As the final bell rang the boys all ran out of the classroom. "Good luck." Indigo chuckled as they ran. Mitch turned back calling out a quick, "Thanks!" Before he continued running.
"Baby Blue." Michelle grinned when the girl got to their car. "Hey Michelle." Indigo said getting in the back.
"Ready to go, Blue?" Kev asked his sister. "Yeah, don't hit anybody." Indigo joked as the parking lot and streets filled with scared freshman boys.
Kev giggled before pulling out of the parking lot. Luckily for her with Kev being her brother she didn't have to participate in hazing.
"Hi kids, how was school?" Mrs. Pickford asked when the three walked in. "Boring." Indigo answered, Kev and Michelle nodded along.
"We're leaving in an hour." Mr. Pickford said walking into the room. "There better be no parties when we're gone tonight." He said sternly. "I get it dad." Kev rolled his eyes.
Their father huffed. "I don't know if I believe that, Kevin." Before Kev could start an argument Indigo jumped in.
"He can't throw a party because he has to bring me to a baseball game tonight." Kev furrowed his brows. "He does?" Indigo nodded, trying to get Kev to go along. "Of course I do."
The man sighed. "All right, well, we'll talk before we leave." The three teens headed up to Kev's room.
"Nice cover up, Blue." He chuckled. "Like you'd go to a baseball game." She rolled her eyes. "Actually, I am going to a baseball game tonight." The couples eyes went wide.
"Why?" Michelle asked as the sat in Kev's dome chair. "Cause I told some boys in my class the I would." Indigo said, sitting on Kev's bed.
"Boys?" Michelle teased. "Oh shut up, its Jodi's brother actually." The both nodded but Michelle sent her a wink.
Kev shrugged. "You do you man." He said as his lit a joint. "I gotta stay here though, get the kegs." She nodded taking the joint from Michelle as she rolled more.
"I can walk, it's fine." She said before handing it back to Kev. "You sure, I can always have one of the guys drive you?"
She laid down on the bed. "Sure, but only if they want to.
A few minutes later Pink and Slater walked into the room. Pink sat beside Indigo, letting her use his lap as a head rest and Slater sat on the floor against the bed.
"Sample of the goods." Kev passed the freshly rolled joint to Slater who took a hit. "Fifteen bucks." He tossed him a bag.
Slater looked to the bed. "Can you spot me a ten?" Pink shook his head as he took a hit. "I'll pay you like Tuesday and shit." He said making Michelle laugh.
"Sorry Slater man, you've never paid me back." Indigo said blowing out smoke. He sighed but nodded. "Fair point Sapphire."
She chuckled as a knock sounded on the door. "Who is it?" Kev asked, assuming it was another friend of his. "Kevin, I think you to come out here." Their dad said sternly.
The Pickford kids both jumped up trying to cover the smell. "There's someone out here who says he needs to talk to you."
"Open the door man." Indigo nudged her brother as she followed him to the door. "Slater lose it." Michelle whispered.
Finally he stuffed it under his shirt as Kev opened the door. "Mom, Dad, what's up?" He said, trying to play it cool.
"Did you guys order some kegs of beer?" He asked, looking between his kids. "No." They both answered. "There's a fella in a beer truck that says you did."
The pair shared a look before going to the window. "Shit." They went back to their parents.
"That guys says we ordered a keg of beer?" Kev asked. "Yeah." Indigo nervously played with her vest. "He said it was to be delivered to the Pickford residence."
"This address?" Indigo asked. Their dad nodded. "This address." Kev fake laughed. "That's kinda funny. Why don't we go check it out?"
He nodded. "I think you guys better." The siblings left the room in a panic.
"What the fuck?" Indigo whisper shouted at the man. The man looked from his clipboard. "Man, aren't you a bit early?" Kev asked.
"Uh... yeah, about an hour and a half. I wanted to get here early, see if anyone was here. I got this little action happenin', if you know what I mean." Indigo rolled her eyes at his words.
Kev nodded back to their parents. "You got the wrong house." The man looked between the pair and their parents.
"Yeah. Inconvenience for you." The guy muttered. "Wrong Pickford's all together." He said louder. "Hey, these things happen. Don't worry about it." Kev said, but Indigo just glared at the man.
Kev and Indigo started towards the door, hoping their parents would by it. "Were you two going to have a party tonight?" Their dad asked.
"I don't know what that was all about." Kev lied. "Start unpacking, we're not going anywhere." Both kids looked back at him in shock and annoyance, groaning.
Kev slammed the door behind him. "Fuck!" He yelled as Indigo punched the wall.
"No more party." Kev said as they went back into his room. "Really?" Michelle asked. "Yeah, asshole came an hour early." Indigo told them.
"I gotta head over to the fields." Pink told them. "Can you bring me?" Indigo asked. "Sure, meet me in the car."
Michelle walked over and hugged the girl. "Sorry your guys's party didn't work out." She said. "It's whatever man." Kev said lighting a joint. But they knew how excited he had been.
"See you at the later?" Indigo said as she walked to her room to change. "Yeah, later Blue."
