Life in Technicolour.
Nine: I used to be love drunk, but now I'm hungover.
I didnt hear Riley come home, I only realised that she was until I was woken up by the sound of the shower, I was walking past her bathroom when she came out and she walked straight into me. She was only wrapped in a towel, and her wet hair was brushed back off her face so that I could see her eyes, I chewed on my snake bite, it was taking a lot not to rip the towel off of her and fuck her on the bathroom floor.
I called out when I came in She said going into her room.
I was half asleep, sorry
Its okay And then she shut the door in my face, I sighed and went into the kitchen, deciding on making myself something to eat, there was food but I wasnt in the mood to cook anything so I just settled on a trix yogurt, I like them way too much for my own good.
When I was done I went and flopped down on the couch, and started flipping through the channels, I couldnt find anything that held my attention for more than thirty seconds, at least until Riley walked in. I swallowed and looked her up and down, taking a second before I could actually find the words to speak.
You look nice I said. Smooth.
I have a date Yeah shes pissed at me.
With?
Moms friends kid
Are you being vague on purpose
Yes
Why?
Because it doesnt concern you I winced at how cold her voice was.
Do you have pepper spray? I looked her in the eye; if she was going on a date with someone shed only met today I wanted to make sure she at least had that on her.
No
Wait here I got up off the couch and went into my room, digging through the box of stuff under my bed, to be honest I dont know why I had this stuff, I think Gena must have left it here, but now it was going to some use and I was glad. I went back into the living room and handed it over to Riley.
I think youre being a little paranoid She said glaring up at me.
Just want you to be safe, I dont know what Id do if I lost you
Yeah well Im fine She said haughtily.
There was a buzz from the front door
Masons here She said
Ready to go? He asked her when she opened the door.
Yeah She grinned, she left the apartment throwing a Bye Zack Over her shoulder, I fucking hated that, shed called me Zack she only ever called me that when she was angry with me. I sighed.
I tidied up the living room and threw all the crap from last nights take out in the trash, when I wasnt on tour I was oddly domestic, as in I wasnt out every single night of the week partying and getting drunk off my ass, usually Riley and I just stayed in and watched crap on TV or played on the Xbox.
Which was what I was doing now, although I wasnt sure the Call of duty Modern Warfare 3 was the way that most of my band mates were spending their Saturday nights, but I guess Id always been the nerdier one of the group?
X-X-X
I was half asleep on the couch when I heard them, Riley giggling and the laughter of this Mason guy that she was with, and then silence, I was pretty sure I knew what they were doing and upon opening the door I found Id guessed right. He had her pressed up against the door frame with his tongue rammed down her throat and it made me insanely jealous.
They jumped apart pretty quick, I knew that I was pissed off and I knew Riley could tell through the way I spoke to her.
I didnt think you were coming home I said
Well its not up to you She giggled.
Youre drunk I said flatly, I fucking hated seeing her drunk, it made me think about when she almost drank herself to death.
Well done Einstein
Come on Riley dont be rude, he might murder you in your sleep He snickered. She giggled and slapped his chest,
Go on, Ill see you soon He kissed her again after that, before walking off. She walked into the flat and I slammed the door.
What was that? I demanded.
I have a boyfriend She said sitting down on the couch and trying to take her heels off.
When she couldnt do it she huffed and held it out to me, I took her feet in my lap and pulled her shoes off then she stood up, wobbled a little bit, before walking off to her bedroom.
Youve known him a day I said
Whatever, dont be such a wet blanket
Im not talking to you when youre drunk I snapped.
Oh fuck you She said, but Id left the room and shut the door. Zacky? She called out. Zacky Im sorry
I called out when I came in She said going into her room.
