Saving the Party

"Shit are you fucking kidding me. TAMMY!" Sarah was looking in the fridge and I walked up behind her.

"Problem?"

"Oh hey. No... well... it's just..." She sighed. "Every couple of weeks these stupid sorority whores on campus throw a fucking raging party. Everyone talks about it and we never get invited. How hard is it to throw a party with some friends? I thought, foolishly to myself. Except my WORTHLESS ROOMMATE didn't get any alcohol, no drugs, no fucking food! I mean shit, what kind of party is this going to be anyways." I put my hands on her shoulders. This was the time to test my theory about my powers.

"Sarah, Sarah... look at me and breath. When is the party actually starting?" She took a breath and her breasts swelled in my face.

"At 7." I looked behind her at the clock on the stove.

"Four hours. That's an eternity! Tell you what, let's go to the grocery store and sort out the food. Not everyone drinks or does drugs, but everyone eats. Solve food and the other things will fall into place, I can feel it." I said to her. She sighed.

"I don't have any money! Tammy was supposed to do it because she got her paycheck." I smiled.

"Well get what you can... I have..." I checked my wallet to find $200 in there in twenties. "I have money. We can work together on this." She looked suspiciously at me.

"You're gonna help me out?"

I shrugged. "Aren't we friends? Your friend rescued me probably." I said with a joking grin. She smiled.

"Yeah, I guess we're friends."

"Then friends don't let friends throw lame parties. Come on!" I took her hand and lead her out of the apartment.

"Where you going?" Chloe asked after us.

"To get this party going." I yelled. We got out onto the street and looked around.

"Where can we get food nearby?" I asked.

"There's a trattoria right there. Pizza's alright there." Sarah pointed to the place across the street. We walked across the street and walked in on an argument happening in the kitchen.

"WHY THE FUCK WOULD I ORDER 17? HAS OUR COOLER EVER BEEN ABLE TO HOLD 17 CASES? DID YOU THINK WE GOT A NEW COOLER?"

"I'M SORRY ALRIGHT, I CAN'T READ YOUR FUCKING HANDWRITING AND IT LOOKED LIKE 17. Fuckin hell. Hello, what can I do for you?" The young man smiled at us from behind the counter.

"Yeah we would like..." Sarah started but I looked to the back.

"What was that about?"

"Oh god, just... I fucked up I guess, I ALWAYS fuck up. I thought my dad wrote 17 cases of wine bottles so that's what I ordered. Our cooler can only fit 12 max and we have one so that's 6 cases extra that we're gonna have to dump.

"You don't... HAVE to dump it right? I mean you could give it to us." I said smiling. He looked between me and Sarah.

"And what, lose my liquor license?"

"And help save a fuckin dying party man. It's right across the street and you're invited if you hook us up." I said to him quietly. Sarah was just watching us talk and the guy smiled.

"She gonna be there?" He asked, winking at Sarah. I nodded.

"Her and these blonde twins with tits....you wouldn't believe."

"Well unless you got a cooler that shit is going bad."

"Nah we can give out bottles as prizes for games or something, it's a party." The guy sighed and looked to the back.

"Give me like...$20 so I can live with myself at least... letting this wine go." I handed him $20 and he came back with 5 crates and a hand cart.

"There, Papa already drained one. Where's this party at?" I looked at Sarah and she wrote down the address and pointed across the street. He pocketed it and winked at her. "You still wanted food right?"

We ordered food and then headed back with the cases of wine. "I can't fucking believe that happened. Ha! You're like a lucky charm!" Sarah held my arm as we walked. We returned to her apartment with the cases of wine and the pizzas. "Party is saved." She announced. Chloe and Zoey rushed up to grab a bottle of wine each and they started calling their friends excitedly. Henry smiled and poured himself a glass and grabbed a slice.

"Damn how much did you spend on all this?"

"$20, they over ordered 5 cases so the guy gave em to us. He's coming to the party later too." Henry grinned.

"This party is going to be great!"
