Chapter 19, Finally

Troy had just slammed his fifth shot. Thanks to knowing Lyric he had built up a tolerance at least, so he was buzzing, but not incoherent like most of his friends. "It's my birthday, I thought I was supposed to be the one wasted" Troy joked..making his friends all laugh, quite obnoxiously. Spencer wrapped an arm around Troys neck, pulling him into him which made him almost fall out of his bar stool "Oh loosen up buddy, we're celebrating you! Why don't you pick up the pace and you can be like us" Spencer joked, "Yeah, take a shot!" Tyler persuaded, sliding a shot to Troy which spilt a little in the process. Troy escaped Spencer's grip and looked down at the shot, then looked up at Tyler, gawking at him, "I just took one, Somebody has to be able to drive us all back" Troy stated. Mason, who was sitting beside him, scoffed before pouring more cashews into his hand "I'm working on getting sober enough, I'm drinking water and eating cashews. If you don't take another shot and get wasted on your birthday, I'm gonna take that shot and shove the entire thing down your fucking face hole..now drink it." Mason threatened, staring him down. Troy slightly leaned back and stared back at him in fear silently for a moment before reluctantly picking up the shot, his eyes never leaving Masons. Mason flashed him an innocent smile and patted his back with his free hand before proceeding to pop the handful of cashews into his mouth. Troy tilted his head back and downed the liquor, when he set the shot glass back down he hissed at the burning sensation and awful taste, placing his hands onto the bar to steady himself. Spencer rubbed his back, giggling like a schoolgirl. "There There" Spencer comforted him. "Fuck you guys..and fuck me for letting you guys talk me into this shit. I just wanted to relax at home, share a joint with Lyric and watch a couple movies..maybe kiss her a little..and maybe more" He murmured, Spencer laughing, along with Mason. "You can do that later, but for now, just hang out with your buddies! You hang out with your girlfriend every single day, you live with the girl for petes sake" Tyler teased, Troy rolling his eyes. Troys phone lit up and Spencer snuck a peak before Troy turned his phone to face him. "Speak of the devil and she shall text" Spencer spoke slowly..Tyler giving Spencer a pat to the back to comfort him. Troy looked down at the text from lyric.

"Come outside and kiss me."

His eyes widened and he immediately sprung from his seat..all of his friends' eyes on him. "I'm out." Troy simply stated and abandoned his phone, his wallet, and all of his friends, hurrying out of the club. "Where the hell is he off to?" Mason stated, Tyler nosily picked up Troys phone and his eyes scanned over the words briefly, chuckling. "He's going to go get some Sterling tongue, he'll be back shortly. Or maybe not depending on how well it does" Tyler said, setting his phone back down. Spencer laughing obnoxiously.

(Troys POV) He rushed up the stairs and to the exit, pausing at the door to see Lyric standing a few feet from the door with an umbrella in hand, she was wearing a comfortable knee length, black, long sleeved dress, her hair let down which let her curls beautifully frame her face and a big smile was spread across her face, she was wearing red lipstick that made his heart skip a beat..she looked so gorgeous. Troy couldn't help but smile either as he opened the door. "Hi..Happy birthday" She said softly, although he could barely hear her over the rain smashing down onto the ground around them. He smiled wider if that was even possible as he walked to her "Hey gorgeous, thank you" Troy whispered while he approached her, stopping when their body's were barely inches away from another. Lyric gazed up at him as their chests brushed against each other with every breath..her hand came up the side of his face and pushed a strand of loose hair back, briefly entangling her hand in his hair. His hand creeped up her waist and pulled her body into his, closing the space between them. His other hand cupped her cheek and be bent down, their lips meeting. Lyric instantly kissed him back, grinning against his lips. When he felt her smile he couldn't help but to smile too, the corner of his mouth lifting up. Lyric lost focus and the umbrella draped to the side, allowing the rain into their space. They were too focused on each other to even care, and lyric just let the umbrella go, wrapping her arm around his neck and pulling him closer. Lyrics tongue gently swept his bottom lip for permission and he granted it, their tongues brushing each-other. Her touch was captivating, her smell and taste devouring, he wasn't sure that he was going to be able to stop. Lyric leaned back enough to look at him, Her smell had always intoxicated him, strawberries with maybe a hint of cinnamon, but being this close it was almost as if he could taste it. "You look pretty" Troy breathed, his eyes struggling to leave hers to look down at her outfit, she smiled again. "Thank you, you do too" She murmured.. making Troy laugh and cock an eyebrow "I look pretty, hm?" Troy whispered, tucking away a strand of her hair, Lyric chuckled shortly, her cheeks flushing pink. "Shut up" Lyric uttered, grinning from ear to ear. Making him smile again. Lyrics eyes fell down to his lips once again and she leaned back in, her lips melting into his as he instantly returned her kiss. "We're getting wet" She murmured against his lips, briefly returning the kiss again until Troy leaned back "Then let's go inside" He said and intertwined his fingers in hers, leading her inside. "I planned on coming in for a few minutes but I wanted to make sure you guys were okay with it first..that's why I texted" She said softly. "You could have just come down, Ly, everyone likes you they wouldn't have mind" Troy replied and she smiled, until realization spread across her face and she gasped and turned to looking out the door. "Oh shit, my umbrella!" Lyric caught a glimpse of it disappear into the distance. Troy began cackling, Lyric turning back to look at him and slapping his shoulder. "Not funny! I loved that umbrella" Lyric whined..Troy giggling a couple times before pulling her close again, "It's okay baby, I'll buy you a new one I promise" Troy murmured, a trace of a grin on his lips. "You better since you're the one who made me drop it" She whispered, running her thumb over his bottom lip to remove the lip stick smear she left. "Hmm..You have a little something" Troy muttered, taking both of his thumbs to gently run around the outline of her lips, wiping away the smeared lipstick.
