CHAPTER ELEVEN

"I swear I'll never have anything alcoholic again" tamara moaned, ducking up from the loo.
"You said that last time this happened too" Daphne replied, making herself comfortable on the edge of the bath. Tam nodded thoughtfully. "I suppose I did." she said. "i feel much better mnow, anyway."
"Good" Daphne replied absent-mindly. She leaned over the bathtub and grabbed a little jar. "What's this?" she muttered to herself. "Wareb- to make the skin look young again-hey Tam check this out!"
"You're kiddin'!" yelled Tamara, taking a look at the jar. "Gee, wonder who's that is!"
"J's, of course. Like Sean'd bother. " "Hmm" replied Tamara, lifting several jars, bottles and tubes on the selve above the bath.
"Is it me or are those guys vain?" Daphne exclaimed, peering over as well.
"This really is horrible you know" Tamara told her friend in a dramatic voice. "Now it's final. They're gay."
"Yeah right, and just a minute ago you told me Sean was in Dee's top."
"Well, maybe he was just curious, and wants to have a fair set himself, if you know what I mean." Tamara grinned and Daphne laughed at that. Unfortunately, at that moment J came into the bathroom.
"Do you mind?" he asked. "I wanna use the loo."
"Sure, J" Daphne answered, and the girls walked out of the bathroom. Just before they left, Daphne leaned back through the door and said: "Oh, J. Remind me in 20 years from now to lend your 'wareb', will you?" She smiled sweetly before getting away with Tamara.
"What the..."
From outside the bathroom, he heard Daphne and Tamara laugh loudly, leaving him behind confused...

And he wasn't able to recover, because just seconds later Sean walked into the bathroom "We're outta drinks" he announced. "Party's over."
J nodded. "Yeah. Let's kick �em all out."
"All?" Sean asked raising his eyebrows questioning. "What about that girl you were with?"
"Katja. We're having dinner next week."
Sean stuck his thumb up at him. "Good for you. You know I have the feeling the girls are doing this on purpose, you know, hooking us up."
"I know, but I don't give a damn. It's great, actually, don't you agree?"
Sean mumbled something under his breath, then said:"C'mon, let's go kick those freaks out."
"Let's keep Daphne here. She can clean up" J said evilly, thinking back of what she just did to him.
Sean nodded. "It's worth a try."
They walked back to the living room together, then split up-J walked towards Abs to ask him to shut down the music and Sean walked over to the couch-corner, where everyone seemd to have gathered. "People" he said, but was overdone by the loud music and chatting. He sighed and put his hands in his pockets, waiting for the music to stop so he could be heard. Very suddenly the music stopped abruptly, and Sean suspected that J had just pulled the plug. Everyone went silent, and Sean took the opportunity to say: "Party's over, chaps. Everyone can go home except for Daph because she can clean up."
"Would you want to" the red-haired girl replied but she smiled, so Sean knew it was alright.
J and Abs made their way to the crowd, and J clapped his hands while saying:"OK, we ran outta drinks so party's over. Run along, people."
"What he means to say is "go out and play"" Rich grinned looking at Daphne, recalling her say the line meaning the same thing. She stuck her tongue out at him but before he could make another remark, J grabbed Rich's arm and pulled him away from Dalish. "That will do, Neville" he told him firmly. "Out y'all!!"
