So we go back to my place.
Those friends I'm saying to hang with are my equally weeby roommates.
The guy I want to set Siberia up with, James, is a very charismatic person and immediately goes into 'let's party' mode to break the ice
I do my best to smooth things, at a lul setting up the media box and getting out a board game or something.
I tell my friend I'm tagging him in, he's interested
>'don't pump and dump this one James, she's had a hard life, if you don't want her for keeps don't fuck with it'
They seem to really hit it off, everythings going great.
>"what do you drink Syberia?"
>"Tequila, if I have a choice"
We're all drinking beers, watching some grindhouse flick, and she's going hard, James takes a couple shots with her, and she keeps going.
>"Aly told me you were a lightweight, I guess she was wrong right?"
>'I am, but this is how I drink'
She is thrashed, all the rest of us are dead sober. She disappears into the bathroom, and the guys are aleady talking plan of action. I go to check our how she's doing, to mom friend her.
>go in after asking how she's doing
>talk to her
>she pukes
>go to physically comfort her
>slaps my hand away
>'I don't like being touched'
>"no worries Syberia, I get it, sorry about that. Want me to leave?"
>'no, stay, please, I don't like being alone'
>"I'm here for you Syberia, take your time ok? Those guys get it, don't worry about then they can entertain themselves"
>she smiles at my intentional gay inuendos, the stops
>'do you think James likes me?'
YES, IN
>"yeah, he asked me if you were seeing anyone, he'd really like to get to know you better"
She has this really dark look.
>'does he?'
>"...He's been through some shit. He'd understand."
She doesn't really seem to hear me. She starts murmmering to herself, it's obvious she's spiralling.
>~Fuck you Aly~
I lightly touch her elbow to get her to stand and 'get some fresh air' with me..
