Now there's the drop on the coaster.

Have fun, my loves ;)



Patrick's not entirely sure what to do.

He had told Frank that morning that he planned to take the car. After a nights rest he felt as if he was being dramatic.

But Frank must've forgot.

Because he took the car when Patrick was showering. Patrick's showers take longer than usual. He doesn't proper shower, no, he uses a specialized soap solution. It takes him about 30-45 minutes to properly clean and wash himself. Frank had more than enough time to take the car.

And now Patrick has no mode of transportation.

Sure...he could ask Pete. Pete would do it in a heartbeat but that's a little too awkward. While his drama has faded, his true feelings haven't.

He still loves Pete.

Maybe this is a sign that he shouldn't go. Besides, he can't be around Pete when he's with Frank. The temptation with drive him mad. Not to mention how difficult it is for him to hide anything from Pete. That's the downside to knowing your ex, they know what you're thinking when you're thinking it.

He's now sitting on his couch, 30 minutes from rehearsal time.

He needs to call in.

Instead of clicking Pete right away, he tries Andy.

"Hi, This is Andy. I'm sorry I'm not at the phone right now, but leave a message and I'll return it as soon as I can. Have a wonderful day."

Voicemail.

Joe is always by his phone. No problem.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Joe, It's-"

"Hello?"

"Joe? It's-"

"I can't hear you, Hello?"

"Joe! It's me-"

"Haha, I'm kidding. This is my voicemail, leave a message you gullible fuck."

When the hell did he change it?

And why the fuck did Patrick fall for it?

Goddamnit Joe.

The only person left to call is Pete.

He wonders if he could just wait for a call back.

25 minutes until rehearsal.

He can't be a dick, he needs to call them.

With a deep breath and a long sigh, he presses the call button for Pete.

Ring

"Please don't pick up." Patrick mumbles.

Ring

"Please..."

Ri-

"Hello?" Pete answers.

"Fuck" Patrick screams internally.

"Hey...I can't make it to rehearsals."

"You alright?" Pete asks.

"Yeah. Frank took the car." Patrick says, extremely happy he has an excuse.

"I'll drive you."

Patrick bites his tongue to avoid groaning in annoyance. "It's okay. Seriously."
