Love The Game: Overtime

Chapter 17

"You want to have a what?"

"A game night." I just looked at Sara. Her messy blonde hair was in a bun and she was still in her pajamas, same as me, except my hair was down in a messy bird's nest sort of way. Sara was sitting on the counter watching me eat my eggs that she'd made me, as she drank coffee from this mug I'd gotten her. It was a Game of Thrones mug. It's awesome.

"And who exactly are we going to invite? Actually, what are we even going to play? The Wii? We don't have any board games."

"Stop being so negative." She said as she jumped off the counter and put her hands on my face.

"We can invite Presley, Eric, and Alex. Eric has this taboo game that's pretty fun so we can play that, or we can go buy cards against humanities."

"That's five people. We need one more for it to be even." She took her hands off my face and grabbed her House Targaryen mug.

"Well you can invite Callie if you want to."

"That's not what I was asking." Shit.

"I know love. But we need another person. It's her or I can ask this guy Aiden."

"Who's that?" It came out more defensively than I'd meant it too.

"He's this guy I met at the club when you didn't go. He's Eric's friend."

"I'd rather ask Callie."

"Okay good. I'll let everyone know what to bring and you tell Callie. We can have it on Friday." Sara smiled then walked into the living room. I put my plate in the sink before I followed her into the living room. I'm so tired already. I didn't get a minute of sleep last night. Sara kept me up all night. We've been fighting about the stupidest stuff lately, but every time we make up... We make up.

I walked over to the couch and laid down with my head on Sara's lap. She started playing with my hair and I was out within 10 minutes.

                                                                   -----------------------------------

It was already 8 when everyone started showing up. Of course, Callie had to be the first one to get here. When she got here I was in the kitchen putting chips in a bowl like Sara had told me too. Since I was doing that Sara was the one who opened the door. I bet that was awkward. Alex was next to show up, and I honestly thought she was going to be the first one here, she's very punctual. Next was Presley and Eric was a couple minutes later.

After everyone got situated and got their drinks, apparently those are necessary, we got out the games. Sara and I went to the store yesterday and bought Cards Against Humanities. Eric also brought this game called Midnight Taboo. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what the hell that is. Before we actually started I decided to go to the kitchen and pour myself a glass of wine. Sara calls me a wino because I drink it all the time. I poured my glass then walked back to the living room with everyone else.

"OH MY GOD WHAT?" Presley screamed. Scared the shit out of me.

"What?" I said back.

"You're having a drink?" I looked at Sara who was just cracking up.

"Avery drinks, just not very often." Sara said as she scooted over on the couch to make room for me.

                                                                  -------------------------------------

This game is absolutely hilarious. Some of the things they came up with were just insane. I won't even tell you some of the things that these people came up with, but one of the cards said 'pray the gay away' and Sara and I just started dying. At one point it was Eric's turn to pick the cards, and I told him that I thought he was going to like my card. We were all taking about something else when I heard Eric say

"I'm assume you're queefing Avery?"

"What the fuck?" We all started dying. Eric didn't mean it like that but that's how it came out. It was hilarious.

If I'm being completely honest I didn't think this would be very much fun. I actually thought it was going to be really awkward because of Callie. Besides me really no one really liked her all that much. That's mostly because they only know her from what they saw at the party that one night and then whatever else Sara told them. I know Sara well enough to know that she wouldn't purposely talk shit. Emphasis on purposely. Sara does this thing where she starts ranting about something and or someone. She's not talking she when she does it but if you didn't know any better you'd think she was. Either way we're all having a great time. After we finished with Cards Against Humanities Eric broke out the Midnight Taboo. For anyone who doesn't know how to play this game it goes like this. There's a card and it has a word. You have to get your partner to guess the word without saying one of the 4 words that are on the rest of the card.

"Okay babe our turn." Sara said. She had this really intense look in her eyes. It was turning me on honestly.

"Alright let's go." Eric flipped over the little hour glass thing and we started.

"You used to call Mack this all the time."

"A stupid whore."

"No, the other thing."

"Prostitute."

"Yes! Okay uhhh Kristina always tried to do this when she danced but she couldn't and looked stupid."

"Grind." I screamed while laughing.

"Okay uhhh ummm you hate these things that people use to take pictures."

"Selfie sticks." Right as Sara was about to start a new card Eric yelled

"TIME!"

"How many did we get?" I asked. Sara counted the cards.

"Three baby." Sara winked at me. Next was Presley and Callie. I don't know how they ended up on the same teams. Presley was reading out the cards and they got 2 cards but Presley was struggling because she and Callie don't know each other very well. All of a sudden Presley switches cards and yells

"You do this to your boyfriends cum!" Callie is quiet for half a second before she yells back

"Swallow!" The whole group started dying. Eric almost spit his drink out all over Alex. I'm so glad Sara said we should do this.
