I'm in Vanessa's mini van, Paige and I are at the back, Cassie and Vanessa in the front arguing over who's tell my mum about what happened,

"Don't worry, Vanessa! Please, let me tell her! It would be much simpler," says Cassie.

"Yes, you've mentioned that already, but It sound more professional coming from an adult. A parent I mean," argues Vanessa.

"Please, Vanessa. Let me handle this. Thank's for driving us home," says Cassie finishing off the arguement, and hopping out of the van, which reached our house. Paige whispers,

"Goodbye"

and then I hop out of the car. Once we're inside Cassie snaps,

"What the hell?! Forget the curfew, what the hell were you holding when we arrived. An empty bottle of vodka! Who knows what else you had before that?! Poor Vanessa! Waking up to find her daughter and friend missing! Your grounded for 2 weeks! I don't want any excuses or but's, your going to bed now and brush your teeth 3 times! I don't want to smell any alcohol when I come into your room." I march up to my room glad she's making me sleep, and I don't really care that I'm grounded. I change into my football jersey and trackpants and brush my teeth 3 times in a row, wipe off my makeup, then jump into bed. Around 10 minutes later, Vanessa stands at the doorway and says,

"It tastes horrible doesn't it. Vodka. Don't worry, I won't tell mum, but you have got be on your best behavior now."

I nod and before she walks away I mutter,

"It does.....taste horrible. Like rat pee."

We both chuckle and then I know that everything's going to be alright, It always is. 

7 HOURS LATER

Cassie marches into my rooma at 8am with a bullhorn against her lips saying,

"Rise and shine! You've got a whole day of work and chores! Fun, Fun, Fun!" 

I swear the whole neighbourhood is probably awake now. Cassie puts down the bullhorn and continues,

"Here is the list of chores! The band has a meeting with a client who might be interested in hiring us for their teen's birthday party! Now get up!"

"No, I'm tired"I grumble.

"I'm sure you are,especially after last night! Now should I get the Ice bucket?" threatens Cassie.

Shit! What did happen last night? I was hanging with Maddie, then I saw Paige with some random dude, then I drank half a bottle of vodka, kissed Bryan, and finished off the bottle of Vodka.Shit! I kissed my best friend's boyfriend! Whatever, I'll have to deal with that later, and avoid the Ice bucket. I jump out of bed and Cassie walks out of the room. I read over the list of chores,

1. Mop Kitchen floor

2. Do laundry

3. Take out trash

4. Scrub my toilet and bathroom floor

5. Sort through expired items in cupboard.

Ugh! I hate being grounded. I brush my teeth, brush my hair, and slip on a pair of shorts and t-shirt, then go to the kitchen. 

"Can I at least eat?" I ask in hunger watching Cassie shove spoonfuls of Coco Pop's in her mouth. 

"Sure! I even made you a special breakfast today" chirps Cassie handing me a plate full of diced carrots and cucumbers. Ugh! I grab the plate, sit down next to her and start eating.
