Living With Boys

Chapter 4

"....what.... Happened?" I cough, finding myself on the gray couch
"Look likes Miss puke face finally has woken up" a voice I immediately recognise says
"Oh shut up." I growl.
He rolls his eyes and walks over to another couch, which has two people passed out on it
"Amanda...? Tyler....?" I squint my eyes at the couch. Yup, thats them, but why are they passed out on a couch?
I look around and realise I'm in my living room, and there's quite a few people passed out on couches
"Coby?" I rub my eyes
"Yes?" He looks back at me
"Um... What's going on?" I close my eyes, head pounding
"You all got drunk last night." Coby explains
"Wait, what?" I furrow my eyebrows, knowing I did not drink last night "I didn't drink alcohol last night!"
"It seems like you did" He raises an eyebrow at me
"I didn't" I argue
"Yeah okay" He shrugs and goes into the kitchen to clean dishes, I follow him like a puppy
"Sky, go sit down." Coby sighs
"Noooo. There are sleeping people.... THEY LOOK DEAD!" I whisper/shout but he just rolls his eyes and washes the dishes
"Well, could you go entertain yourself somewhere else?" He sighs
"Yeah I guess...." I sigh and start to run up to my room. Not a good idea. I fall to my knees on the steps and stay there for a couple minutes, feeling like living hell.
After like 30 minutes I hear some people wake up and go downstairs (slowly) so I could help out Coby
"What do you mean I got drunk?" I hear Amanda ask as I walk into the living room and sit down on the arm rest on the couch
"Yeah, I'm confused..." Jake scratches his head
"Well, I am too. All I know is that I was waiting for Joe but then Skykar saw me and came over to me, then we were gonna go get some ice cream, she went to tell Jake but he ended up being drunk and then she was drunk too, and you guys were too." Coby explains
"My moms gonna KILL me if she finds out I was 'drunk'!!!!" Natasha pouts
I rub my aching temples "This is so weird, it doesn't make since, I did not drink any alcohol last night! The only thing I drank was the punch!"
"Yeah...." Everyone agrees
"WAIT!!!" Amanda pauses everyone's thoughts
"W-what?" I asked, surprised
"You and Coby were about to go on a date!?!" She fangirls in the worst moment
".....Um...... No." I reply, heat rising into my cheeks while Coby face palms as everyone looks at us
Hazel wiggles her eyebrows
"I-ITS NOT LIKE THAT" I yell out of panic, face most likely tomato red
"Haha okay" Joe laughs
There's a total of ten of us in the room and none of us seem to know what going on
"You guys. Get back on topic." Coby sighs, the slightest bit red from the earlier comment
"Yeah..."
It seems like forever and we've come up with nothing.
"What now?" I groan
"I think everyone needs to go home. It's 11:30. And these girls have some explaining to do for their parents" Coby says
"Yeah, I think your right" Tyler nods
"Okay, Tyler take Amanda, Cameron take Shayla, Jake take Hazel and Joe take Natasha please." Coby sighs
"Got it" They all say and head out the door
"I'll go wake up Daniel and Toby" Coby says to me and head upstairs, leaving me with no one but my "hangover"

Coby POV
____________________

I jump the silver fence and slip in through a open window into a dead hallway right next to the gym
I wait for Joe and pull out my phone
I scroll through missed messages in a group chat and find the whole convo very funny, though I don't bother to laugh. I reply to the ongoing chat and almost smile to myself
"What are you doing here?" A soft voice asks. I look up from my phone and see Skylar standing in front of me. I keep my expression from changing, not wanting another girl to get the wrong idea
"I was waiting for Joe" I shrug and look top to bottom of Skylar, regretting it immediately after and looking down at my phone
"Something wrong?" she growls, putting up her wall she always holds up, just like me
"You look nice" I say, not wanting to hurt her feelings by not saying anything, though I wasn't lying
"T-thanks" She stammers probably not expecting that from me, not that it really matters if I compliment her or not. It almost seems if she's kinda scared I say that, like she doesn't want me getting to close to her, or getting any feelings for her, not like I am. 
