Chapter 9 higher than vegas

Sleepover time! It's 6:00 on Friday night. Everyone is at Todd and Neil's place well everyone except for maple ash and sal. They have to work...and ash just well maybe I should text her.
Though text messages:
"Hey"
"Oh you uh actually texted for once"
"Yeah sorry I've been a bit busy"
"Oh..."
"Hey me and a few people are going to midnight karma wanna join?"
"Uh...the hell is midnight karma?"
"Le gasp! Dude! Only the best restaurant ever! You have a mask right?"
"Uh...no? Why?"
"They won't let you in without one. Don't worry I have a few plastic ones just for this occasion!"
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah! It's fun! You'll love it! Please ash?"
"Whatever. I'll be there soon. Isn't the address you gave me to that place?"
"Yep!"
"Ok well I guess I'll see you there. Uh hey don't bring the damn plastic masks ok?"
"I though you said you didn't have one"
"Well I Lied. You forget I'm in art class"
"Wait you are?? I never see you!"
"I'm usually in the back alone"
"Oh gosh I'm sorry I'll try to find you next time!"
"Eh don't bother I work better alone"

"I'm kidding! Maybe..."
"Whatever see you there!"
Out of text messages! I'm smiling like a goofball. And I guess jumping up and down to.
"Hey dingleface you good?" Neil asks
"Huh? Oh yes why?"
"Dude there's twelve of you" Todd says.
"Ignore him....You were jumping up and down a bit" Neil says.
"Oh well I guess I'm just excited about going to midnight karma." I say
"Oh shit yeah forgot we're going there. Well it is 6:00 better get our masks on" Neil says
"I'm ready!" I say.
"Why exactly are we going to this colorless, odorless, inert monatomic gas under standard conditions, with about two-thirds the density of air eatery?" Chug says.
"Uh for fun? And to investigate the noodles!"
"Oh yeah I forgot about those. You do have to agree that the length and with of those monstrosities are not like they should be. In fact they almost look like rice"
"Maybe it is rice and they're scamming us" Neil says
"Or maybe something els! That's why we gotta go come one!!" I'm sounding a bit to eager.
"Hold on man I'm higher than Vegas...." Todd says. Neil helps him sober up a bit by drinking a lot of water. Then Everyone gets their masks on and heads down to midnight karma. A place away from home.
