"So, what were you two up to?" One of Colin's buddies said
"I needed something that fell behind my dresser and I couldn't lift it. So I made him lift and move it" I said
"Oh.." The kid said
You know, i'm really good at quick white lies. On the fly. Tons of practice with cruella. We all sat in the living room and the guys left as time went on. Now it's just Colin, John and I.
"Would you look at that sky" Colin said
"I think it's gonna be cancelled tonight" John said
"You know. I'm pretty sure you're sober enough to go home" I said
"Wow, you don't want me here" He asked
"No" I replied, The two boys looked at me and I laughed "I'm kidding"
They both shook their heads and I cuddled up with the blanket. Again, our AC works very well so it's chilly in here.
"So uh, El. Were you actually wearing pants last night?" John asked
"No, I was wearing shorts" I replied
"Uh huh" John replied
"She's looking for a man. And that's all that was out there last night" Colin laughed
"Hey, i've been good on my own" I said looking at him
"Guess you were teasing everyone then" John said
"How!" I said
"Booty shorts" He shrugged
"Hey, that's the first time i've gone with out covering the massive soon to be scar on my leg" I said
"Oh. I didn't even notice" John said
"Cause it was dark. And it's hot outside. Figured no one would notice. I haven't worn shorts at all" I said
"I just realized that. You don't even wear shorts around the house" Colin said
"I got an ugly ass scar that I don't want to show" I said
"Can I see it?" John said
"Nope" I replied
"I haven't even seen her surgery scar" Colin said
"Hideeee" I laughed
They both laughed and we heard the front door shut. Then foot steps. The three of us looked at each other then over by the hallway where Kate showed up.
"Well damn, i'm just getting stared at" She said
"Hi babes" I smiled
"Hey. The rodeo is cancelled tonight" She said
"Damn" The boys said
"It's also starting to rain" She said
"You want to help me clean up outside?" Colin said looking at John
"Sure" John replied
The two boys stood up and walked out the back door, then Kate sat next to me.
"So, how was his party last night" Kate asked
"Good. I made them all pancakes this morning and John and I talked. Him and Cassie broke up" I said
"Really? When did that happen?" Kate asked
"The day after the rodeo. Apparently she got a ride home and was all pissed. But she likes me so that's about it" I said
"So, are you going to date him now" She smirked
