I'm distracted the entire time.
Jay tries to get me to eat but I politely decline. The image of Kain and that girl can't leave my mind. I know I shouldn't care and that was none of my business but I still feel a pang of jealousy every time my mind goes there.
When Jay finally gets tired of my drama, he literally forces food down my throat.
Kain is nowhere to be seen. I assume he went to hook up with whoever that bitch was. I dislike both of them.
"What the fuck is going on with you? You are acting all distracted!" Jay practically yells when he can't take my mood anymore.
"I'm okay. Just tired." I lie smoothly.
"You don't look tired; you look sad." He counters; his eyes narrowing at me, trying to figure out what is wrong with me.
I stay quiet and rest my head back on the couch. It's just a few minutes past 2300hours and the party mood is crazy. The living room has been converted into a dance floor and it's all smoky.
The kids have been drinking and smoking endlessly and they've also been doing some other unimaginable stuff. I'm totally grossed out from all the smoking and drinking and kissing going on around me. I've never been in such a situation before and it's outright nauseating.
Zac is deejaying; expertly mixing the music while Ethan is busy getting wasted. He has been drinking beer after beer and he seems to be fazing out. He keeps passing Jay hateful glares and Jay of course doesn't give a flying fuck.
George is seated on the other end of the room watching Jade silently. His look is longing and hopeful and I wish Jade would just hear him out. They love each other; that's obvious. He has a beer in hand but he is barely drinking it.
Jade herself is on the dance floor. She is wearing a short jungle green dress and silver high heels with red bottoms. Her hair is flowing down one shoulder and she looks as breathtaking as always. She moves sensuously; seductively, and if I know Jade at all, then she is just doing that to spite George.
"Let's go to the kitchen. I need a drink." Jay tells me.
"I'll be right here. You go ahead."
His eyes move to Ethan who is eyeing me like a hawk.
"I don't trust him. He has been drinking so his judgement is clouded. Let's just go puppy face."
Giving in, I let him hold my hand and lead me to the kitchen.
Party cups are strewn on the counter and several bottles of alcohol are placed there. A few crates of beers are on the kitchen floor.
A couple is making out in the corner and Jay hastily kicks them out, telling them to get a bush already.
Surely.
He sniffs a party cup then serves himself a drink from the counter after ensuring that it's unused.
Jade chooses that moment to breeze in, hobbling a bit in her high heels. She laughs a bit too loudly when she sees us and her laughter is definitely off. She staggers and that's when I realize she is drunk.
Jay catches her when she stumbles and nearly falls then pushes her into a chair.
"You two look so cute together but I don't ship you." She says with a belch. "You would make totally beautiful babies but I want Bella with Kain."
Then she bursts out laughing.
What the hell?
"What did you drink?" Jay asks while stifling his laughter. I don't even find it funny.
"Sparkling water." She replies, letting out another cackle.
"You must have taken a shit ton of it." Jay speculates and she nods.
"Yes, a lot. It's not everyday that we get to drink all this shit so I might as well make good use of it. I just want to forget."
"Forget what?" I ask, a bit confused and she laughs bitterly.
"Forget how much it's killing me when I remember George kissing that snake. It hurts like a bitch!"
"Maybe you should give him a chance to explain?"
She shakes her head.
"Explaining won't get that shit out of my head. I'm stuck with that image." She burps loudly. "And you know the worst part? He texted me to go and witness it!"
"George didn't text you." Jay says and she narrows her eyes at him.
"Are you calling me a liar? You know what? All of you are stupid liars. You, Kain and Zac knew that George was cheating on me."
"We didn't know anything and George didn't have any intentions of cheating. It was a one time kiss which only happened because they had something against him! You should really hear him out. He loves you, Jade."
She rolls her eyes. "I'm sure he does. I want me some alcohol. Gimme some buddy."
"You've had enough. You need to lie down." Jay commands and she rolls her eyes yet again.
"Yes daddy."
Without warning, she grabs Jay's cup and gulps down the entire shit. She sputters after swallowing then grins at us.
"That was some strong shit. I'm a very drunk human being right now." She slurs then laughs.
"I'm going to find my man. The first thing a drunk female wants is her man."
"George?" I ask without thinking.
"Of course darling. I'm a one man woman."
"You didn't want to talk to him a minute ago."
She laughs drunkenly.
"I was younger and sober then. It's been a whole one minute. A lot of stuff happens in a minute. People die, others become pregnant, some are dumped..."
"Okay, that's enough. I'm going to get George. Don't move." Jay orders and she laughs again while getting seated.
"Yes daddy."
I shake my head. Alcohol makes people look outright ridiculous. Ten minutes ago, Jade didn't even want to see George but right now she wants him. That's almost amusing. Whatever they do, I hope they'll talk out their differences.
"You should drink something. This shit is awesome." She tells me with her slurred speech.
"I'm not drinking anything."
"Why not? Stop being like that. Let yourself loose and enjoy your life once in a while. We are not in this world to stay."
"Jade, you are drunk."
She grins. "Congratulations! You found out. I want my man."
"Jay went to get him for you."
"He should get yours too."
"I don't have a man, Jade."
"If you drink a single shot, you will realize that you actually have one. Trust me honey, alcohol boosts your sight. Like, George looks like a prince tonight. "
I hide my smile.
"Really?"
"Yeah. Don't get me wrong; he always looks handsome.. Like he is so good looking I could literally eat him whole; alive, but tonight it's top notch. Even the way he walks and talks is turning me on."
