hungover you

Luca laughed at Jonathan's reply, grinning at his sister as she nodded in agreement with Jonathan's earlier statement. "The appropriate amount of fun. Drinking water, and avoiding creepy guys." She informed him, smiling when Bex came back and sat down, although the slur in her voice worried her.

Luca turned to Bex, eyes scanning her over to make sure she was alright when he heard the slur. "You have too much? You feeling alright?" He asked.

Bexley looked at Luca and nodded, "I'm great." She said, smiling. "What are you guys doing?" She asked. She looked at Florence, "Are you having fun yet?" She asked her.

--

Jonathan noticed how drunk Bexley was, glancing over at Luca. "So how are we getting her into your house?" He asked looking st Florence and Luca.

Florence smiled at her friend, nodding a little. "Yeah, I'm having fun." She looked nervously at Luca and Jonathan as they spoke about sneaking Bexley into their house, not liking the idea of it.

"We can bring her in through my bedroom window, and she can sleep there for the night. My parents have to leave for a business trip early tomorrow morning, so they won't notice her. Plus, we can always sneak her into Florence's room once she's inside." He explained with a simple shrug.

Bexley looked at them, "You don't have to sneak me in. I am fine." She said, giggling. She looked at them, seeing how blurry they looked.

--

Jonathan chuckled when he heard Bexley, "Oh this is going to be fun." He said. He finished his drink, "I take it we should get going." He said.

Florence frowned as she looked at her friend, shaking her head a little as she said she was fine. "You don't look well, Bex.. Let's go home." She murmured, standing as her brother did. She stuck close to Jonathan as Luca helped Bexley up, leading her out of the party house. Florence's face heated up brightly when someone smacked her ass as she walked by, lowering her head and gripping Jonathan's arm a bit tighter, glad that her brother hadn't noticed.

---

Luca kept his arm around Bexley, supporting her at he led her out of the house, pausing on the lawn to let her breathe in some fresh air. "You had too much to drink, Bex. You gotta be more careful." He murmured, glancing back to see that Jonathan and Florence were behind them still.

Bexley walked with Luca, "You should be more careful." She teased him, giggling as they walked. She staggered into him. "I had so much fun. Did you have fun?" She asked, looking up at him.

---

Jonathan felt her grip his arm as they walked outside. "What's wrong?" He asked as they walked after Luca and Bexley. "Did you at least have some fun?" He asked, looking over at her.

Luca chuckled a little as he shook his head, arm tightening around her as she stumbled. "Yes, I had fun. But, I think you had too much fun." He reminded her, keep her close as they walked home.

---

Florence shook her head a little as he asked what was wrong, her arms tightening around his. "Nothing.. They... nothing." She decided it wasn't worth telling him and upsetting Luca. She nodded a little when he asked if she'd had fun, looking up at him. "Yeah, I did.. Thank you for keeping me company."

Bexley smiled, "I did not. I could have had more fun." She said as she staggered a little. She slipped her hand under his shirt some as they walked. As they got to Luca and Florence's house she stopped, staggering into Luca again. She laughed as she almost fell over.

---

Jonthan smiled, "Well, you kept me company too." He said. He stopped with Luca and watched as Bexley staggered. "Well this is going to be fun." He said, chuckling.

Luca supressed a groan as she slipped a hand under his shirt, his free hand capturing hers to keep it from going anywhere else. "Maybe another time, Bex, when you're not wasted." He promised, pressing the briefest of kisses to her ear before she stumbled and fell, hushing her as he knelt to make sure she was alright. "Look, you gotta be quiet so my parents don't hear, ok?" He turned to Jonathan and Florence. "If you two go through the front and head upstairs, that way if we make any noise when we come in through the window you can say it was you. I'll get Bex upstairs into my room, and then come down again to come in through the front door."

Florence shrugged. "I'm sure you would have rather had someone else keep you company." She explained, stopping when Luca began to explain his plan. She released Jonathan's arm before gesturing him to follow her to the front door while Luca lifter Bexley into his arms to carry her to the back of the house.

Bexley sat on the ground, smiling as he told her to keep quit. "Okay." She whispered. She smiled as he picked her up. She bit her bottom lip lightly, trying not to giggle. When they got to the back of the house she looked at him. "This was fun." She whispered as she kept her arms around his neck loosely.

---

Jonathan walked into the house with her, glancing around. "I think your parents might be asleep." He whispered as they walked upstairs.

Luca smiled as he carried her, nodding a little as he looked at her. "It was fun. Now, I'm going to need you to get on my back so I can climb up the tree and get through the window. Which means you're going to have to hold on real tight, alright?" He said, carefully setting her down, his hands resting on her hips to keep her steady.

