Today was the day of the premiere party. Sal told me that it's a huge party that starts right after the episode airs, at 10 pm. They rented a big party place with bars and loud music. Today couldn't sound more perfect.
I went downstairs after I woke up. Sal was still sleeping, probably because he knows it's going to be a long night. I decided to watch a little Impractical Jokers to celebrate the premiere of Season 5.
"Good morning" Sal sang.
"Haha. I can tell you're excited" I said.
"So excited. Jo, you have no idea how awesome it's going to be" Sal said.
"We'll see" I said.
"I'm like a little kid! I'm so fucking excited. Holy shit! It's today!" Sal jumped up and down.
"Calm down. Is this your last season or something?" I said.
His smile faded. "I mean, we were only signed for five seasons. It might be, but it's not the end of us" Sal said.
"I got you. I really hope you guys can continue" I said.
"Same, but I think it's getting a little old" he said.
"People love you guys" I said.
"I know, but I don't want to think right now. I just want to party!" Sal shouted.
"Okay, just don't drink too much" I laughed.
He laughed and then we ate breakfast. Later, we ate lunch. After lunch, we ate salads so that we would have appetite for the party.
At around 9 pm, I got dressed. I wore the sexy, short black dress with the leather jacket I bought at the mall. I also wore my black combat boots. I put on eyeliner, mascara, eyeshadow, light pink lipstick, and blush. This was weird, mainly because I never wore makeup.
I waited in the hallway to see Sal's reaction. I always had a crush on him, but now he was a father figure. I don't think he'll support me wearing a sexy outfit.
Sal came out looking stunning. He was wearing a suit and tie.
"You look so good!" I said.
"You look...beautiful. A little too sexy, but wow. If I was your age I would..." Sal said.
We were silent for a while after that. It was awkward.
"So we should get going" I said.
"Yeah. Let's go!" Sal said.
We jumped in the car and I sat in the front seat. The ride was pretty short.
We got to the place and walked in. Everybody's attention went to Sal. I greeted Murray and Joe. Bessy was standing next to Joe. She looked stunning. She was wearing a beautiful hot pink dress. Joe even matched her and wore a hot pink tie. Murray even brought a girl. I didn't know if that was his girlfriend though. I didn't see Q yet.
We went into the theater room and all sat down. I was sitting next to Sal and Jay.
The episode was hilarious. The challenges made the whole theater crack up. It was Sal and Murr's punishment and he had to jump out of a helicopter.
After the episode, we went back to the party room. The party room was now decorated and had food and drinks. There was music playing and the lights were off. Murr danced with some girl. She was definitely his girlfriend. Sal danced with Jay and Casey. Joe danced with Bessy, Milana, and some fans. Q walked in with a bleeding cheek. His hair was messier than usual, and he was limping.
"Q, what happened?" I asked, running over to him.
"Relax, sweetie. I just fell" he said.
"Oh, okay. I thought something horrible happened" I said.
"No, no. Let me go wash up. Then let's dance" he said.
He went into a bathroom and I waited around on the dance floor. The last time I was on a dance floor was the cruise, exactly one month ago. January 11, February 11.
"Come on" Q said. He dragged me to the dance floor.
We danced for a little bit, but then a slow song came on.
"Let's go to the photo booth" I said.
We walked over to the photo booth and the went inside. There had to be six poses. One was a peace sign, another was duck faces, another was funny faces, the next one was more funny faces, and the other were just smiles. We had to do one more, so he kissed me on the cheek. We stayed in the photo booth a little while after that.
"Did I mention how stunning you look?" Q said.
"Really, thanks. I didn't think so" I said.
"Well, you do" he said.
He put his hand on my knee. I put my arm around him. Before we knew it, we were looking each other in the eyes long enough to kiss. We made out for way too long, in my opinion. After two minutes of kissing each other, I heard the curtain to the photo booth open.
"What?!" I heard Sal scream.
Q and I both stopped kissing and sat up straight.
"Hey, bud" Q said.
"Hi, Sal" I waved.
"Both of you, get out here" Sal said. He sounded angry.
Q and I walked into a hallway and sat on the bench.
"Before you say anything--" Q said. He got interrupted.
"Seriously, guys? I leave for two minutes and you guys are fucking kissing. Q, I know she looks hot, but can't you control yourself? Jo, you control yourself also. You know how I feel about this kind of stuff" Sal yelled.
"Got you, buddy!" Q said.
"What?" Sal said, confused.
"It was a joke! Haha! We weren't really kissing! It was fake! We just wanted to see your reaction!" Q lied.
"Haha! You fell for it! Did you see your face?" I followed along.
"Whatever, guys. Sick joke" Sal said.
Sal walked back in the party room and left Q and I alone.
"So...nice job covering that up" I said.
"Thanks. I've obviously practiced" he said.
"Haha. So what was that about?" I said.
"I don't know. I was just feeling it. I felt something and went for it" Q said.
"Listen, can we forget this happened?Just think things are normal now?" I asked.
"Yeah" Q said.
We hugged and then we went our separate ways. I went to hang out with Murray after his girlfriend went to he bathroom. Q went to play with Milana.
The party was over at around 2 am, after the guys said their speeches.
I fell asleep thinking that I can't go to parties anymore. I do stupid things. First Leo. Now Q. Sal was right, I need to control myself.
