Drunken Denny

Riley’s P.OV

It was now after 11pm and I have not heard a word from Denny since I ran into him in this morning even though he said he would talk to me later. I am guessing he got a better offer. Chloe was also away home which sucks but I would see her in a couple of weeks when I got home for the weekend that is something for me to look forward to. As for right now I was being a loner, lying in bed binge watching NCIS and eating a tub of mint chocolate ice cream, trying not to let the full Denny thing get to me and it was kind of working for me. I decided the best thing for me to do was have an early night because I was knackered due to not getting much sleep last night. I switched everything off, getting comfortable for the night, sighing before snuggling under my covers. I tossed and turned for a little while, eventually I felt my eyes beginning to close over. Ah! Sleep! One of my favorite things.

Though I got woken up as quickly as I fell asleep as someone started knocking on my door, a little too loudly for my liking. Who the heck was that? I decided I would be safer not answering it you know in case it’s aliens coming to abduct me or some crazy person. I really need to stop letting my imagination taking over or I am gonna end up making myself insane. I buried myself under the covers, hiding. Like that would help if someone came in to get me.

“Riley!” I heard all of a sudden, another knock at the door

Denny! I should have known, he is the only person that would show up at my door at this time of night. I groaned, annoyed before climbing out of bed, struggling my way towards the door in the dark, trying not to fall flat on my face or my ass. Luckily I managed to get there in one piece without hurting myself. YEAH! GO ME! I said to myself doing a little victory dance before opening my door, rolling my eyes.

“Can I help you?” I groaned, raising my brow at him

“Hey sweet cheeks did you miss me?” he slurred, barley able to stand still on his feet, still that stupid same smug look on his face like always.

I think someone has had too much to drink tonight.

“No I never. Again what do you want?” I repeated

“I needed to talk to you about something.” He said staggering into my dorm

Yes Denny please come in, make yourself at home! I said to myself as he staggered his way in

You want him to come in Riley. You Wanna get some.

Aw come on! I thought that little annoying voice in my head had ran away…moved on, clearly not. Stupid thing!

I shook my head, closing the door behind me before turning my light on, putting my attention on Denny who was now sitting on my bed, staring at me

“Talk then, I aint got all night.” I said

“Why were you being off with me this morning?” he said pouting at me

“I wasn’t. Didn’t want the girl you were with standing around too long waiting for you cause that would be rude.” I said

“You sure that’s all it was?” he slurred

“What else would it be Denny?” I asked confused

“Jealously!” he replied

“Nope!” I said firmly

I don’t think he believed me. Wonder if that’s why he never called me cause he thought I was jealous or pissed at him.

“I don’t believe you…but OK.” He smirked

“f**k you Denny.” I said flipping him off

With that he stood from the bed, coming towards me. He reached for my hips, pulling me against him. All I could smell on his breath was Scotch, beer and cigars. Seems like he has been having a good night.

“You already done that Riley, more than once.” He said smugly, reaching into kiss me

“No chance.” I said pushing him away “You smell like a brewery and God only knows where your lips have been tonight.” I added

“That was mean and uncalled for Riley.” He said in all seriousness

I could not help but laugh at his drunken ass which he never seemed pleased about. He stood there, arms folded over his chest, glaring at me with a pout on his lips which made me laugh even harder. The more I laughed, the more pissed he seemed to get.

“Screw you Riley.” He hissed, heading for the door, stumbling…luckily I got to him, holding him up before he actually fell.

“Come on you, you need to sleep it off.” I said, holding him up, leading him to my bed

“Probably best. Sorry I was an ass to you Riles.” He said sadly “You come to bed with me?” he added, the cutest smile on his lips

“Don’t worry about it. And yes I am coming to bed with you…too sleep before you get any other ideas.” I laughed

He smiled, nodding his head. He sat down on my bed, trying to get his clothes off, failing miserably. I giggled, shaking my head before giving him a hand, making sure to keep his boxers on though.

He lay down, shifting on the bed towards the wall, patting the space next to him for me to lay down with him which I did. As soon as I did he pulled me close to him, kissing my forehead and sighing. WTAF? Something don’t seem right here. What is he up to?

“And Riley my lips have not been anywhere tonight.” He said kissing my neck softly causing me to whimper a little.

“Denny I seen you kissing that girl this morning, no need to lie to me about it…it’s fine, you can do whatever you want to do.” I said

“Oh yeah, forgot about her…sorry about that, nothing else happened between her and I though. And nothing happened when I was out with the guys either, even though there was few trying it on, I wasn’t interested.” He whispered, stroking my cheek

“Why? It is not like you, since when did you reject woman?” I asked confused

“Was not in the mood. Plus you have kind of been on my mind all night Riley.” He said softly

He is messing with me right? Well seen he is drunk if he is talking this way to me.

“What?” I asked

“Forget I said anything.” He said kissing me softly “Sleep now baby.” He added

“Ok.” I replied turning away from him, my back facing him, not to be rude that is just how I sleep.

He shifted, his front against my back, his arm wrapping around me, spooning me.

“Night beautiful.” He whispered kissing the skin of my bare shoulders, a sigh escaping my lips when he done that

“Night Denny.” I replied, linking my fingers with his.

In no time he was sound asleep. I however could not sleep, what he said to me playing on my mind even though I know he only said it because he was drunk. I lay there staring at the ceiling for what felt like forever before I eventually found myself drifting off to sleep.
