Being that I had only consumed alcohol once before, I decided to take it slow. Yeah, I got a buzz quickly, but I was nowhere near drunk. Fifteen minutes later, it was something different. I definitely didn't have the slightest inclination what affects it had on the mind and body. Why didn't someone warn me? By the time the wine kicked in to its full capacity, our guests were starting to leave. I had to piss something terrible so I rushed to the bathroom. Someone was in the main one, so I rushed back to my bedroom. Strangely, the door was closed. I had just passed DeAndre so I knew it couldn't be him in there. I twisted the knob and began to go in. "I'm in here," I heard a guys' voice yell out but it was too late. I already had fully entered. My mouth opened and my bottom lip dropped. What I was seeing before my eyes I could not believe.
