What Happened When We Met

Drunk Confessions

Narrator: Helena

I got my first one-week vacation today. Whenever you worked a night shift for a week and a half, they would give you one week to rest, but they could call you for emergencies every other day.
So Emma finally tattooed Roger, they spent about nine hours locked in the tattoo room, hopefully they were just talking and getting that tattoo done. Ronnie got home, his leg was still on the cast, and Alice didn't actually kill him, she cried when she saw him though, and to everyone's surprise, Ronnie was about to cry too. Alaska and Seattle finally told their parents that they're not only best friends. Effie was almost done with her movie project, so she seemed more relaxed.
"Well, most of us have something to celebrate, so why don't we party tonight?" Roger suggested once we were all sitting in the living room, looking at each other.
"Yeah, why not?" Alice smiled, she was getting excited.
"Fine, guys you need to go to the market!" Alaska said pushing Seattle, making him stand up.
"Okay" Timmy nodded and they all started getting up.
"Send us a text with what we're buying" Jimmy told us before getting out of the house.
"I'll do it," Effie started typing on her phone, "So we got alcohol, chips, peanuts, sodas, candy, uhhmm what else?"
"Helena, can you make salad?" I heard Emma say from the bathroom.
Effie looked at me and I nodded.
"Okay, so lettuce, canned peaches, tomatoes, raisins, chicken, corn, apples, mangoes, cheese, Italian dressing and ranch?"
"Wow, you impress me Effie" I wiggled my eyebrows and she started laughing.
The guys came back faster than we thought they would.
"They just want to party already" Alice said laughing.
"I'm sorry that we can't dance together baby" Ronnie said pointing at his leg and giving Alice a small kiss on her lips.
"Okay, Jimmy! You're in the kitchen with me" I grabbed his arm and pulled him up.
We went to the kitchen, I placed some bowls on the counter, we had to slice everything in squares and put them in the bowls.
"Why do you love salads?" He asked me.
"Not all salads, it's particularly this one, because it's a combination of sweet and salty," I answered him grabbing a piece of peach that he was slicing, "and peaches are my favorite fruit"
He smiled at me and shook his head.
"What? You don't like peaches?" I asked putting my hand on my chest and trying to sound offended.
"I do" he laughed.
Timmy and Effie came into the kitchen with some cups.
"Here, since you guys are too busy cooking, we brought you guys drinks!" Effie said with a cheerful voice.
"Thank you!" Jimmy told her trying to give her a hug but she ran away.
We started drinking and cooking. They took the shots to the kitchen so we could all play while we cooked.
Timmy was drunk already, I could tell because he was laughing too much and his eyes were closing.
"So, who wants to eat?" I said really loud so they could hear me, the music was high and everyone was talking and laughing.
Everyone got a plate and started eating. I was looking at them, I always got a feeling of satisfaction when I saw people eating my food.
I felt someone putting his arm on top of my shoulders. I turned to the right to see who it was.
"We did a good job didn't we?" Jimmy smiled and pulled me into a hug.
"We surely did, look at them" I smiled once again.
I let go of Jimmy's hug and poured myself another drink. Everyone finished their salad and they went to the living room.
"Let's play UNO!" Alaska shouted, she was drunk too.
"Yeah and when someone uses the '+2' and the '+4" cards, we get a shot!" Seattle took out the cards from the bookshelf and sat down on the couch.
"Let's go!" Effie dragged us to the living room.
We played for a while, we were all really drunk, we started dancing and jumping around.
"Let's play Truth or Dare" Emma suggested with an evil look on her face.
We sat down on the floor in a circle.
Emma drank the rest of a small bottle of vodka and she placed it in the middle of the circle. The couples didn't sit together so they could ask and dare each other.
"I'll go first" Alice offered. She spinned the bottle and she got Roger.
"Truth or dare?" She asked.
"Dare" he raised an eyebrow like trying to say how hardcore he was.
"Stand down in the middle of the circle and belly dance" she let out a malicious laugh. Roger rolled his eyes and completed his dare.
"That was hot babe" Emma slapped his butt and we all laughed.
Roger spinned the bottle and it stopped on Effie.
"Truth or dare?"
"Dare" she gave Roger a defiant look.
"Call Chris and ask him to marry you" he finally said after thinking too much, I thought his brain was going to explode.
"I'll go for truth" Effie chuckled nervously.
"Fine, who is the last person you kissed?" He asked almost innocently.
I looked at her and then I looked at Timmy. The blush on his cheeks was about to give him away.
"The last person I kissed was myself" she nodded and gave us a huge fake smile.
"We're being serious here Ef" Alaska told her.
"Fine, his name is Timothy" she rolled her eyes and grabbed the bottle. No one dared to ask her if she was talking about Timmy. She spinned the bottle, when it stopped on me, my smile dissapeared. I knew she was going to ask me something about Jimmy.
"Tell us about McSteamy" she giggled and I heard some other laughs. I felt a little relieved.
"Well, his name is Mark Sloan, he's the plastics surgeon, he's very good looking"
"And he took you for coffee yesterday, didn't he?" She was looking at Jimmy insted of me. I looked at him to and he was so serious, he almost looked angry.
"Yeah, he did Effie" I rolled my eyes. I took the bottle and was about to spin it, but Jimmy interrupted me.
"I'm gonna go get more drinks" he stood up and walked into the kitchen.
"Should we wait?" I asked everyone. They nodded silently. Jimmy came back and sat on his place. He drank a few more shots before we continued with the game.
We played for a little more. We were still drunk. For a moment I couldn't hear anything, I was just looking at Jimmy. And I noticed how when he laughed he would slightly close his eyes and tilt his head back. He looked pretty good.
"Who do you like?" I heard Emma's voice and saw her looking directly at Timmy. He turned to face Effie and she shook her head slowly.
"I like Effie" he said not looking at her.
Effie started laughing and said, "I like you too, but we can't be"
I was shocked, I never thought I would hear that coming from her, she was too drunk.
We ended the party. We conviced the guys to stay over, they couldn't drive like that.
We gave them blankets and pillows. They were going to stay on the living room.
I was in the bathroom brushing my teeth. When I came out, Jimmy was coming up the stair.
"Go to sleep zombie! You're drunk" I turned him around and started walking him back to the stairs, but before we got there he stopped. He turned around and looked at me.
"I want to tell you something" he whispered.
"Okay?" I whispered too.
"I uhhm," he stopped,"Never mind, good night" he hugged me tight, then without letting go, he looked straight into my eyes. My heart started beating faster when he placed his hand under my chin, lifting my face a little. He got closer slowly, like waiting for me to approve. I felt his warm breath against my lips, he smelled like mint with a hint of alcohol. I closed my eyes and felt his lips pressing down on mine, moving slowly together. He smiled with our lips still locked, which made me smile too. I stepped back and he smiled once again.
"Good night" and he walked down the stairs.
