“Alright,” Kyla stated. 

Paula turned off the light and everybody crouched down.  They all heard a fumbling sound.  Ashley got up and everyone looked at Ashley.  “Alright, everybody stay here,” began Ashley.  I’ll go see what’s going on with the guest of honor.”  Ashley opened the door and saw a very drunk Spencer on the ground.  She closed the door behind her.

“Hey, Ash!” slurred Spencer.  “You got the door open!” Spencer clapped and Ashley helped Spencer up.

“A-are you drunk?” Ashley asked with concern.

“No,” giggled Spencer.  Ashley gave Spencer an unconvinced look.  “Yes, I am.  I h-had some drinks at Gray.  I w-was celebrating my a-academic achievement.  It’s not every day that you get student of the month.  I thought you and Kyla w-were going to the movies tonight.  What are you doing here?”

“Babe, how d-did you get home?” Ashley questioned with curiosity.  “No, I wouldn’t cancel plans with you for going to a lame movie with my sister.”

“You have nothing to worry about,” slurred Spencer.  “I took a cab to get home.  You look so hot tonight.”  Spencer pulled Ashley to her lips.  Ashley wrapped her arms around Spencer’s waist and the kiss became more heated.  Spencer tangled her fingers in Ashley’s hair.  Ashley pulled back from the kiss.  “Your breath tastes funny, Ash.”  Spencer giggled and Ashley couldn’t help, but laugh as well.

“That’s yours hon,” Ashley pointed out amused.  “Are you going to be okay? We have to go inside.  I threw you a surprise party for working so hard at school to get that student of the month award.  I know that you were upset that all you got was a pin.” 

“A party for me?” said Spencer giddily.  That is so awesome!

“Yep, for you,” Ashley replied.  “Your parents are in there as well as your friends.”

“No!” said Spencer.

“Yes!” Ashley said.

“No, no, no,” groaned Spencer.  “My parents have never seen me drunk… that they know of.  I a-am so going to get grounded for being hammered.  The only time they are actually around I have to be completely trashed.”

“Babe,” Ashley began. “They will never know that you were drunk.  I will take care of it.  You have nothing to worry about.”
