Grudges - Joshler

14

It goes a little something like this:

Brendon texts Tyler how his parents own a cabin up north and that they could use the woods around it as their camping space so if anything happens (i.e rain) they could just move into the house. Tyler responds saying having a backup plan was a good idea. Brendon ignores him and his sucking up.

Josh asks his mom if he can use her van in addition to his Chevy for said camping trip to drive around his friends and she agrees, beyond happy that Josh was hanging out with his friends outside of school grounds. She tells him to come pick it up and have Brendon drive it back to campus.

Josh and Brendon make a list of everyone coming:

-Pete
-Patrick
-Ashley
-Ryan
-Jenna
-Debby
-Alex
-Jack
-Gerard
-Frank
-Tyler

Josh doesn't mention the fact Rami is also meant to be on that list. Brendon doesn't ask or think of it.

The two go shopping for food and other amenities with the promise of not buying stupid shit; they leave with marshmallows, chocolate and graham crackers for s'mores, nachos (with salsa and cheese dip), a water gun they saw on display (most likely for kids), balloons (because why not), walkie talkies (a pack of 4), one black sharpie (stop complaining Josh or I'll draw a dick on your face when you're sleeping), advil (see? responsible) and some glowsticks (again, why not?).

Also, condoms. For good measure.

Alcohol wise, Brendon uses his fake ID and gets 8 cases of sixers, muttering to himself how everyone better pay him back for this shit while Josh just laughs profusely, adding a small 'maybe we should just get a keg' and earning himself the finger.

Right now, they're both baked, sitting in the parking lot of a dunkin donuts and trying to eat some bagels. Naturally, they would have stopped somewhere better, but like, when the munchies hit, they hit hard and Brendon had stopped at the first food place he saw.

Josh moans as he takes the first bite of his whole wheat bagel, the healthy motherfucker, while Brendon stares at his own plain Jane one. He glances up at Josh right as he goes to swallow and holds back a giggle when he chokes.

"Eating a dry bagel with nothing to drink is not a good idea, fam." Brendon announces when Josh whines and glares at his bagel.

He'd been keeping an eye on him, making sure he didn't sneak away and start doing shit behind his back. To his surprise, Josh stayed by his side the entire time they were out.

"You don't say?" Josh pouts and throws his bagel back in his bag. "I don't want it. Get me a muffin."

"What makes you think a muffin will be better?" Brendon kicks his feet up on the dashboard, getting comfortable.

They both sit in silence, pouting and hungry. Josh snaps his fingers, a bright grin forming on his face as he turns his body toward Brendon.

"I got it, go get us coffees."

"Bro, we passed a Starbucks on the way here, why didn't we just stop there?"

"Because you missed the exit."

"Oh, so now this is my fault?"

"Well, if we went to Starbucks I wouldn't have almost died by bagel."

"Fuck you and your bagel."

"Fine." Josh crosses his arms and sits back in his seat.

"Fine!" Brendon huffs, mimicking his position.

More silence. Then,

"I would suck a dick for some Taco Bell."

"Brendon, you're literally the one driving." Josh points out, physically gesturing at the steering wheel and Brendon to prove his point.
