Tenacious Sky novel Chapter 20

Back at the hotel, we agreed to hang out in Easton's room since it was the biggest. He had a full-on suite with a living room and everything. I grabbed the games out of the room before bringing it to where we were meeting. Leo sat off by himself as I set the games on the coffee table. It was a few minutes before the girls arrived.

"I hit the jackpot," Freya said as she held up a few heavy-looking bags. After she set them down, she pulled out a few bottles of alcohol. She had wine coolers, beer, and straight liquor. I briefly wondered how she got them. We were all underaged. She cracked open a beer and handed it to me before everyone else helped themselves.

"Thanks for inviting us," she said to me.

"No problem," I smiled back at her. Leo immediately reached for the bottle as I sat on the floor near him but I pulled it away.

"It's fine," I told him. He sighed but sat back and left it alone. 

"I worry you'll do something stupid," he muttered. I chose to ignore him. I took a sip of the bitter liquid before cringing. The taste would definitely take some getting used to but it wasn't bad. Everyone decided on Cards Against Humanity first. Leo opted out of playing. By the time I finished downing the beer, I was laughing along with everyone else at the ridiculous answers. Freya handed me another beer and we moved on to truth or dare Jenga. The prompts were stupid but funny. Halfway into my second beer, the alcohol hit me all at once. I guess I was a lightweight. I chugged the rest of the beer before setting it off to the side. I felt like dancing, the mood was good. I didn't even realize I was swaying until Leo steadied my shoulders.

"I'm taking my kid back to our room. He's drunk," Leo said.
