WHAT NOT

CHAPTER FIVE

I slowly walk into my room trying to make as least noise as I can. I go into my bathroom and hide in the shower. Great hiding spot right? It's not like everyone who hides in showers in horror movies ALWAYS die right?

I hear laughing. What the hell? Liam is sick. He just slapped me in the face and he finds it humorous? What a jerk.

"Tuesday I'm not up for playing hide and seek today, you know?"

I start laughing from my shower, I know exactly who it is.

"Matty what the hell are you doing here? You scared me. At least knock next time."

"Sorry Tues, I'm just too fucked up to go home and I figured you ditched the beach to come smoke so I was hoping maybe just maybe i could join?"

I laugh. Oh Matty, what a fiend. I love him so much.

My face is slightly pulsing. Jeez that hurt.

"Actually I ran here because Liam slapped me in the fucking face. I told him I don't feel the same way anymore and he lost it. That's just unacceptable Matty. Why do I get no respect around here?"

I turn around and Matty is snoring on the couch. Ah, drunk teenagers passing out at 6 o'clock just to wake up and do it again at 9. That's Southport for ya.

I cover him with a blanket. I find this as a perfect opportunity to go visit my plug and get some more weed. Matty will be very thrilled when he wakes up.

Good thing my plug, Chad, doesn't live too far from me so I decided to walk. His house looks a lot like mine. I've actually tried to unlock his door with my key before when I was drunk one time thinking it was my house.

I knock on the door, Chad's little brother Paulo opens the door for me, but when it opens I'm not one bit surprised who's sitting at the kitchen table blowing lines. Liam. I go to walk right out but Chad comes.

"Hey T. You want an eighth right?"

Liam looks at me and chuckles. What a dick.

"Yeah and give me a ziplock bag this time, i think it's more efficient."

Chad laughs.

"You always know how to perk up my business Tuesday, thank you for your feedback."

I try my best to not look at Liam but I can feel his stare. What is his problem? If anyone should stare it's ME. I officially hate him and I'm avoiding him all damn summer.

Chad comes back with a fresh ziplock bag just like I asked for and hands it to me.

"$35 right?"

"Nah this ones on me T. I hope your day gets better."

Ahhh I see. Liam definitely told him what happened.

"I'll walk you out."

I take one last look at Liam and he just rolls his eyes. What a dick.

Chad shuts the door and gives me a bottled water.

"He told me what happened, I'm sorry T. I really am. Trust me I would neglect the fuck out of him, but you know he gives me mad business."

Why is Chad apologizing? Liam should be doing that.

"It's okay Chad I promise. Liam giving you business is the least of my worries right now. Thanks for the gift, Matty will be very happy."

Chad laughs.

"Where the hell is he? I saw him trying to put the moves on Kaysure, that was hilarious."

True. That was hilarious but also kind of sad. I don't think she feels the same way as him.

"He's passed out on my couch right now, I figured I'd have a surprise for him for when he wakes up."

"Well, I hope you guys have fun, let me know if anything pops off tonight."

Chad gives me hug and goes back inside. I feel bad for his little brother Paulo. He's only in eighth grade. Well, technically now I guess he's a freshman in high school. I'm finally on my way back home. Matty's still slumped on the couch. I'll give it about 30 more minutes then he'll be awake.

I decided to brew some coffee. Matty now will have two surprises when he wakes up. Nothing beats caramel iced coffee made by yours truly and, free weed from Chad.
