Growing Pains

House Party (Part Two)

Justin's POV:

I was sitting on the couch watching an episode of Spongebob. (I have no idea who put it on) Next to me was another high as a kite teenager who was laughing at every minuscule joke made in the show. Jay was here but I really don't know when he left or where he left to. Everyone else was partying and to be honest with you I was out of it. The television screen was being blocked by a hand waving in front of me.

"Huh?" I questioned.

"Yo! Your brother only said you had one brownie are you seriously that high already?" Zach said.

"Nahhh." I started to laugh which didn't sell the fact that I was trying to say I wasn't high. Zach sat down next to me. "Want one? I have some more." I asked.

"What? Edibles? Sure." I got up a bit too fast which made me stumble a bit but I made my way to the kitchen which is where we left the brownies last. Zach followed closely behind. I pushed past the sea of people flooding our home and looked on the countertops. You know, it probably would've been smart not to just leave edibles laying around at a party if I didn't want them to disappear.

"They are totally gone."

"No worries, I think we can get some more from Pete."

"You mean little Petey? Oh shit I totally forgot about him, that's so smart." I said to Zach. Petey was actually the opposite of little, he was massive. I don't really know why that name was given to him but everyone refers to him as that, especially when they are trying to buy stuff off of him. "Hey!" I saw my brother making out with some girl in the corner of the kitchen. "Jay!" I shoved past people to get to my older brother, "do you know where little Petey is?" Jay completely ignored me still ramming his tongue down this poor girls throat, I mean why in hell would she kiss my disgusting older brother.... willingly. "Dude!" I say while punching his shoulder. Jay and the girl stopped kissing and Jay gave me a look that could kill.

"I'm going to pretend that you're not talking to me dorkface, walk off or I will hurt you."

"I need to know where little Petey is."

"I don't know, why the hell would I know?"

"Because he's friends with you?"

"No he isn't, he's friends with Ty... he's the one that made sure he was here. Go bother him. Now leave me alone or I'll seriously kill you." I walked away to make sure not to push my luck. I knew Ty was downstairs so that's where I went. Zach followed me and as we arrived in the room, we saw Ty and a bunch of other upperclassmen playing a drinking game. I even spotted Pete, mission accomplished.

"Yo sup Justin, sup Zach." Pete says.

"Hey man, got any edibles?" I asked.

"Yeah, what do you want?"

"Edibles?" Zach questions.

"Yeah like what kind dork?" Pete says.

"Oh uh.... What kinds you have?" I asked. To be honest I didn't really know there were kinds.

"Look." Pete showed us to one of the tables we had downstairs and there was an array of edibles. He just had it propped up?

"Oh the cereal bar one looks good." Zach pointed out. Zach went to grab one but Pete smacked his hand. "Ow! Hey what the?"

"You have to pay."

"But it's here, people aren't just taking it?" I asked

"No, look at me, you think they'd just take it?" To be fair, he was correct on that. Pete was scary big. It's like he body built.
