This is split into two parts.

Part 1: Lloyd

"...And then she just left, just like that,"

Lloyd Garmadon was in Laughy's Bar, blabbering away to Dareth, his 'therapist'. Why?

Because Lloyd was drunk. Very drunk.

"It was like when I dropped my PB&J sandwich in kindergarten," he slurred, leaning his head on the counter, "Man, I want a PB&J sandwich now!"

"Uh..." Picking up his phone, Dareth rang for help.

"Whaddya need?"

"Hey, Ronin. You remember Lloyd, right?"

"...Yeah, why?"

"He's wasted. Can you come pick him up?"

"...Gah! Fine!"

Minutes later, a maroon car was outside and a man with neck-length brown hair entered the bar. He spotted the drunk teen and the concerned man and headed towards them.

"Thanks, Dareth, I'll take him home,"

He slung Lloyd's arm around his neck and helped him to the car.

"Rooooniiiinnn!" Lloyd giggled. Rolling his eyes, Ronin scrolled through his contacts.

"Jay."

"Ronin."

"I need your help,"

"What's up?"

"Nya's not gonna be home for a while, can you take Lloyd? He's very drunk, and probably shouldn't be alone at the minute,"

"Uhh...I kinda have an essay to finish..."

"Jay..."

"Alright, fine! Come to Room 223!"

"Thanks, Jay!"

"Roooooonnniiiiiinnnnnn," Ronin looked over to the wasted Lloyd, who was fidgeting with the car door handle. Quickly, he switched the child-lock on, to prevent him from tumbling out.

At long last, he arrived at the campus dorm building. Grabbing Lloyd, he headed inside, and up some flight of stairs, until he arrived at Room 223. Sighing, he knocked on the door.

"Just a second!" was heard from the other side of the door.

"Jay, I don't have all night!"

"Hold on!" the door opened, revealing Jay. He raised an eyebrow when he saw his blonde friend.

"How drunk?" he asked

"Very. Wouldn't stop blabbering. Can't be worse than your girlfriend though,"

"Hey!" Jay protested.

"Dude! She calls me 'Ro-ro' when she's drunk, and disco dances in the middle of the street!"

Jay sighed, "I know, I love her!"

"Are you taking him or what?"

Jay snapped back into reality, "Oh yep, sure!" Grabbing Lloyd, he pulled him into his room, "I'll call Nya!" he called over his shoulder before slamming the door shut.

Dragging his friend to Cole's bed, Jay sat him down, before going back to his essay.

"Jaaaaaayyyy!"

"Yes, Lloyd?" Jay was trying so hard not to throw him out of the room.

"You're so fuuuuunnnnyyyy!"

"Thanks?"

"Callie broke up with meeeeeeee...,"

"Really?"

"Yup. She left me, dumped me, just like how I dumped my PB&J sandwich. Do you have any PB&J sandwiches..."

Lloyd babbled on as Jay picked up his phone.

"Nya?"

"Hey, Sparky!"

"So...I have your roommate here...and he's drunk. How far are you from home?"

"Shoot, I'll be there as soon as possible. Kai just pulled up in the car park."

"Thanks babe, is there anyway to...shut him up? I have an essay..."

"Yeah, he has a pressure point on the back of his neck."

"Got it! Talk to you later!"

"Love ya Sparky!"

"Love you too, Kitten,"

He cut the call and looked over at Lloyd, "Now, Lloyd, goodnight!"

"But I want my PB&J! You're...so....mean..." Lloyd's voice started trailing off as his eyelids grew heavy. Jay had pressed on the back of his neck, and the nifty trick worked! Lloyd was out cold!

Ah, peace and quiet! Jay thought, getting back to work. Several minutes later, there was a knock on his door. He figured it was Cole, and that he'd forgotten his keys...again.

But it was Nya.

She smiled, "Hey, Sparky!"

"Hey!" He bent down to peck her lips and pulled her into his dorm, "He's just over there..."

"Okay, I got it from here. You get that essay finished,"

"Gotcha. Night, Kitten,"

"Goodnight, Jay-Jay!"

Nya dragged Lloyd out of the room, and down the corridor. It was a lot harder than she thought. Her eyes scanned the area, before spotting the lift. Grinning, she dragged Lloyd along, his feet scraping along the carpet. Her smile faded when she saw the Out of Order sign placed on the door.

"Stairs it is!"

As she was about to ascend, a figure came down the stairs. It was Morro!

"Uh, Nya? Mind telling me why you're dragging my cousin's body across the hallway as if he's dead?"

"Oh! Uh...he got drunk, and Ronin dropped him off at Jay's room and I'm just picking him up."

Morro raised an eyebrow, "Need any help?"

"Oh hell yes!"

Morro hoisted Lloyd up and threw him over his shoulder, and made his way up the stairs, Nya following behind.

"What room are you in again?" He asked.

"Room 318,"

"Got it!" They stopped outside Room 318, and Nya unlocked the door, "I got it from here, thanks, Morro!"

