POV: Colin
When I got home I went right back to bed. My hangover was not treating me well. I woke up again somewhere around 3:00 to hear my phone going off. I grabbed it from the nightstand, knocking off almost everything in the process, and looked at it to see who it was. Reece... Why was he calling me? Did he know? How could he know? There was no way for Reece to know what happened unless Savannah told him, and I prayed she hadn't, as I decided to answer the call.
"Hello?"
"Colin! Hey! In need to ask you something real quick."
"Sure"
It's over, he knows what happened.
"Wanna come over today?"
"Why today?"
"Well I just thought we could all hang out together."
"Oh, good!"
He didn't know!
"Really? Cool, it'd be nice right?"
"Of course"
"Yeah! You can come by whenever and we can all just chill."
"Ok, I'll see you Reece"
"Bye"
What did I jut do, I said to myself, putting my hands over my face. I'm probably the last person Savannah wants to see right now...
I sat up in my bed and tried to think of something to do about what happened last night. I decided it'd be best to text Savannah and see how she was.
Me: Hey....
– 30 Minutes Later –
Me: Are you mad at me?
Savannah: Hey, didn't see your first text. Did you want to talk about something?
Me: I just wanted to tell you Reece invited me over today.
Savannah: He told me he was going to invite everyone over, something about wanting us to be closer with each other. What did you say?
Me: I told him I'd come over...
Savannah: I'll see you later then.
Savannah: When were you coming?
Me: I guess whenever I can get out of bed without falling over.
Savannah: Lol, I've been there. 😂 Talk to you later Colin.
POV: Savannah
The first person to come over was Sean and his wife Tanya. Reece broke out the board games and a bottle of champagne when they arrived. We talked for a long time about small things, laughing and getting to know each other, until we heard a knock at the door.
"I'll get it," I said cheerfully.
When I opened the door, I saw Colin, Jen, and Ryan standing outside.
"Oh, hey Jen, Colin... Ryan. did you all come together?"
"No we just—" Colin began nervously.
"I get it, coincidence, I'm joking! Sean and Tanya have been here for a while already," I said, gesturing for them to come inside. Jen walked past me to hug Reece who had gotten up to see who was at the door.
"um, Colin can I talk to you for a second?"
"Of course, Ryan, I'll be in there in a bit."
"Alright," he said, patting Colin on the back, "hey Savannah..."
"Hey Ryan," I waved as he brushed closely past me while walking into the living room. He had a woody, aromatic scent. It was almost like walking through a forest filled with a mixture of mango, and orange trees. He smelt absolutely amazing...
"What'd you want to talk about?"
"Huh?" Colin's words distracted me from my thoughts, "oh yeah, um... I just wanted to ask how you were, and you know if you want to talk about last night..."
"Listen, last night, two adults got drunk... that's all that happened."
"But Colin I need to tell you—"
"There's nothing to say," he interrupted, "c'mon, let's go."
He attempted to put an arm around me, but I dodged it and walked into the living room.
"Hey, I have an idea," Reece announced, "we're gonna watch season 2 of Once Upon a Time, and every time Hook flirts, or gets flirted with, we'll drink."
"Sounds splendid," Sean replied.
"We're all gonna be in a coma by the time this is over," Ryan said, making everyone laugh.
"Cheers ladies and gents!" Sean said, raising a glass, and clanking his into ours, as Reece began season 2.
We ended up watching most of the season that night, skipping through some, but stopping because if we didn't we really would be in comas right now.
The next drinking game was Ryan's idea. He suggested we play spin the bottle, which was quickly modified to spin the bottle and ask a question to the other person. We decided to leave out the kissing part and replace it with questions, since we didn't want to cause any relationship problems or fights that night. The only rules were once you spun and it landed on someone, the question you asked had to be something you would never ask if you were sober. If they answered, it was their turn, if they didn't, they had to drink a shot of Cocoroco... a drink made up of 96% alcohol, and they could only mix it with a tiny amount of another fruity liquor.
"I'll go first," Reece slurred. He spun the bottle and it landed on me, "Savannah! Did you ever have feelings for me?"
"No," I said bluntly.
"Really? not even a little bit?"
"Never have, never will Reece," I stated, "my turn!" The bottle spun and landed on Ryan.
"Uh, Ryan... I don't really know you, so I don't really know what to ask—"
"Looks like you'll be taking a shot then!"
"No thank you!" I said, "I can come up with something..."
"Tick tock..."
"Ha, funny," I smiled, "how about your phone number?"
"Alright," he agreed, smirking, and writing it down on a napkin which he then handed to me, "I guess it's my turn then..."
The bottle landed on Sean.
"Sean, I've known you for less than 24 hours so I hope you don't hate me after this! My question would have to be, how's your sex life with a kid around?"
Everyone began laughing at the fact that Ryan even asked that question.
"Hey, it was a serious question, you know, future reference..."
"Yeah, like you're ever going to settle down Ryan," Colin stated.
"You're right, but just in case..."
Everyone was giggling and hiding their smiles.
"It's great thanks for asking," Sean said, still fighting back the laughter, "ok now, my turn to spin."
The bottle landed on Colin...
"Well, since we seem to be getting personal... Who's the last person you had sex with?"
