Hey there Roomie!

'Only if you win'

Hi there! How did you like the last chapter?! I know I made it too clear that Eli didn't do much wrong. Lets hope Ari isn't too dense to see that!

<Not Edited>

Happy Reading

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ari's POV

It's been half an hour of me swimming around the pool trying to get away from Eli and my temper was close to hitting the roof.

Not only has he been chasing me for the past half an hour but he'd even been kissing Cindy just before that.

My face turns into a scowl when I think of them kissing. He just couldn't get enough, could he?!
I think bitterly as I make my way over to Tasha and the rest.
I wasn't ready to hear his explanation, if he had any. Why would he need to explain? We weren't dating or anything. We just kissed and I just happen to have a ginormous crush on him.
A crush that would fade away if it were up to me.

Eli was currently on the other end, panting from his rough workout of chasing me in the pool but I wasn't going to give in to him anytime soon.

Every time he reached where I was I'd swiftly swim to the other end. So far I'd spoken to every single person at every inch of the pool and I was sick and tired of keeping a smile on my face while on the inside I just wanted to punch someone hard, repeatedly.

Just looking at them kiss a moment ago broke my heart into pieces. I had to gather all the strength I had to get away from them at that moment.

It was all too much for me. Eli was too much for me. If him kissing another girl even before we even had a shot at dating gave me such a hard time, I wasn't sure I wanted to go deeper into those woods.

Letting it all out with a huge sigh, I finally reach the spot where my friends were doing jello shots at the edge of the pool.

My muscles were cramping with all the swimming and I sure as hell needed a drink.

I joined the guys who were cheering for Tasha and Natalie going against each other.

Everyone else were either playing pool volleyball, cannon balling, drinking, feeling up each other or watching the bolder lot of girls flaunt their racks. Of course the last one included half the guys here.

I momentarily glance at where Eli was and see him with his elbows on the edge of the pool, his back tense and head tilted up while he downs the glass of alcohol which, judging by his shaking it off after that, must have been pretty strong.

Great. Now he's getting himself piss drunk and I'll have to take care of him like I promised.

"And the winner is....... TASHA!" screams Mason, snapping me out of my thoughts.

I look at Tasha to see her doing a whole 'in your face!' sass neck at Natalie who then spills the rest of Josh's drink onto Tasha's head.

I roll my eyes when I see Tasha dip her head into the water to rinse off the alcohol and then dunking Natalie's head in after.

They were hooligans. Hooligans I loved.

I joined the game shortly after, resulting in me losing terribly to Shawn. The guy can drink like a fish!
My head was reeling after five shots and I couldn't drink anymore without the risk of puking it all out and humiliating myself.

At the end of three more rounds they were all beyond drunk.
Antonio had beat Mason by three shots and now he was trying to show us how to flip up like a dolphin. Watching him jump up in the water and try to flip over was hysterical.
I had tears pouring down my cheeks and everyone looked flushed with laughter.
After that demonstration which he claims would be impossible for us to master like he did, Antonio had perched on my back as we were currently taking part in a running race where the heavier partner had to be on the lighter partners back.
Since we were in the water it wouldn't be impossible to run while carrying a heavier load.
