"Ooo damn! Look at that man go!" Ashley said, referring to Wesley Snipes, known for the moment as Blade, as he continued kicking the ass of Stephen Dorff, known as Deacon Frost.
The movie was almost over & Julia still felt empty, even though she was almost done with her ice cream. I thought ice cream was supposed to help a person who was feeling down, she thought as she watched Wesley & Stephen fight. So much for statistics... What do people know anyway? Definitely not enough to help a gal like me out... She smiled a little when Stephen exploded. Always had been her favorite part. Especially when now she could picture Stephen as Matt instead.
Ashley looked over at her friend & thought a moment. "You know what you need?"
"What?" asked Julia, looking from the movie to Ashley.
"You need a Lance cocktail."
"A what?"
"Lance cocktail."
"What's that?"
"I'll go make up one for you & make myself a Justin cocktail. You stay here & start Passenger 57. I'll be back in a shake of Justin's ass."
Julia watched Ashley disappear into the kitchen before she pushed her way up from the couch & made her way to the wide-screen TV, reaching up to the DVD played on top, pressing the eject button. When the tray pushed out, she grabbed the Blade video & put it back in it's Blockbuster case. She set the Blade case on the DVD stand & picked up the case for Passenger 57, dropping when she was startled by a sound of whirring & grinding in the kitchen. She picked up the case in a hurry & opened it, taking out the movie disc, placing in the DVD tray. Pressing the On/Off button, she set the case down & ran to the doorway of the kitchen to see Ashley holding the lid on the blender as ice circled the side, getting more & more crushed with each passing second. Walking back into the living room, Julia sat down on the couch with the DVD remote in her hand while she waited for Ashley to get back.
Finally Ashley emerged from the kitchen with 2 martini glasses & 2 spoons in her hands. �I�m baaaaack,� she giggled, handing Julia her drink & a spoon. Julia looked at Ashley's drink & saw hers was light blue with a mushroom on a blue toothpick.
Julia took the glass & looked at it. �What is it?� Inside her glass was a bunch of crushed, red-tinted ice with a black olive on a yellow toothpick that was sticking out of the drink.
�Well, we all know Lance loves the colors red & you love yellow right?"
"Yea... So?"
"Well, I don't like to drink & I know you don't either, so I crushed some of the ice from your freezer, colored your glass red, so it'll taste like either strawberries or cherries, & since I know you love yellow & black olives, I snuck into your bro's olive stash, took one out, killed it with one of y'alls colored toothpicks, stuck it in the ice & made mine."
"So why is yours blue with a mushroom?" Julia asked, raising her brow.
"Well, I love mushrooms & baby blue & so does Justin. So I made mine blue & killed the mushroom with a blue toothpick. Get it now?"
"Ashley, the only thing I get, is that you've finally lost your sanity. Thanks for the ice," Julia smiled.
Ashley smiled. "No prob chica. It was no problem. Besides, we need some Lance & Justin cocktails for another Wesley Snipes movie."
"And why is that?"
"We'll need the ice to keep you cool," Ashley giggled, poking fun as she sat down next to Julia.
"Oh would you just hush?" Julia said, shaking her head as she took the toothpick from the glass, biting the olive off of it.
"I will when you turn on the movie."
Julia picked up the DVD remote & press the On/Off button, clicking into the movie after surfing through the menu.
