Wild Night

I've been told many things and I've forgotten most of them. For example. Don't over drink at a party you never know where you might wake up. I threw the empty bottle that was in my hand. Sitting up was a challenge. Everything looks different from the floor. Huh. I should crawl around one day just to see what its like. My wobbly legs struggled to keep me up. I don't have any underwear. Interesting. I wonder when I lost those? I shrugged. Who's house am I even at? How did I get here? Where's Jenn? Grabbing keys as I left the house I made my way into the early morning. It was already hot. I pushed the alarm button on the keys. Lights flashed and I made my way to the car. I got in and started her up. Some cigs on the dash caught my attention. Marbs. Best smokes known to mankind. Fuck I smell like a dirty whore covered in whisky. Could be worse. Oopps just love tapped the car behind me. The drive was silent. I reached a familiar house and let myself in. Tossing the keys on the coffee table I passed out on the couch.

Brian: really? Wake up you drunk.

I rolled over. He shook me.

Melly: ugh! What?

Brian: what are you doing here?

Melly: sleepin' obviously.

Brian: dude you can't just show up here.

Melly: I do it all the time. Even when you're not home.

Brian: what?

Melly: nothing.

Brian: do my Aunt and Uncle know your here?

Melly: I don't know.

Brian: have you been home at all?

Melly: yes.

Brian: within the past few days?

Melly: umm maybe.

Brian: wake up.

Melly: fine fine.

I sat up and looked at my cousin. He sighed.

Brian: you're a mess.

I smiled satisfyed.

Brian: what are you going todo when I leave to go on tour?

Melly: still come over.

He helped me up.

Brian: you're going to get me disowned one of these days.

Melly: maybe then we can live in peace.

Brian: haha not likely.

Mich: oh geeze again. She can't keep coming here Brian.

Melly: shut up bitch.

I flipped her off as we walked past her.

Melly: I don't like that cunt.

Brian: I know. You tell me that atleast once a day.

Melly: clearly you're not understanding. She's such a bitch.

Brian: she's actually not.

Melly: you know you used to be a lot cooler before that cock sucking bitch came along.

Brian: I'm still cool.

Melly: sure sure.

Brian: Melly.

Melly: huh.

Brian: you can't keep coming here like this.

Melly: why not?

Brian: because.

Melly: because Michelle said so? Last time I checked family came before dick and pussy. How many a time did I take you in?

He sighed.

Melly: don't think your some big shot cause your band is finally going somewhere and I'm just eighteen. You're still Brian. I've been around for all that shit she hasn't.

Brian: I know but she's my girlfriend.

I rolled my eyes.

Melly: whatever.

Brian: how did you get here?

Melly: I drove.

Brian: drove what exactly?

Melly: a car.

He rolled his eyes. Michelle came barging into the room.

Mich: Melly who's car is that?

Melly: just so happens me and Brian were getting to that.

Mich: who's is it?

Melly: I don't know.

She scoffed and made a face.

Brian: you stole someones car?

Melly: no I plan on taking it back.

Brian: when?

Melly: after I bathed and got some underwear.

He closed his eyes and shook his head a bit.

Mich: you are disgusting.

Melly: some times a girl just loses her head...or panties.

I saw a small smile from Brian.

Mich: you need to take that car back and get out of my house now.

I stood up and got in her face.

Melly: last time I checked bitch my cousin paid for this house. Not you. So this isn't your fuckin' house just cause you suck his dick.

Brian: Melly.

I looked at him if I had no respect I'd a beat the shit out of her then. Her eyes were wide.

Melly: I'll see you later Bri.

I walked out. Not before keying her car though. I drove back to the house I came from.

Jimmy: ah we must have traded.

Melly: excuse me?

He held up my underwear.

Jimmy: these for those.

He grinned.

Melly: atleast I know they were in trusting hands.

He nodded.

Melly: Jimmy I thought you didn't smoke anymore.

Jimmy: yeah I don't they're just there.

I nodded.

Melly: can I get those back?

He handed them to me.

Jimmy: they didn't fit all that well anyway.

I slipped them on.

Jenn: you are just one filthy girl.

Melly: my only competition is myself. I stopped by your boyfriends house.

She finished off a bottle of vodka and smashed it on the ground.

Jenn: and that's what I have to say to that.

Melly: right on. To Jimmy's?

Jimmy: to Jimmy's.

