David just by being consistant was pulling slightly away but it wasn't about the victory; this was about the journey they were making together over beer and darts. So David had a question for Graysen. "What sport was your team based round?" he posed also wondering something else. "And what do you think you'll end up doing in the isle?" he added. He was just curious rather than seeking the information. This time he hit the 3 segment first time but missed the 4 with the other two darts. Then drank more beer. Graysen Maddox

He took a second and looked at the aim board. He could not believe that he was having fun. "You know I am usually so shit at darts but I mean I am not that good but this is still fun. Next week I am throwing a barbeque I think if the weather holds up. would you be interested in joining me?" David Lightfeather

Now an invitation. He felt he could trust this man playing darts with him so nodded. "I would be interested but let me know the details later on so I can make it free" he replied. He didn't have a full social callendar but knowing a day, time and place would help. So the game rolled on a bit more along with more beer. Graysen Maddox

He, well everyone had a flaw and his was the more comfortable he got around alcohol the moore lose he got as in the more wild he might become and the dart game had brought out the best in him as he poured back four more shots and spoke. "Not going to lie I'm starting to barely be able to see but damn if this is not a fun night which I fuckin' love." He went to go throw the dart when he passed out and barely missed hitting his head as he sat up and crawled his way to a chair and spoke. "Alright I think I've had enough of the beer, don't need a hangover in the morning." David Lightfeather

A near miss occured but David wasn't going to leave Graysen lying here. "I'll better get you back home" David advised. "And it was a fun night all the same" he gently added. "I'll call an uber; so who should I tell in advance and where do I tell them to go?". He had mentioned a woman before. He looked concerned for his new friend but at least he had company when it happened and he wouldn't be abandoned here. Graysen Maddox

He was doing his best to keep it together but he almost felt like he had been poisoned. "Calling an uber sounds good," he said as he looked up and took a second. Had he been a fool to trust everything on this island he damn sure hoped not. "Sorry I went down faster than a sack of potatoes, it just hit me out of nowhere." David Lightfeather

David had seen this before at pub nights and probally would see many more times in the future. Not all alcohol was created equally and some you should really avoid unless you had gotten used to it. "No need to be sorry Graysen. Not every beer has the same alcohol level and they can sneak up on you; then catch you out. The problem being you won't know which ones unless you try them first. I seen that plenty of times when friends back in the UK figured craft beers would be a safe option and boy are there a lot of them. I've even known folks who brew their own" he gently advised before he got his phone and asked for the uber pickup. They could figure out a destination later on but it wouldn't be so far given the size of the town. "So now its booked where are we going?" he asked. The destination was as important as the journey they'd just taken. Graysen Maddox

He had never felt a pain like this as he spoke. "I am sorry to have ruined the night like this. I know that most of the time things like this usually go a little bit more smooth and that is all that I wanted for us. Maybe we can try out again one day when I am not feeling so sick if you'd like." He took a second. "Probably be a best if we headed to the residential area, don't need anyone seeing me like this." He was not embarrassed but he was not in his best condition. David Lightfeather

David was making sure that Graysen had all his things with him before the Uber arrived. While the bar just might handle lost property losing a wallet and keys was a bad idea. "No need to apologise Graysen. And we can try this some other time once you're back home and safe" he advised. "Best drink some water before we go" he added getting a beer glass half filled with water and giving it to his friend. It felt a bit odd to David to have a male friend from outside work but he liked that feeling. Also his experience of island taxi's was that they tended to not take a lot of time to arrive. Quite an improvement on getting a taxi on a pub night in Birmingham. Graysen Maddox

His mind had flashed back to a time when he had joined the baseball team and gotten a little too drunk and no one had managed or minded to help him as this man had. It was a different feeling as he could feel the after effects very slowly starting to wear off. "Good idea," he said as he grabbed a cup. He drunk it slowly. "Good looking out thanks."

David checked his phone as Graysen spoke then was drinking the water. He'd finish his pint before the taxi came but still felt fine. "We've got five minutes according to the text message I got back. That's faster than the UK service" he replied and then drained his pint in a few deep drinks. "By then you might feel a little better" he added hearing the thanks Graysen gave him. Then added a smile in return before he spoke to the barmaid. It sounded like he was giving her reassurance that Graysen would be fine and was putting her mind at rest. Graysen Maddox

He well once upon a time he knew that he did know how to have fun and that was something that he thought he still knew now as he could feel himself starting to feel more like himself as the feel of the air helped. "You know on this island sometimes I think that I hear spooky noises and then I tell myself that it has to be me and no one else and I do truly believe that in the end. You ever experienced anything paranormal?" He knew that was a strange question to ask but his mind wondered a lot when he was drunk. "I do hope that I do feel better," he added. David Lightfeather

David chuckled slightly and replied to what Graysen had posed. "I may have caused a few rumours about strange creatures back home while being transformed and roaming around the countryside but never personally experienced anything paranormal. However I have heard about ghosts since I came here. You might have actually experienced one and there's proof out there" he advised adding "you will feel better later on. Water and night air work in time". He knew that was the case given he'd gotten enough people home in the past and even struggling home himself. Ghosts and the paranormal was something he'd always considered as a possibility since you prove a case one way or another. Just like in sensible science. Graysen Maddox

As the next morning came Graysen remembered very little about how he got home but he did remember the fun he had before hand. He hoped to see David again only this time a little less drunk at least on Graysen's part. ooc - i'd love to do another sports themed activity between the two of them ,let me know. end David LightfeatherAdmin
