"Hey Jacob i noticed you have the frame for your old 2002 Suzuki in the back of the truck." Lexie says as she gets into my dodge ram pick up.

"Ya it was he first bike my father ever bought me. but last year as you know it went for a shit. and it because a fuck of a job to fix up, and i didn't have the time. So i got my brother Ryan to strip it down and throw the frame in the back. i'm guessing i could get about two hundred bucks for it." I reply getting into the truck and starting it up.

"Where is Ryan anyway?" She asks as i drive up the gravel driveway that leads up to the front of the house.

"He went out to a buddys house for some drinks, he'll be back."

Lexie plugs her phone into my AUX cord and plays music for the drive out to the country. As we drive the sun starts to go down slowly. I grab my sunglasses out of the center console and put them on to shade my eyes from the country sun.


Lexie and i leave the scrap yard at 8:30, and get back to my house just before 9:40, we'd have gotten back sooner but i had to stop at the LCBO and pick up some Vex red and blue for myself. As we get back i let Lex out at the front of the house, telling her to go down to my room, so that she doesn't wake my brother. I park the truck at the back of the house and walk up to the back door, opening it to see Lexie sitting on the couch with my brother in the basement.

"Hey, so turns out your brother isnt sleeping." Lexie says smiling and laughing a bit.

"what are you still doing up Ryan, normally you sleep early." I question.

"Ya well i wanted to wait till you were home, because i wanted to toke with you to celebrate the summer."

I smirk and laugh.

"Ok there big man, lets go then."

Ryan, Lexie and I sit in my room till 12 toking and talking. and just laughing about the school year we've had. 

"Well my people. I'm heading for bed." I announce.

"Ok there big brother. want me to drive your friend here home?" Ryan offers.

i think for a second. And then reply.

"Yes Ryan, that'd be great. Thanks buddy."

When Ryan and Lexie leave, i change in a pair of pajama pants and take my shirt off hanging it back up. I grab my laundry basket and head upstairs quickly to put my clothes into the machine so they're ready for tomorrow.

When i get back down i lay in bed and crack one of the Vex opening using my bottle opener. As i sit there sipping away, i put on the tv and turn to netflix to watch some supernatural. I grab my pack of smokes off my nightstand and light one up, pulling my ash tray towards me a little more. i get up and shut my light off, laying back down with my alcohol and smoke in hand. As the end of the episode is coming i hear my phone go off on my nightstand. I put my drink down beside me and unlocked my phone to see a message from Dorian.

Dorian: "Hey can i come over, my mom kicked me out again."

I laugh to myself quietly and quickly respond back.

Jacob: "Yes buddy for sure, i'll leave the back unlocked, just come in through there, you can take unflod the couch and sleep there if you'd like, your bong is still out there and same with your weed, so just come in. I'm heading off to sleep."

I didn't get a reply back so i just left it at that and went back to watching my show, and drinking my Vex. A couple minutes later i find myself drifting off into a deep sleep.
