The Fool

Looking at Mylene Aidan is somehow satisfied, his head doesn´t hurt, he´s calm and actually happy she danced with him. Before he can do anything Mylene is once again close to him.
“So, what do you want to do now?”
“What? The party is over so what do you mean?”
“I said I´ll spend the rest of the evning with you, so what do you want to do next?”
“I´m sorry Mylene, but right now I just want to go home and sleep. I´m tired to the bone.”

Steve who has watched them both walks over to them
“Yo Aidan, you looked full of energy when you danced but now you look like you´re just about to fall apart. Shall we call it a night?”
“Steve, yeah, I´d really love to go home and sleep now”
“Alright, I´ll go grab a taxi since it´s the fastest way to get home. I´ll be outside”
“I´ll walk with you Steve”

as Aidan starts to walk with Steve towards the exit he suddenly feel someone grabbing his arm from behind, standing with an angry face Mylene looks like she is about to get really mad.
“You know Aidan, if I didn´t know better I´d say you were drunk as hell when you forget me that easy”
“Yeah, I´m drunk like there´s no tomorrow, first time I´m drunk so what do you expect?”
“Just that you´ll be a gentleman and escort me to my friends before you walk of”
“I think I´m able to do that. Sorry Steve, need to escort this fair lady first.”
“Sure thing Aidan, I´ll be waiting outside.”

Swaying from side to side as he walks, Aidan starts to look for Mylene´s friends. After looking through the whole building for her friends and not finding them they walk to the exit, get their clothes and then walk outside.
Steve is standing besides a taxi, having opened the door he´s talking with the driver, as he spots Aidan and Mylene he says a quick word to the driver and walks over to them
“Yo, so did you find your friends Mylene?”
“No, we looked everywhere inside and I looked for them outside here as well but no sign of them.”
“So, are you interested in taking a taxi with us back home? I´ve already paid the driver so”
“I couldn´t, atleast I have to pay for my share”
“No problem, and you get to spend more time with Aidan so what´s the problem?”
“Excuse me Steve, but did you forget I´m standing right here hearing every word you say?”
“I thought you were out cold by now Aidan, you´re really keeping up against the sleep and all that vodka. But jokes aside, let´s get into the taxi and get you home”
“Yeah, sounds like a good idea.”

Steve leads Aidan to the taxi with Mylene walking along behind them, after helping Aidan in the backseat Steve takes the front seat and Mylene gets in the backseat together with Aidan. The taxi drives of and along with Steve telling the driver the address of Aidan´s home they start of. Aidan who now is feeling all the vodka he drank before is starting to feel weird, he feels sick, his vision is playing tricks with him since everything spins around and around.
Then the taxi takes a fast turn and Aidan isn´t able to withstand the force so his body and most over his head takes a turn against Mylene, somehow managing to miss her shoulder his head lands straight on her breasts, sending a soft feeling to his face.
Feeling ashamed he tries to move away but all he is able to do is move his head upwards and as he goes infront of her eyes he can see anger in them, but she doesn´t do anything.
“I´m sorry” he whispers to her
“It´s ok, for this time”

Moving back to his side of the taxi Aidan tries to counter all possible moves the taxi might do.  As he is about to fall asleep he feels something hit his shoulder, taking a quick look he sees Mylene´s sleeping face using his shoulder as a pillow. Not wanting to wake her up since she must be tired he looks forward, Steve looks at him with a big grin on his face and suddenly he says: We´re here Aidan, it´s your place.

Trying to wake Mylene up but with no prevail he looks at Steve with a wordless question “What should I do now?”
“You should try and carry her outside of the car Aidan” is the spoken answer he gets
“Why?”
“I don´t know her address and it seems like she is in a deep slumber and won´t wake up easily so you take her with you. If she went with me then she would probably kill me when she wakes up”
“I´m not to sure if she won´t kill me this time…”
“Sorry to interrupt you little chat boys, but the meter is ticking and I want to get home as well”
“Sorry, we´ll leave these two here” Steve tells the driver

Making way since Aidan has to lift Mylene up carefully without hitting her head in the higher part of the door he gently lifts her out of the taxi, holding her in his arms. He walks to the other side of the taxi and takes a quick look in to see Steve
“You be a real gentleman tonight Aidan and I´ll take care of everything here. Good night”
“I´ll try to Steve, but who knows what´ll happen? Anyway l´ll do my best, good night to you to”

As he watches the taxi take of once again Aidan stands there with Mylene in his arms, once again he is surprised by how light she is. Carrying her to the door he puts her feet down, opens the door and then carries her inside, moving to his bedroom and puts her down on his bed, he moves some sheets away and then places her down on the pillow as gently as he can and then he moves the sheets over her so she won´t be cold.

That being done he goes outside of his bedroom, closes the door and walks to the toilet, brushing his teeth and preparing for bed, he also drinks a lot of water since everyone has told him drinking water is great way not to get a hangover.
When he´s done he walks towards the sofa in his living room, takes some spare sheets with him along the way and crashes on the sofa, as soon as his head hit the edge of the sofa he´s fast asleep. Dreaming of how he danced with Mylene, a girl he´s starting to develop more feelings for…
