In Between

Chapter 4: That One Doesn't Have Herpes and That One Doesn't Have My Consent

They arrived at Parker's apartment building downtown.

"Guys, we're here," Kian said, stopping the van, "Parker, get up... we're here."

"Noooooo," she whined sleepily.

"Parker, come on."

"Fiiiineeeee," she said, getting up. She stumbled out of the Volkswagen and crashed into Kian.

"Stay up," he laughed, helping her regain her balance. "Like you, your friends fell asleep... We should probably go and wake them," Kian said walking to the back of the van and opened the door.

Mattheus was sitting in the seat with his head rested against the window, sleeping. Carter was also sleeping. She laid across the seats with her head in Mattheus' lap.

"Carter! Matt! Wake up, you lazy butts!" Parker hollered from where she stood at the front of the van.

Carter sat up, "What?"

"Mmm," Mattheus groaned, opening his eyes and yawning.

"Uh... I guess that works too," Kian laughed.

Mattheus and Carter got out of the van. Mattheus stretched, standing behind Carter. He casually wrapped his arms around her waist and aligned her body to his. He rested his head on Carter's, making his jawline show crookedly. "Where the fuck even are we?" He mumbled.

"My apartment. Stop touching Carter please. Makes me want to vomit. Carter is dating Enzo," Parker stated in a drunken haze.

"So what?" Mattheus smirked, "She's mine tonight."

"Shut up. You're drunk," Parker frowned.

"No. I'm right. You agree, Carter?" Mattheus said, kissing her neck.

"No..." Carter mumbled smiling.

"SEE?" Parker exclaimed.

"You're not right... you're Mattheus!" She laughed.

Parker face palmed, "Oh my god."

Kian laughed, "Woooow... You guys are drunk as hell. Lets go." They all headed up the stairs of the apartment building  to Parkers apartment. Kian unlocked the door and they all filed inside.

Mattheus walked in and tripped over the rug. "Oh. I guess I'll sleep here," Mattheus said blatantly from the floor.

"No, Mattheus, you're coming with me," Carter winked.

"Carter! No!!" Parker yelled.

Carter sat on the floor next to Matt, "Look at this poor innocent puppy... Just one night... pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee?" She begged as Mattheus sat up and made a puppy face.

Parker rolled her eyes and crossed her arms disapprovingly, "Innocent? Yeah right. With the amount of girls he's slept with, I'm surprised he doesn't have genital herpes."

"Please, please, please...?" Carter begged, "No sex. I pinky promise."

Matt frowned, "Aw. Porra."

Carter widened her eyes and glanced at Mattheus, "DO NOT SWEAR. FUCK IS A NAUGHTY WORD. EVEN IF IT IS IN PORTUGUESE... Ya fucking nerd."

He laughed, "You're cute."

Carter grinned, "Thanks." Then she began to beg again, "Please... just cuddles and kisses and stuff like that. We won't even annoy you... So you and the-random-guy-you-just-met-who-happens-to-be-hella-attractive-and-"

"His name is Kian," Parker blushed.

"Yeah, him. You two can go do whatever you'd like." Carter finished.
