I looked at the almost empty bottle on my counter. I reached for it again when the door flew open.
"Stop right there! This is the biffles police! Take your hands away from the ticking time bomb that will be your mistakes and regret in the morning! This is a citizens arrest!"
"Go away Ariana."
"Come on Ella! That was funny. You really must be drunk as balls."
Ariana entered the kitchen and snatched the bottle before I could grab it.
"Give it back Ariana!" I tried to stand but staggered.
"Alright so this is what we're gonna do." She took the bottle over to the sink and opened it.
"Don't."
"I'm gonna do it. So sit down." I sat down as she dumped it.
Then she went all over the house taking every kind of alcohol and dumping it down the drain or out windows. Then throwing the bottles and cans into the recycling bin.
Ariana then sat next to me with a water bottle and tossed it to me. After it hit my chest and landed on my feet, I picked it up and drank until I couldn't breath.
"Well someone's gonna have to pee later." Ariana laughed at me.
"I still hate you."
"Well you'll have to deal with me for another night. MOVIE NIGHT! You need to sober up."
"I'm not drunk!"
"Well you are tipsy."
"No I'm not."
"What ever. Harry Potter marathon?"
I'm silent. I did feel a little dizzy. And I do love Harry Potter. So why not?
"You know me too well."
"Yayyyy. Go put it in and I'll make popcorn!"
"You love popcorn too much."
"I know!!"
I walked into the living room and looked for my giant stack of Harry Potter movies.
"Little butter or a lot of butter? A lot right?"
"You know it!"
"That's what friends are for! 😁🙃"
"I know! I'll remember next time I try and forget!"
"You better."
Remember...
Remember...
