"Do you want to tell me what you're doing in this picture?" He asked
"Uhhh, photo shop?" I questioned
"Why the hell are you at a party? You said you were going to max's" he said
"I was" I replied
"Why are you drinking and partying" he said angrily, causing my anxiety slowly to creep up.
"I-
"You're 15, a kid still and you're drinking alcohol" he said
"I-
"Not only you lied, but you went to a party and was drinking" he yelled
"Sorry" I replied wanting to block out the yelling bringing back memories of Lucas
He's not Lucas, he's not Lucas
"You're only sorry you got caught" he shouted
"And Atticus is also in trouble so don't even try to protect him" he said
"Ok" I mumbled
"Due to your actions there is consequences, no hanging out with your friends for 2 month, and no tv. Only reason why you have a phone is because you will need it for school so don't screw up or that will be gone too." He said
"Ok" I said. I learned with Lucas that if you fight back you only get hurt more and I didn't need that.
"Is that all?" I asked
"No, you can't hang out with max anymore. He's not a good influence" he said
"What" I exclaimed. He was my best friend and is my best friend
"He's my best friend, I've known him since I was a little kid" I said
"People change and so did he" he replied
"You can't stop me, mom wouldn't do this" I said
"And sometimes your mom is wrong" he replied
"You aren't stopping me from being friends with max" I said
"Yes I am, now don't push it or I will take the phone and skateboarding away" he replied
"That's not fair, you're being unreasonable" I said
"And I'm the guardian here, I make the rules" he replied
"That's so stupid, god you're so annoying" I exclaimed frustratedly walking out. I went upstairs, grabbing my phone and texting Atticus
Tyler knows, be careful around your parents-skylar
He replied back quickly
Too late-Atticus
I texted him back
Sorry, idk how he got the picture. How bad is your punishment-Skylar
He replied back
Not bad, I'm grounded for a week-Atticus
Lucky, I'm grounded for 2 months, no tv and apparently banned from seeing max-Skylar
Damn, Tyler is going all out on this-Atticus
I know, so if I'm dead you know why-skylar
Good luck-Atticus
Thanks-skylar
I put my phone down and didn't want to do homework but there isn't much to do. I had practice tomorrow so I wasn't going to do much besides relax.
