The Beginning Of Something Green, chapter 4
*Niamh's P.O.V.*
The two girls dragged me back to Ashley's place where I feel asleep instantly... Alcohol really took it out of me. I woke up the next day and the two girls were laughing their ass off.
"What?" I mumbled, flattening down my hair.
"You were talking in your sleep again!" Ashley laughed.
"About...Mike!!!" Aisling spluttered.
I shot a look at the two and went to the bathroom and cleaned myself up. I wasn't what you'd call a morning person. I still felt kind of sick, but I didn't bother mentioning it. I never saw Tré laugh so much or Mike look so confused...
I went back in and sat on the sofa and Aisling passed me a joint, which I didn't hesitate in taking. We weren't what you'd call addicts but we needed to clear our heads now and again.
"Want some?" Aisling said to Ashley. She looked at it cautiously but then took it.
"What the hell?" she laughed. After a few puffs she began to laugh.
"Did you see Amanda when we were coming out of The Gilman?" Aisling said excitedly.
"No I was too busy throwing up!"
"Well she was sucking the face off Al!" She raised her eyebrows.
I rolled my eyes. "He'd suck the face off a dog." Ashley erupted into giggles on the other chair.
"So!" I said wasting no time. "You and Tré!"
She smiled an evil, horny smile.
"Ya...it's going well..."
I smiled a knowing smile at her. I could tell she really liked him... She had never gotten this fussed over a guy before...it was usually just bonk him and leave him...
Then we started talking about Billie and Ashley's possibilities. "So what do ya know about him?" Ashley enquired, trying to sound casual but sounding totally interested.
"Where do you start? Well I've known him ever since he moved here...he's a shit hot guitarist and vocalist. He's sweet, funny, horny...oh and he's the local joint dealer...people refer to him as $2 Bill..." Aisling was interrupted by the guys arriving.
They came into the den.
"I brought beer!" Billie laughed. It was like 12 in the morning...oh well I was wasted; I might as well get drunk. Tré looked at me.
"Hey pukey girl!"
"Stop! I'm stressed, traumatized, shocked, emotionally scarred!" I laughed.
"Ok...didn't want to hear your life story." He winked at Aisling. Mike sat down next to me.
"Dude, do you have to do that in front of me?" But they just ignored him. Tré was whispering stuff in Aisling's ear, she smiled a little hornified smile...I envied her that way. She was at ease with boys like that, I would embarrass myself by blushing or falling over or something. The two got up with Tré leading Aisling by the hand.
"Errrr...eummm we're...wait! You're not my fucking mother...we don't have to explain!" he dragged Aisling out the door and up the stairs.
"Oh fuck! I forgot to ring my Mom!" I said dialling the number.
"Hi mom...I stayed over at Ashley's... .. ya it's grand! Mike's here too...what? Who's Mike? Yes, yes Michael...all right bye!" I rolled my eyes to heaven and mimicked
"Who's Mike?...Is she that slow?" Me and my Mom didn't ever have the perfect Mother/Daughter thing happening, she didn't trust me one bit and it was even harder now, since my Dad died last year. Ashley yawned.
"I'm going to bed...good night." Above us I could hear Aisling laugh. I rested my head on Mike's shoulder. Billie gave Mike an 'I told you so look'. "I can't believe you kissed the freak!" he shrieked.
"I know... don't remind me! I went absolutely insane for a minute I think..." I tried to laugh it off. I looked over to see Billie fast asleep. The partying all night had obviously got to him. Mike sighed.
"We haven't talked in ages!"
"I know, there's a lot of shit going on in my head right now... "
He looked at me understandingly. We sat in silence, some awkwardness was brewing but when it's with Mike he takes away the awkward...
"You know I was kind of jealous when you were with that dork... " I raised my eyebrows at him.
I was about to ask him what he meant but I closed my eyes slowly and fell into a deep sleep with Mike's warm arms around me.
