Kenny Does Nicole Proud

Nicole and Kenny both entered the liquor store and began to wander around, Kenny, not being much of a drinker, merely looked at some options in confusion while Nicole quickly went around, picking up particular bottles and putting them in a basket. "What's your poison, Clark?" Nicole finally asked as she entered the aisle Kenny stood in, "Rum? Huh, didn't take you for the type,"

"I...didn't even know this was rum," Kenny sheepishly replied as he looked over the tall bottle in his hand, "I haven't actually gone to a party that was set up like this,"

"Really," Nicole said with a sly smile, "Guess I'll have to show you the ropes, show you how they run...and how they end." Nicole leaned closer to Kenny's ear, "Well, how they end for me at least," She hinted causing Kenny to shudder, the vivid images of Nicole riding him resurfacing in his mind,

"Thank god we're sharing a room," Kenny sighed,

"Aw, look at you," Nicole playfully teased while reaching up and pinching Kenny's cheek, "You're all ready to make our bed rock all week, huh?"

Kenny smirked and pulled his head away from Nicole's pinching fingers, "Can you blame me? This has to be, hands down, the best day of my life,"

"Yeah?" Nicole giggled, "What's been your favorite part? Oh wait, wait, nevermind, I think I figured that one out myself. Considering my pussy still full of your...ahem, happiness," Nicole quietly joked,

"I still want to make you finish, Nikki, today hasn't exactly been fair for you," Kenny added on causing another broad smile to grow on Nicole's face,

"Ooooh, you want to make me cum, Ken?" She repeated causing Kenny to merely look back at her with a suggestive look of his own, "Lucky for you, drinking always puts me in a mood, and I'm so easy to please once I'm drunk...you'll get your chance." Nicole informed the teen while taking the bottle of rum from his hand and walking towards the counter.

Kenny blinked a few times and finally felt a bit of worry return to his chest as Nicole began to check out. He almost forgot what they were doing was against the law, though Nicole seemed to have this whole thing down to a science. Kenny continued to wander around the store, just waiting to hear the store clerk yell out and call the cops. He tried to think of what he could say if things went to that point, maybe they would be able to pay them off, or run away...hell maybe Nicole could 'do something' to get the guy to let them go.

Kenny smirked at the thought of Nicole having to blow the store clerk because she just had to buy booze, but at the same time, he felt a little weird knowing that Nicole might be willing to do that if the situation called for it. As Kenny continued to wonder if he was actually okay with that, Nicole's voice shook him out of his trance, "Let's go, Ken,"

Kenny looked up at her in surprise, "We're good?"

"Uh, yeah, not that hard." Nicole replied with a little shake of her head, leading Kenny back out of the store, "Told you I knew how to handle this."

"You seem to know how to handle a lot of things, Nikki," Kenny mumbled back,

Nicole only let out a smug smile, taking his words as a complete compliment, "I know, I'm a woman of many talents. Just you wait Clark, you'll be seeing a lot more of them tonight and later this week." Kenny couldn't help but let out a pleased grin, regardless of his thoughts on Nicole being loose, he liked what they were doing, "Oh Kenny, once you find out my plans for you, you'll-Eric?" Nicole interrupted herself as she noticed Anna, Eric, and Zoey standing at Kenny's car,

"Eric? Oh shit, it is Eric!" Kenny said with a surprised smile,

"Hey, guys!" Eric called out to the pair as they picked up the pace, getting to the car within seconds, "Kenny, good to see you again. Nicole, always a pleasure," Eric nodded to them both,

"Eric! Oh wow, it's been forever!" Nicole almost squealed as she threw her arms around his neck, giving him a full friendly hug,

"I know, it's been too long. I've missed you guys, psyched to see Brian, JJ, and Mindy too," Eric replied as he patted Nicole's back a few times,

Kenny stood just a few feet behind Nicole, his eyes wide as he looked Zoey over, tongue-tied at her mere sight. Zoey noticed this pretty quickly and flicked her eyes around with a smirk, trying to make sure that Kenny was indeed staring at her, "Um, hello..." She finally said with a little wave to the teen,

Kenny blinked rapidly and shook his head, "Sorry, you just...reminded me of someone," He quietly lied, "Who are you?" He finally asked, now curious who and why the girl was even here,

Zoey let out a small giggle, tickled by Kenny's reaction to her, "Zoey Irons, I'm Eric's girlfriend," She replied as Eric broke his hug with Nicole, "Who do I remind you of by the way?"

