"Fuck him. He was an asshole anyway," Kristen said in an annoyed tone while referring to my now ex boyfriend Jordan.
"Yeah but he was my asshole," I answer in a pout. "Not to mention the asshole dumped me so I don't even get to save face."
"That is exactly why tonight is what the doctor ordered. We're young and free let's go get in some trouble," Kristen said as she grabbed my hand and pulled my inside the club.
She was right. A night of reckless abandon was what I needed. I prepared my mind for a clearing out...mind altering substances and a little trouble would make my problems go away...for now at least. I knew there was a reason I called her. As we walked through the club we spotted our friends sitting at a booth in the back corner. Kristen had called them earlier from my house to organize my "breaking up" party as she called it.
"Whoa, look how hot someone got without her douche bag boyfriend attached," Joe said when I reached the table.
"She's gonna have to beat the guys off with a stick tonight." Robyn chimed in.
"Way more fuckable now. I know I'd do her," Dan said with a smirk.
I just shook my head and sat down at the booth. My own personal kiss ass team.
"Thanks guys," I said smiling at them. My friends had the same sarcastic cocky sense of humor I did. They knew I needed to joke about this rather than talk it out if I wanted to feel better. Just then a waitress appeared with 5 drinks.
"I ordered us speed chasers," Joe said.
"Oh shit. I'm waking up in someone else's bed tomorrow," Robyn said as she took her drink.
"Mine," Dan said as he slid closer to her in the booth and put his arm around her shoulder.
"There's not enough alcohol in Philly for that to happen," Robyn responded as she pushed his arm away.
We all laughed. There's no way we'd know but I thought we invented speed chasers, or at least we didn't know what they're really called if someone already did. They were a mixture of Mt. Dew, Monster and Vodka. After a couple of these you were bouncing off the fucking walls with out a care in the world. I already had a rather free spirit when I drank, these only brought on an extra level of hyper to that.
"I brought party favors," Dan said with a grin as he dumped a small pile of pills on the table in front of him.
"No way. I'm not doing ecstasy on top of chasers," I protest as the rest of the group grab a pill.
"Why not?" Joe asked as he swallowed his.
"Cuz you know how I get when I'm drunk and you know how I am on ex. I aint mixing them," I defend.
"Ah c'mon you're not that bad on either," Kristen said.
"I'd be an overly hyper touchy feely whore with out the word no in her vocabulary," I returned.
"I think I'd be in love," Dan teased.
"Ah fuck it," I said and downed the hit with my drink.
After another speed chaser and a second hit of ecstasy I was really starting to feel the effects of what was in my system.
"Oh. My. God. They have paint booths. We so need to glow in the dark," I squeaked at Kristen when walked out of the bathroom.
"You are all kinds of fun tonight girl. Let's do it," Kristen said as we went over to the booth. The booth was about the size of a bathroom stall and it shot out all different colors of neon paint. It was like getting a spray tan only the color wasn't even.The paint sprayed out leaving droplets everywhere. When we were satisfied we were completely covered head to toe we walked out of the booth.
"You look hot. Let me get a picture. You gotta Face Book this shit," Kristen said as she looked me over.
I was wearing what was once a white wife beater and a light faded denim mini skirt. She took the picture and showed it to me.
"No way that's getting posted. I look like a Jackson Pollock rip off," I argue.
"You look cool as hell. This is rave night ya know. Most people look like you," Kristen reasoned.
"I think you look pretty sexy," I heard a deep husky voice say into my ear from behind me.
"Well who the f...." I start to say as I turn around to see who is butting into our conversation. I froze mid sentence as I looked up at the most gorgeous man I had ever laid eyes on. He was just over 6 ft with a nice solid build. His features were almost too perfect. He had the most amazing green eyes, a strong bone structure and the fullest sexiest lips that I wanted to latch mine to and never separate. He was wearing a fitted dark and light brown plaid shirt he had rolled up to his elbows and a pair of tight medium blue distressed jeans.
"...uck asked you?" I manage to finish. "I mean uh thanks. Sorry. I didn't mean to be a bitch. I'm the dumped drunk chick tonight."
He gave me an adorable smirk. He clearly had this effect on women before and was a little cocky about it. I found it sexy. Jesus Christ. Why the fuck did I just tell him that? I'm too drunk to keep my dumb shit to myself and not drunk enough to not care I'm making an asshole out of myself.
"Don't tell me some looser ruined it for the rest of us," he returned with a smile.
