Ariena was having the best time of her life at the FUMES. She felt free and lively after a very long time. Music, drinks, ambience and the crowd everything was just too good for one to loose all his/her worries and live the current moments of life.
Bruce was looking at the girls, who were now engaged themselves in some sort of drinking competition. They all were totally wasted right now.
"Hey Ariena, you are cheating, I've said to do bottom up and everytime you only finish half you loose to us...." complained Lenny seeing Ariena glass still half filled.
"Sorry but I can't take it anymore, I raised my flag to you guys just tell me my punishment..." Ariena was too full and wanted to empty her bladder really soon, "I want to use restroom now, excuse me.."
"Me too, me too, let's go together..." Stacey hugged Ariena arms and accompanied her with her own shaking moves.
Bruce was quick to ask Ellie to assist them as he didn't want them to go all alone in this state and he can't left Lenny in this state too. "What a headache you three are", sighed Bruce straightening Lenny at her place.
... .... .... .....
Ariena felt a lot better after relieving herself out. She was washing her face with cold water to gain some consciousness, when she heard Stacey throwing up inside her cubicle.
"Hey Stacey are you okay.." She asked her while knocking on the door.
"Yes I'm good, just give me a minute..." replied Stacey in a little shaky voice.
After a few minutes Stacey came out looking haggard, Ariena approached her with a concern look , "Hey you don't look well to me, should we end this night here and head back.."
"Oh no no, just give me a minute, let me washed up myself... I'm fine.." Stacey was quick to defend her state as she didn't want to go home yet.
.... .... .....
As a lot of time had passed and the two have not returned yet, Bruce was fretting over their safety, "They have to be safe as Ellie is with them.." He tried to convince himself by the same sentence again and again.
After sometime, when he saw them reaching out to where he was sitting with Lenny, he couldn't help and voice out his uneasiness, "What take you girls so long.... I think that's it, let's head back.."
Lenny was quick to deny his request, "No I didn't get the chance to dance yet , let's go for it..."
Ariena and Stacey smiled at the drunken state of Lenny and support her with her demand, as the three left Bruce and head towards the dance floor.
Bruce excused himself from joining them because he also wants to pardon himself from babysitting the drunken ladies for some time. ''Finally I can enjoy my drink after a long time... this Lenny is too loud when she is high..." He mumbled as he rested his head on the backrest of the couch and closed his eyes for a few seconds. He sat there taking sip from his drinks while watching the girls moving themselves according to the beats of the loud music, FREELY, without any duress to worry about.
.... .... ...
They were so immersed in dancing that they didn't even noticed all the attention they were getting from the people around them on the dance floor as they were really cute and adorable dancing with pink blush on their faces due to alcohol.It was a sight to watch, three beautiful, sexy figure swaying their bodies, without caring about their surrounding.
..... ... ..... ... ...
Stan instantly left his car for valet parking to park as he head towards the entrance. The guards on the entrance of FUMES greet him with a slight bow as he made his way in.
He swiftly take a look at the place to find the person, whom he wants to see the most at that time. He felt as if a big stone has been lifted away from his heart when he spot the girl dancing and laughing in her own glory, without a worry in the world.
"Ariena..." he breathe out her name as his body release all the tensions that had built up from the moment he received the call from Ron. He was super worried about her safety as this was the first time since they have known each that no one can get in touch with her.
He was looking at her dancing figure with lots of affection and love when the candidly voice of Brann broke his reverie.
"Hey buddy.... here.... " Bruce waved his hands to call Stan to the place where he was. "I have already ordered your regular drink, if you wana change go ahead..." he added smilingly as Stan joined him on the couch opposite to him.
"No.. it's fine with me.... so you are the culprit here to get Ariena drunk to the level that she didn't even responding to anyone calls... Hann.." Stan blamed him jokingly with the squinted eyes.
"Hey .. don't spout nonsense here..." Brann refute instantly against the blaming eyes of Stan, "... I've just helped her to entertain her friends and enjoy the night FREELY and SAFELY..." he backed himself by putting stress on a few words. His defensive response earned a hearty laugh from Stan.
"Okay I'll not blame you , let's just report all the happening here to Andrew and see what he had to say about it.." Stan teased his friend again when he saw how distressed his face was at that time.
"Really you wanna do that, I dare you pick that damn phone of yours and I swear I will broke every single thread of our friendship with you... you despicable man I helped you in finding her and that's how you repay my generosity... Scram ...." Brann shouted out at Stan's threatening tone.
Stan burst into a fit of laughter seeing the horrified face of Brann and literally roll-on the couch holding his stomach.
..... ... ...
Girls were having a great time dancing and singing along with the music, when a group of four males approached them.
"Hey gorgeous... can we join you...?" asked the boy with dirty brown hair in a sloppy manner as he reached out his hand to caress Lenny's cheeks lovingly.
"You stop there..." Stacey was quick to pull Lenny towards her before his hand could her, she immediately denied there offer in a strict tone "And we don't need you all to accompany us..so please help yourself and leave us alone..."
"Oh ..... this little one is quite spicy, I like that.." laugh the boy in leather jacket with red hair on the side and added as he made a move towards Stacey while putting his hand in his skin tight jeans pocket, "how can you deny our offer even when you didn't tried our company..."
..... ..... .....
Bruce noticed that there was some commotion on the dance floor, so he immediately put down his glass made his way to the girls.
