Luca pulled Rachel into him, hugging her tightly. It was not too tight to make it uncomfortable, but it was still lovely to fall asleep with someone in his arms. It was late, and besides, he was her ride home. "I like this much better." Luca ended up falling asleep with her close to him. Even though he threw up and was a bit sweaty, he didn't smell as bad as expected. Even if he did, he wasn't letting go of Rachel anytime soon. "Good night." He mumbled.
She grunted when she was pulled into a hug, quickly realizing that she wasn't going to get out of the hug anytime soon. She sighed, managing to squirm out of her jacket, so she would at least be more comfortable.
It fell onto the floor.
Now don't get a girl wrong, she wasn't planning on sleeping or anything. She just figured she would let him sleep off his drunkenness and then they could leave.
"Yeah yeah whatever, your lucky I don't punch you." She muttered under her breath in response to Luca.
"Good night." She sighed, finding herself relaxing a little bit in his arms.
She was tired..but no. She wouldn't let herself fall asleep.
She couldn't.
She moved to rub her drowsy eyes, some how Lucas body heat was comforting her. Make her more tired by the minute.
After an hour she could hardly keep her eyes open. Eventually she just said she would close her eyes for a quick power nap, which turned into just directly falling asleep.
It was about noon when he finally woke up. Luca took his time. His friend didn't notice that they slept in one of the rooms. He groaned and tried covering the window with his hand. However, the light was still streaming through. Luca felt the back of someone's bra, but he chalked it up to another random hookup. After all, he didn't remember anything from last night and he was practically naked. Then the hangover struck him like a bullet to the head. "God, mother…." He held his head trying to shake the feeling. "Hey…wake-" He looked down at the girl next to him. "Holy shit. Rachel?!" He yelled. Luca might as well have been shouting out of the whole city that he just fucked his best friend. At least, he thought he did. "How drunk was I, Jesus! Holy, she's going to kill me." He sat up slowly against the headboard. I mean she is kinda hot though…
(Just got off work so I should be able to respond :)
When he yelled her name she started to finally wake up, feeling the blankets coming off of them and feeling cold air rush in. She closed her eyes shut tightly, grumbling as she tried to pull the covers of her own bed, or what she thought was her own bed, onto her body so she could continue sleeping.
She didn't want to get up as she hadn't sleep the night before studying.
She was down right exhausted.
It was when she heard continued talking that made her stirr more, which then confused her because she knew that she didn't have a roommate.
"Whoever is there…I suggest you leave before I make you leave."
She spoke with venom, not opening her eyes. She didn't want to deal with life atm.
(Cool cool cool)
(Lol cool cool indeed)
"Rachel, It's me, Luca." He tried his best not to look at her, but his eyes danced over her features. Had she always looked like this? "Now, I know this doesn't look good, and I can explain. I probably can't explain because I was drunk, but listen, as long as we both stay come about this, we can piece together the night, I'm sure of it." he sputtered, too afraid to move. "I promise, I didn't mean to screw you last night. I just want to let you know that I'm sorry, and before you freak out, I can assure you we did use protection." He points to a tied-up condom in the garbage bin. However, that condom was theirs. It was someone else who had used the room previously and then left. "So, you're not possibly pregnant…" He made little jazz hands and gulped, ready for his death sentence.
She opened her eyes as she heard it was luca,
wait..Luca? Did I crash at his house or something?
She moved to sit up in the bee, the blanket falling off of her. She rubbed her face as she looked around and over to him as he was talking.
what's he saying..? it took her a few moments to really process his words, along with trying to remember what happened last night.
Once she realized she both couldn't remember last night, and processed fully what he had said her eyes widened.
"YOU DID WHAT?!" She yelled at him, probably letting the whole street block she was there. She immediately dashed for him, glaring at him. She wrapped her hands around his throat and pinned him down to the bed, her hair falling down her sides as she glared at him.
