Rose and Crown: Beer me.

[Connor Marshall]

"Oh, and she's modest to top it all off. Lovely," Connor chuckled as he set a couple more drinks on the counter for them.

[Rachel O'Brien]

"Hey, I'm in touch with reality." Rachel said, right before she nuzzled Melody's neck.

[Melody Martens]

Melody inhaled sharply, a smile crossing her face as well as an impressive blush.

[Rachel O'Brien]

"Like that?" Rachel whispered, nibbling her ear.

[Melody Martens]

"Maaaaaaybe," she giggled.

[Rachel O'Brien]

"Why don't we continue this somewhere less public?" Rachel whispered.

[Melody Martens]

"I...sure," she smiled, a bit drunkenly.

[Rachel O'Brien]

A few minutes later, the girls were standing outside, waiting for the bus "So, your place or mine?" Rachel asked, giggling.

[Melody Martens]

"Why not yours?" she said, hooking her arm into Rachel's. "Then we can replace any memories of the winged douchebag being in your room with...well whatever winds up happening," she giggled.

[Connor Marshall]

Back in the bar, Connor sighed and kept cleaning glasses.

[Melody Martens]

"Connor's pretty hot....Do you have his number? Do you think he'd come....hang out with us?" she giggled.

[Rachel O'Brien]

"I don't." Rachel said, as she stumbled up the steps of the bus "Maybe we could call the bar. I bet I can find the number."

[Melody Martens]

The bus driver eyed the girls warily as they took (or fell, in Melody's case) into their seats. "Oh my god I have never done *anything* like this before," she giggled, snuggling up against Rachel.

[Rachel O'Brien]

"I haven't either. Well, not the going home with a amazingly hot chick bit." Rachel said, giggling "Just a couple of sleepovers gone wild. Isn't it totally awesome?"

[Melody Martens]

"Yesssss," she giggled. "Let's call him when we get home....eventually."

[Rachel O'Brien]

"Yeah, no need to call him right away...." Rachel giggled as she nuzzled Melody's neck "Oh, hey, this is our stop."

[Melody Martens]

"Then let's get out of here," she giggled, standing up and pulling up Rachel with her, and making a quick exit back to the dorms (much to the bus driver's relief.)

[Rachel O'Brien]

"I need to sit down for a sec and catch my breath." Rachel said, as the approached a bench.

[Ryan Gabriel]

Meanwhile, Ryan was just about to text Rachel (again) when he caught sight of the girls. The hell...?

[Melody Martens]

"Okay," she smiled, joining her, but falling off the rear of the backless bench as she drunkenly plopped down.

She was practically cackling, and laid there a moment before she picked herself up, dusted off, and sat down again, this time leaning in without warning and giving Rachel a rather pleasant kiss on the neck that turned into a soon-to-be impressive hickey.

[Rachel O'Brien]

Rachel laughed, and then started making other noises as Melody left the hickey, her own hands starting to wander.

[Ryan Gabriel]

That answers that... Ryan thought turning and heading (rather dispirited) back to the dorms.

[Rachel O'Brien]

"We should get inside." Rachel said, a little breathlessly, reaching for her bag, and realizing, for the first time, that her phone was buzzing.

[Ryan Gabriel]

Rachel's phone would have been blown up with texts, ranging from irritated comments about bratty students to trying to meet up with her. Highlights included:

Code: Select all

Y'know, technically if I knock each of these kids unconscious, their powers would be under control, right?

Code: Select all

This is me not eating through lesson plans so I can take my girlfriend out to dinner in an hour or so.  Y'know, if she wants to. ;)

Code: Select all

Texting the sexy girl that I love makes these go faster.

Code: Select all

Now I'm just trying to see where I can make your phone vibrate.  Love you!

Code: Select all

Aaaaand... Maybe I should have texted BEFORE I went to your room.  Where're you at, babe?

Code: Select all

Okay, just walking around while I wait for you to get back.  Love you!

Code: Select all

Everything ok, babe?  We still have time to catch dinner if you want.

Code: Select all

Hellooooooo!  Love you! :D

Code: Select all

...So I guess you don't want to go to dinner tonight?

And most notably, as she looked,

Code: Select all

Fine.  I get it.  Have a good night.

[Rachel O'Brien]

Rachel blinked as she scrolled through her texts. ".......dammit......"

[Melody Martens]

As they wandered back towards the dorms together, Rachel squinting at her phone, Melody swerved back and forth across the path drunkenly, finally tripping over the decorative brickwork lining the path and tumbling onto the wet grass and landing face down. This was of course hilarious, and she cackled accordingly, blissfully unaware of her companion's textual revelation.

[Rachel O'Brien]

"OMG!" Rachel said as she headed over to help Melody up "Are you ok?"

[Melody Martens]

She kept laughing and rolled onto her back, nodding. "I'm fine," she finally sighed. "Who was textin' ya?"

[Rachel O'Brien]

"Ryan." she replied "And it doesn't look like he was busy. Or else he was trying to cover his tracks."

[Melody Martens]

"Dyou..do you wanna go checkonim...," she slurred from her back on the ground.

[Rachel O'Brien]

"Yeah, I probably should." Rachel said "First, you need to get back to your room, cutie."

[Melody Martens]

"What? No. Go get your man back," she slurred. "This grass is so soft. I could just sleep right here..."

[Rachel O'Brien]

"No." Rachel said, hefting Melody to her feet "I'll get you to your room, then I'll go find my man."

[Melody Martens]

"Okayyyyy," she giggled, almost falling again and bringing Rachel with her. "You....you gotta tell me what happens, kay? If you nneed me still, I'll be right in my room waiting," she said, trying hard to exaggerate her syllables to sound a bit more sober.

[Rachel O'Brien]

"I'll tell you." Rachel said "I hope I won't see you until tomorrow. No offense, or anything."

[Melody Martens]

"Me too," she lied, smiling as they reached her door. She pulled out her keys and fumbled with them for a good 2 minutes before she found her key.

[Rachel O'Brien]

"Ok, I'll see you later." Rachel said, giving her a quick hug.

[Melody Martens]

"Good luck," she smiled drunkenly before stumbling into her room and making a beeline for the restroom, where her body reminded her why you don't do as many shots as she did.

im never going to get laid again, am I? she moped to herself while she hugged the toilet, half sprawled on the floor.
