True I know how Eric is about coming to bars like this. But then why should I care. Hes grown up. He can make his own decisions. So can all the dim witted girls that he insists on bringing along. He knows that some of them are curious and not at all caring about his feelings when theyre approached by women. Some of them even try to go after me. But you know…never mind.

“Im not doing that Alice. Im just looking after Eric.” She gives me this look. At least I think she is. Its getting darker in here.

“I dont believe you, you know that right?” Man, why is it that interruptions arent available when you need them. Where is Shane or even Grace. Oh Grace, I have to find her tonight.

“Hey, Porter, eyes here. I am still talking to you, remember?”

“How can I forget Al, your only in my head 24 hours out of the day.”

“I am?” She asks beaming.

“Yeah, youve replaced the voice of my nagging mother.”Her face fell. Not what she wanted to hear I know. That was a little harsh “Hey, sweets, Im just kidding. No, really thank you for the stern taking to. How ever will I repay you?” Forgive me, in my drunken stupor I thought that was a honest question.

“Well since you asked, how about an inappropriate kiss?” I think she was joking. So I laugh kinda of waiting for her to join me. But she didnt she got up and moved to the other side of the table where I was. ***** this is going to be awkward.

“Alice no. It was a joke.”

“Well Im not joking BP.” She dropped her voice from its usual light breezy tone to a low ***** growl that I could only hear.

“Seriously Alice. We talked about this before I got here. You said that you would not be uncomfortable with me living out here.”

“Do I look uncomfortable right now Bette.” ***** she is really close right now. So close her breast are rubbing against my arm. I got to stop this. Now.

Half whispering-half hissing I said: “Alice, dont.” I had to jerk my head away to be released from the grip she had on my face. Only I jerked too fast and Im still a little buzzed, so of course to make ths night even more fun, I fell off my stool.
