Starfall - Our last call

Octavia

Reese POV

Shit! Where is he!? He snuck off while I was held up by that bouncer..
"Candy! Have you seen Zach!?"
She looks around
"Check the bar."
I anxiously twist a lock of my hair.
"Maybe this was a bad idea after all.."
"I dunno about you but I'm having fun already!"
"Of course you are."
We walk over to the bar, low and behold, he's there, His face is really flushed.. but there's only two shot glasses there?
"There you are!" I exclaim.
"Hi!" Zachary says seemingly happy.
"Hey, what did you drink?"
My sister asks.
"Oh, y'know just uh, 2 shots of vodka!"
His words are slurred.. he's lying. I give candy a worrying glance, she gives the exact same expression back.
"HEY! BARTENDER!"
my sister shouts, The bar tender comes down to us.
"Hi, what can I do for you?"
"How much did he drink?
Candy says with an intimidating glare. The bar tender pauses and looks conflicted with himself for a moment.
"Uh.. he had 8 shots—"
"What the fuck! I said not to tell anyone!"
Zachary exclaimed, clearly pissed off and drunk.
"Sorry.. you just seem.. unwell.."
The bar tender walks away.
"Zachary.. we're just trying to keep you safe.." I say, worried for my friend.
"Well it's my life! Let me fuck it up if I want to!"
Zachary storms off into the crowd.
Candy runs her fingers through her short hair not knowing what to do, neither do I honestly..
"Welp, you heard the man let him fuck up his life if he wants to." she shrugs
"CANDY! Do you really expect me to just leave my best friend wasted while dealing with the death of his boyfriend— no, fiancé!? No! I don't think so! I'm gonna find him, I'll leave my ringer on, call if you need me." I walk off and start scanning the crowd. I search and search and search, but I can't find him.. where could he be..!?

Zachary pov

The room is spinning, I wanna dance with someone.. then go back to their place for the night.. I giggle at some dirty thoughts about it, then my thoughts are interrupted by a girl who caught my eye.
A short, slender, celestial woman with Pale skin, long black hair, bright purple eyes and she's she's wearing a sequin black skin tight dress. she looks hot.. As I'm staring, she looks over at me. Did she see me staring?
She smirks and walks over to me.
"Hey"
She says with a bit of friendliness
"Uh.. hi, sorry I didn't mean to stare.."
She starts giggling at me, well this is embarrassing.
"I'm Octavia, you?"
"I'm Zachary, Uh.. do you wanna hang out for the night? I have a joint we could share."
"sure."
I smile and nod, we go outside and step into the ally way.
"you're really short!"
"Aha.. yeah I get that a lot, I'm like 5'2, I like my hight, I think it's cute."
"Well, I think you're cute too."
I smile, She blushes.
"Oh.. uh, Thank you?"
"Im sorry, I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable!"
"No! You didn't don't worry about it! I just really didn't expect someone like.. well, Someone as good looking as you to be interested in me.."
"Ah! Geez now I'm blushing!"
We both laugh for a bit, theres silence for a moment then she speaks.
"So.. I was wondering.. do you wanna stay the night at my place?"
She's asking me?
"have you been tested?"
I ask her
"Yes, I'm clean."
"Ok I'm down."
I get closer to her face, she smirks and she kisses me, and we start making out for a little while, we pull away from each other.
"You wanna smoke that joint now?" I ask while chuckling a bit.
"Oh! Yeah I forgot about that haha"
I light the joint, take a few puffs and pass it to her. She takes a hit then starts coughing a lot.
"Are you okay? Have you ever done this before?"
"Not very often.." she says as she clears her throat.
"Ah, I kind of suspected." I smile as she passes the joint back to me, We continued the rotation until the joint gone.
"Wanna go back in and do some shots?"
I ask.
"..are you okay?"
She asks me, I laugh.
"Yeah I'm having a great time! I'm excited for later tonight too~" I smirk as my mind starts to haze over
smirks back at me.
she's hypnotic.
We head in and make our way through the crowd to the bar.
"Hey can you order the round? I'll pay for it afterwards, I have a friend to treat to some shots."
"yeah."
"I'm just gonna call her quick ok?"
"Ok."
I take out my phone and call Reese, she picks up almost right away, even above the other drunks screaming karaoke.
"Zach! where are you!?"
"Come to the bar, I still gotta treat you right? I'm on the far right."
Reese sighs.
"Ok, I'm coming."
I hang up.
Octavia takes a shot.
I take a shot
Octavia takes a shot
I take a shot.
At this point I feel like I might throw up.
Reese finds us.
"Hi Zach! Who's this?"
"Hi! Uh... what's your name again?"
"...Octavia."
Right! Octavia, this is Reese!"
"Hi!" Reese says in a friendly tone.
Octavia smiles softly and waves. Then suddenly, we hear the intro to 'pretty little psycho' by porcelain black. There is only one person I know who can sing that song, and it's candy. I look over to see her up on stage, she starts is dancing, and singing that song impressively, you wouldn't expect her to be able to sing in such a growly voice, especially with her very feminine voice, it's super cool!
"SLAAY!!" Reese hypes her up. Me and Octavia shout and cheer along with her. Soon enough, the whole bar is hyping her up. And once she finishes the entire bar goes crazy! I absolutely love seeing candy absolutely rock metal songs. I take one more shot to celebrate. Now the room is spinning so baldly I almost feel like I'm going to fall off the chair, I'm so fucked up.. my mouth starts watering, Oh no I'm definitely going to throw up, without warning the others I rush to the bathroom and throw up in the toilet. After that happens, I stagger out of the stall and just stare at myself in the bathroom mirror. I'm a mess. if he saw me now what would he think of me..he would be so disappointed in me.
"Can you fucking move."
An orc much bigger than me wearing a leather jacket is glaring at me whileI'm very confused right now..
"H-Huh..?"
"I said move!" He roughly shoves me aside to wash his hands
"Hey what the fuck is your problem!?"
"My problem was that you were in my fucking way! You Twink!"
"There are plenty of other sinks you just want to shove me around to make yourself feel better right coward!?"
"What the fuck did you just call me!?"
"COWARD!"
I say louder.
"I'm gonna fucking kill you!"
Oh shit.
He lunges at me, my first response was to throw the trash can at him, use my levitation magic and and push myself up towards the ceiling, he grabs my ankle and slams me into a bathroom stall, I cry out in pain and slouch against the wall. I'm cornered in the bathroom stall he starts to slowly approach me, I kick his crotch as hard as I possibly can, He keels over and there's just enough time to make a run for it! even though I can barely stand up, I float up, kick against the wall towards the door and I BOLT.
I gotta get out of here before I get beat up, I make it back to the bar.
"H-Hey uhh Resse..?"
"Are you okay did you throw up?"
Uh, yeah, and now there's an angry drunk guy after me soooo I think I'm gonna head over to Octavia's place now!"
"W-What!?"
"YEAH I DON'T KNOW WHY HES ANGRY BUT HE JUST SLAMED ME INTO A WALL SO.."
"Are you guys going to.. y'know.."
Resse makes sex gestures with her fingers. I sigh.
"...Yes."
"Please use protection."
I see the angry drunk dude burst out of the washroom, still keeled over a little bit.
"Ok I have to go Reese! see you!"
"S-See ya.."
I take Octavia's hand and bolt out before angry drunk guy sees me.
Everything else is a blur.
We bus over over to her house,
We go to her bedroom,
You know what happens next.
