"No, Sunshine you need to slow down." She frowned and shook her head.
"I don't wanna." I raised my eyebrows but was pulled back by a group of my friends.
"No guys-" I tried to protest but they pulled me into the living room away from Devina.
"Dude. You found a mate?" One of my friends, Haden asked.
"Yeah man and you just took me away from her." He chuckled and patted my back.
"I'm glad you finally moved on from-" I cut him off with a death glare. "I surrender man!" He put his hands up and I laughed.
~Devina's POV~
The liquid burned as it made its way down my throat. Zane was dragged away by a group of really hot guys so I was stuck here by myself.
"I still have you right?" I asked the cup in my hand.
"Woah, Dev. You're drunk?" I shrugged, not really sure who was asking. "Hey hey hey." The voice caught me as I tripped on my shoes and almost fell. I looked up and saw Everett. I squinted my eyes and picked his nose.
"Boop." I giggled and he took a step back.
"I'm gonna go find Za-"
"Don't touch her again." Zane intercepted. Everett rolled his eyes and walked back into the crowd. "Baby, seriously you need to slow down. You're going to get sick." I flung my arms around him and inhaled his delicious scent.
"I missed you so much." He laughed and snaked his arms around my waist. "You smell really good. Like all the time. You never-not smell like this. How is that possible?" I smelled his shirt again and moaned.
"Are you smelling me Sunshine?" I looked up and nodded.
"Well yeah. I can't help it." I shrugged causing Zane to grin.
"Well thanks, you smell really good too." I leaned closer and inspected his eyes.
"There's a little pond over here with a dock." I nodded and followed him through the green trees. It's so nice out tonight. The moon was high in the sky while a light breeze cooled us down. "Here it is." We walked onto the dock and I sat down.
"Drink up!" I pointed to the bottles and his nose scrunched up in disgust. "Zane. Just let loose. Have some fun. For me?" He rolled his eyes and tilted his head back, chugging the vodka. Plain. Once he was done he set it down and moved on to the next.
"I'm over two hundred. I have a high tolerance." I giggled and watched as he finished the second and third bottle. "That'll do it." He slurred after a few minutes.
"Yay! Now let's play a game." He nodded and crossed his legs, probably afraid that he might fall off the side. "Never have I ever!" We both held up our hands. "You first." He nodded and smirked.
"Never have I ever not had my drivers license!" I thought about this one.
"You didn't have your drivers license when you were three!" I pointed out. He frowned and laughed. We both put a finger down.
"Never have I ever... had sex." He rolled his eyes and put down a finger.
"I'm just glad you didn't put a finger down. Never have I ever kissed a boy." I put my finger down and he growled. "You kissed a boy?" I nodded.