"Why do you put your guard up so high?" I ask, still looking at my phone so I can avoid her multi colored eyes
"I have the same question for you."  She says stiffly, obviously not willing to put her guard down, which makes me wonder
"Touché" I find my self having the slightest smile on my lips
Then I fell a soft finger poke my cheek, which quite honestly catches me off guard
I lift my head from my phone and look at her, furrowing my dark eyebrows but my mouth curved into a full lip smile  "What was that for?
"I-I don't know" She stammers and I look down to my phone once again
It's quiet for a minute and I wonder if she left, so I look up from my phone and find her face literally only an inch away from mine. Is she trying to kiss me!? No- she doesn't even look like she realizes that her face is only an inch away from mine
But still. 
"Um...  Sky, that's a little weird...." I finally mange to say and it looks like she snaps out of a wave of a dream coma
"Huh?" She looks confused at first, then sees how close we are, and I swear that girl jumped higher and farther away from me than a scared kangaroo
"Oh my god! I'm sorry! I zoned out!" Her white freckled face becoming red and I can't help but to laugh.
"It's okay" I try to hold my laugh in, it doesn't seem to help her blushing though
"I-I don't think Joe will be out for a while... He's with Natasha... The dance doesn't end till 12:30, it's only 10:30.... So..." She changes the topic quickly
"Oh." I say, not really caring "wanna get some ice cream?" I add randomly, not really sure why
"Well, it's just, if I leave they won't let me back in...." She starts to explain
"I snuck in- it's really not that hard" I shrug not knowing why I want her to come have ice cream with me.
"Uh.... What about jake... I kinda came here with him" she fumbles around with her thumbs
"Well he seemed to be having fun out there, and if you want we can invite him, it's not like a date or anything" I explain, making the last part quite clear
"Yeah, I knew that. I'll go tell him" she nods, so chill it takes me aback
"Okay is all I say before she leaves to go get Jake. I stand there and watch them talking, jake full on smiling and Skylar putting up her guard as she always does. She leads him over to me and I can't help but to think great, he's coming.... All though I'm he one who came up with the idea of inviting
"Is he coming?" Is all I say though
"He's drunk Coby. Some idiot snuck alcohol into the party" she rubs her temples, not looking too well
"Okay.... Go check on everyone else then bring them back here, I'll wait while you get people" I explain
She goes to walk away but doesn't make it very far before falling.
I drop Jake, who is leaning on me and pick up Skylar. And no, it's not very graceful, it's more of one of those awkward weird hugs, except I'm trying to carry her... By the shoulders.... Somehow...
"Ugh.... What's going on?" She groans as I lean her up against a brick wall and put Jake right next to her as well
She throws up a little on Jake and I immediately Coke up with a new nickname for her, I know I'm evil.
"I don't exactly know.." I reply
Her eyes flutter shut and I go into the gym to go find the other guys and their dates. Hopefully their not drunk, but if so, at least I can help
I end up taking home eight people crashed in my shiny sports car, and I personally do not enjoy it. Luckily mom won't be home for two days and I don't know where Rick has gone, so I set them down on the living room couch, not even bothering to take the people that actually live here to their rooms.
I head up stairs, strip to my boxers, and slip in bed. I think about tonight and try to wrap my finger around what happened, but it just doesn't make since....
When I wake in the morning I don't feel as refreshed as I usually do when I wake, but I head downstairs, skipping two steps at a time.  I head into the kitchen a pour myself a big bowl of cornflakes then continue with walking into the living room, which is filled with sleeping people that I forgot were here. I yawn and rub my eyes only to see Skylar sitting cluelessly on the couch
"...what... Happened...?" She coughs
"Looks like miss puke face finally has woken up" I smirk, coaxing her
"Oh shut up" she growls at me as I smile to myself and roll my eyes
I walk over to the other couches to make sure everyone's doing alright, which everyone seems fine
"Coby?" I hear skylars soft voice ask
"Yeah?" I turn to look at her, and I can't lie, she looks like hell. Her makeup is spread everywhere, red lipstick all over her face and crazy bad raccoon eyes... It's hard not to laugh, but I manage.
