The Truth About Revelations

~~

"Let her at me. I could stop her with a pinkie." , Finn taunted. 

I looked at Clay and he shook his head. 

"He's patronizing me.", I scream-whined. 

"Alyssa, You are hammered. There's no way in hell I'm letting you make any of your own decisions right now.", he spoke from behind me. 

I turned around. "Fine. Take me away.", I slumped against his body. And damn, it felt good. 

Finn glared. 

I smiled, flipping him off. "Suck it.", I mouthed.

We had been walking around the house, trying to sober me up with a few glasses of water. When we had finally sat down outside, I was exhausted. 

"So, you wanna talk about what happened back there?", Clay asked, looking into his second empty bottle of beer. 

"No." 

"You wanna talk about Clarissa Jacobson?", he asked. 

"No." 

"Youuu wanna talk about one of my friends?", he asked awkwardly. "Or yours?", he recovered. 

I was beginning to think Dex had told him what happened. 

"No."

"Okay, do you wanna talk about how you've been doing here?", he asked, his speech a little slurred. 

"Clay, you've been in my life for some time now. Tell me, do you find me attractive?", I blurted. 

He looked at me for a moment, a little taken aback I'm sure, then smiled. 

"Why? Do you find me attractive?", he smirked. 

"I mean you're obviously not unattractive." , I answered. 

"That's good.", he smiled. "So, do you wanna talk about-"

"I don't wanna talk about anything stupid. I want answers." 

"About what?", he asked curiously. 

My mind went blank. What had I even wanted answers to? Suddenly, something random popped into my mind.

"Did you lie to me about driving me home that one time? When we were at another party over the summer?" 

Silence. 

He looked up at me. 

"I'm really buzzed, Alyssa."

"I'm far past buzzed, Clay.", I answered, looking straight at him. 

"Yeah.", he simply stated. 

" 'Yeah', you lied to me?", I asked.

He nodded.

"What were you fighting about with Finn at the carnival a couple months ago?", I continued to ask all my unaswered questions. 

"You and some of your friends.", he laughed. 

"What, you both find me super attractive?", I asked, snorting. 

"Not quite.", he laughed.
