"Oh god. I love on the third." She said, giving a comedy smack to her head. "Well, no bother, I'll get you to yours and then continue on up." She smirked as she wrapped her arm around Obie's waist to help her up the awkward stairs to her floor.

With much stumbling and giggling, Obie managed the stairs with Sib's help. Walking down the hall, she stopped at her door and pulled her keys out, then turned and leaned back against the door with a wide grin for her friend.
"Thank you for a top notch evening," she grinned and sloppily saluted her. "I had a blast. We'll have to go out again sometime."

"Aye, cap'n." Sib laughed as she stepped backwards. "I did throughly enjoy myself and I shall see you around." Laughing as Obie fumbled with her keys she made her way up to her own room to collapse on her bed fully clothed.

After a few moments of struggling with her keys, they slipped from her fingers and she glared down at them with a heavy sigh. No matter. She had another bed she could crawl into. Leaving her keys where they were, she walked down the two doors to Ra's and leaned against it. Trying her best to keep her giggling under control, she knocked on the door, not thinking to try the doorknob.
"Ne-chan!" she called out, then dissolved into a fresh fit of giggles.

Ra was not asleep, he had been praying, a rare thing for him to do. It was the time of hajj and both his father and his uncle were making the journey for the second year in a row. Knowing the dangers they could face whilst paying their respect to allah at Mecca he found himself kneeing in their direction and reciting the words that had been forced into him as a child.
He was just finishing as he heard Obie's knock and her stifled giggles. What the hell was she up to so late. He wondered to himself as he stood from the prayere mat and walked over to open the door.
"Obie, shhhh." he began as he was hit with the smell of cigarettes and alcohol that seemed to cling to him.

"Shhhh," she mimicked him, placing a finger over her lips then burst into another fit of giggles. Taking a deep breath, she attempted to compose herself and, using the doorframe for support, she straightened and pointed down the hall.
"I can't get in. I can stay with you?" she asked, looking up at him and melted into more laughter.

Ra watched her uneasily and stood back to let her into the room.
"Sure." He said, noticing her keys on the floor next to his door and going to pick them up. "How come you've been drinking?" he asked as he closed the door.
He was concerned more than anything. He knew she wasn't supposed to drink and he knew why. Seeing her, wasted on his doorstep was troubling.
"Would you like some coffee?"

Obie had walked into his room and was standing in the middle of it looking around. She had seen it a hundred times, but had never noticed how boringly guyish it was. Laughing a little to herself at her observation, she almost missed his question. Spinning around, she tripped on her foot and fell to the floor in a giggling heap, then shrugged as she peered up at him.
"It was fun," she smiled and rested her arm over her forehead to make the room stop spinning. "You look goofy. Why are you wearing a dish towel?" she asked, peeking up at him from beneath her arm.

Ra watched her with a frown for a moment and closed his eyes for a moment. He smirked when she called the scarf on his head a dish towel and shook his head.
"It's not a dish towel." he said as he took it off and started to fold it. "I was praying and I have to cover my hair." he said simply as he placed it on the side and crouched down to help her up from the floor.
"I think you'll find the sofa more comfy than down there." He said as he slipped his arm around her slim waist and helped her up. "Who were you with?"

"Praying? Since when do you pray?" she asked as he stooped down to help her up. "Whoa..." she said, clinging to him and closing her eyes tightly as she was seized with a wicked wave of vertigo. "Don't!" she said, pressing her forehead against his chest and holding her hand up to tell him not to move. Taking a few slow, deep breaths, she slowly opened her eyes and looked up at him with a lopsided grin. "Okay. To the couch!" she declared, pointing to it.
"Ummm Sister Sib," she giggled.

Ra smirked and held her as she told him to wait.
"Since my dad and uncle are in Saudi Arabia trying not to get crushed to death at crazy religious celebrations." He explained, easing her down to the sofa carefully. "And I do pray, sometimes, you're usually snoring your head off." He smirked and walked over to the kitchen to get her a large glass of water. "Ahh sister Sib." He said handing her the water. "Thought you could out drink an Irish girl? Big mistake." he decided that whilst she was drunk it wasn't a good idea to tackle the wider implications of what she had done. She was far too blissfully unaware.

"Ha ha," she smirked and leaned back slowly, replacing her arm over her forehead, then laughed when he told her she had made a big mistake and took the glass from him.
"Hey! I matched her pretty damn good thank you very much," she smirked proudly. "We could have gone more, but we didn't want to miss the last train," she said then sipped the water slowly. "You missed out. You would have had a blast. Very good music."

Ra gave a snort of laughter and brushed some of her hair out of her face.
"I'm sure I would, trying to drag you two drunk and disorderlies home all the way from Tokyo." he said as he watched her. Thank god for the last train home he thought to himself. "Well, i'm glad you came back early. I might have been asleep if you were later."

The image of him dragging both her and Sib home sent her into another fit of giggles and she held the glass of water out for him to take it from her.
"Good job on our part then," she smirked, her eyes beginning to feel heavy. There was something she always used to do...
"Shower. And asprin and then sleep," she grinned, pointing to his bathroom which seemed miles away.

Ra smirked and tok the glass of water from her.
"Oh and I am supposed to be the one to aid you in all that am I?" He said as he moved to pick her up bride style. He would have convinced her to forget about it for the evening but if he was going to have to sleep next to her, which he stronglt suspected he would, it would help if she didn't smell like the bottom of an alcoholic's ash tray.
"Will you be all right?" He asked as he set her down on the edge of the bath and started to help her undress. "I've got to go and clear my books off the bed and get you a t-shirt or something." He continued as he turned the shower on. "I'll come and check you're all right in a bit o.k?"
