"Hey Dana....slow down dude...that's like your fourth one" Cole shook his head reaching for Dana's cup. Dana snatched it away quickly glaring at him

I watched as he brought the cup back up to his mouth and swayed it around slowly. He was looking intently at it, and I was hoping he would just put it down...he had been drinking cup after cup for almost an hour now and judging by how lazy his actions were, and how bad he was slurring his words, he was already pretty drunk. 

"I'm fine!" he spat making me jump slightly. I looked around my living room. The lighting was pretty dim since the power had gone out about an hour ago due to a thunder storm...I am beyond grateful for my friends to come over so I wouldn't have to be alone during it...damn my parents terrible work schedule...I looked around the dark room...the only thing that was lighting up the room was a few candles we set around the room...I glanced over at Sarah who was sitting next to me with a red plastic cup in her hand, Dalton was sitting on one of the recliners in front of the couch also gripping onto a plastic cup. 

I glanced over at Gabe who was sprawled out on the smaller couch. His arm was hanging off of the couch and he barely gripped onto his now empty cup... I noticed he was snoring slightly. I turned my attention back to Cole who seemed more than pissed at Dana's harsh actions. He was clenching his fists so hard, his knuckled were turning white. Sarah sighed walking over to him and grabbing his arm gently leading him into the other room. 

My eyes finally landed on Dana. He was muttering something under his breath before he raised the cup to his lips and chugged the rest of the drink. He slammed his cup on the table burping disgustingly loud. I shook my head feeling anger wash over me. Why was he acting this way?!

I saw Dana search around the table until he grabbed the bottle of the liquor he had been drinking. He stared at the empty bottle before scoffing and placing it back down on the table. He turned to look at me. His eyes dark as night. 

"Got any more of this shit?" He slurred pointing to the empty bottled of who knows what type of alcohol. I clenched my jaw

"No I don't" I snapped. "And even if I did I wouldn't give it to you!" 

"Alright, geez" He rolled his eyes. "No need to get all pissy about it...what are you like...PM-Sing or something?" He smirked. That was the last straw. 

"Shut the hell up!" I shot up clenching my fists at my side. "You inconsiderate lousy conniving evil little rat!" His eyes widened, obviously taken back from what I had just said to him. I'm not even gonna lie...I never thought I would say something like this to Dana. 

"What the fuck did you just say to me?" He raised his eyebrows. Obviously mad. 

"You heard me!!" I yelled. "You think it's okay to come up in here and get drunk?! What the hell is the matter with you?!" 

"Well in case you haven't realized, I am hurting" He said sternly.

"You have a lousy way of showing it" I shook my head

"This is my way of handling it....so either you accept it or not" He shouted standing up. I stared up at him since he was slightly taller than I am

"Obviously I don't accept it!! Its wrong!!" I shouted. He rolled his eyes

"Listen I don't need to be taught a lesson from a goodie two shoe like you alright?!" He shouted. "Unlike you I am actually upset about what happened" 

"What the hell are you talking about?!" I waved my hands around

"Don't act like you don't know" He said spat "You don't think I notice how well you are taking all of this....you honestly don't even care about what happened between the two of us...sure you cared the day it happened but after that you completely lost interest in it all"