"Sure!" He dumped his unconscious cousin on the floor and made his way back downstairs. Nya grabbed her roommates arms and dragged him into the room, shutting the door behind him. She used all her strength and hurled him onto his bed. From there she proceeded to take his shoes and socks off and chuck them beside the door.

She couldn't be bothered to drag his ass to the bathroom and brush his teeth, so she tucked the covers over him. "You are so dead when you wake up!" she mumbled, as she got into her pyjamas. After brushing her own teeth, she switched off the lamp and got in her own bed, and slipped into her world of dreams.

✮❀✮❀✮❀✮❀✮❀✮❀✮❀✮❀

"What the..." Lloyd clutched his head in pain as he slowly sat up. Why did his head hurt so much?

All of yesterday's events came rushing back, and Lloyd groaned as he checked his phone:

Saturday, 10:30.

He shuffled over to the other side of the dorm room, where Nya was typing away at her laptop. Lloyd then proceeded to face-plant onto her bed, "I'm never drinking again," he mumbled.

"Morning to you too," Nya chuckled, before spinning around to face her roommate. Lloyd sat up, rubbing his eyes. "Everything huuuurts!"

Rolling her eyes, Nya gestured to the coffee machine, "There's an espresso and a Paracetamol waiting for you. Get it while it's hot!"

"Oh, you are the best!" Lloyd rushed over to the coffee machine. He swallowed the pill and downed it with some espresso, before going back to Nya. He wrapped an arm around her and buried his chin in the crook of her neck, "Thank youuu!" He went and sat on her bed, drinking the espresso. Nya switched off her laptop and joined him on the bed, "You gonna tell me why you decided to go out drinking without asking anyone for a ride home?"

Lloyd sighed, "Callie dumped me,"

"Seriously? Why?"

"Dunno,"

"Then she is not good enough for you,"

"That's what you said about Harumi...and Kesley...and Derek...and Martin..."

"Yeah. They all either dumped you or cheated on you,"

"Am I just...not dateable?"

Nya hugged her hungover roommate, "Of course you're dateable! You just have very bad taste!"

Lloyd scoffed, "Wow! You are so supportive!"

"I know, right!" Nya grinned, "Now, take a shower! You smell like a week-old gym clothes!"

"Hey!"

"I'm just saying!"

Ditching the cup on Nya's bedside table, Lloyd made his way to the bathroom.

"So...how did I manage to end up here in one piece?" he asked.

"Oh...it's a long story..."

Part 2: Nya

It's fine...just let loose...

At least, that's what Nya keeps telling herself. Everyone thinks she's being a tad bit uptight, and needs to relax a little. College was hard, and you need a break every now and then.

Currently she was at Laughy's bar, downing a shot of Jack Daniels, laughing along at random things, and doing weird little dances in her seat. Yup, she's wasted.

Dareth took Nya's glass away and placed it in the sink, "Uh...Nya? I think that's enough alcohol for you today..."

She laughed, "Nonononono...I'm...fineee!"

Dareth shook his head as Nya bopped around to the music.

"I'm gonna call you a cab...no no scratch that idea. You, alone, drunk, in a cab...Kai would kill me! No, I'll...call Ronin! Aha!" Grinning, Dareth pulled out his phone, "Ronin! It's your old pal Dareth!"

"Yes, I know. What do you want this time?"

"Uh...Nya needs a lift home...she's drunk..."

"...Fine...you owe me for this,"

"Thank you! You can take my closing shift!"

"Uh, not what I had in mind..."

"Too late! Come pick her up!"

"...Sure,"

"Dareth!" Nya whined, "Where are the mojitos?!"

"Uh...sold out, kid,"

"Hmm...I'll take one of your Boba Teas with a side order of whiskey!"

"How about a nice refreshing glass of water- no wait, water consumed by an drunk person results in sickness. Okay....oh look, there's Ronin!"

Ronin came up to the counter, and Nya cheered.

"Ro-ro!" She threw her arms around Ronin's neck.

Ronin glared at Dareth, who laughed nervously, "Uh...drink on the house?"

"I'm holding you to that," He helped Nya up and stumbled out of the bar. The minute they were on the streets, Nya let go and ran ahead, arms flailing about in every direction.

"This is so fun!" she shouted, as she did the YMCA. "Dance with me, Ro-ro!"

"Uh...maybe at a later date, kid," he steered her towards his car and placed her in the passenger seat, activating the Child Lock before anything could happen. He drove along the empty roads, which were illuminated by the street lights, whilst Nya stared out of the window.

She gasped and stabbed her finger at the window, "Ro-ro! It's a rainbow!"

Ronin chuckled, "No kid, just your imagination,"

No joke, Ronin saw Nya like a daughter. She was adorably hilarious to be around when she was drunk. She was energetic, and giggly and acted like a three-year-old.

As he drove, he slipped out Nya's phone from her bag and rung Kai.

Yo, this is Kai. Sorry, I can't get to the phone right now because I'm pretending to be a sofa cushion, but leave a message and maybe I'll get back to you when pigs fly.

Sighing, he rung Jay.

"Hey, kitten!"

"Jay it's me,"

"Ronin? Where's Nya?"

"Drunk. Are you in your dorm?"