We loaded into the car.

Melly: Jimmy.

Jimmy: yes?

Melly: when are you guys exactly going on tour.

Jimmy: two days. You guys coming?

I sat up from my slumped position. The dude is genious without even knowing.

Melly: I hadn't put any thought into that idea love. But now that you mention it. Jenn how would you like to see the country?

Jenn: doesn't sound half bad. We could finally see Vegas.

Melly: hell yes we can. I think we shall join you.

Jimmy: tight.

Melly: Jimmy do you have any shampoo or soap here?

Jimmy: I dunno maybe.

I smelled myself. I'd survive a little while longer.

Melly: where's your phone?

Jimmy: Zack took it.

Jenn: why?

Jimmy: not sure.

Melly: well then I guess I'm headed over there. Bye Jenn. Adios Jimmy.

I gave them both kisses on the forehead. My shoes scrapped a bit on the pavement. Thank goodness for sunglasses. Other peoples sunglasses. Aviators. Clearly these belong to the man of my affection.

Guy: hey there sweet-

Melly: fuck off.

I said non-chantly.

Guy: bitch.

I kept on my way. I knocked on the front door.

Mrs.B: Melly how nice to see you!

Melly: hola Mrs. Baker. Is Zacky here?

Mrs.B: no I think he went to Jasons.

Melly: oh ok. Do you mind if I use your phone?

Mrs.B: not at all.

I smiled.

Mrs.B: how is your family.

Melly: oh you know they're great.

Mrs.B: where are you staying at now?

Melly: umm...well Brians every so often. Home.

Mrs.B: that's good you know you can always stay here if you want.

Melly: thanks Mrs. Baker.

She smiled and handed me the phone. It rang a few times.

Mom: hello?

Melly: hey ma.

Mom: Melly? Where are you?

Melly: the Bakers.

Mom: oh. Are you alright?

Melly: yes. Mama I'm going with Brian.

Mom: ok where?

Melly: across the country...

Mom: on tour with him?

Melly: yeah. I'll work for him. Sell his shirts or some shit. I don't know we'll figure it out.

Mom: well why not. You're young and not in school anymore. Maybe you'll find your calling.

Melly: thanks ma. I'll be by later.

Mom: alright.

Melly: love you.

Mom: bye.

Easy as fuckin' pie.

Melly: Mrs. Baker?

Mrs.B: yes?

Melly: thanks for letting me use your phone.

Mrs.B: ofcourse dear.

I gave her a kiss and left. A honk to my right caught my attention. I looked over the rims of my sunglasses.

Melly: look what the whore caught...

He rolled his eyes and opened the door for me.

Melly: hello Matthew.

His name rolled around my tounge and I could taste how much I wanted him.

Matt: what's up Melly?

Melly: nothing much babe. Where we off to?

Matt: I was headed to Johnny's.

Melly: what for?

Matt: just to tell him how its gonna be on the road.

Melly: I forget he's new. Guess what.

Matt: what?

Melly: I'm going with you guys.

Matt: does Brian know that?

Melly: who cares.

Matt: where do you need to be?

Melly: don't matter.

Matt: alright then.

He drove and I just sat back. Enjoying his presence. My eyes closed and opened in a new place. I sat up and looked around.

Matt: morning.

Melly: hello.

I smiled.

Melly: I've got to go.

I stood up and picked out a wedgie.

Johnny: that's attractive.

Melly: I'm sorry who are you?

Johnny: I'm Johnny.

Melly: oh shit sorry sweetheart didn't recognize you with the mohawk.

Johnny: its cool.

Melly: this was fun but I'm leaving.

I kissed there cheeks.

Melly: bye babies.

I walked out and headed to my house.

Melly: I'm home!

Mom: nice to see you Melly.

I gave her a hug and kiss. She cringed a bit.

Mom: you stink.

Melly: haven't showered today and its hot. Where's dad?

Mom: kitchen.

Melly: papa?

Dad: si Melly. Estoy en la cocina. (I'm in the kitchen.)

Melly: hey papa.

I kissed his cheek.

Dad: so...how have you been?

Melly: you know.

I shrugged.

Dad: how long will you be gone?

Melly: not sure all summer maybe.

He nodded. As you can tell they aren't very strict. Has a lot to do with the fact my brother rebelled with everything they enforced on him. I'm not that horrible. I'd like to think anyway.
