All the n had taken the phrase "party hardy" to a new level, so they were all falling down drunk. Everyone except Tom, who only drank a little -- an ergency could crop up at any ti. Even Gerard was three sheets to the wind. Luke had to drive him to the hotel.
"Leena, my brother's really drunk," Claire said with concern. Kevin rested his head on her shoulder.
"Yeah. As long as his stomach's okay, he'll be better after a nap." Leena said, glancing at Kevin in the rear view mirror periodically. She was driving her family back ho.
"They're quite good at drinking. Everyone needs a hobby, I guess. At least they are quiet," Claire said. Most of the ti, her friends acted like idiots when they were drunk. So of them even started bar brawls, or harassed people on the streets. But Leena's friends were all quiet and peaceful, and that was a rare scene for her.
"It's a question of character. So can control themselves while drunk, which is quite a feat. These guys are all high-class, they don't get rude just because they've had a few." Leena was always very proud of this. She didn't have to worry about getting groped or whatever, even when her friends couldn't see straight.
"What about Kevin? Is he like that, too?" Claire asked in curiosity. She'd never seen her brother drunk. Except this ti.
Leena looked at him in the mirror, saw him half-dozing in the car. "Take a look. Does he act like your friends?" Leena asked with a dazzling smile. She thought Claire was a lovely girl when she wasn't being an unbearable shrew.
"True," Claire said, scratching her head in embarrassnt.
Leena didn't continue the subject but took a glance at Claire. She knew about her crush on Rain, and ant to ask her about it. Maybe spark a discussion. Considering Kevin was there, she decided to table it for later. Although Kevin was drunk, it didn't an that he wouldn't overhear and figure it out. She didn't need his two cents in this. So she decided to wait till she could talk to Claire woman to woman.
When they got back to the Grand Apartnt, Leena and Claire cooperated, horsing Kevin inside. Luckily, Kevin showered after work, so he wouldn't dirty the bed. They just finally threw him into the
half an hour, I'd have to rethink our friendship," Louisa said. She knew what Claire cared about, so she liked to use this as a threat. It worked every ti, too.
"Got it. I'll be quick," Claire said, throwing her phone on the bed angrily. She would have just turned it off last night if she knew this would happen. Of course, Louisa would quit calling her or knocking so early.
Claire reminded herself of the ti limit which Louisa had laid out. She even didn't put on make-up but simply applied lotion and lipstick and then rushed downstairs. She didn't even let Kevin and Leena know.
"Did I make it on ti?" Claire asked, getting in the car breathlessly, her hand patting her chest to calm down.
"You ARE a bad girl. Look at those dark circles under your eyes. What did you do last night?" Louisa asked in a cold voice, starting the car.
"Uh! Is it obvious? Ugh! This is all your fault! You didn't even give ti to put on makeup! We weren't even ho till 1 last night," Claire said, taking the mirror from her purse and looking at her reflection.
"You went out to play last night. Who with? Why didn't you call ?" Louisa said reproachfully. 'Okay, so maybe Claire can't help as much as I thought. So who else can I get?' Louisa thought.
"Um… Well. I couldn't do that. Not my party, not my choice," Claire said. If she weren't Leena's sister-in-law, she wouldn't have been invited. She knew that implicitly. So how could she invite Louisa to tag along?