"choose your next words wisely" she spoke, her hands didn't have enough pressure to keep him from breathing but he could tell she was pissed.
They never left the party.
Did they really…?
No, no- she didn't remember them doing it, but she didn't remember what all happened last night before she fell asleep.
She kinda had a blush on her face that she hated.
"Listen, as hot as you are right now. I swear it was an accident. Maybe it wasn't because…" He trailed off as he didn't know where to put his hands. He gulped and grabbed her bare waist to get her off of him. Luca looked up at her, and he started to trail down, but he moved them back up slowly. This was all very new for him at the moment. Luca's hot best friend was on top of him, close to choking him out. Honestly, Luca could die right now, and he would be happy. "Listen, I don't think you want to be threatening me half-naked right now, but hey, I would not be opposed to it. Look, I don't remember last night, but we definitely, 100 percent did the deed together from the looks of it." Luca took a deep breath in and shut his eyes, preparing for the biggest punch in the face he would ever get.
"Close your eyes then idiot!" She yelled at him, pushing his face away from her and into the bed.
She tensed up almost immediately,realizing she wasn't wearing her dress or her jacket. She just punched him in the throat, hard. Though it shouldn't put him in danger its definitely going to hurt him.
Her face was probably bright red in embarrassment.
"Shut up!" She yelled at him as she stalked over to grab her jacket and put it on, zipping it up.
She exhaled, running a hand through her hand.
That's when she felt the hangover, rubbing her eyes.
I didn't drink that much did i…? she sighed groaning out loud.
She wanted to scream and punch things.
Luca bent over and coughed, holding his throat. "Listen, you can't just punch me like that." He stood up himself and looked around for his clothes. Immediately he regretted the choice because his head still felt like shit. "Okay, okay, just calm down alright. God, my head is killing me. Let's think this through maybe we didn't." He looked down at his pants which seemed to be loosely messeded with. "Or maybe we did. What's the last thing you remember?" He reasoned and tried his best to fix himself.
She just had a very intense aura around her, seeming like a creature that's been cornered and is ready to lash out when pushed too far.
"I will if I need too." She stared at him, having her fist pre-clenched.
She watched his every move, making sure she was prepared for anything he might do as if he was a threat. This was what it was like to be on the opposite side of Rachel, which was when she considers you not exactly her friend.
She didn't know how to feel about Luca, but she was still analyzing him.
She just glared at him, on edge like a street cat.
"….I don't exactly remember anything that happened before I fell asleep." She looked away, not wanting to admit there was a blank space in her memory that could have allowed them to do..something.
She ran a hand through her hair.
Luca tried to think of anything that might help them through this situation last night, but nothing. His mind was blank, and the last thing he could remember was walking into the house and dancing with her. Even that memory was a bit hazy. "Okay…" He picked up his shirt and slipped it over his head. "I can't think of anything either. I could've sworn I didn't drink that much. You know I would never do that to you, especially while you were drunk. I would never take advantage of you like that, but I guess I couldn't handle my liquor this time. I understand if you never want to speak to me again, but can we please work this out?" Luca zipped up his pants and combed his hair back.
She just watched him as he slipped on his shirt, she found herself staring slightly and quickly moved to look away at the wall. She didn't need more blush in her face as the first bit was calming down.
"I do remember you being incredibly drunk, you probably drank more then you remember, I don't know how much you were planning on drinking."
She shoved her hands in her pockets, staring him down.
"Wasn't long before you had yourself attached to the hip of the girl you said you were gonna cheer up.' She said, a bit bitter as she spoke in his direction. She figured it was safe to look at him now that he had a shirt on.
"Okay, okay….that does not help the case. What if we just-"
Suddenly the door slammed open, and there stood a guy half-dressed with messy hair and kiss marks all over him. "Hey! If you guys are done with your lover's quarrel, leave unless you're helping to clean up. Otherwise, move your ass!" Luca looked puzzled before remembering this wasn't his apartment but his friend's house. The friend then shut the door, and Luca looked back at Rachel.
