Notes:

a few disclaimers:

1) TW for underage drinking - it is taken lightly in this story, but if that in and of itself is triggering, please do not read for your own sake.

2) TW for emetophobia - mention of vomit towards the end

3) title is from john mayer’s “st patrick’s day” (stream darren criss’s version or bust)

[ description: a picture of santana and brittany in a mcdonald’s parking lot. the golden arches and lights of the building are blurred behind them, they are clearly the focus of the picture. santana is wearing a short a-line pastel green dress, and brittany is wearing green trousers with a black turtleneck. brittany is kissing santana, her hands cupped around her cheeks, one foot kicked back in the air. santana is smiling into the kiss and throwing her hands up above her head. in one of her hands is a shamrock shake. ]

 

santanalopezz: kiss me, this milkshake is irish.

 

brittanyspierce: im so lucky to have u <333
