I'd KILL for you

drunk.

I went downstairs to see my mom passed out on the couch. When did she get home? She looked a mess. She was obviously drunk; I picked up the cans of beer from her and glasses that reeked of alcohol and put them in the sink. "Jeez mom what happened last night" I cleaned up wasting as much time as I could. I heard a car pull into the driveway. I looked out the window. It was Claire here to pick me up for school. I sighed and grabbed my bag and walked out to meet her. Claire was too perky in the morning. I have not even had coffee yet, but she was smiling and looked like she had done a million things before noon. Honestly, honestly is just the happiest person I ever met. Seeing her standing there with a coffee for me just makes me smile. I took the coffee. "Thanks Claire," I said. "Anytime Gray, now get in or we're going to be late," I got in the car, and she started driving towards Burke High School.
