Party at the Echolls house (After dark)

[fh_jackass]

Logan's house hasn't managed to aquire much clutter in the few days he's been living there, but there is half of a surfboard on the back deck. (It looks as though something bit it in half, and Logan himself has a bit of a limp, but he's not volunteering any explanations.)

The house is stocked and ready to go. The tiki torches have all been lit. Condoms are discreetly stashed in drawers all over the house, the liquor cabinet has been unlocked (though the really good stuff is hidden in Logan's room), and the kitchen has been filled with food and drink mixables.

The only room locked up is the utility room - one of the roommates has an important project stashed in there.

Logan's heated up the grill, taste-tested some of the alcohol, and now he's in the living room playing Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

Parker shakes her head slowly, then thinks about it a second, tempted.

[fh_jackass]

Ah, she's wavering. "Come on," he says with a wink.

Echolls is amusing, but harmless, and between him, Michael disappearing, and the DJ stuck on the other side of the room--

"What the hell."

She grabs Logan's hand, drops the shoe, puts the drink down.

"One."

"Two."

"Three!"

She jumps in, hanging onto Logan's hand, laughing as the bubbles rise in the pool.

What the hell. She wanted a new Wang dress anyway.

*wanders over to the poolside, lights a cigarette, crouches down*

Hey, Parker. Looks like you're having fun. I was going to ask you to have a drink with me while I'm on break, but, uh... looks like you're otherwise occupied.

*grins up at him flirtatiously*

I quit drinking hours ago, I've got friends to shepherd home.

*pulls herself out of the water in one stretch*

But you could always get me a Coke and keep me company.

*wiggles bare toes at him*

Let's do this thing, Parker.

Crap! Awesome timing, Thrace.

*to Rob* Gotta go. Bet of honor. But I think I'll be seeing you tomorrow, Gordon.

*leisurely gets to her feet, pulls the wet dress down, smiles once more, and then makes this announcement. (http://www.livejournal.com/community/fandomtownies/5447.html?thread=381511#t381511)

[alltime-top5.livejournal.com]

Looks like your friends are ready to head out. Bad timing, I guess.

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Sadly. Still, a deal's a deal. Can't let her just wander off in the dark while drunk.

*gets to her feet, steals Rob's cigarette, takes a long drag off it, her eyes closed* God, sorry, I needed that. Everyone here is so goddamn healthy.

*exhales, returns the cig*

*smiles, not at all coy*

See you sometime soon, Gordon.

**Narrative Monologue On**

Fuck. If I'm lucky, she'll forget about this, not come into the shop, and my fuckin' crazy libido can go focus on more legal sexual activities. Of course, if I'm unlucky, I'm still lucky. Leave it to my dick to make this a win-win situation.

***Narrative Monologue Off**

*drags self back to DJ set-up*

[fh_jackass]

Awesome. He grins, swimming towards her. "How's the water?" he asks.

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

She treads water for a second, then lazily kicks one leg in the air. "Buoyant. And thankfully? Chlorinated."

Parker grins and dives down to the bottom of the pool to touch the drain.

"Oh, crap!" Parker jumps in the water as Rory falls in, then yells to Logan, "Hey, she can't swim!" (http://www.livejournal.com/community/fandomtownies/ 5447.html?thread=379975#t392519)

"Dude, go save Rory!" Parker hissed. "Don't make me do it! I'm not the saving people type!"

Besides, I pushed her in, and she'll probably take me with her, Parker thought.
