I had an amazing experience last night which I am finding hard to keep to myself. My girlfriend was having a girls night out. She was having 4 of her best friends over. Now usually when the girls go out they get wild drunk and head out pubbing and clubbing together. But last night they decided they were going to drink some vodka in our place before they went out. So my girlfriend made it clear to me, in a nice way, that she didn't want me around the house for a while.
I didn't mind at all. She would do the same for me if I was having the guys around to watch a game or something. So I rang up a friend of mine and arranged to watch a film over in his place.
Everything was all set. I left the house at 6 before the girls arrived. I kissed Lisa goodnight and told her to enjoy herself. I headed to town, collected a few beers and rented a dvd. Then I headed to my friends place.
At about 9.30 we decided to put on the dvd. 2 of the lads had called over to join us for the film. But the dvd player wouldn't work. We plugged it out and in, we tested the scart socket, nothing would work. All of us were disappointed. So I offered to run over to my place and get our dvd and bring it back.
"Lisa will not be happy!" one of the guys said.
"They've probably gone out by now anyway," I replied. "Besides, I'll just go in and grab it. They won't even notice I'm there."
So I headed off to my place. When I got to the front door I realised that the girls were still inside. I decided to take no chances. I rang Lisa from my mobile. She was definitely a bit drunk.
"Hi honey!" I said.
"Hi babe! Are you having a good night?"
"Am, well, I will be - but I have a favour to ask. Can I come by and grab our dvd?"
"What's wrong with Mikes dvd?" Lisa said.
"It's not working."
She hesitated. "Okay so. See you in a minute."
I decided not to say I was outside the door. I would just wait out here a minute. I took a peep through the glass on the door and I could see the girls in the sitting room. They were watching a film themselves. I strained my eyes - it appeared to be a porn movie! I couldn't believe it! Lisa never watched them with me. I smiled and put it down to the girls night out. So that's why she was hesitant.
I jumped as Lisa passed by the door. Luckily she didn't see me. She went to the sitting room and they stopped the film. I thought I heard protest, but Lisa was telling them they'd be going out soon.
I knocked on the front door before I entered.
"Hello!" I said, aloud. "Only me. I'll be gone in a minute."
I entered the sitting room to find Lisa there along with Lorraine, Aoife, Elaine and Shauna.
I gave Lisa a kiss.
"Hi girls. Sorry to interrupt the party. I'll be gone in a minute!"
I moved across the floor towards the dvd and that was when disaster struck. My coat caught the full but open bottle of vodka on the table and I pulled it to the floor.
"The drink!" Aoife shouted.
