Irish Vacation

Chapter five

Eoin watched Roxie from across the bar. She was sitting next to a man and they were laughing at something the man had said. Eoin felt incredibly jealous watching Roxie smile at someone that wasn't him. He checked his watch and saw that it was getting close to closing time and he worried the guy would try to get Roxie to leave with him, so he made his way over to her.
"Eoin!"She said, happily. She draped her arm around his shoulder, "This is Luka, he's from Greece."
"That's very nice darlin, but it's time to say bye and head home." He told her, expecting resistance. She hopped of the bar stool and shook Luka's hand before leading the way back to where Colin and Bradley were waiting.
"Mind if we crash at yours, mate?" Colin asked.
Eoin nodded and helped the tipsy Roxie into her coat. He had to admit, she was a funny drunk. He also knew that she was too drunk to sent home in a cab by herself. He helped her write a text to her sister saying that she would stay at Eoin's for the night and he'd drive her home in the morning.
Colin and Eoin herded Bradley and Roxie the few blocks back to Eoin's. They were about a street away when Roxie stopped.
"My feet are sore." She complained with a pout.
Eoin chuckled, "Hop on, I'll give you a piggy back." She jumped on his back and laughed. By the time they reached the house she had grown silent, and Eoin suspected she was asleep.
He carried her up the stairs and into his room, laying her on his bed. He put her on her side, so that if she threw up she wouldn't choke, then pulled her shoes off. He pulled the blanket up and kissed her forehead before sneaking out of the room.
