Breaking Free

Chapter 28

Raven's pov

By the time Lucy walks out of the bathroom, Emily and Asher have traded clothes, Conner stuck a pencil up his rear end, Noah took three more shots, I was covered in baby oil, and Nathan and Emily were in the middle of a make out session.

"What are you doing?" Lucy exclaims.

"Hey, Lucy," Nathan says with a nervous smile. "We're playing a game of do it or drink, wanna join?"

"Can I speak to you for a second?" Lucy says angrily. Nathan follows Lucy over to the couch and they try to argue quietly.

"I haven't been able to figure out if you dating me is a joke or something you're serious about, but it's pretty clear that it's a joke," Lucy says. "I always knew you people liked to make fun of me but I never thought you'd take it as far as this. Unlike when we were freshman, I'm not going to stand around and take your abuse."

"I-," Nathan says.

"No, I really thought you liked me. I brought you to church, I thought this was a serious relationship," Lucy says.

"Hey," Conner says loudly. "We can still hear you." Lucy pushes past Nathan and grabs her things from around the room.

"Emily I'll return your clothes later," she says before darting out of the room.

"On that note, I think it's time to call it a night," Emily says.

"Yeah, see you in the morning," I say as I stand up. Noah grabs my arm and I help him up.

"What happened to that rule about the person who takes the most drinks having to do a dare from everyone?" Conner questions.

"That's right!" I say with a smile.

"Oh boy," Noah says. "Hit me with em."

"Call your mom and tell her you got a girl pregnant and don't call her back until tomorrow," Conner says.

"She'd be pissed," Noah says.

"Lick everyone's armpits," I say.

"Ew!" Emily shouts. "I haven't shaved. Uhhhh, eat a paper towel."

"Now that's not happening," Noah says. "How the fuck does someone in their right mind eat a paper towel?"

"Good thing you aren't exactly in your right mind," Emily laughs.

"I'm too tired to come up with anything good," Asher says.

"Nathan, you got one for me?" Noah asks.

"When you tell your mom you got a girl pregnant tell her you're dropping out of school too," Nathan says with a smile.

"Are you guys trying to get me killed?" Noah says.

"Hurry up, I'm tired," Asher complains.

"Fine, crybaby," Noah says as he pulls out his phone. He dials his mom's number and puts it on speaker phone.

"Noah?" Sarah says. "Why are you calling so late? Are you in trouble?"
