"Hey! No fair! You cheated!"

"Fuck off, Eimear, I did not!"

"You did so! That's bullshit, Billy!"

"The kids right, Billy Boy. Get on the sidelines, you're out."

Sam laughs as she observes her friends arguing over the video game they have been dedicating themselves to for the past hour and a half. Skye sits beside her, joining in with her laughter as she opens her third can of Monster of the night.

"Jeez, slow down with that shit, Skye. May not be alcohol, but I don't want you going into cardiac arrest before you're 20.", Sam says cautiously.

"Its grand. Shit tastes good, feels good, but keeps me up all night. And then I wonder why I'm always tired."

"Exactly. You don't want to be in a mood tomorrow. Save that can for later and get a water or a pink lemonade or something."

Skye rolls her eyes playfully. "Alright, mother." She stands up and puts the red can into the fridge, returning to the couch with a glass bottle of pink lemonade, making Sam smile in approval.

"Bullshit! I won that round!"

"No, you didn't, Ca! You were in the lead, then I got ahead of you! Fair is fair!"

"N n naw! False information right here!"

Skye and Sam look at each other and roll their eyes at their friends. Sam takes the key of her car out of her pocket, showing it to Skye with a smirk. The younger of the two returns it, and the two stand up.

"Alright, Dumb, Dumber, Dumberer and Dumbest, we're gonna go get away from you crazies for a while, please don't burn down our house, bye!" Sam announces, stretching out the 'bye' as they walk out the door, leaving the others in shock.

Skye laughs as she closes the door behind her and adjusts her hoodie. "Where to?", she asks her sister as they sit into the car.

Sam purses her lips in thought, before releasing them and saying, "How does Limerick city sound?"

Skye smiles, connecting her phone to the phones speakers through the aux lead. "Ghetto, but I'm in."

The two share a smile as Sam starts the engine and Skye turns up the volume of the music she picked, the girls driving out of the gate and into the town.
