Prologue: The Night Before
"Drink drink drink!"All the girls around me were cheering for me, as I sit at the bar.
"She'll never hit 10!"
I smirk. I'll prove them wrong. I grab the shot glass tightly in my head and bring the top to my lips, swallowing the liquid.
"10 shots. Look and weep, ladies!" I say.
"God, it's 2 in the morning already?" Swift asks. "We should be heading home."
"Food first?" Luna replies.
I'm not surprised. To be honest, we're all drunk. We've been in party mode since 9pm, and we weren't gonna stop it without some food.
"Nah, I should get going home," I reply. "He might be worried about me."
"Hey, mates before dates, Jackie," Sapphire says.
"1, he is now my husband. 2, I spent yesterday AND today, AND tonight with you guys! I need to spend some time with him. Look, I'll still come shopping with you guys tomorrow. Promise."
And at that word, I head home. I decide to take the taxi, because driving would be too dangerous.

I open the door to my front house and sneak upstairs. I still hope Sonic's either not here yet, or asleep. I'd hate for him to see me drunk.
But he's there all right. When I turn on the light in my room, I see him. And he's awake.
"You had fun?" he says.
"I think we had too much," I reply.
He obviously gets my joke, because he chuckles. But what happens next is unexplainable, yet amazing.
As we both lie in bed, he strokes my hair. I smile and embrace him into my arms.
I can tell where this will go now. Actions when drunk are so not thought over.
Which I should've done.
I feel his lips press onto mine in a deep manner, and I return it, wrapping my arms around him.

I now lie in his arms, smiling.
"Okay I admit, I was a bit drunk too," Sonic finally admits.
"A bit?" I ask.
"Okay, five shots, maybe."
I giggle, and kiss his cheek. "I love you so much."
"I love you too, Jackie."
And we both fall asleep, preparing ourselves for the massive hangover we'd get the next morning.
