Wow. The street lights are blazing! Drew brought us to this fancy restaurant called Rote Bar, at the Hotel Sacher and the decor is so gorgeous.
It makes the surroundings seem and feel like you're in the past. According to Drew, we were lucky to be able to snag a seat in the "outside" area. I say with " ", because it is a separate box room with glass windows all around so we can actually see the street. Which, at this time, is still busting with people. The Albertina museum is just round the corner so the purple and pink spotlights from the building. Imagine if I could walk out of my house to meet this sight everyday... Hmm... All that was fun and all, but now we're back at home, playing games.
"Hera always blanks out like this. I told you," Eli whispers very discreetly to Drew. I barely catch what he says, but with his eyes staring right into mine as a tease, I catch it immediately.
"Hey! Watch it, idiot." Drew laughs. I see nothing funny about this situation.
"Mia piccolo gattina (my little kitty)," Eli sighs, grinning from ear to ear. And Drew chokes on his coffee. (A/n: If any of you know Italian, please do tell me in the comments it if it is wrong ^_^ thanks)
I reach forward and pull on his loosely tied tie to get his attention.
"What does that mean? I swear, if it's another term of endearment I will.... Ugh!" I see his smirk and that's the only answer I need. Jeez. I guess I'm forced to using the god awful google translate to get my answers later. Releasing my grip on his tie, Eli slumps back onto his seat. An even more arrogant smirk plastered on his face. Drew is now pale with bright red staining his cheeks. The cutie.
"Umm... Should I leave the two of you alone?" He coughs awkwardly. "It's like I'm third wheeling..."
"No! Stay," I shoot out. They both look at me shocked and Drew lifts both hands up in surrender. How did I end up getting myself stuck the these two? My childhood crush until I found out he was my cousin, and the guy I just met about a week ago...
"Hera! Want some apple cider? We've got 5 bottles," Drew asks, pulling 3 of them out the refrigerator. It has alcohol in it, but it's just us in here and we aren't going out... So I'll take a chance and try some.
"Yes please!"
- 2 and a half bottles later -
*SLAP* (the table)
I sit upright like I've been caught napping by the teacher. Only to see Eli shaking his head.
"Should we bring her to a doctor to get her some meds?"
I grin lazily, swirling around him, balancing myself with a finger on his shoulder. I feel wobbly.
"Hmm... I don't think we need to go anywhere. You can be my doctor," I drawl out, swooning in his arms. He gasps, placing a hand underneath my head to support it. "So... What seems to be the problem doc?" Eli chuckles.
"You, my princess, are very lightweight," he says, hugging me closer. "I didn't even know someone could get drunk from cider..." Eli mumbles to himself. I roll my eyes and push him away. Whining.
"You're boring. I want to play a game! Never have I ever!" The two buttheads laugh and shake their head. Then Drew goes to get some marshmallows.
"This is simple. If you have done the thing the other states before, you put a marshmallow in your mouth."
Okay. I love this game. I fall unceremoniously onto the couch.
"Never have I ever been kissed by a guy." I put a marshmallow in my mouth and Eli does too. In my hysterical state of mind, I manage to almost spit the marshmallow out.
"What?!" I ask. Eli shrugs. "It was a dare." And I start to giggle, rolling over.
This craziness carries on for a while. From all that, we've learnt that Eli is disgusting, Drew is a pig and has jumped in mud before, and many other dumb things. Great. My head now feels as heavy as a rock and I'm groaning on the couch.
"Ahhhhhh... I'm too cold," my voice comes out with shivers. Drew and Eli stare at me. Then stare at each other.
"I think that's enough fun tonight. Come, let's get you to bed." Eli picks me up easily with his beautifully gorgeous arms. And I grip onto his biceps. Mmmmm... He's fit alright. I hear them both chuckle.
"I like you drunk princess. You're nicer to me." Oops! Must've said that compliment out loud. I pout.
"Hugs! You're warm." I snuggle into his chest.
"Scratch the nice. When you're drunk, you act like a five year old child." From somewhere behind us, I hear Drew laughing.
"I ship!" He shouts. But we ignore him. All I need is sleep right now. My eyelids are heavy and I slowly slip into the darkness. Oh I'm going to feel like crap tomorrow...
