"Hey"
"Hey, who is this?"
"It's Chandler, the kid you kinda saved from getting punched lol."
"Oh hey! Lol what's up."
"I'm just laying at home on my bed, how about you?"
"Oh I'm just hanging out with some of my friends."
"Oh fun, you seem popular. I'm surprised you texted me back because I mean I guess it's kinda weird that I got your number from Instagram lol."
"No, you seem cool and I need to make better friends."
"Oh lol that's fine with me lol"
"Wow you put lol a lot."
"Oh sorry, I'm just excited and surprised that you actually texted me back."
"No it's fine, why are you that excited and surprised."
"Well because I'm gay and I thought you would sense that from me and not text me back."
"You're gay? Oh I knew that lol. That doesn't faze me at all.
(In my head) "yas bitch"
"Oh that's awesome, thank god."
"Lol you seem cool. Do you want to hang out with me and my friends? We'll come by and get you."
(In my head) "oh my god oh my god oh my god"
"Um, yea that sounds awesome!"
"Ok we'll be there in about 20 minutes."
"Ok see you then!"
I run downstairs and ask my mom if I can go with some friends. I tell them who they are and that they are good. She agrees and I run back upstairs and comb my hair cause that's all I really have to do because I already look good.
I sit around waiting ,on my bed, for them to show up. I wait and wait. It's been an hour now. He's taking five-ever.
Finally he shows up and honks. I get into the car and stay quite because all of his friends were being rowdy. I didn't want to ruin their moment.
His friends were all jocks, you could tell. They were all wearing their letterman jackets with their numbers and the year they graduate. They were all seniors.
"Hey freshie!!" James yelled.
James was wearing the school's football t-shirt and some loose jeans with holes in them.
"Hey" I respond.
"Why so stiff?" One of his friends nudged my shoulder.
"Leave him alone Garett. This is his first time with us." James said.
Garett was a very cute young guy who had short hair. He was wearing his letterman jacket with some loose jeans and was sitting right by me in the middle seat.
"I know something that will loosen him up." Garett jokes and pulls out a bottle of vodka and puts it in my face.
"Garett I swear to god I'm going to beat your ass if you don't quit!" James shouts. "Sorry Chandler, he's a dumb ass."
"It's ok, I'm used to dumb asses." I joked.
Everyone started laughing.
"I like you new kid." A girl sitting in the passenger seat said.
"I do too babe." James said. He grabs her hand.
(In my head) well damn.
"So where are we going?" I ask
"We're going to the movies and watching that new movie, darkness." Another friend of James said.
"Hell yea Gabe! It's supposed to be really scary" James said.
Gabe was not super cute but he had an ok sense of style. He was wearing his letterman jacket with some skinny jeans and was sitting on the other side of me.
"It better not be that scary, I can't deal with some too scary stuff." James' girlfriend said.
"Babe I'll be there, you'll be okay." James Said.
"Yea Ivy I'll save you too boo." Gabe said.
Ivy was your everyday cheerleader, wearing James' letterman jacket and some booty shorts.
"Ooh boy you better slow it down there buddy. This is my girl, not yours." James snapped.
"Oh calm down, I'm not doing anything. You know Thai dick is for some boys." Gabe laughs out.
"We Chandler is gay too so maybe y'all can hook up." Garett jokes.
"Shut the hell up Garett! Leave him alone!" James yells.
My eyes grow huge.
We arrive and we buy the tickets. We sit down and I sit at the end by Gabe. Oh lord please help me.
The movie starts and the movie theatre goes dark.
In the middle of the movie I feel a hand touch my thigh. I look down and it's Gabe's hand! I slap it and act like nothing happened.
The movie ends and we all leave with Ivy latched onto James. Clingy much? Anyway. We leave and we go to his house and we sit in his living room. Garett whips out the vodka and he grabs us all shot glasses. He pours us all a glass and hands it to us.
"To the newby." He raises his glass.
Everyone takes a drink including me and I cringe at the taste. Bleh, it tasted like germ-x.
"What percent was that?" I say disgusted.
Everyone laughs.
"It's 100" Garett laughs.
"Oh god it tastes terrible! Pour me another!" I laugh out.
Garett laughs.
I continue to take many shots. One after the other. I don't know why I kept doing it but i was having fun. I was trying to fit in.
I took one last shot and remember laughing and falling down. That's when I blacked out.
I woke up to darkness. I couldn't see anything. Wait. Did I drink too much? Did I drink myself to going blind? Oh my god. Wait. I'm facing into the bed. I laugh and get up. I walk into the living room to see everyone is awake. There's Gabe that looks like he got his ass beat and everyone else was fine but James. He looked pissed. I wonder what happened.
I walk over and sit on the couch.
"Do you not remember what happened last night?" Garett asks.
"No, it looks brutal though. What happened?" I ask.
James looks up at me.
"You kept taking shots and I guess you're a horny drunk because you were acting flirty towards everyone and Gabe took it too far and he took you into a room without us noting and y'all had sex. James walked in on you and him and Gabe was going after it. He kept going even though he saw that James had seen. James threw him off of you and beat his ass." Garett said.
I sat there in shock.
"Oh my god." I say with my eyes open widely.
"Yep" James said.
"I'm going to go home. I'll see y'all later." Gabe said.
"Good." James snapped.
He leaves and we all sit there.
"Can you take me home?" I ask James.
"Yea" James said.
He takes me home and I just rest for the rest of the day. I messed everything up by drinking too much. Good job Chandler.
