Chapter 3
Charlie & Charlie"Okay Julie, how about Charlie goes next?"
"Sure!" Kane and I said at the same time, "I think he meant me, dumbass."
"I'm pretty sure he meant me, douchenoggin." Kane barked at me.
"Stop with the stupid insults. You can both tell your stories parallel to one another."
"I can tell most of the story since Charlie and I were together for most of the party. Joe, Kane and I got to the party about a half an hour before you guys. Joe was driving, and Charlie and I were playing poker in the back. There was only about 30 people when we came, and Joe left us right away to go do God knows what. Kane and I went to the pool and we jumped in before anyone else, because that meant the pool was clean still. My friend Hannah from school saw me and wanted to say hi. The two of us only talked for a few minutes, but when I turned around Kane was already gone. I came out of the pool and started looking for him. That's when I ran into Max and asked him for help. Seeing as Max was as helpful as usual, I didn't stick around. I ran around the house a few times before finding Kane by the pool, holding drinks."
"I would just like to fill in the part where I "disappear." I actually just wanted to get us some drinks, but when I saw that there were no cups left, I went to the kitchen to grab some. We must've somehow ran past each other when you were looking for me, because I was only gone for about 30 seconds. I didn't even notice you weren't in the pool because I went straight to the drinks when I got back. That's when I turned around and you were standing there panting." Kane told his part of the story while everyone else was listening carefully.
I continued: "We had the drinks and basically just spent the night in the backyard pushing drunk people into the pool.. And then all of a sudden, the fun was cut short. That loud noise that Max mentioned before, was a car. A fucking car. I mean most of you know the story of that by now, but it was terrifying when it happened. A random ass car just drove through the living room and into the backyard. Somehow nobody from the party got hurt, but the driver was pretty beaten up. It wasn't that bad though since he got out of the car on his own, Eric took him to the hospital-"
"That means Eric didn't mess with me after he drugged me.." Julie interrupted me.
"Yeah, I guess not. After that whole thing, the people who were able to go home did, and the rest were passed out all over the place. Kane and I stayed out by the pool since we couldn't leave without Joe. We just kinda spent the rest of the night talking and waiting."
