The boy next door

One Drink Led to Another thing

Just to be clear the year is 1958 ;)

We walked in the dirtiest, crappiest(if that's a word) place I've ever seen. I kinda liked it. The only thing I couldn't stand was the smell of alcohol and cigarettes.

"George, we shouldn't be here."

"Don't worry. No one will catch us. I'm going back-stage to get ready. You can sit by the bar if you like. Order me a beer for when I finish, will ye?"

I sat on a bench and looked at the stage when someone taps me on the shoulder. I looked up and saw Daniel. He was drunk as hell! His face was covered with red lipstick.

"What are you doing up on a school night?" He asked.

"Same to you." He laughed. That beautiful laugh. "Who were you kissing?" I raised an eyebrow.

"Her name is Kathy." Suddenly, a blonde girl stood beside him, kissing his cheek.

"Hi, I'm Katy. Nice to meet you!!" She held her hand out for me. I shook it.

"Hi, my name is Eleanor. I'm guessing you're Daniel's girlfriend?"

"What? No! I'm his sister Katy Thomas. The one you're talking about is Kathy McCarthy, George's ex-girlfriend."

"Ladies and Gentlemen, The Quarry-men!"

George's POV

I was backstage preparing for the performance. John, the leader, summoned us for practice. We started playing 'Love Me Tender' by Elvis, but I kept messing up the chords. John asked me what's messing up me head.

"Nothing."

"It's a bird, isn't it? Is she here?" He smirked at me. "George, you can't get out of a relationship and into another as quickly as it seems." He chuckled.

"I know..." I sighed. "It's just, I can't get her out of my head."

"But you need to. At least for two hours."

"OK"

We heard the announcer say the band's name. As we walked onstage, I looked at the bar where Eleanor would be waiting. A wave of anger came through me as I saw who she was with. None other than Daniel Thomas, hottest boy in class. I hate him. He stole every girlfriend I've ever had, even my latest bird Kathy. But he's not stealing Eleanor. I'll do anything in the world to have her in my hands. She looked at me and waved with a smile that makes you wanna melt. I smiled back. That smile changed when I saw Kathy walking over to Daniel and giving him a passionate kiss on the lips. He deepened the kiss and took her to the men's bathroom. You must imagine what they were doing.

Our gig ended. I went to see Eleanor and took the now hot beer. I looked at Katy Thomas. She said her goodbyes and walked out The Cavern. Eleanor looked at me. "Bad day?"

"Ye aren't drinking?"

"I asked you first. And no, I don't like beer."

"One, yes. I think Katy told ye why. And two, have ye ever tried beer?"

"No"

"Here, have some of mine." She took a sip and, without thinking twice, drank half pint?! "Whoa... Take it easy." I told the bartender to bring her one. He gave it to her and she started drinking it. "So, ye had a bad day, too?"

"Mhm... I think you know why." I knew by the way she looked all drooling over Daniel.

Eleanor's POV

Since Daniel left with George's ex, I felt bad. I wanted to drink, but I was afraid I would get drunk. Katy told me about George's relationship with McCarthy. He must be devastated. I like him a little, but not as much as Daniel.

I drank the beer George ordered for me and two more. I was drunk. I couldn't stop laughing and neither could George for he was drunk, too. We left The Cavern and went to my house laughing all the way. Luckily, George's parents weren't at home and mines, either. Nick stayed at some friend's house.

When we got there, George went upstairs and into my room(like he knew where it was). I knew my Dad had a bottle of scotch in the pantry. I took it to my room and took a large gulp. George started laughing.

"Didn't ye parents ever taught you to share?" I gave him the bottle and sat next to him on the floor. He took a gulp. "Do ye like Liddypool so far?" He took another gulp and looked at me. I took the bottle out of his hands and drank from it.

"Yes, especially you." I giggled and poked his nose. I placed the bottle down beside me and looked into his dark brown eyes. He leaned in. I did the same. He did what I never though the had the guts to do. He kissed me! MY VERY FIRST KISS!

Since I was drunk, I kissed back. He deepened it. I stood up and sat on the bed, dragging George with me. I took George's jacket off and he took off his shirt. I took my shirt off and he started a trail of kisses down to my belly. I liked what we're doing, but I wasn't prepared to lose my virginity.

"George..." I pushed him a little, making him stop. "I have to tell you something." I sighed. "I'm a virgin. And I don't want to make a mistake by ending up pregnant at this age and-" He placed a finger on my lips shutting me up.

"I know. I don't want to, either."

"Please stay tonight." The words slipped from my lips and I quickly covered up my mouth.

"OK" He shrugged and smiled. I grabbed the bottle from the floor, went downstairs and put it back where it belonged.

When I came back, I saw George lying on my bed. I have to admit, he looked sexy. Since I was lazy that night, I went to bed just like that. I trusted George. We cuddled and fell asleep.
