“Oh look it’s you, the embodiment of an actual angel here to bless me”
Random sentence starters.
Having received a number of drunken texts and phone calls, Claire was rather surprised to find Henrik still able to sit upright when she finally arrived at the Grill. She couldn’t say the same for Tyler, who was passed out asleep at the bar or Jared, who didn’t even seem to be speaking English anymore as he ordered another round for them. Apparently their boys night playing video games had turned into drinking the town pub dry.
Starting toward the trio of trouble, Jared notes her approach with amusement and elbows Henrik knowingly. “Your girlfriend is here,” he teases, giggling as if they were both back in elementary school and his buddy’s crush was approaching their lunch table. She wondered just how much a hybrid had to drink to be as wasted as he clearly was.
As Henrik spun around on his stool to greet her, Claire thought he might just fall off and crack his head wide open. Fortunately he didn’t. “Oh look it’s you, the embodiment of an actual angel here to bless me”
She just barely manages to suppress a laugh. Right about now all that alcohol probably had him thinking that he was dripping with irresistible charm; a true ladies man. In his defense though, she found his drunken idiocy rather adorable. It was all very… Henrik. Just less sober. “Very smooth. I bet you use that one on all the girls though,” she comments with a smirk as Jared nearly topples over with laughter next to him.
“You know, you’re lucky that you’re very cute because I don’t do these 3AM calls for just anybody.” She informs him as the bartender returns with another round. Before he has the chance to take it, Claire moves the whiskey out of his reach. “No, no. I think you’ve had more than enough for tonight, Romeo. I’m taking you home where you’re going to drink about a gallon of water and go to bed, got it?”
Leaving him no room to argue, not that he would win anyway, she helps him down and wraps a supportive arm around his waist. “Oh and Jared? I’d get home before your wife kills you.”
