Logan P.O.V
I sat in a booth watching as both lein and chase chug down a whole bottle of alcohol like it was water. before both of them slammed the empty bottles on the table making me chuckle as the whole table burst into cheers as they patted both lein and chase on the back.
The night of leins bachelor party was here and already in full swing with us at a club called the golden diamond.
The golden diamond is the biggest club in the city only the rich and famous attended, but thanks to some people lein knew he was able to get us the best seats in the house that over looked everything going on down below.
And even better drinks and food were on the house as long as we were there, so everybody was taking full advantage of the opportunity especially lein and chase. Both of them alone had went through five whole bottles of alcohol in the span of only an hour, since we've been here.
While I sat in the booth with my first mimosa slightly sipping on the beverage while I laughed at chase as he struggled to tell a story In his drunken state.
I wasn't the biggest fan of alcohol or any drugs at all really. even when I was a young dumb high school kid sneaking out to parties every night I would just get hype on candy alone.
While lein and the rest of them continued drinking I found my mind drifting off to ways I could propose to Maya that's the only thing I haven't figured out. I've been given some good pointers and even brainstormed some good ideas myself but nothing good enough to 'wow' her.
I just wanted it to be refreshing but also something for her to always remember even when we grow older together.
I sighed heavily playing with the cubes in my cup with my straw before taking a sip. I looked over the balcony to the people down below that continued to flood in the doors, but in the midst of the crowded club my eyes caught someone's piecing gaze.
The goosebumps and the tingling sensation returned for a moment before it disappeared like vapor. I found myself jolting my head back and forth trying to meet the same gaze again but was interrupted by lein hitting his spoon on the glass cup on the table catching everybody's attention at the table.
"Listen up everybody I wanna first start by saying thanks for attending this party with me tonight as you all know I'm getting married' he said proudly making everybody at the table hoot and cheer loudly in which he took a little bow before he went back to his speech.
"I wanna say that this is a big step in my life and hopefully a brand new future shining brightly for not only me but logan to" he smirked at me with a wink earning a cheer and a couple of slaps on my back in congratulations.
"So tonight I drink and party one last time tonight as a single man and also as good luck to logan and Maya" lein lifted his shot glass and the rest of us joined him before downing the glass of alcohol. I shook my head violently not used to the burning sensation sliding down my throat.
"Don't wanna alarm anybody but theirs a group of fine young women that's been eye raping us all night especially you logan" chase smirked nudging me with his shoulder and motioning in their direction with his head.
I looked to the left of me and just as he said there were three young women looking directly at our table and one of them had their eyes narrowed in on me.
"Logan your not gonna go talk to her" chase whispered lowly
"Uh chase I don't know if you remember but I'm dating your sister and I am planning on marrying her"
"Okay and one night won't hurt the frog" chase scoffed rolling his eyes I pursed my lips and shook my head not being swayed on the idea.
"Alright bro your lost because I'm not coming home tonight" he smirked jumping up and fixing his hair as two of his friends trailed closely behind.
I shook my head at chase with a smirk and finished sipping the last bit of my mimosa.
Chase was and always had been a womanizer because of his good looks and charm he could bed over 5 women in under one night and that still wouldn't be enough for him. Its kinda shocking seeing him go from the innocent little boy that was to scared to leave maya's side to a young man that couldn't stay out of a woman's jeans.
I was brought out of my thoughts when lein who had left an hour ago to suppposly go to the bathroom plopped beside me with the smell of alcohol strong on his clothes.
"What's up logan how've you been" he slurred clearly intoxicated, the smell of alcohol was even stronger on his breath making me almost gag.
"I'm good just been planning on how I'm going to pop the big question to maya" I sighed with a chuckled as I slide down a bit putting some space between us.
"I understand where your coming from when I was first bout to propose to my lady I was like damn. Ain't this a bitch I'm gonna be married. At first I was nervous you know had jitters and all that crazy shit but after a minute I just maned up. I know it's a lot extremely stressful really, but don't let it get you down man. You know Maya loves you just as much as you love her. " he slurred his country cowboy accent coming out in every word as he hit my chest lightly as a way of reassuring me.
In that moment I felt a weight being lifted off my shoulder and a relief surged through my chest that I hadn't felt in a while. Until lein slowly slide a shot over to me with a innocent look on his face. I looked down at the small glass of alcohol than back up at lein with a really type of expression on my face.
"Aye It's my last night single I'm not wasting it being a sad ass so come on logan let's get ass face drunk like a bunch of old sailors" he screamed lifting up his shot as he nudged me with his shoulder waiting for me to do the same. I let out a laugh shaking my head at lein's care free attitude before I raised my glass up and toasted with a clink of the glass. I downed the shot in one gulp before Cringing at the after taste. The strong metallic like taste burned my throat as it made its way down making me cough as lein laughed and pat my back.
"Can't hold your alcohol logan" Lein teased holding another glass of the shot before drinking it in one go. I arched a eyebrow at lein as a challenging smirk graced his face.
One thing about me was that I loved a good challenge and would compete for almost anything. Even as a child I took many dares and risks which landed me in the hospital a lot and lein knew that.
I snatched a shot from the table and downed it quick before grabbing another one doing the same.
"Whoa man slow down drinks aren't going anywhere" lein chuckled sliding me another one.
"Aye you said it yourself I gotta loosen up and I am" I said lifting the glass before chugging it down.
Lein burst into laughter chugging down one of his own than began the challenge of who can stay sober the longest.
Just because I don't like alcohol doesn't mean I can't handle a few.
A minute had passed and even I couldn't tell how many drinks we had went through. my body felt 10xs lighter than when I first got here and my head was completely buzzed making everything look like it was moving in slow motion, while Lein on the other hand was completely done he was face down out cold surrounded by Shot glasses.
I just watched all the bodies passing by as I tried to make myself not look as drunk as possible but I could tell I was failing miserably. After a minute of just sitting there texting maya and scrolling on twitter I realized I had to use the bathroom.at first I tried to hold it but being drunk and having to use the bathroom was like taking a gamble with life.
So I stood up and made my way towards where I thought the bathroom was. I stumbled past a bunch of bodies that were packed so close I had to squeeze my way through. I had no clue as to were I was going the only thing that was leading me was the alcohol and the need to relieve myself.
Unexpectedly I found myself in the middle of the dance floor filled with bodies grinding against one another as the beat of the music carried the high of everyone on the floor. I was confused at how I ended up in that situation to began with and I mentally cursed at myself for going over board, and now I know why I didn't like to drink.
I tried to make a quick exit off the dance floor but was cut off by people blocking ever exit off the floor. I started to get frustrated not being able to concentrate on anything in front of me. I dodged many bodies the best I could in my drunken state but still managing to bump into some people until I lost my balance and my large frame collided with a much smaller one almost knocking them to the floor
Before their body could hit the floor, my hand jolted out and grabbed the body, pulling them to my chest. I sighed in relief from the close call and mentally scolded myself.
I repeatedly apologized to that person checking around their body for any injury, but because of my poor eye sight fron drinking myself silly, I didn't even know where I was looking.
Just as I went to apologize again the words fell limp on my tongue as I looked down upon those same eyes that I had seen only once but they managed to catch my mind twice.
Staring back at me was those same infauting brown eyes that made my vision clear and the world around me to slow down.
