Their guest room is filled with blissful silence as the gang slept peacefully in their respective beds, before they leave the hotel for their gang road trip tomorrow.

Eggs is currently sleeping soundly on his hotel bed when he was awaken by the sound of his call ringtone buzzing out of his phone. 

"Ugh," he groaned silently, picking up his phone from beside him groggily.

"Yes?" He croaked out, not even bothering to check who called him.

"Eggs, it's Winnie." Those words immediately made him shoot up on his bed to force himself awake. He slapped his cheek, trying to wake himself up. "Gosh, I'm so sorry I slept on you babe. Where are you?"

"I'm on my way to the stoplight babe. It's a good thing I've convinced my parents well enough to trust me to go out with you guys," Winnie answered, as he made his way towards the bathroom.

"I'm glad you were able to convince them in the last minute," Eggs replied with a small laugh, making Winnie giggle for a bit on the other end of the line. "Yeah, such a miracle indeed," she added.

"Right," Eggs groaned, rubbing his eyes. "I'll be right there in a couple of minutes."

"Yeah, see you later handsome. Love you."

And with that, she dropped the call, making him smile. After he went to the bathroom to give his face a splash of water, he got his cellphone before making his way outside their guest room.

Though on his way out, he noticed that neither Wybie or Coraline were anywhere to be found (yes, their beds are just that far apart), so Eggs had quickly assumed that two went out on their own business.

So he swiftly exited the hotel, walking along the street towards the stoplight where Winnie told him to wait for her. It's going to be a long walk, since the hotel they're staying in is beside a coffee shop, a bar, and finally a restaurant where the stoplight is located.

Eggs doesn't even know what time it is now, but the street is still blooming with busy lights, the coffee shop beside the hotel is still open, but he can see that only a few people are around, so it's got to be around 9 or 10 pm in the night.

He'd casually check on his phone to see if Winnie texted him or not. As he was walking past the bar though, he saw a shade of blue exit the bar, and he had to practically squint his eyes to make out the figure before him.

And then, his jaw dropped. "Oh my god."

She was really tipsy as she walked out the bar, her posture is not straight, and worst of all she's only in her pajamas. Eggs had to cover his mouth to prevent a fly from entering his mouth, or to keep himself from laughing out loud.

"Chandelieeeerrr!" Coraline shouted from the distance, raising her bottle of beer up high as Eggs stared at her unusual behavior.

This is the first time he's ever seen her drunk, and he didn't even know that Coraline can drink since they're only 17. Maybe she got kicked out of the bar after knowing she's under-aged.

Eggs shook his head and went straight towards her, as suddenly a random guy around his 20's approached Coraline and quickly wrapped an arm around her.

"Hey hot stuff," he murmured against her ear, and even though she's very drunk, she cringed at her closeness to this random guy talking to her.

"Eugh, get away from me dingbat," she yelped, trying to pry him off of her but he just wouldn't budge.
