." He said and I could see the blush on his cheeks.

"I'm gonna take you back to mines." He said and I nodded. He warped and arm around my waist and I clung onto his shoulder. We stumbled through the hall together and eventually made it to his apartment.

"I'll get you some water." He said and sat me down on the couch. He walked off to the kitchen and returned a minute later with a glass of water for me.
