Joey and I were hanging out on a typical Monday night, we had school the next day but we didn't care.
We were both 17 and we had planned on playing kings (a drinking game) since my parents are never home and we both just failed our finals. His parents are basically mine since we have always been best friends and they love me sm and I love them sm too.
We had three bottles of liquor thanks to my brother!
One huge bottle of Jack Daniels, raspberry vodka and cotton candy vodka.
The rules for kings are easy:
Ace: Waterfall - Every player begins drinking, and no one can stop until the player before them does
2: You - Whoever drew the card assigns a drink
3: Me - Whoever drew the card drinks
4: Floor - Everyone races to touch the floor, last person to do so drinks
5: Guys - All guys drink
6: Chicks - All girls drink
7: Heaven - All players point towards the sky, last player to do so drinks
8: Mate - Pick a person to drink with
9: Rhyme - Say a phrase, and everyone else must say phrases that rhyme
10: Categories - Pick a category, and say something from that category (i.e. if "drinking games" was the category, "kings" would be a viable answer.
Jack: Never have I ever - Each player puts up 3 fingers, then starting with the person who drew the card, each player says "never have I ever ". If you've done it, you put a finger down, until someone loses
Queen: Questions - The person who drew the card asks a random person a question, and they then turn and ask a random person a question, until someone loses by either failing to ask a question or by responding to the person who just asked them a question
King: Ruler - Make a rule that everyone must follow until the next King is drawn (i.e. force everyone to drink after each turn)
*short time skip*
Joey and I were blackout drunk but I still knew what was going on because I kill my liver on a daily basis by drinking, but by now we had gone to a party.
I couldn't find Joey anywhere... he swore he wouldn't leave me because he knows I have terrible social anxiety.
I walked around trying to find him but I couldn't so I went outside and tried to catch my breathe.
Somehow there were more people outside than inside.
Instantly I felt my lungs squeeze and I knew I had to leave but Joey had my car keys because he always sobers up first.
I pulled out my phone to call him, he picked up instantly.
"Joey I wanna go home, I can't breathe." I cried into my phone
"I don't wanna leave." He whined
"Fine. Then I'm just gonna walk. Bring my car to me later I guess."
"Whatever bitch." He said hanging up
Instantly I began to run not only because my anxiety but because now I know I made him mad at me which caused my depression and paranoia to join in on the screams inside my head.
I could barely breathe and I was now full on crying.
When I got to my front door I realized my apartment keys were with my car keys.
Joey has all my keys and my car and all my money.
I can't believe I seriously trusted him with everything.
I sat on my porch and pulled out my phone to call him once more, he picked up instantly but this time a girl answered
"Hello?" She said
"Put Joey on the phone." I said shakily
"No, also who is this." She spat
"His best friend, seriously I need to talk to him." I cried
"Well your contact name is bae with a bunch of emojis so I don't believe you also I'm his girlfriend and I'm going to block you number so bye." She said hanging up
Joeys p.o.v.
"Hey why do you have my phone?" I asked my friend Ashley
"Because I just told some girl off." She said rolling her eyes
"Who?!" I said as my heart raced hoping she wouldn't say her name
"Whoever 'bae' with a bunch of emojis is"
"You're so stupid, that's my bestfriend, I have her keys, car and money. I'm supposed to go see her soon" I yelled at Ashley
"Whatever we're through" she yelled
"WE WERE NEVER EVEN DATING" I yelled back as I sped out the door with all of mine and my best friends things.
"Great now I gotta call Noel and apologize to her." I sighed into my hands feeling stupid for even thinking about leaving my phone alone with Ashley
I searched for her contact but I couldn't find it.
I shrugged it off and decided to drive to her house instead.
I stopped at Tacobell to get her favorite when my phone went off from a twitter notification from her saying "I just wanna die."
I instantly took the food and left speeding all the way to her house afraid of what I might find.
