Unspoken Pleasure (erotica)
Like A Blue Shell:>Ep60

The party was inside the hotel with far too much alcohol and not nearly enough dance floor. Tim walked over to the side of the room and found Zoe sitting down, rubbing her ankle.

"It's fine, just got a little overexcited," she said, slightly slurry.

"Yeah, the electric slide can do that to you," Tim said. Zach came over, practically carrying Courtney, and lowered her into a chair nearby.

"We've got another one down," he said. Courtney giggled and nearly rolled right out of the chair.

"Ankle?" Tim asked.

"Vodka," Zach said and smiled.

"You guys seem happy," Tim said, "Courtney just seems so... content. In a way that I don't think I've ever seen her."

"I'd like to think that's my influence, somewhat," Zach said, "It's been a tough year for her. But I've tried to help her stay loose. Maybe a bit too loose."

Courtney giggled. "I'm not as think as you drunk I am. I'm just having a good time."

"OK, honey."

"How's art school?" Tim asked.

"Tough as hell," Zach said, "And I'm loving every minute."

Sydney walked across the floor, holding a bag of ice in one hand. Colin and Paige followed.

"Is Zoe OK?" Colin asked, "Sydney told me she fell."

The whole group looked over at him dubiously.

"Well, I saw Sydney getting ice and I figured it out. Anyway..."

"I'm fine," Zoe said, holding the ice pack to her leg, "Only my pride is injured."

"There you guys are!" Taylor marched right across the room, Steve trailing. The crowd cleared for the woman in the white dress. "I can't have you sitting at my wedding. You're making me look bad."

They shared congratulations. Tim gave Taylor a kiss on the cheek. He shook Steve's hand warmly -- a surprise even to Tim, himself.

"I think the dancing is done for tonight," Colin said, "Zoe rolled her ankle."

"And Courtney is smashed," Tim said.

"Yeah, cause you all are totally sober," Courtney said. They all nodded, somewhat sheepishly. They sat around the table, squeezed against each other. Told old stories and bad jokes. Eventually the music stopped and the guests all began to drift away.

"Well now what?" Zoe asked, "I'm not ready to call it a night just yet. It's Taylor's wedding! We have to celebrate!" "There's a bar down the way," Steve said, "Pretty sure they're open late. Although, ahem, Taylor's not drinking." "Wait wh..." Zach spluttered. Courtney whispered in his ear. He looked up with large eyes and said, "Ohhhhhh." "Yeah," Colin said, "Ummmmm... Paige isn't either." The sexy little sister blushed a little and smiled.

"Well, if we can't drink, what should we do?" Paige asked.

Tim smiled and looked around the table. "Wellllll," he said, "We did pack Mario Kart..." +++++++++++++++++++

"Yeah, cause you all are totally sober," Courtney said. They all nodded, somewhat sheepishly. They sat around the table, squeezed against each other. Told old stories and bad jokes. Eventually the music stopped and the guests all began to drift away.
