Location: Just… follow the screams.[/sub][/color][/center][hr][hr]

[indent]By this point in the night, Noah and Cassie were far past drunk. They were sloshed. The bottle of Smirnoff had given it’s last drop to the duo only moments before, who’d spent the last hour or so drinking, crying, and laughing. Typical drunk person activities. For Noah, though, this was all new. His head felt heavy, and his stomach was churning, but that didn’t stop him from climbing on top of the railing, which was the only thing protecting him from the cold ocean below. [color=7eff9a][b]“I’m the king of the world!”[/b][/color] he shouted, his words slurred, as Cassie giggled and cheered behind him, her face flushed red from all of the liquor.

Scott’s luck had seemed to run out. First, he’d ran into Katie. That, of course, had went brilliantly. Then, he’d went to the food table, and found that his favorite kind of pie was either not there, or completely eaten. Both were equally sinful. [i]And then[/i], he ran into Cassie and Noah. Holding his massive plates of food in either hand, he stared at the pair of them, both obviously very drunk, and [i]Scott Lyon put his foot down.[/i]

[color=e2e520][b]“You guys can’t drink no more tonight! Ya’all need to get away from the edge of the boat before your drunk asses tumble into the ocean and die a shitty death! Go on, ya rat bastards, get! I gotta eat.”[/b][/color] Scott hissed, waving around the plate of pie.

Cassie looked over at Scott, and rolled her eyes. [color=f1cbff][b]“We were here first, Scotty! Find somewhere else to be mopey,”[/b][/color] she teased, as Noah laughed from his perch on the railing, teetering slightly, and laughing even harder. [color=f1cbff][b]“Me and my new friend were having a lovely conversation. Didn’t your mom teach you not to interrupt?”[/b][/color]

[color=e2e520][b]“First off, don’t call me Scotty, that’s for special people. Secondly, I’m not here to mope, I’m here to eat my pie and enjoy my night for the first time. Noah, get down from there!”[/b][/color] Scott barked, stepping forward and setting down one of his plates before he wrapped an arm around Noah’s waist and pulled him off of the railing, sitting him down on the floor. [color=e2e520][b]“You gotta be careful, dude, Katie would bitch at me for like 18 hours, that harpy, goddammit.”[/b][/color]

Noah, having been relocated to the floor, was now pouting, his arms crossed and his head down. Cassie on the other hand was glaring at Scott. [color=f1cbff][b]“Scott! I can’t believe you just assaulted my friend!”[/b][/color] she screamed, her tone rife with disgust.

[color=e2e520][b]“Or she could bitch at me anyway.”[/b][/color]

Before the situation escalated past a point of no return, one blonde actress and her green-haired friend rounded the corner. Katie’s face screwed up in confusion for a moment, and turned to anger the moment she processed that Scott was there. [color=ba314c][b]“Of course you’re here!”[/b][/color] she complained, shoving past him and over to Noah, who was still pouting on the floor. 

[color=0073d8][b]“Well… that was easier than expected.”[/b][/color] Dixon said quietly from beside Katie. Finding Bible Dude didn’t turn out to be that hard of a task. Before him, he recognized Noah who, for whatever reason, was sitting on the ground. There was also some random drunk chick with Noah. Scott was here too, which was probably going to go swimmingly now that he and Katie were within ten feet of each other again. JD took in a preparatory breath and waited for the explosions.

[color=ba314c][b]“Jesus, Noah, how much did you drink? You smell like a fucking distillery!”[/b][/color] Katie said, crouching beside him and wrinkling her nose at the aggressive scent of vodka

[color=7eff9a][b]“Don’t woooooory! It was only a lot!”[/b][/color] Noah said, giggling like a middle schooler, much to Katie’s chagrin. She stood back up and glared at Scott and Cassie. [color=f1cbff][b]“I’m guessing you assholes got him trashed? This is so fucking like you, Scott! Immature, and reckless!”[/b][/color]

[color=e2e520][b]“ME!? Why the fuck you THINK I did it? I don’t even care about him! Besides, I wouldn’t [i]assault[/i] him either, he’s a PUSSY! I don’t beat up people who can’t fight for themselves, goddammit. I’ll have you [i]know[/i] that I pulled him down from the ledge before he fell into the ocean and died! What is your problem, bitch?”[/b][/color] Scott yelled, shooting a look at Katie. This fucking bitch, no matter what he did, she went ballistic on him!

[color=0073d8][b]“Dude, don’t call him a pussy. It’s not his fault that you hate Katie.”[/b][/color] Dixon said to Scott, squinting at him disapprovingly. He briefly glanced down at the rather pathetic looking boy. Maybe he was a pussy, but he didn’t deserve to be called that just because Scott was riled up. [color=0073d8][b]“You two should just hate fuck and give the rest of us a break.”[/b][/color] He said grumpily, looking from Scott to Katie.

