House Warming Party! Open to everyone!

[mightbeconcussed]

Lucy surveyed the house, assuring herself that everything was ready for the party. The back french doors were open to the beach outside. There was a keg on the porch along with cups. The tiki bar she'd bought was set up on the porch also. She had on the new Betsey Johnson dress she'd bought just for the occasion but her feet were bare. She didn't see the point in putting on heels if she was going to be out in the sand.

She turned her ipod on, tuning it to the party playlist she'd made and wandered behind the bar to make herself a drink in a pink disposable martini glass.

"Jill! Everyone will be here soon!" she yelled at her room mate and best friend.

Jill slowly put her feet to the ground, allowing Harry his mobility. "They make me uncomfortable. But it's okay. You're here!" She smiled up to him and laced her fingers with him. "Let's go get you a drink."

"That sounds great." He said with a smile. He couldn't remove the smile off his face if he tried. Being around her just made him like that.

They weaved though the remaining party goers hand in hand and headed outside to where the bar was set up. "So, how many drinks do I have to have before I catch up to you?" He'd never seen Jill tipsy before and like a good boyfriend ... he couldnt help but be a bit concerned.

"Five of these... or maybe six. No wait! This is seven." Jill beamed a smile to Harry, and then sipped at her drink again. Her free hand slipped into one of the back pockets of Harry's jeans. "You could have seven too! But I bet you still won't be as inebriated as I am."

The older man flashed her a sly sort of look as her hands found a way to his rear.

"Course I won't, I'm about twice the size of you."

Harry moved right passed the lovely bar with its vast array of spirits and headed right to the keg. He released himself from her grasp to pour a beer.

"Why a party on Wednesday babe ... Do you have a class in the morning?"

He took a long draw from his freshly poured beer and waited for her response.

"Weee're being bad and skipping! And Wednesday just because. It's the worst day in the week and everyone is sad just wanting Friday to come so Wednesday." Jill rambled, her words slurring together and her Southern accent more thick than normal.

Harry sometimes forgot that Jill was a southern girl, her accent was usually slight and she had a lot of northern sensibilities. He couldn't help but smile at her accent and her intoxicated ramble.

"My overachiever is being a bad girl? Should I be worried about you ..." He took another long slow sip of his beer and his smile had broadened. "or is this the kind of bad girl that every boy wishes for?"

"You better be wishing for me. And no worries. Back to buisness the day after... or... I mean the day after the day after." Jill lightly poked Harry in the side and wrinkled her nose around a smile. "I'm confusing me."

She hugged him. "God I still can't believe you're here!"

"I am always wishing for you." He said with a charming smile.

Harry hugged her back tightly. His right arm clung to her back and kept her body close close to him. Gloved fingers of his left hand brushed silken brown strands away from her face.

"Are you really that surprised?" He murmured softly. "Wasn't there a part of you that thought maybe I might find a way to be with you tonight?"
