So it was decided: on Wednesday, we would have our own mini girls night in and somehow acquire alcohol for it. I spend the weekdays leading up to it nervous both for the fact that we would be doing some illegal behavior and for the fact that... well, Maisy and I would be drunk around each other. Who knows what's gonna happen under the influence?
When Wednesday comes around, I have a semi formed plan in my head. I was going to use Evie to get to Michael's friend, CJ, to get to the alcohol. Yes, the one I threw up on. We all decide to meet up with CJ off campus to get the goods. Evie has a car so we can drive to his house, and she's gonna pick us up at the dorms after I get out of my vocal performance class.
It's only our second day of class so we're just going over the basics. I'm zoned out the whole time, and by the time 3 o'clock rolls around, my heart is pounding in my chest. I get a text from Evie saying that she's outside the dorm waiting for me and Maisy and head that way.
When I get to the parking lot, Evie's 2009 Toyota Camry is idling next to the building. I quickly walk over, seeing Maisy's figure through the car window. I hop in the back seat and we begin our 45 minute journey to Hidden Hills.
After a few minutes of silence, Evie breaks the tension and says, "So... why do you guys need all this alcohol?"
"Uh, just some classic roommate bonding," I hesitantly reply.
"Yeah. If we're gonna be stuck together for the summer we might as well get to know each other," Maisy says.
"Hmm, I see. Trying to get on better terms after the... incident." Evie says.
We both nod. Maisy takes the aux cord and begins to play the "Heathers" soundtrack, and I immediately roll my eyes. She has played some musical every day this week and I want to smash my head into a wall because they are so annoying. If I have to hear Barrett Wilbert Weed one more time...
Fortunately, a new song comes on and it's One Direction.
"I figured I'd let you enjoy at least part of this car ride," Maisy tells me.
"Wow, you're sooo thoughtful." But my voice is playful, not annoyed. Maybe I can deal with her. Suddenly, I feel a vibration in my pocket. It's a text from Calum:
hey, what are you doing today? how was class?
just running errands with maisy and evie. class was fine. how's week two of recording?
it's going by like a breeze! it's almost as if i'm not even here.
i'm so glad :) we just got to the store, so i gotta go. but i'll call you later!
have fun <3
We finally make it to CJ's house and my nerves are buzzing. We hop out of the car and make our way up the driveway, then press the button on the speaker to let CJ know we're here.
"Hey jackass, we're here," Evie says into the microphone.
The door opens and CJ is standing in the frame. "Yo ladies, is there gonna be a rager at the dorms tonight? Is that why you need all this?"
"Dude it's literally 2 bottles of red, white, and berry vodka. How the hell would that be enough for a party?" Evie responds.
"You got me there dawg. Well here you go, that's gonna be $30."
"What the fuck? I know you're rounding up!"
"Convenience fee."
"Whatever, CJ. Thanks, see you around."
The three of us wave goodbye and head back to the car. This time I get the front seat and the aux, thank god. I put on some Troye Sivan and we hit the road. We barely get out of the neighborhood when we hear sirens behind us and see red and blue flashing lights.
"Shit, is that a fucking cop?" Evie asks.
"No fucking shit that's a cop! Pull over!" Maisy yells.
"Wait! We have alcohol in the car. Should we try and outrun them?" I exclaim.
"No!" Evie and Maisy yell in unison. So we pull over, and my jaw drops, realizing that we were pulled over right next to Jeffree Star's mansion. I recognize it because he has a pink Lamborghini in the driveway that says Jeffree Star on it. Suddenly, one of his Pomeranians runs onto the road behind our car, nearly getting hit by the cop tailing us. I hear a feminine screech come from the mansion and Evie rolls the windows down.
"Da Vinci!" Jeffree Star cries as the cops get out of their car.
"Is this your dog, ma'am?" The taller one says. Evie, Maisy, and I watch the scene in total shock.
"Yes, you almost fucking killed him! I am going to sue you and expose you on my YouTube channel! What is your name?"
"Uh. You know what?" The cop calls out to Evie. "Forget we even pulled you over. Have a nice day girls."
"Now that's more like it." Jeffree smiles as the cops drive away. He then turns to us. "Here girls, have $500 each for your troubles." Trembling, Maisy grabs the cash from Jeffree's outreached hand. "Th- thank you! I love your makeup!" He waves as we drive away, processing what the fuck just happened.
