The Everyday

Chapter 36: Drunken Idiot

Charlotte was at Molly and David's house, because David was helping Charlotte catch up her science. She was finally back at school. Science was David's best class all through school. Plus they just got done learning the bones. 

"Charlotte are you even listening to me?" asked David. They were sitting at the kitchen table together.

"This is just so boring" whined Charlotte laying her head down on the table.

"You know that hurts. You're talking to the bone doctor here" said David.

"Sorry. Its just I don't care about the bones of humans. I rather learn about animals and their skeleton" 

"Well the same bones that we have generally animals have too" 

"So if I want to be a vet, I need to learn the bones?" 

David looked at her curiously. "I thought you wanted to be a painter or artist?"

"Ya I did, but they don't make any money"

David laughed a little "You shouldn't be worrying about money at your age"

Charlotte shrugged "Hey it might change tomorrow. I don't know" 

David laughed "Okay enough changing the subject, back to the bones"

Charlotte sighed.

They were finally done studying about 1 hour later. "Now can I have ice cream?" pleaded Charlotte.

"Yes" said David.

"Thank goodness" she said getting up and going to the kitchen. Molly was there.

"One bowl of ice cream please!" said Charlotte sitting down on the stool.

"Two!" yelled Simon from the floor were he was playing.

"Make that two!" said Charlotte putting up two fingers.

Molly laughed "Two bowls of ice cream coming right up"

"You know Simon only started to like ice cream and sweets once you started teaching him too" said David walking in the room.

Charlotte shrugged "What are cool aunts for?"

"I cream!" yelled Simon in his toddler voice.

Charlotte smiled at him "Always ice cream!"

Molly and David shook there heads.

Just as they finished eating their ice cream, Paul and Alex came in the door. 

"Hey guys" said David, "What's up?"

Paul and Alex looked at Charlotte.

"Oh" said David. He followed them out of the room to the dining room.

"We lost him" said Paul.

"What?" asked David confused.

"We were following Ian and well we lost were he went. But he was definitely drinking and probably drunk after the first bar he went too" said Alex.

"How?"

"We didn't see him leave"

"Was he driving?"

"No he was taking Uber" said Alex.

"We looked everywhere" said Paul

David sighed. Just then someone came barging in the door. That someone was Ian.

"I need to talk to you!" yelled Ian stumbling in the door. David, Paul and Alex came into the room. 

"Ian, what the hell!" said David. He was clearly very drunk.
