Krista and Ricki hated the second half of the game, and the longer it went.on, the.more the coach come over to them and read.over their shoulders. "Trenton, what is he passing average for our team?" He demanded and Ricki spoke.

"We normally make 81.43% of the passes, depending on the game and who it's passed to." She answered quickly and when coach walked off, Ricki looked to Krista. "I'm glad you do all this math stuff, I suck at it."

"I know." Krista said as they continued recording the numbers. By the time the game was over, they were so ready to get off that field and to Ricki's house. Maureen had joined them not too long after the gamer ended. 

"Ladies!" She squealed, "Time to turn up."

Ricki shook her head and took her car keys into her hands. "Then we better get there before the boys from the team get there." She said as Maureen and Krista looped their arms through Ricki's as they walked towards the parking lot. When they got to her black Dodge Charger, and they piled.in.

"You have all the drinks, right?" Maureen asked.

Krista laughed from the passenger's seat as Ricki took off. "Of course she does. Her brothers overstocked for her when they were in last week." 

Ricki sighed and nodded. "Maureen, you're coming with us tomorrow right? We need.to find dresses for the Winter formal."

Maureen nodded from the back seat. "Hell yeah! Got to make sure that my ladies look drop dead goregous." She laughed. "Considering I got my dress in yesterday."

Ricki and Krista smiled to each other as they pulled into Ricki's driveway and headed.into the house, turning the radio up super loud and getting everything ready. People were already showing up, and Maureen was greeting them as they drank. Ricki picked up a cooler and turned around to have it taken from her and she looked up to see David.

"Hey there, beautiful." He smiled, obviously still sucking up after their fight earlier in the week. "Can't let you hurt yourself."

"I'm a strong girl, Livingston." She chuckled, "But thank you, I do have more to do."

She walked out into the living room and saw the place filling up rather quick, and.light weight Maureen was already drunk. "Krista!" Ricki called, and Krista appeared with a bottle of beer in her hand. "Keep an eye on Maureen, for the love of god, we do not need a repeat of fourth of July on the lake." Ricki said, and when Maureen opened the door to show Jared and Carl, she noted how Maureen almost immediately spotted them.

"Pretty Ricki!! Krista Beauty!! Get your asses over here!" She called over the music, and Ricki looked about and saw David wasn't around, so she and Krista walked.over and Maureen gave them each a drunken kiss on the cheek. "Looky, Jerry and Carl found their way here."

Maureen's eyebrows moved up and down as she obviously eyed up Carl and shot him a wink. "Nice to see you could make, beer is in the coolers in this room, soda and bottled water is in the kitchen, enjoy yourselves, and if you need anything
 I'll be around."

Krista gave a huge smile. "She means it. A bathroom, a drink, a snack, a condom, a place to crash, she means it." She winked and Krista and Ricki both smiled but before they could walk off, two strong arms came around Ricki's middle and lifted her up as she squealed. 

"Bae, are you going to come and take shots with us and the cheerleaders. At least one of us are going to state." He said, and Ricki looked up to him when he caught site of Jared and Carl and cast look down to Ricki. 

"You know I can't, big plans for in the morning." She reminded.him, and he gave a pout. "No, D, go have fun, besides, I'm making my rounds, being a good host and all."

David nodded, and shot a look to Jared and Carl. "Enjoy the party, boys." He remarked and as he walked away, Ricki shook her head. 

"Why are you with him again?" Maureen slurred and Ricki shot her a look. Really? In front of first timers.

"Maureen, sing for us." Krista caught on quickly as she toted their drunken friend away from Ricki and the boys, and Ricki sighed.

"Anyway, bathroom is down this hall, third door on the left. The guest rooms are down this hallway to the right, if you do have to use one, just be sure to put the hanging take out menu on the door. Its the do not disturb sort of thing. I will start clearing out At about 2 am, so I have time to clean up, but if I deem you too drunk to drive, or your car is blocked in, You will stay here. Otherwise, the second floor isn't off limits, however, the two rooms with take out menus on the knobs are, and just try not to break anything." She said.

She gave them each a smile and she walked into the empty kitchen and hopped up on the counter as she opened a bottle of water and brought out her camera and began looking through the photos on it. She knew Maureen meant well, but to blatantly ask what she had, especially in front of the person who had no idea that David felt threatened by wasn't exactly ideal.

Ricki had barely met Jared and David immediately started suffocating her. It was odd, but she knew that he meant well. He had been so stressed out lately that she had taken the backseat, and when she confronted him about it, It caused a fight. Moat people would have never known, but he was trying his hardest to make it up to her.

She heard someone come on and she automatically spoke, "Water is over here, soda is in the cooler to your right." She spoke, and soon she heard Maureen.

"Pretty Ricki! I need you to play for me." She whined, and Ricki set down her camera and followed Maureen out into the living room that collectively spoke when the.music turned off, and the people doing shots stopped as Ricki Sat at the piano, and Maureen hushed.the.crowd, despite her drunkenness.

"Now, Now, shut your traps, and open your ears. I, the fabulous Maureen, shall be.singing along to our very own Pretty Ricki, so, shut the Fuck up and listen." She said, and Ricki cracked her knuckles as her fingers moved over the piano and.when David sat beside her, Maureen shook her.head.

"'Scuse you! She's my Rick right now, move along, buster." Maureen demanded and Ricki gave him a look as he moved away from her.and.soon Krista joined Carl and Jared.

"You guys are in for a treat. By the way, Carl, is it?" Krista asked, Looking to him, "Maureen wants to see you when they're done. She's kinda got a thing for you."
