Part 4, check out the previous stories for backstory!
Finally, fucking Friday night! I thought to myself as I came into my apartment and dumped my gym bag on the ground. It had been a long week and I had taken it out on myself by biking, squatting, benching, and doing sit ups until all my muscles ached.
I grabbed a cold white claw from the fridge and drained it while eating my takeout at the counter. Flipping through my texts I saw that some volleyball games were going down a few blocks away towards the campus. Sweet, a chance to play, and might as well get a little sandy before I shower anyway!
I texted I was on my way in the group chat and headed back out the door. There were definitely less people than usual here tonight but that meant that some games of 2's and 3's were open. I noticed that Jake was absent and he was usually there on Friday nights.
"Hey, do you know if Jake is coming tonight? I thought he was usually here with his friends?" I asked one of the other guys from the college.
"Nah he won't be coming tonight, it's his birthday so he's probably been drunk since noon anyway, probably wouldn't be any good out here!" He answered me joking.
"Haha probably then!" I said trying to be casual as we kept playing for another couple hours.
I had an insane sweat going and combined with my aching muscles and the amount of sun I had just gotten, it felt good to be walking back around 9 with the sun setting and the air turning cooler.
I sipped on some water on the walk and opened up my Snapchat, chuckling to myself as I watched Jake's stories of getting progressively more hammered as the day went on.
I typed out "Hey happy birthday, maybe I can give you your present sometime ;)" and hit send smiling to myself.
I wasn't expecting him to reply anytime soon, he was probably passed out somewhere anyway, but just as I got to my apartment stairs my phone buzzed.
I got inside and opened it up, "I think you have to do that tonight before my birthday ends...;). You at home?"
I smiled and replied, "just got back, about to shower."
"Mind if my buddy Dave crashes at your place tonight too? Think he might be more drunk than me..."
I switched on the shower water and thought about how to reply. Idk if he was out or if people knew he was gay or bi, I guess I had never asked him if he liked women too. And then was he trying to do a threesome inviting him or were we just crashing as friends? Oh well, yolo right? I thought as I responded.
"Sure thing, got plenty of room!"
I grabbed another white claw and climbed into the shower as he messaged me that they would be there in about a half hour.
I washed off all of the sand and sweat and honestly just chilled for more than a few minutes while some music played from my phone and I drank the claw. My aching muscles loving every second of the burning hot water.
I got out and dried off, grabbing a basic tee and athletic shorts to change into. No underwear, you know, just in case things got freaky. Then I just chilled on one of the bar stools, browsing my phone and doing a couple shots of whisky and chasing it with another white claw while I waited. I figured I would probably have to catch up anyway!
I didn't have to wait long until I got the message they were heading up the stairs and I heard a knock on the door. I walked over and opened the door to two very drunk and very handsome individuals!
"What up man, thanks for the place to crash!" Jake half yelled half mumbled out as he came inside. His friend Dave following right behind him.
"Hey I'm Dave." He said as normal as he could as he reached out to shake my hand.
"Nice to meet you, welcome to the drunk tank apparently!" I said joking.
