So im at a meeting for one of my school clubs and the president(Lola) brings her friend(Stacey) to the meeting.

I give Lola a hug since it was her birthday and I greet Stacey with a handshake, "No hugs since we just met" which she thought was funny. Stacey and I end up getting partnered up while doing club duties and we have a nice interaction and with some very casual/playful flirting i was able to confirm her interest level was rising for me. Our club decided we would all drink that night to celebrate Lola's bday and as im leaving the meeting i say "see yall later" and Stacey says "not me, I won't be there". I was already entering my car as she said this so I didn't respond but we locked eyes and I gave her a kind of "we'll see"-smirk.

So night time comes and I pull up to our hangout spot. Stacey pulls up with Lola as her passenger. The night begins. Music, drinking, dancing. Stacey and I are interacting for most of the time. Putting limes in each other's mouths as we pour each other a shot, im playfully teasing her, she's got her arm around me leaning in and whispering stuff in my ear, touch barrier is well beyond broken. However, throughout the night Lola has been taking Stacey aside where they will talk for a minute or 2 away from the group then Stacey would come back to me. At the time I figured they were just gossiping like lady friends do or maybe they were joking about me.

At one point, Stacey asks me where I'm going after this, "back home since I don't stay on campus" she then starts saying I'm too drunk to drive home and I know she's probing for me to ask to stay with her. I try to play it cool at first "nahh I can make it, ik how to handle myself" and she starts pleading with me not to do it, so I say "you must have somewhere for me to stay?" She says "I don't have my own dorm but I sleep on Lola's couch". I tell her that i can't share the couch with her and she offers that we sleep in her car together instead, I agree to it. She says "But I have to be up at 6am for soccer practice"

Lola then comes and grabs her again and they leave the group and talk, but this time they go straight for the car and drive away. Now i feel like an idiot because I never got Stacey's number, I guess I felt like the plan was so set in stone that getting the number didn't cross my mind as a priority.

HERES WHERE I FUCKED UP(besides not getting the number): It's the next day and I'm thinking whenever I see Lola I'll try and ask her to bring Stacey around again or probe her to see if Stacey said anything about me. Lola doesn't come to class but we have a class later that day so I text Lola asking if she is coming to class later, she says no because our teacher didn't tell her to(she's the professor's grad assistant). I tell her to come anyway because we have to settle some business. She said too late because she had gotten in the bed so I just sent the "🧍🏾‍♂️" emoji then she asks what do we need to settle, my exact words: "yall left too soon, I wasn't done talking to Stacey 🙃". Lola never responds and that was yesterday.

So what do yall think happened? Lola protecting her drunk friend? Stacey actually wasn't feeling me as much as I thought? Lola was jealous? I honestly have no clue but I do know I fucked up by texting Lola about it. Should've just waited until I saw one of them irl.

What should I do next time I see either Lola or Stacey?
