I never had any complains on him!", she looks you through the rearview and her eyes were happy (or at least that's what you think. Your view in front of you is blocked. No complains, though), "Besides, I don't use this greek eye just because it's beautiful, you see..."
"It gives you protection?"
"You know the deal. A bit of protection and a bit of luck are never enough. Even more in Chicago...", she honks a couple of times to the car in front of her, opens her window and yells to whoever was there, "Move, puta! Anda!", the car gives her passage and she even gives them the middle finger. "You see what I'm saying? I could had crashed right there!"
"You seem a good driver"
"I sure am!", she gives you another happy look through the rearview. Doesn't take much longer and you are all already at Hyde Park. Grace got a sweet spot near the grass and some houses, but really in the heart of the park. A blessing and a strike of luck. Thank you, greek eye necklace!
You look at the lights and trees surrounding everything.You strangely feel at peace there. You breathe the air and seems... Pure? Not same level of air purity in trails or countryside. You didn't feel so much polution. Maybe your sense is altered due to booze, but you doubt for a minute. You take this time to stretch since everyone was doing this as well.
"Let's go for a walk", Peter says, already walking on the grass and even kicking some fallen leaves, letting the breeze guide these leaves anywhere else, "I know a nice place here"
James throws his arm up in the air, yelling in happiness, almost sound like a howl. Kimberly and Lamar laugh at his enthusiastic behavour, while Hekko seems to express no reaction to that.
"Hold on there, tiger!", you tease James, "This is still residencial area, you know? Look at the time"
"Fuck the time, bro! There's no time like now to celebrate, no matter the time!"
"What you said contraditcs what you are saying, you know?", Lamar points out and James answers him showing the finger. Lamar laughs back, "You dumb bitch"
"A proud bitch, mind you", he points out. It's weird to see him more drunk than he's with you, but he wasn't causing any ruckus. It's different, but your mind can't stop to hammer you with previous bad experiences. You said to yourself his other friends were here and they could help taking care of him. Let this be. You aren't only one tonight.