Luca sighed. "Look, at least let me drive you home. I'll find some pain killers for this headache, and then we can leave and talk about it in the car. Is that okay?" Luca started to look for any painkillers in the room. There are some conveniently placed next to the bed along with some water. His friend probably put it there for him. "Hey, do you need some? There's plenty to go around." Luca popped two pills and drank the water to wash them down.
She glared at Lucas friend,
"We were just leaving, and It was not a lovers quarrel!" She clenched her fist, good thing they left or else Rachel would have picked a fight with them.
Lucas probably gonna have to keep her from getting into fights with basically everyone from her hangover, and she was in a bad mood.
I should have just walked home, I should have just walked home I should have just walked home-
She looked up when she heard him talk about pain killers, she walked over to them and took two pills dry.
She moved to grab some water and drink a bit before setting it down.
She tapped her foot impatiently as she waited to leave.
Luca pursed his lips together as Rachel took the pills. "Okay…" He opened the door and held his hand out. Luca cleared his throat nervously. "After you." Luca was not ready to be in a car with Rachel alone right now. There are so many things happening at the same time. It's that movie he watch except his life was genuinely in danger. He waved goodbye to his friend who only glared and he was gonna go over there and tussle him a little bit, but he needed to take Rachel home. "Okay, so what do you want to do? I'm like totally chill about this, I mean best friends screw each other all the time. I should know. One too many sleepovers with the boys."
Rachel just made her way past him without so much as a thank you for holding the door open. She was on a one track mind to the car, when she got in she put her seat belt on and looked out the window away from him.
"I'm not in the mood to hear about sleepovers with the boys, Luca." She spot, clearly mad still. She sighed, rubbing her face once more as she was still feeling tired.
She groaned as she thought about this stupid ordeal they had themselves in. She just wanted to see her dog colt and flop on her bed like none of this ever happened.
"Just take me home luca."
Luca swallowed his words and just nodded. He did as instructed and took her to the place where he picked her up last night. What could he say? He fucked up. What could he do? The empty silence in the car was killing him, but there was nothing he could say that would make anything better. When he got to the street and pulled over and unlocked the door. "Listen, Rachel, I'm sorry. I swear I didn't mean to."
She realized that she would have to end up walking home a good ways before she actually made it to her house.
"Save it." She pulled out her phone and set him her actual address.
"I'm giving you my actual home address, but I swear if you tell anyone, I will find out Luca. I'm not joking around, I will hurt you."
She glared at him, seemingly a completely different person then he had seen her previously.
"You got that?"
"Y-Yes, ma'am-sir-I-…yes…" He got it loud in clear as he pulled off from the sidewalk. This would've been a great time to get to know Rachel and hang out with her if the circumstances were different. However, they weren't, and he had to remember that. He didn't know what the house looked like, and he was too scared to ask Rachel any questions right now. So he kept driving until he got to the part where the number of her house was around.
"Stop here." She spoke, almost like a command to him.
Once he had stopped completely she unbuckled her seat belt and moved to open the car door. She made her way towards a small house with a one car garage, the outside was Grey.
She walked up the pathway to the door and unlocked it, cursing the whole situation. She opened the door and walked in, shutting it behind her.
She was greeted by colt her boxer, and she couldn't be any happier when he showed up.
"Hey boy! I'm sorry I was gone for so long, I'm sure you were hungry. Let's get you some food.'
She moved to get his food and pour it into his bowl before collapsing onto her couch.
Luca took the time to look at her house. It wasn't anywhere near close to his apartment in terms of quality. It wasn't a big house like his friend's, but Rachel's home. He smiled to himself. He felt a little closer to Rachel than he had before. He pulled off slowly after he made sure she got in okay. Luca was smiling on the ride home; however, he realized he probably lost his best friend forever or some stupid little drink when he got back. "Great…"
(Time skip to the next day?)
