A book of randomness

Eric's got a problem part 1 & part 2

Look at my luck

I was sitting on my bed reading "the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy" when
the Walky-Talky started making static noises. I picked it up and peters voice was on the other end.

"Hey Eric," he said, he sounded kinda worried.

"Yeah Peter," I responded, closing my book.

"Griff and Wade got drunk, I need help," he said, I then heard the yelling in the background.

"Ok I'll be there in 5 minutes," I replied beforeI walked downstairs hoping and praying my mom wouldn't notice

"Eric Angelo Hemmings, where are you going," my mother asked from the couch.

"To Wade's house, Griff and Peter are already there," I said hoping she wouldn't see my

"Young man you know your grounded,"

"You said yesterday that my grounding was over,"

"I said no such thing, now go back to your room this instant,"

"Yes mom," I said as I walked up the stairs trying to figure out what to do now.

~~~(Part 2 from here on out)~~~

I sat on my bed wondering what to do. Then I remembered that my dad hadn't installed the window lock alarms in any of the upstairs rooms yet. So with that thought in mind I shoved my Pocket Journal in my pocket and opened my window. The night air was a harsh comparison to the warmth of my bedroom. I jumped into the bushes out front before breaking into a sprint.

I ran two blocks until I was in front of Wade's house. his Parents were out of town to visit relatives and his little brother Jude was at Peter's house.

I knocked loudly on the front door until a very worried Peter answered the door and said jokingly, "it's been 12 minutes Eric."

"Yeah no shit Pete."

That made Peter let out what sounded like a mix between nervous laughter and his regular snort-y but melodious laughter.

"So that is the current situation," I asked walking inside.

"Well Griff tried to ride a bike into the swimming pool and Wade has tried about three times to jump of the roof to and I quote, 'prove how Badass I am Petey.'"

I snickered, "Yeah that sounds like Wade."

"Hey Petey," I heard Wade holler from outside.

"Oh Fuck What is he doing now," Peter said under his breath, "Coming Wade," He said grabbing my arm and pulling me outside with him.

"Pete wai-" but I was cut off by Peter muttering;

"Holy Shit."

Wade was currently jumping from the rooftop, which was 3 stories up mind you. Then as he hit the pool a loud smack was heard just before Peter said;

"Wade that the Hell," Before jumping into the pool after him, fully dressed in A blue sweater, dark blue jeans and black converse.

That's when I noticed Griffin, we where so caught up with Wade that we didn't notice that Griff had passed out on the lawn next to a tree. I laughed at how stupid he looked with his hair messy and tangled, his glasses where crooked cross his face and he had a large bruise on his arm. Probably from passing out and falling to the ground.

Peter on the other hand had Wades arm looped across this shoulders as the boy laughed his ass of and Peter made fun of his stupidity.

"Ya good Pete," I asked as I walked towards the pool.

"Yeah," he answered between laughs.

I smiled at the duo as they walked inside both dripping wet and laughing all the way. I smiled once more before going to get Griffin.

When I reached his curled up from I ruffled his Wavy black hair. Which would have earned me a playful punch in the arm had he been awake. I lugged him up into my arms and carried him bridal style. which was easier then it looked except for the door entering process which consists of me almost tripping about five times give or take.

When I finally got inside I laid Griffin down on the couch and smiled at him, was it normal for someone to smile this much? Griffin started to stir and mumbled out, "Hey Angel."

"Hi Griff, you should go back to sleep ok," I said softly.

"Okay, night-night Angel-boy, I love you," he said his voice a slurred whisper, before closing his eyes a curling towards me using my leg as a pillow.

Then Wade and Peter walked downstairs in dry clothes. Wade waring black sweatpants and his classic Red sweatshirt while Peter was waring what looked to be a pair of Wades old grey sweatpants and a baggy white shirt that was also Wades.

"Hi guys," I whispered pointing at Griffins sleeping from.

"So Griff's asleep, God you barely see that ever happening," Peter said in a joking tone.

"No kidding."
