A Girl's Night Out/“Sure, I’ll have another.”
From Create Your Own Story
She orders another round for the both of you, and you take the shot more easily than before, welcoming the return of that sweetness. Each drink relaxes you more and more, until for some reason, everything seems really funny and amazing. Ten shots, and you feel ready to take on the world.
Your companion holds her liquor a bit better, but she’s still clearly tipsy. “That enough for you?” she asks, her voice slightly slurred.
“I think so,” you giggle. The sensation of condensed alcohol is buzzing within you. It feels warm. Or maybe that’s just her arm around your waist, pulling your barstools a bit closer together. Her leather jacket rubs against the thin fabric of your dress.
“Y’know,” she murmurs into your ear, “I’m real glad you came today. I was havin’ a pretty hard time with work an’ all, but you cheered me up.”
Everything is happening in slow motion. You lean back into her arm, letting your head rest on her shoulder. The jacket is cool against your burning face. “Wasn’ it just the booze?”
“Course not. Anything’s always better with a beautiful girl.”
She runs her other hand through your long hair, lulling you into a trance. Falling asleep here would be really nice. You grip the loose leather between your fingers and hug her arm snuggly. You’ve always wanted to hold onto a woman like this.
“Hey,” she whispers, lowering her face to your level. “Can I kiss you?”
