Maybe If You'd Behave

Getting away with a lie

Chapter 35

The same day, 3:30 pm

At the bar

Claire's POV

Zoe: But like, won't you be in trouble?

Claire: This isn't the first time I've snuck out. I'll be in trouble for a little while, and then my brothers will just forget about it.

I took her to the bar, with our fake IDs, because we both had nothing better to do. And everybody else was busy, so nobody noticed that I left. They probably still don't know. I definitely have plenty of time to have fun, and get back home, without anybody noticing that I ever left.

Zoe: You're really not worried?

Claire: I probably should be, but I'm not.

Zoe: Hey look. She says while pointing behind me.

I turn around and see one of the oldest men in the building. What the fuck am I supposed to be looking at? All I see is an elderly man. Is there something special about this elderly man?

Claire: What am I supposed to be looking at?

Zoe: Him.

Claire: Dude, he's like, 60. Why am I looking at him?

Zoe: He's cute.

Claire: He's older than your Dad.

Zoe: So?

Claire: You can't be interested in a man that's old enough to be your grandfather.

Zoe: Who's gonna stop me?

Claire: Probably his wife. I say while pointing at the man's wedding ring.

Zoe rolls her eyes and I take her to the other side of the bar, where there aren't any elderly men.

Zoe: He was cute, though.

Claire: You know you're 16, right? What would he be doing with a 16 year old?

Zoe: Living his best life.

Claire: We're gonna find you a boyfriend, or a girlfriend. One that's your age.

Zoe: Hey, your brother.

Claire: Ok, now you're just being weird.

Zoe: No. Look. Your brother. She says while pointing behind me.

I turn around, already knowing what I'm gonna see. Now I'm looking at a very pissed off Sam, and I'm wondering where Dean is, or if he's even here. I can only hope that Dean's at home, with Jay and Krissy. Maybe he sent Sam, because he was too mad to deal with me, himself.
