I might as well visit a few friends of my own.
This was Philip's thought process as he walked quickly down the mostly deserted street. After his parents made an unexpected appearance, he'd been very on edge. Once he found out Madelyn was with some of her friends, Philip decided he might as well do the same thing.
Shivering in the chilled winter air, Philip squinted at the smudged writing on a faded letter. He glanced up at the apartment number before reaching to knock, but finding the door wide open.
He cautiously stepped in, looking around. "Adam, you home?" He heard a thumping noise from upstairs. "It's Philip Hamilton, from college."

"I'll be back," he muttered, scrambling to get dressed.
"Adam," she whined, sitting up.
"Don't worry, it's just a friend from college. I won't take long." Adam smiled at Madelyn and hurried downstairs. "Hamilton! It's been too long!"
Philip grinned, shaking his hand. "No kidding! What, almost three years?"
"More like forever. How've you been? Any girls?"
His smile faltered slightly. "A few, but nothing new. Same old ankle showing, low cut dress girls." Philip shook his head. "Nothing interesting."
"I know how you feel. I have one of those here right now, Macey Vaughn or something."
"Madelyn McVaughn?"
Adam grinned. "Yep, I think that's it."
He ran upstairs, growing more furious with every step. "Madi!"
*CUE 'WE KNOW'*
DUN NUN DUN NUN DUN.
Thanks so much for reading and commenting! Also, keep asking the characters questions, because the Q & A is open until each character gets enough (at least 5) questions!
Hope you enjoy!
