...Hello?

skinwhiteassnow-lipsredasbl-blog

Yes, fine. Just sort of wondering where everyone is.

derek-obrien

Well it is Memorial Day Weekend. Vacation perhaps?

I'm surprised you weren't given time off as well.

Addison?

Mmph-

#convo: addison #he lets out a surprised noise but the hand that tucked the piece of hair behind her ear tangles into it drawing her closer to him #his feet somehow stumble at the force of her pressing herself up against him #what is happening it is way too late for this shit to be going down

Um… I um…

derek-obrien

That was...I'm sorry. Was that - bad?

#HE'S CLOSER TO HER. JUST PRETEND.#convo: addison #his hand reaches to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear but his other hand that is snaked around her waist pulls her slightly closer

Wait. This is - well, this isn't -

#convo: addison #he seems almost startled for a momenet but the alcohol keeps him going but after a moment he pulls back #PRETEND HE LOOKS MORE BEWILDERED

It’s late! Alright, let me get my leg…

derek-obrien

#convo: addison #he manages to some how f up the pull #and suddenly his chest isn't his chest anymore and their lips meet for a moment by accident #and really without thinking he kisses her #BLAME IT ON THE ALCOHOL

Hm…. What about this?

Okay, I didn’t really think this through.

derek-obrien

You really didn't. Come on, get up.

#convo: addison #he splutters out a laugh #even though his face is red from the proximity and he tries to untangle himself #and when he does he kind of stumbles up in front of the couch #swaying because he's unsteady on his feet and he holds out a hand to her

Maybe that’s part of your problem…

There.

derek-obrien

Wha -

...Alright. So. I feel uncomfortable. I think this was the opposite of what you wanted me to do.

Maybe I did, maybe I didn’t. Perhaps there’s some good left in this cold heart of mine…

Well, then relax. Take your shoes off. Kick back.

derek-obrien

Letting someone win at a drinking game is your version of kindness? Strange.

This is just how I sit.

#convo: addison #but he does slip his shoes off

Irish after all… I have to say, I’m impressed

Well, you win. For now… Feeling any better yet?

derek-obrien

...No. That is a definite no. Also, I'm positive you may have let me win. Not that I'm complaining.

#convo: addison #wincing because alcohol burns kids #but he does look a bit more relaxed

derek-obrien

Addison?

I’m glad to hear you’re getting with the program…

You ready?

derek-obrien

#convo: addison #he gives her a look but after a moment he sighs and nods his consent before counting down with his fingers #KNOCKING THEM BACK LIKE AN IRISH CHAMP #HE HAS THOMAS FOR A BROTHER #HE LEARNED #somehow

None of which are a clear and present danger…

Tell you what. I’ll grab a few shot glasses. If you can down three before me, you’re off the hook. If not, spill the beans.

derek-obrien

I get the feeling even if I say no that you'll still insist anyway.

I’m not just sitting here, holding this bottle, you know. And you see that empty vodka bottle there? It didn’t empty itself… Technically, I’m way ahead of you.

So, tell me or I’m using the pillow threat again…

derek-obrien

I've had worse threats, Addison.
