We Are Us

CHAPTER 10: Football

Football Field

"Whaddup DJ!?", Tatsuya and Clay say in unison, "Not much guys, just ready to get my motherfucking game on!!", Clay laughs then speaks, "Well, who's all here?", "Me, you guys, Chuck, Ross, Chelsea, and Blackburn.", DJ replies, "Who else is coming?", Clay asks another question, "So far, ughhh.. Emily said she's coming, I heard Nicole may be coming, well hell, you texted me that like ten minutes ago, Will and Beth, of course, and Roger's coming too.", before Clay can ask anymore questions, Tatsuya screams, "Mr. Maaaan!", "Shut up Tat, what about Thor and Danny? Amber?", Clay says, obviously irritated, "Amber's gotta work, Zaxby's is really kicking her ass, D Boy is at his girl's house, and Thor is getting hammered. Get it?", there was a short pause then everyone laughed. I thought Tatsuya was gonna pass out, once everyone is done being hysterical, we walk into the gates after paying. "So where's everybody sitting?", Clay asks, "Look Clay, I love you bro, but you can't ask a question every two seconds.", DJ laughs and gently slaps Clay on the chest, Clay chuckles, "But for real, that's my last question for a while I promise.", "NorthEast corner, where we always are, but Blackburn and Chelsea are probably off with another one of Roger's dip cans.", he says as he looks at me, signing for the inside joke and I laugh a little. "Come meet everybody man!" Tatsuya says as he sprints past me. I keep a trot with DJ and Clay, I'm not about to run. Once we make it up there we see Chelsea laughing really hard at Tatsuya, our Japanese/Irish friend. "I can't believe that!", she got out before howling into another laugh, "What happened?", Clay says with a chuckle, but before she could respond, DJ spoke up, "You liar.", then laughed a few seconds later. "He was tryna run up the steps and tripped and his face almost landed in Ross's crotch!", she says, dying of laughter and everybody joins her. Once everyone settles down, Chelsea introduces me to somebody. "Drake, this is Emily.", she points at a slim, short hipsterish girl with long blonde hair, sipping a caramel frappe, probably from McDonalds. "Hi.", is all I could get out of her before she continued sipping. "I see you made it.", DJ says, as she was under the list of "is coming" rather than "already here". "Yup." Emily says, and back to sipping she goes, then she sees Clay. "Hey Bubba!", she says, a lot squeakier than when she spoke to DJ and I. "Hey Sissy.", Clay responds almost instantly, "Are you siblings?", I ask, "Unbiologically.", Emily states. I sit down in between Ross and Chuck, the game isn't started yet, this should be a good game, if DJ's honest.