Katie could feel her heart beating faster and faster, her stomach doing flips. Why did Scott make her feel so...unhinged? It didn’t matter. This wasn’t the time for deep personal insights. [color=ba314c][b]“First off, don’t call me a bitch and second off, Dixon, I would never fuck Scott,”[/b][/color] Katie said, shooting a glare over at her friend. [color=ba314c][b]“I don’t believe in beastiality,”[/b][/color] Katie said, her eyebrows raising as she dared Scott to continue their verbal duel, then turning to pick Noah up off the ground.

[color=0073d8][b]“Whatever you say…”[/b][/color] Dixon said under his breath. He put his hands in the pockets of his hoodie uncomfortable. Maybe he should get Bible Dude out of the crossfire and leave the lovebirds to do their thing.

[color=e2e520][b]“Listen up, you fucker. Just because you don’t like me doesn’t make me a goddamn animal! I’ll have you know I have friends that actually [i]like me[/i] and aren’t just bullied into submission like Noah over there is. Yeah, that was fucked up the way you treated him earlier, dude! You turned the fire straight onto him, because you can’t control yourself!”[/b][/color] Scott snapped, half ready to throw something at her, already. Why did this always happen? And why couldn’t he just walk away from her?

Katie turned to face Scott again, falling right back into the familiar rhythm of their constant back and forth. [color=ba314c][b]“Yeah? And where are those friends right now Scott? Cause I don’t see any!”[/b][/color]

[color=e2e520][b]“They’re off living their own lives because I can handle not being the center of attention for most of my life, you goddamn spotlight whore! I can’t even eat my fuckin’ pie in peace because you [i]heatseeker’d[/i] toward me, and blew a goddamn gasket, so now we’re just BACK AT IT AGAIN! I hate you more than I hate ANYTHING.”[/b][/color]

As their screaming escalated, Cassie sidled over to Dixon. Leaning over, she whispered in the boy’s ear, a simple question. [color=F1CBFF][b]“[sub]Are they always like this?[/sub]”[/b][/color]

[color=0073d8][b]“Yes.”[/b][/color] He responded equally as simply to her. JD did a double take and realized who the drunken girl was. She was one of the populars. The hot girls plus Marshall that called themselves something stupid. Sweeties? He couldn’t exactly remember it. [color=0073d8][b]“Uhh, Cassie, right? I’m JD.”[/b][/color]

Cassie grinned. [color=f1cbff][b]“Yep, that’s me! I like your hair! Noah did not do it justice,”[/b][/color] she said with a giggle.

Meanwhile, Katie and Scott were still going at it, their voices tearing through the muffled music and the sea below. [color=ba314c][b]“I am so not an attention whore! It’s not my fault people think I’m better than you at everything!”[/b][/color]

[color=e2e520][b]“Like fuck you ain’t! All you ever do is try to get people to pay attention to you, since they can’t differentiate you from Shauna, or separate you from your older brother in their heads. You’re replaceable! Interchangeable! You’re IRRELEVANT!”[/b][/color]

Dixon looked surprised, he even made eye contact with Cassie for confirmation. Noah didn’t do it justice? As in, Noah was talking about him? JD chewed at his lip ring nervously. [color=0073d8][b]“Do it justice? ...uhh, thanks.”[/b][/color] He said and looked away from her quickly, his eyes flicking back to the drunk boy who Katie had gotten distracted from helping up. Dixon walked over and offered Noah a hand. [color=0073d8][b]“C’mon, we should probably… go. Or watch from afar. Do something that’s not standing here, at least.”[/b][/color] JD said quietly.

Cassie looked over at the two boys, and smiled, before tapping JD on the shoulder and gesturing for him to follow, quietly removing herself from the volatility of Katie and Scott.

[color=ba314c][b]“Go to hell, Scott!”[/b][/color] Katie shouted, not even noticing the others vacating the premises. [color=ba314c][b]“You’re an arrogant brat, no more, no less!”[/b][/color]

[color=e2e520][b]“Oh, shut up, you dumb cunt!”[/b][/color]

Oof, mom told him never to say that.

That was it. The metaphorical straw that broke the metaphorical camel’s back. Katie ran at Scott, like a bat outta hell, only for Scott to step out of the way, and for Katie to take a trip. A trip into the cold waters that waited below.

[color=e2e520][b]“...son of a bitch.”[/b][/color]

Without even a second of hesitation, Scott ripped his jacket off and dove after her before she even hit the water.[/indent]
