Dana caste a discrete glance at Alice, Yeah.

Well then, Shane shifted uncomfortable with the tension. What about you Al?

I dont feel like it, Alice spat, glaring at her friend.

Tina? Shane asked desperately.

Tina smiled and almost laughed at her friends face, Sorry Shane, just not in the mood right now.

Alright then. Drinks on me, Shane sighed.

So no plan yet, Marissa whispered in her ear.

Oh theres a plan, Shane responded so only Marissa could here. Get them drunk off their *****.

Good plan, Marissa drawled.

Your sarcasm has been noted, Shane bit back.

Hey, sorry Im late, A slightly flustered Bette appeared behind them.

Bette, what are you doing here, Tonya smiled; obviously enjoying the new gossip she was sure to get.

Tina forced a smile, We are all friends. She has just as much right as the rest of us to be here.

Right, Bette took a seat on the opposite side of the table next to Marissa.

Well about those drinks, Alice grinned looking over at Shane.

Yeah, yeah, Shane grumbled getting up and ordering drinks.

Two hours later

Well I guess this is an improvement, Tina cocked her head.

Theyre not arguing anymore, Bette slurred slightly.

And you thought my plan wouldnt work, Shane smiled happily, obviously a little tipsy.

I dont know, it looks a little awkward, Marissa took a sip from her soda.

After an impromptu drinking contest Alice, Dana, and Tonya had started to do what bared the slightest resemblance to dancing. Right now Alice was sandwiched between Dana and Tonya, flailing around. So far they had managed to knock down three people and were looming near their fourth victim, it was like some absurd ***** dancing tornado.

Oh God, someone should save that poor woman, Tina pointed in the general direction of the fourth girl.

Ill be right back. You going to be okay? Shane asked Marissa.

Yeah, go save her, Marissa chuckled. Ill just sit here with my soda, pretending its liquor.

I am not going to be responsible for underage drinking, Shane tossed over her shoulder.

Like you never did, Marissa shot back.

Shane caste Marissa a devilish grin before disappearing into the crowd. The Hispanic chick about to be pummeled by the Alice-Dana-Tonya drunken bloodbath was rather cute looking; itd be a pity to have her become the next casualty. She reached the girl just as Tonyas waving fist was nearing this innocent womans head. Thinking quickly she yanked her close, narrowly avoiding Danas kicking legs. Apparently Dana had started to do the cancan. Shaking her head, she saw Alice doing what she thought looked like the Macarena. Tonya, well Tonya just looked like a deranged spinning top.
