Chapter 68: The teasing

"One more!"

"No!" Alyssa laughed out as she dragged Zoe away from the bar. She had already had a vodka cranberry and a shot of tequila.

She was trying to slow down before things got out of control, but Zoe kept pushing the line, as expected. "No more shots."

"Boo! Boring," Zoe grumbled as she let Alyssa lead her back to their table in the lounge area of the club and bar.

She sat on the high chair next to Elias, who was steadily sipping on a Jack and Coke as he watched the situation with an amused look.

"You're killing the party mood," Elias teased Alyssa once she sat back down.

Alyssa smirked as she reached out to take Elias' arm.

"I'm saving you from having to carry her back home," she pointed out. It was nice seeing everyone have a good time, though. They deserved it after a long, hard semester.
