Chapter 6
•••

The two teenagers had somehow stumbled into a club, filled with neon signs and colourful chairs. The place was packed, so it was easy for Toni and Kim to smuggle themselves in, blending in with the rest of the Southsiders.

"Hey Kim, want anything to drink?"

"I'll pass. Gotta be home by eleven. Dad wants to speak to me."

"Alright. You can always take a sip of my rum and coke I guess" Toni shrugged, flagging the bartender. Kim drowned out the conversation going on between the woman behind the bar and Toni, shutting her eyes and breathing slowly, in and out.

She wasn't used to the small rooms packed with tons upon tons of people. She was used to small gatherings with greasy onion rings all around and large lemonades.

By Toni's third drink, she had already attempted to make out with the nearest object to her right; that being a an empty beer bottle. Why the hell had she signed up for a night of drunk Toni? Clearly her brain had been flowing with pretend vodka.

Suddenly, Toni slipped off her chair.

"Toni! Are you okay?" She rushed to her friend, picking her up. She sure didn't have a high alcohol tolerance.

"I'm gooddddd...-hic!" she giggled and hiccuped.
"Don't looooook now but Pea Sweet is kissing Chewel Brossom... Or was it Bolton? Do you want to see High School musical againnnnnn?" She slurred as she pointed directly at the two figures at the back of the room, his hands knotted in her hair and the girl's legs wrapped either side of his hips. She groaned and slung her friend's arm around her shoulder, carrying out her drunk friend.

"Toni, you've gotta be quiet! If you're gonna stay here, even hammered Toni has to obey the rules!" Kim hissed.

"Oooookaaaaaaayyyyy"

Kim sighed, she had agreed that Toni could stay at hers during the week. She hadn't realised it would be this hard. Hopefully, she wasn't like this ALL the time!
