Consequences ~Justin Foley

Obsessed With You

"We're home!"
I announced walking in to see Lainie disappointed and Matt not giving a shit. Clay walked beside me stumbling a little.

"Sorry we're late we got a little distracted." Clay said and I scoffed at him. Yeah we.
"You said you guys would be here a half an hour ago where were you?" Lainie asked and me and Clay just stopped to look at each other.

"Uh we were with a friend." I made up some bullshit and Lainie just furrowed her brow at us.
"Yeah she was in trouble and I, I didn't beleive her and I checked it out and it was true."
Clay continued on the horrible lie and I feel my face involuntarily cringe.

I just placed my hand on my face regretting even standing next to him. I stuck out my thumb towards Clay keeping my eyes on Matt mouthing he's drunk to him.

"Are you drunk?" Lainie immediately asked realising what I told Matt and Clay nodded. "Yeah, I think so." Clay managed to breath.

"Wow this is escalating fast." Matt mumbled and I always like his little comments.

"You've never done anything like this before. Drinking on a school night? Riding your bike while drunk!" Lainie yelled at him and I looked down trying not to laugh or draw any attention to myself.

"I'm really sorry about that." Clay said and I could tell there was pure regret in his eyes. "I had Fallon to make sure I was okay though."

So much for not attracting attention Clay.
"How much did you drink son?" Matt asked calmly.

"Just one beer, it was a big beer though and it was disgusting." Clay said being completley honest.
"And you didn't stop him?" Lainie asked me and I held my hands up innocently.

"I tried!" I tried making myself as innocent as possible because I was! "No no she really did. Don't blame her for anything." Clay added along.

"Alright enough you are grounded for the next two weeks you will go straight to school and come back straight home afterwards no hanging out with friends-" oh she went full mom on Clay.

"I'm his only friend." I muttered and Clay couldn't help but laugh a little to my comment.

"Okay before we get to the sentencing phase, let's all just sit down and talk about it." Matt compromised and Clay immediately shook his head.

"No I don't, actually. I'm not that hungry. I'm just gonna go to my room." Clay heavy breathing and the next thing we all I heard was gurgles and throw up.

"I'm sorry." Clay whispered and all our eyes were widened whilst we stared at Clay. "Okay um..." I paused awkwardly.

"Clay, how about you go upstairs by the toilet, and I help you mum clean up your mess." I said breaking the silence completely and he just nodded running of upstairs.

"It's okay, I got it." Lainie said and Matt helped her. "Just Go and help Clay." Lainie told me and I nodded but before I went I stopped to look at her for a second.

"Your really good parents by the way. It's not any of your faults. There's just been a shit ton of things going on." I admitted to them and they both looked at me silently and I grabbed some bread and a bottle of water before running of.

The bathroom door was closed but the lights were on. I lightly knocked on the door waiting for an answer.

"Come in." I heard Clay say and you could tell he felt shit. "How the fuck did you used to hold in your alcohol."

"Sweetheart I'm British. I've been drinking since young." I told him and he crouched his head over the toilet ready to throw up but it was a false alarm.
