Drunk Night

Marcella's cheek has turned to red, such a blooming flower in the spring season. She looked so cute with those pink blush on the cheekbones.

Meanwhile, the fake Artemis, Ariel, kept staring and chuckling at her silly reaction after drinking.

"So you never have a boyfriend before?" asked Ariel while sipping more beers from his bottle.

"Nope ... never have one! I'm like a Nun! Hahaha!" Marcella laughed out loud but seemed so cute to Ariel.

"Even though the Nuns sometimes drink but you're not. What should I call you then?" Marcella tried to think as if it was the most crucial question. She rolled her doe eyes and hardly thinking about the answer.

"I'm just joking, do not overthink it!" added Ariel after some minutes of staring at her. Marcella nodded, then chuckled. Now she has a spinning head after drinking almost bottoming of a bottle.

"Oh, is there an earthquake?" she asked with her dumb look.

"No, why?" Ariel scrunched his forehead asking her.

"Cuz, this place is spinning!" Ariel chuckled and drank more. He has five bottles already, while Marcella only has one. But Ariel still sober to hear Marcella started slurring her words due to her weak alcohol response level.

"Do you want to go home, now?" asked Ariel afterward.

"Huh ... nope, the night still young! I want to have fun!" Miraya said and grinned confidently.

"Sure, but can we continue the last talk we had about the matchmaking plan?" Marcella put her shoulder down and nodded in a serious look.

"So ... do you say that we should ... drop our parent's plan?" replied Marcella staring at Ariel. Ariel did the same thing and nodded.

"Hopefully, you won't get offended on that!" Ariel muttered softly. Marcella raised her beautiful smile and swayed her head.

"My sister ..." Marcella stopped suddenly because she almost revealed her secret 'switching' plan.

"I mean, I want to have my decision about someone to love or date," she added in a few minutes. Ariel bit his lips and nodded understandingly.

"So do I," said Ariel in his low tone. Marcella nodded and drank more from the bottle until done.

"I just don't know how to talk to my parents, but I'll try to find the way, though," Marcella added more to her statement. Ariel was still gazing at her and said nothing.

"I think you should go home." Marcella was quiet and eyed up at Ariel's attractive slanted eyes. She nodded once and kept bowing her head after.

"Do you bring your car? How do you get here?"

"Uhm ... I have my car, but my head so spinning right now." Ariel grinned, then raised his hand to pay the bill.

"I can pay ..."

"It's okay. It's on me. After all, we won't meet anymore after this. So no worries!" Marcella only nodded and wait for him to finish paying the bill.

In a moment, Marcella has to walk from the table across the hall to get to the main door to go out. But she always stumbled around or hit some tables or other visitors.

Therefore, Ariel initiative to help Marcella by grabbing her shoulder to walk nicely to the outside.

"You okay?" asked Ariel with his anxious expression. Marcella turned her face to him, and it occurred. There was a spark there when they met eyes to eyes. They were just like staring at each other souls, and in the next minutes, it made both of them blushing hard.

"Let me help you!" blurted Ariel breaking the ice. Marcella gave him a friendly, sweet smile and answering.

"Thank you!" Ariel smiled back at her and helped her to go outside. After seeing Marcella impossible to drive, he decided to take her home in his car. At first, Marcella denied his offering because she has to pick Miraya at the construction highway.

"I'll be fine, and you don't need to take me home!" Marcella then tried to grab her keys, but her spinning head won't leave her a chance. So the keys jumped out of the bag to the floor. Ariel scoffed, then grabbed it to give back at her.

"If there's something happen to you, I'll be regretting it for the rest of my life!" replied Ariel with a similar severe expression.

"Come on, get inside!" asked Ariel opening his car's door in front. Marcella could not protest it anymore because she did not want to make him suspicious. So she got in and put on her seat belt.

Ariel drove out of the parking lot, leaving Marcella's BMW sport there. She's getting into an old but comfy Toyota. After a few minutes of driving, Marcella started feeling inebriating to her head. Her eyes became so hard to open, and the lids as if they glued to each other.

She leaned her head to the window and closed her eyes.

'Maybe I could sleep for a while!' said Marcella on her mind. But the problem arose in the next few minutes. Ariel forgot to ask for her address when she was sober.

"Uhhmm ... hello ... are you sleeping right now? Girl?" Ariel asked Marcella by poking her arms side.

"Shit, she's out!"

"Oh ... I'm so genius. I forget to ask her address and name. Damn Ariel! You're so dumb!" Ariel was cursing himself repeatedly about his thoughtless acts.

"What should I do now? I don't know where she lives!" exclaimed him more with a higher tone. He frequently glances a few times and also poking her, but she didn't budge at all.

So Ariel stopped at the side of the road to check her ID or something to help him find an address. He took her bag to see inside the purse.

"If she wakes up, she probably thinks that I'm a pickpocket!" muttered Ariel kept searching for any card to give him info. But he could not find anything related except something that made him frowned.

There's a picture in the purse that grab his attention—a picture of twin babies on their cute cradle. The babies looked so much similar to each other, but he didn't know if it's the girl's picture or not.

"Hhhmm ... is it your picture? Do you have twin's sister?"
