Hollands POV - Saturday Midnight

My head was buzzing. We've taken at least 4 shots each. And now I'm on my third gin and tonic. Strong one too.

I haven't been this drunk since the first time me and Dylan kissed. And I felt like I was about to do something reckless... again.

Why is it that decisions you make when you're drunk feels like the the right thing, but when you're sober they seem so.. not?

All I can think of is wrapping my arms around Dylan and never let him go.

He is laughing, Crystal told him something funny. Tyler is also laughing.

It's like everything is happening in slow motion. Like I'm watching them in slow time and they can't see me.

We're all sitting around a table now, keeping the shots coming. Who would have thought we would have such a good time after all that happened?

I smile a little bit. It's almost like the alcohol is giving my heart a break for the night. (Que the Demi song, lol)

And I didn't mind, I kept looking at his beautiful laughing face. In slow motion.

His cute dimples and moles. His stubble of a beard and his crazy spiked hair filled with gel.

His black long sleeved shirt which looks so sexy on him. His perfect big hands holding a glass of beer.

The glass of beer touching his perfect rosy pucked lips.

I wanted his hands over my body and his lips touching my own. That's all I wanted.

We suddenly got eye-contact, he probably realised I was staring at him. I didn't look away, his smile faded.

But his eyes told me he was curious

But his eyes told me he was curious. He was curious of what I was thinking. He always was.

I needed to look away before my eyes revealed me, but I couldn't. I bite my lip and his eyebrows raised.

"Holland, do you remember that?" Crystal says and I suddenly snap out of my daydreaming.

I look at Crystal, a little shook. "Uhm, sorry. What?" I say.

"That time we both auditioned for the same role and none of us go it. So we plotted our revenge against the girl who got the part?" Crystal shouts under the loud music and giggles.

"Oh, ha-ha. Yes I remember. We we're gonna set her on fire and throw her in a dumpster." I giggle back.

"Oh shit. We're evil." She laughs.

"Damn. That's nasty!" Tyler shouts and laughs swell.

We all laugh at the story. I look down. I can feel his eyes on me. He knew it now. He knew I wanted him tonight.
