A few days had passed and I had to go back to the hospital to get my cut checked out. Luckily it was fine, I had butterfly stitches put onto it and they would dissolve themselves so I wouldn’t have to come back again which I was grateful of, I hated hospitals.

I walked back into our house and out into the back garden where Evie was sunbathing.

The weather was gorgeous.

“You joining me ?” She asks without turning her head or removing her sun glasses.

“How did you know it was me” I giggle

“Just did.” she laughed

“I’ll just go get changed” I reply going up stairs and changing into my red and gold bikini with love hearts over it. I put my long blonde hair up into a scruffy up do and removed my make-up. I grabbed my holiday towel from the cupboard on the landing and went downstairs. I grabbed the other cushioned sunbathing lounger placing my towel over it and applying sun cream to myself. For July in the UK, the weather was lush and our little garden held the sun all day. I walked back inside and put my ipod into the speakers and began blasting out some tunes. I lay down on my towel allowing the sun to melt me.

“How the hospital go?”

“Good, got dissolving stitches this time”

“Ahh good”

“Where the boys?” I ask, wondered why the house was so quiet.

“Gone to get some booze, we’re having a house party later”

“Okay cool” I smile

After about half an hour I turned onto my front un-doing my bikini, I hated tan lines.

“Take aim and fire” I heard Dan shout bringing me out of my lazy sunbathing nap, my head shot up to witness him and Luke holding water guns.

I quickly did up my bikini as they squirted us with water.

“Ahhhhhh” Me and Evie screamed trying to get away from them.

“Water balloons” I grin to myself, noticing the bucket by the back door

“Dan” I shout and his head whips round just in time as I catch him.

“Oh you’re dead” he laughs but I pick up another out the bucket throwing it at him against.

“Eve’s” I shouted and she ran over grabbing the bucket off me as Dan’s arms were wrapped around my waist, not allowing me to move. She began pelting Luke with water balloons then at Dan but he kept hiding behind me.

“Eve” I giggle as she hit me again.

“Sorry ” she laughed

After a while we were all out of weapons.

“Okay, what was that for?” Evie laughs sitting down on her very wet towel.

“We saw these in Asda” Luke grinned holding up his water gun.

“And we thought they would come in handy and they did. Water fight on a day like this had to happen” Dan grinned

“Whatever” I laugh “So what time is everyone getting here later?” I ask

“Eight-ish I think” Luke replies

“Okay well it’s four now, shall we get food then get ready?” Evie says

“Yea, I’m feeling...” Dan begins

“Nandos” we all say and burst out laughing

“No actually” he smirks

“Oh my god Dan, you feeling okay” I laugh putting my hand to his forehead

“Was gona say I’m feeling fish and chips”

“Ooooo that does sound good” Luke smiles

“Okay you boys go get the munch, me and Evie will set the house up for later” I say to Luke

“Okay, we’ll go now. Come on Dan”

Dan and Luke quickly got dry and changed and went to get food as me and Evie dried ourselves, before setting the house up. We tidied up a bit inside and out in the garden as no doubt the smokers will be out here later.

***

The party was well underway now. Everyone seemed to having a great time, playing drinking games, kissing in the corner and just catching up. I was having a great time, mingling and flirting. A lot of people asked me about my stitches so I had to fill them in on Joe but other than that I was having fun.

“Anyone up for playing a bit of beer pong?” I shout into the garden to where everyone has seemed to have gathered.

“Yea” Dan grinned walking towards me “I still need that re-match from last time we played”

“You are such a bad loser ” I grin at him

I set out the cups on the kitchen table and poured out my drink in them as did Dan.

“You ready to lose”

“Never ” he winks at me as I bounce the ball across the table and it goes into his cup right away.

“Score” I grin making him down his drink

“Okay so you got one in. Let the game begin Tink”

“Wow” I giggle

“Not called you that in a while have I”

“Not in ages” I smile, “I miss it”

“Well Tink, you are going down ”

“Always do” I wink at him and he smiles

***

We down to our last cup each, I was completely hammered. This game always got me fucked.

I bounced the ball and it landed perfectly into Dan’s cup.

“Yesss” I scream

“Nooooo” Dan laughed taking out his cup and downing it

“Whoop, I’m the winner”

“Let’s see if this bad boy goes in. One shot if it goes in, it’s a draw”

“Fine” I grin as I watch him throw the ball and watch it land on the edge of my cup then fall inside.

“Yess” Dan laughed and I downed my drink

“You swine” I giggle as he comes round to my side.

“You love me really” he smirks

“Do I?” I laugh

“Oh yes” he whispers down my ear, stroking my belly.

“Dan stop it” I giggle getting out of his grip.

“Can we talk a minute” he smiles and I nod. He grabs my hand and we walk upstairs. Past a couple of people pretty much shagging on the stairs. We walked up again to the second floor where his and Luke’s rooms were. He opened his door and I went inside as he shut and locked it behind us.

I sat down on his bed watching him stood by his door. “What’s up Dan?” I grin at him

“I wanted to do something” he smirked walking over. Pushing me down onto the bed pushing his lips onto mine. I’d forgotten how soft his lips were against mine, I parted my lips allowing him to slide in his tongue, massaging it gently against mine.

“Dan what you doing?” I giggle pulling away but he continued to lie on top of me.

“I want you” he mumbled against my neck, his hand travelling up my thigh finding my knickers.

“Dan come on” I say rolling him over. I sit on his crotch as he leans against his head board.

“, I can’t help it”

“Dan we’re best friends. Last time we were drunk and horny. It was just drunken sex”

“Well we’re here again. Drunk and horny” he cheekily grinned at me, his hands sliding up my bare thighs.

“You might be” I grinned,

“You are as well”

“Dan this is gona get too complicated if we do it again. I don’t want to lose you as my best friend. I couldn’t”

“Liv you never could, you never will.” He smiled running his finger along my cheek.

“So where does this leave us?” I ask him

“I duno, but I can’t help but want to rip off your clothes right now. Last time was so good. I want...need to do it again”

“Dan” I giggle

“Liv, come on. We could do the whole friends with benefits thing.”

“That never works out. Someone always ends up getting hurt”

“Not if you set rules to begin with they don’t” he says playing with my fingers.

“Like what?”

“I duno. Like if we want sex or other…sexual favours” he grins at me, “We could help the other out. But keep it casual. Just sex, no romance, no dates, just sex”

“Are we allowed to date other people?” I ask him,

“Of course. You are single, but we just use each other when we want sex.”

“Makes me feel like a bit of a slut though Dan. What if I get a boyfriend and like sleep with him in the morning, come home and then sleep with you.”

“That means you have a high sex drive, like me.” He grins, “Baby, you could never be a slag”

“Thanks Dan” I smile

“So...are we f...w...b?”

“We can give it a go I guess, but we can’t tell anyone.”

“You’re not gona tell Evie?”

“I can’t, she’ll think bad of me, of us. Just keep it our secret Romeo.”

“Okay Tink. Now shut up and kiss me” he grinned.

I pinned his arms at the side of his head pushing my lips down onto his.