"No, I'm at my parents. I won't be back until Sunday..."

"Got it. I'll check on Lloyd."

"M'kay,"

He cut the call and rung Nya's roommate.

"GHOSTBUSTERS, WHADDAYA WANT?"

"It's me, Ronin."

"Oh hi! Where's Nya?"

"She's with me. She's drunk. You in your dorm?"

"Uh...yeah, why?"

"Cool, I'm dropping her off in approximately...5 minutes."

"Okay-wait WHAT?!"

"You heard. Now bye, I'm driving!"

"B-But you called me first-"

He ended the call and made a sharp turn into the dorm block. After parking, he got out of the car, and took Nya. He made his way into the building, Nya sprinting ahead, trying to touch the ceiling. Taking the elevator proved to be a mistake, as Nya nearly pressed all the buttons, including the emergency stop button. And trust me when I say this, being trapped in an elevator with a drunk teen was the last thing he needed.

Finally, he arrived on the third floor. He dragged Nya over to Room 318 and knocked on the door. Lloyd answered it; he was in his pyjamas but he was still awake. "Uh...how drunk is she?"

"Woah! Why are there two doors?!"

"...I see. I'll take her, thanks," He grabbed Nya and pulled her into the room, shutting the door behind him.

Okay...how are we gonna do this? He thought to himself, staring at Nya, who was currently doing the running man.

"Okay, I'm just gonna take your shoes off-"

"PERVERT!" she screeched, pointing at Lloyd.

"Wha-NO! I am helping you here! I am clearly the...non-pervert...person...is that even a word?!"

"Hmph!" She folded her arms and looked away, as Lloyd crept forward and took her shoes off. He sneaked off and returned with a glass filled with water. Setting it down on the table, he rushed to the bathroom and opened the cabinet, searching through cosmetics, until he found the sleeping pills. He slipped it into the drink, mixed it around a bit and bought it back to his drunk roommate.

"Navee!"

"Lllooooyyydiieee!" Nya giggled. She way laying on the floor like a starfish, arms outstretched in midair.

"Could you hold my eyes till things stop spinning?"

Lloyd chuckled, setting the glass down, "Let's sit you up," He helped her sit up and handed her the glass, "Just drink the whole of that,"

The blonde watched as Nya gulped down the water. She handed the glass back to Lloyd and blinked around.

"Did...you turn off the...light..." her voice got heavy and trailed off as she fell back onto the floor. Lloyd picked her up and placed her on her bed, pulling the sheets over her small form. He switched off the light, "Sweet dreams,"

✮❀✮❀✮❀✮❀✮❀✮❀✮❀✮❀

Nya groaned in pain as she woke up the next day, her head aching with the aftereffect of alcohol.

She looked around her dorm, which was brightly lit by the natural light coming in from the window.

The door opened and Lloyd walked in, clutching a small box, "Morning sleepyhead!" he grinned, as he placed the box down on Nya's nightstand.

"How bad was I?" she asked, rubbing her eyes.

"Uh...I had to use a sleeping pill to shut you up...and you shouted out that I was a pervert..."

"Shoot...sorry..."

"Nah, it's fine. Probably will get some weird looks from people during the next few days, but weirder things have happened. I got you some painkillers and an espresso, to wake you up a bit more...plus Kai made some cinnamon french toast. He gave me some to give to you, which I will eat along with my share if you don't get up in 10...9...8...7..."

Rolling her eyes and grinning, Nya swung her legs off the side of the bed. Grabbing a fresh pair of clothes, she went into the bathroom. Lloyd unpacked the boxes, setting the toast out on a plate. Grabbing two mugs, he evenly distributed the espresso between them, knowing Nya can never finish it without feeling the urge to throw up. He set the cinnamon french toast out on two plates and took a painkiller pill from the box.

Nya emerged from the bathroom, dressed in a white shirt, black skinny ripped jeans, vans and an oversized blue hoodie. Her eyes fell upon the food Lloyd set out, and he handed her the painkiller.

"Thanks," she mumbled, swallowing it. She took a gulp of the espresso, and scrunched her nose at the bitterness.

As the two ate and drank, Lloyd spoke up, "So...mind telling me why you decided to break the buddy drink system and go out drinking on your own?"

"Everyone says I'm too...uptight. That I need to let loose every once in a while. I thought, if I did this, I would...you know, stop stressing over the smaller issues."

"Nya, you being uptight is what keeps everyone in check. Yes, it's good to let loose every now and then, but please make sure you have someone with you. You're lucky Dareth was on duty to watch over you,"

"Got it...do you think I'm uptight? I know it's a stupid thing to fuss over and be upset about but..."

Lloyd wrapped an arm around his best friend, "You are definitely not uptight. People only say that because they don't know the real you. If they met the real you, they'd know that you are funny, bubbly, wild, reckless and charming, just the way you are!"

Smiling, Nya took the last of Lloyd's french toast and popped it in her mouth before Lloyd could protest, "Thanks,"

"No problem. So, wanna know what else you got up to whilst in a drunken state?"

"Oh gods..." Nya's face flushed bright red as Lloyd recounted everything she'd done, in extreme detail.