---

Florence nodded a little in agreement when he said that her parents were asleep, glancing around before leading him upstairs. "This one is my room, and then that one is my brother's room. I don't really know where you'll be sleeping.. I can always sleep on the couch, lord knows I did that enough in foster care." She sighed, shuddering a little at the memory. "I.. One of those guys at the party grabbed me on the way out when we were leaving, but I didn't want Luca to know... I know I should have said something sooner, but I didn't want him to know, or you to freak out.." her voice was quiet, nervous, as if she'd done something wrong at all by getting groped.

Bexley looked up at him as he set her down. She smiled up at him, "Okay." She said. She looked up at the window, then looked at him again. She waited for him before she held onto him as he climbed up the tree. Once they were in his room she smiled as she let go, falling back on his floor. She covered her mouth as she giggled to hide the sound. She had never been in his room before.

---

Jonathan frowned at her words, "What? You should have said something. I would have kicked his ass." He said. He looked over at Luca's door. "I think I am going to take the couch." He said. He got some blankets before looking at her. "Goodnight Florence." He said before he walked downstairs.

Luca helped her onto his back, making sure that she was holding on tightly before climbing up the tree and through his window, groaning slightly at the effort. He chuckled a little as she fell, holding a finger to his lips as he hushed her, helping her up and setting her down on his bed. "There. I'll get you some water and asprin, and you can sleep here tonight. I'll crash on the floor, or in Florence's room."

---

"I didn't.. I didn't want to make trouble." She frowned as he scolded her for not saying anything, not meeting his eyes as she nodded when he said he'd take the couch, heading into her room. "Good night, Jonathan.. I'm sorry.." she murmured as she shut the door. Once she was in her pajamas she climbed into bed with a little sigh, burying her face in her pillow to try to hide her weeping.

Bexley laid on his bed, looking at him. "Why would you do that?" She asked as she kicked her shoes off. She reached her hand out and took his. "Sit down." She slurred.

--

Jonathan laid on the couch, putting his arms behind his head as he stared up at the ceiling. He really wanted to beat that guy that touched Florence like that.

"No Bex." He said gently but firmly. "You're drunk, you don't know what you're doing. I'll be back in a minute. You can use one of my shirts for pajamas if you want." He offered, gently pulling his hand from hers to go downstairs and grab her the asprin and water before heading back upstairs to deliver it.

---

Florence sniffled, heading downstairs for a glass of water after twenty or so minutes, rubbing at her eyes sleepily as she tiptoed past the couch where Jonathan was, assuming he was still sleeping. She jumped a little in surprise when she turned and saw he was awake, blushing as she looked away. "Sorry for waking you.."

Bexley pouted as he left her, before she got up and found one of his shirts to sleep in. She got changed, climbing into the bed. Bexley looked over as he came back in.

--

Jonathan shook his head, "You didn't wake me." He said. He looked at her, "It takes me a little to actually fall asleep.

@ katahdin

@ XXGhostyXX

He offered her a smile as he returned, handing the water to her before setting the asprin down on the bedside table. "Drink a little before you go to sleep, it'll help with the hangover in the morning." He told her, leaning over to tuck her into bed further, making sure that she was comfortable.

---

Florence frowned a little as he said it took him a while to fall asleep, nodding in understanding. "I understand.. I get too worried about the door being locked, or whenever I hear people outside my room..." She gave a little shudder at some memory before shaking her head. "I'll let you try to sleep, though. Goodnight."

Bexley looked at him, "You know you can lay next to me and sleep. I won't do anything." She whispered to him as he leaned over her. She let her eyes move to his. "I promise." She said.

--

Jonathan noticed how she shuddered. "Are you okay?" He asked her. He really didn't know much about her besides her being Luca's sister. He knew plenty about his past though.

Axel watched her for a long moment before agreeing, shedding out of his dirty shirt and jeans to pull on a pair of basketball shorts to sleep in, sliding into bed next to her. "Go to sleep, Bex." He murmured tiredly into his pillow as he got comfortable, his eyes soon closing.

---

Florence bit her lip as he asked if she was alright, giving a little shake of her head. "..No. Can, can you come sit with me upstairs? Just for a little while? I normally ask Luca, but I think he's already fallen asleep, and I don't want to wake him..." She frowned as she looked at him, gripping her glass of water tightly.

Bexley smiled as he climbed into the bed with her before she closed her eyes and fell asleep. She held his blankets close as she slept quietly beside of him.

---

Jonathan watched her for a moment as he thought about it. "Okay I will sit up there with you." He said. "Only for a little." He said as he got up and walked upstairs with her.
