I found Jess almost immediately. She was dancing on the dance floor with one glass in her hand. "Autumn!" She threw her arms around me and put her head on my shoulder. "Oh, I miss you. Where have you been?"
I held my arms around her, afraid that she might fall if I let go. "Jess, are you drunk?"
"No, of course not. I only drunk a few glasses," answered her sleepily. I shouldn't have asked, no drunk person would admit they were drunk just like no criminal would admit they've committed a crime.
Carefully I guided her through the crowd and brought her to the living room. A few people were making out there but it was better than the loud music. Right now, I've mastered a talent of muting the kissing noises and placing my gaze where they were safe. At the ground.
"I'm gonna get you some water. Stay here." I went to the mini fridge and took out a bottle of mineral water. I unscrewed the cap and handed her the bottle. She took a big gulp then put the bottle on the table.
