Riley (MA chapter towards the end!! already i know)
4 Years Later
Burning liquid scorched my throat as I slammed the shot glass down on the counter. People cheered loudly as I quickly searched for a lime to ease the burn. The tart fruit washed over my sensations cleansing my mouth of the yucky tequila.
"Damn Matthews, how many of those have u shot down?" A built boy with dirty blonde hair asked. Even in my foggy state I recognized him, the one and only extremely hot Lucas Friar.
"Hey it's my birthday I'll have as many as I want." I smirked deviously. It was my 18th birthday and of course the only way to celebrate is to throw a monster party. I played it off to my parents as a graduation party, since my birthday was only a couple days after graduation. "I'm 18, were free from high school, and you look very hot tonight." I smiled as I threw another shot back.
He did look good tonight. He wore a plain white v-neck, but it was tight enough that you could see his defined muscles begging to push through. He covered that with a leather jacket paired it with some dark jeans and simple sneakers. His dirty blonde hair was sculpted perfectly and his green eyes seemed very bright against his tanned skin.
He flashed me a perfect white smile and chuckled in amusement, "Okay Riley, but you may want to slow down if you plan on remembering this night." He threw his arm around my shoulder and led me away from the alcohol cluttered kitchen.
He walked us over to the couch and plopped me down on his lap. My body immediately caved into his, partly because I wanted to and the other was because I could no longer sit up on my own. The alcohol had hit my body and I could feel the warm fuzziness spreading through me. My head rested lightly on his chest as I let out a small giggle.
"What's so funny?"
"The floor is spinning!" I giggled some more.
He shook his head jokingly at my drunk state. His fingers ran lightly up and down my back causing my breath to catch in my throat. Lucas and I had been hooking up all through high school. Or at least when he wasn't with his girlfriend Isadora, which was often. They tended to stay together for about a week then call it off for a month. So while she was getting a week with Lucas I was getting a month.
He was a nice guy and all but I didn't have feelings for Lucas, I just thought he was hot so it was a win-win for me.
"Look at me sitting with the most popular girl in school, and not to mention hottest." He sweet talked me. But he wasn't wrong, I did look good tonight. I wore a skin tight velvet red dress that showed just enough cleavage. High black peep-toe heels that made me long thin legs appear even longer. My long dark hair was in flawless loose curls and Maya did my makeup to perfection.
Speaking of Maya. "Oh god, Riles not again." She pouted as she strutted towards me.
"Peaches!" I squealed as I hopped off Lucas and into my best friends arms.