"Um... What's going on?" She asks, closing her eyes
"You all got drunk last night" I explain
"Wait... What?" Her eye shoot open "I didn't drink any alcohol last night!!"
I raise an eyebrow at her "It seems you did"
"I didn't!" I argue
"Yeah okay..." I shrug and walk into the kitchen to wash some dishes, but Skylar follows me like a puppy. She's such a kid, it's like, you want them to leave you alone, but you really actually don't.
"Sky, go sit down." I say honestly not wanting her to pass out from her hangover
"Nooooooo, there are sleeping people! THEY LOOK DEAD!!!!" She whisper shouts. I just roll my eyes and go back to washing the dishes, such a kid.
"Well, could you go entertain yourself somewhere else?" I sigh, half of me hoping she would say no...
"Yeah.... I guess...." She shrugs and rushes upstairs, probably not the best idea on her part
I finish washing the dishes and hear a couple more people wake, I sigh and walk into the colorful room
"Morning" I say to Amanda, Tyler, Jake, and Joe, the rest still fast alseep
"What's going on?" Amanda yawns
"Well you all got drunk last night"
"What do you mean I got drunk!?" Amanda furrows her eyebrows as Skylar walks back into the room slowly and sits on the arm rest of the couch
"Yeah, I'm confused..." Jake scratches his head
"Well, I am too. All I know is that I was waiting for Joe but then Skykar saw me and came over to me, then we were gonna go get some ice cream, she went to tell Jake but he ended up being drunk and then she was drunk too, and you guys were too." I explain
"My moms gonna KILL me if she finds out I was 'drunk'!!!!" Natasha pouts, I didn't even realize she was awake, but then I realize everyone's awake
Skylar rubs her temples "This is so weird, it doesn't make since, I did not drink any alcohol last night! The only thing I drank was the punch!"
"Yeah...." Everyone agrees
"WAIT!!!" Amanda pauses everyone's thoughts
"W-what?"Skylar asks, obviously surprised
"You and Coby were about to go on a date!?!" She fangirls in the worst moment
".....Um...... No." She replies, her cheeks starting to redden, and I just face palms as everyone looks at us
Hazel wiggles her eyebrows at us but I just ignore it all, even though I can feel some heat in my cheeks
"I-ITS NOT LIKE THAT" Skylar yells out of panic, her face now tomato red
"Haha okay" Joe laughs and winks at me, which makes me feel quite awkward
There's a total of ten of us in the room and none of us seem to know what going on
"You guys. Get back on topic." I sigh, probably the slightest bit red from the earlier event
"Yeah..." Skylar looks down
It seems like forever and we've come up with nothing. Nothing
"What now?" Skylar groans
"I think everyone needs to go home. It's 11:30. And these girls have some explaining to do for their parents" I say 
"Yeah, I think your right" Tyler nods
"Okay, Tyler take Amanda, Cameron take Shayla, Jake take Hazel and Joe take Natasha please." I sigh trying to get everything back in order
"Got it" They all say and head out the door
"I'll go wake up Daniel and Toby" I say to Skylar and head upstairs, leaving her all alone.
"Wake up loser!" I barge into Daniel's room and throw his pillow at him
"H-Huh!?!?" His slobber hangs off the side of his cheek as he lifts his head, and I grimace
"You're disgusting bro." I crinkle my nose. "Anyways, it's time to wake up, we have plans today"
"We do?" He groans obliviously annoyed
"Yeah" I say halfway out the door. I head to Toby's room to wake him even though I personally just rather have him sleep for forever...
When I walk into his light brown room I see he's not sleeping but.... Playing guitar?
"You can play guitar?" I furrow my eyebrows as he jumps five feet from his chair
"Uh......."
"Why are you embarrassed about that?" I ask as he looks at me like he was caught by the police
"Um...... No reason" He shrugs it off but doesn't sound very convinced
"anyways we have to help out with the big football game, so get ready" I explain and run down stairs to see Skylar passed out on the floor.... I just stare at her for a minute thinking a million different thoughts. Why she came into my life, I don't know, but I'm willing to find out.
