Eli brought the drink to his lips and coughed as he swallowed. "Hunter..." he hicced. "I-I don't get why you care about her."
Hunter groaned and took the bottle from Eli. His words slurred together and he had to focus to speak clearly.
"She... She's my best-" Hunter hiccuped, and laughed then continued. "My best friend." He took the vodka bottle to his mouth and cringed as the bitter liquid hit the back of his throat. Eli laughed and smacked the table with the palm of his hand.
"Even- Even if she is," Eli said once he stopped laughing. "She- she's a.." Eli stopped and thought for a minute. "A skinny bitch." he finished with a nod.
Hunter gazed at him blankly. Then started laughing. "D-doesn't mean I still don't." Hiccup. "Love her."
Eli gave a wide gaze at Hunter and shook his head.
"You can't say that."
"Say what?"
"That you love her."
"Why?"
"I... You." Eli stopped and gave a loud belch that put the two into hysterics. "You aren't dating her though," he said, taking another swig from the vodka bottle. Hunter shrugged and grabbed the bottle from Eli.
"It's a sisterly love... I think." While Eli laughed, Hunter made a choking noise when the liquid hit his lips. He spit it out into his lap and laughed. "I-I'm done." He said between chuckles. "I'm.. I'm gonna sleep. Fuck this."
Hunter stood up and moved to the couch. He laid across it and began to snore. Eli laughed and stood up, unsteady on his feet as he walked upstairs.
Eli reached his bed and laid on his stomach. Once comfortable, he checked his phone, the screen a watery blur.