"My...uh...aunt?" Kenny mumbled back causing Eric to let out a small snicker while Anna and Nicole both shook their heads ever so slightly,

"So, you're Eric's new main squeeze, huh?" Nicole interjected, saving Kenny from embarrassing himself anymore,

"Yeah, we just started dating a few weeks ago," Zoey explained as Anna turned her head away, taking in a short but sharp breath,

"Zoey's my only friend in my new school, and well...things just kinda happened, you know?" Eric added on with a little smirk as he reached over and took her hand in his,

"That's cute," Nicole smirked as she gave her best friend a quick glance, noticing her sullen expression, "So what's going on? You just notice Anna and pop over to say hi?"

"No, like I said, I'm psyched to go and see Bry, JJ, and Mindy," Eric replied with a quick head shake while looking over to Anna,

"Oh, right," Anna replied while lightly hitting her head, "Idiot," She muttered to herself, "I invited Zoey and Eric to our little party, not like Brian would care."

"Fair point, more people. better party." Nicole agreed, "And it'll be just like the first time you two met," Nicole grinned, teasing the pair,

Anna frowned, and Eric awkwardly shifted while squeezing Zoey's hand tighter. Zoey ended up being the one to laugh and break the growing awkward silence, "I didn't think of that, that is pretty funny." The redhead giggled, "Eric and I don't have a story for our first time meeting,"

"Y-Yeah we do," Eric replied, diverting his eyes away from Anna, "We met in science class, lab partners, remember?"

"Yep, and on day one, you barely said two words to me. You were so quiet and upset, it took me a few days to break through to this one," Zoey smirked,

"But then you couldn't get me to shut up," Eric reminded her,

"Never wanted you to shut up," Zoey softly corrected him as the two held a long, deep gaze,

"How about we get moving, hmm?" Anna immediately said walking over and getting into Kenny's back seat,

"Sounds good to me," Nicole shrugged as Zoey and Eric looked away from one another,

"Right, so what do we...where are we going?" Eric asked with a little cough,

"Just follow me, we're heading to a little tram station, it'll take us up to the lodge," Kenny explained, Eric let out a nod and walked over to his car with Zoey while Kenny get into the driver seat. "Huh, small world," Kenny said as he started up the car and put his seatbelt on,

"Not small enough, huh Anna?" Nicole asked while looking into the back seat, "You okay sweetie?"

"I'm fine, why?" Anna gruffly asked back,

"Anna...you do realize Eric doesn't have to come, right?" Nicole reminded the obviously irritated girl,

"Oh I want Eric to come...just not Zoey," She muttered back before going wide-eyed, "Shit, I didn't mean that. She seems like an incredibly sweet girl..."

"But you don't want her with Eric, right?" Kenny replied causing Anna to sigh,

"No, but that doesn't matter, we broke up. I can't expect him just to stay alone, just like I can't hang onto the past." Anna lowly replied while shaking her head, "C'mon, let's just get back to the lodge...I think I may actually want a drink for once."

Nicole turned back and hung her head for a moment, feeling for her friend as she knew what Eric meant to Anna. Not only was he her first boyfriend and first time, but neither one of them wanted to end their relationship, they were **** to. She didn't fully understand why she invited them both to the lodge, but she figured it was more of an impulse move on her end. The next thirty minutes to the tram station were made in silence; the silence was broken by Kenny as he and Eric both parked their cars. He eyed a new car sitting with the others, "Who's is that?"

"Don't know...maybe is some maintenance worker or something?" Anna guessed while Nicole grabbed the bags of ****,

"Who cares, let's get back to the lodge, this tram ride is gonna be awkward, and I already want it over with." The punk styled girl muttered out to them both while abruptly getting out of the car.
