Its been a week and I have become very close to Jake.
He is nice to hang out with funny although his sense of humor is still kind of inadequate. Though I think now he is very used to me since Jade, Rae and Taky had all gone on a vacation for two months on a summer holiday.
I know what your all thinking,
How does someone miss an opportunity of going out with her friends and do crazy stuff?
But I stayed because of Jake. If I had gone then he wouldn't have a person to talk to and he clearly begged me and also i am broke.
"Hey guys why don't we buy drinks, today am in moods of drinking and getting high," I pleaded putting my palms together across my face as if embarrassed of what I said.
Today we had decided to spend the day at my place, it wasn't a grand place but at least had everything I needed, a beautiful cosy big grey sofa along with fluffy white cushions that complimented the color of the sofa.
I guess my ideal summer holiday must include some nice booze and maybe cute boy with me but let's not forget the most important part which is food!!!
"Nice idea Em, but why don't we make it interesting," Jake looked at me with a bright smile.
Having a friend who is cute tall and is a boy is kind of fun, in case any girl likes him they dance to your tunes just to get noticed by him.
"Go on," I stared back into his deep charming eyes that you could get lost in with in a gaze.
"Let's drink for two days from dusk till dawn ," he jumped out of his seat with an enormous smile.
Now this one of the things I like about Jake, his bizarre weird ideas. And I wonder if any of us was going to endure the hangover but we shall deal with that when the time comes. I also want to be known as one of the cool mothers and grandmothers that have nice stories to tell their children.
"Are you sure we should be doing this with her," he glanced at me and back at to Jason as if trying to insinuate that I couldn't handle it.
"What do you mean, I am pretty sure she can handle, "
Like seriously does he think because I am a girl I can't handle drinking? Now I'm more committed to making sure I am the last one standing.
Jake rushed to the door like a young kid who was promised something earlier.
"Guys are you coming," I could hear the enthusiasm in his tone.
"Ya, "I rushed snatching my purse and phone off the counter and rushing towards the door and pulling it shut.
The guys waited in the Hall way as I locked the apartment.
"Guys you go get the drinks and I will go get something," Mason said I as he went.
"So what do you want?" Jake asked
"Maybe a red label, fourth street, four cousins and maybe some Smirnoff vodka," I replied.
"Wait are those your favorites?" I saw the cart stopping and him giving me an eye as if what I said was odd.
"What, " I inquired, "why are you giving me those eyes of yours that look like a squirrel's?"
"Who has favorites when it comes to booze! You are supposed to just get wasted, " he softly clung my shoulders screaming at me.
"Who said I can't have favorites and besides I'm picky when it comes to alcohol, " I held the cart and left Jake with his theatrical moods.
"Are you sure this enough," I took out some of the bottles holding them up.
"Your right its not enough for two whole nights," he said picking out more bottles.
We went back to my apartment after also stopping by some store looking for some lime in the middle of the night. Mason took his time to appear but finally did.
Mason had brought something else with him wrapped in a paper bag which made me more curious.
"Looks like you guys bought a lot of drinks," he sat down.
"OK let the drinking begin," Jason opened his arms widely announcing.
He got a bottle of vodka whereas I got a bottle of red label.
"Guys I brought you something," he said raising the paper bag.
"Wow weed nice, Em do you smoke?" He looked at me wondering if it was a year or no.
"No but today maybe I can try," Today is a day where I have to get high.
The good thing about being high is that even though someone punches you or slaps you, you don't feel anything at all. And also a trick of not getting drunk easily is that you have to drink slowly not drinking like your drinking water. Being high is like being in your own imaginary world.
The room is now filled with smoke and bottles are down.
"Em lets make a competition with you, the person who drinks the most will be given $1000, $500 from each person you have won, "
I know I said I hate spending money but what can I say this is fun and if I win I get $1000 so I will be benefiting a lot.
Jake looked at me while still drinking
"OK count me in," I agreed, Mason nodded.
"Let the bet begin," Jason said as he went to get glasses so that we take shots.
Time passed by so fast and I agreed never to smoke again because it sucked a lot and I was starting to see the table shifting away.
I could also see them not sober which only meant, "Yay I won all of you, "
The truth is if you see the situation here you would laugh. The house is a mess empty bottles are lying everywhere.
"You haven't won yet," he said pointing his finger at me and with that he fell on the ground from the seat. As for Jake he was looking at me then he looked at the TV then his eyes widened. Even I felt tipsy but I wasn't going to give in.
"Em why is the TV moving," he asked.
"Idk but Mason isn't moving is he dead," I was scared maybe he was until I heard a snore which made me burst out into laughter and Jame holding his ears as if I just laughed into his ears.
"I got you, " he sat up as fast as he could with a high smile on his face.
This was the first time I had seen Mason happy and smiling.
Finally a smile went on his face. I really didn't know why I was so happy that eventually got to see his perfect shinning stunning white teeth that now I was getting lost into. Ok I think I have lost it now I'm admiring a guy because of his teeth eeeew!!
I closed my eyes and opened them but all I could see was Jake having a big head.
Mason stood up rushing to go to the bathroom to puke but he had no stability. I tried standing up to go meet him but the ground felt was moving side ways, I felt like I didn't have control over my body. Just as I was going to the bedroom I knocked my head on the wall and fell on the bed. I lay there hoping to rest and ultimately get some good night sleep but surprisingly my body sent out a surprising that led me to rush to the washroom, I rinsed my mouth but I could feel my throat hurt as if my vomit contained stones. I came out pulling off the bed sheets and sleeping on the bed with just my blanket.
Night passed morning came and again it was night.
Honestly I was already crying the hangover hurt the throbbing that wouldn't stop, the unnatural turning in my gut was making me regret my verdict.
For now I was sober but Mason and Jake weren't.
Jake was snoring very loudly which was kind of funny and annoying.
I decided to also drink up because as we all know it's not everyday you get an opportunity to drink free alcohol.
Mason woke up and sat with me. You know its bad to drink alone.
"You know you are very different from most girls," Mason said looking at me.
I asked the same question any girl would have asked.
"How?" I asked wanting him to say nice comments.
"You have a sexy body but you rarely post your pics including your body,"he said putting a bottle of liquor on his lips.
"Your also very crazy and free," he said.
"How do you know am crazy? "I asked wanting to be fluttered more.
Not everyday a guy tells you nice things about yourself, so let me take my chances.
" Its hard for a girl to accept such things like drinking non stop and your also a very heavy drinker ,"he said
Jason snored louder.
"If I am to ask how come you are a heavy drinker," he inquired.
"Well I started drinking when I was very young and I used to drink with my dad a lot," I told him feeling tired.
"I think I should go now am so tired," I stood up.
"Go where ,"he asked standing up but with no balance.
"To my bed you drunkard ,"I replied with a smile.
I left and closed to get some peaceful sleep.
