Wait, I'm Sorry: Patrick Huston

Page 13

"Baby! An alien be taking me away!" Patty said and fell onto Alex who laughed.

"I can take care of him, but can someone else come and stay for a few days?" I asked.

"I'll get some of his clothes and come over," Calvin nodded and I had Patrick sit in the car.

"If I'm taking you home with me, you have to not touch anything this entire ride, okay?"

"Okay, baby girl," Patty slurred and I drove to Team 10. Calvin came over and I gave him a room to stay in. He followed me to the room Patty was staying in and Patty was completely knocked out. Night came and we all slept. In the morning, Patty was off the gas, but I had to give him pain medication since he was hurting so bad. We sat together and were just talking about random things. "By the way, I did finish high school."

"Oh... Um, I'm sorry," I said.

"Why?"

"Well, yeah, you were mean to be, but I was mean back. So, sorry."

"It's fine. Can you replace my gum tissues."

"Gross," I whined and he smiled.

"I'm kidding. Come here," he held my wrist and pulled me in, kissing me. "I love you."

"I love you, too," I kissed his cheek and got up.

"Wait, where are you going?"

"I'm gonna go to McDonalds or something."

"Can I come with you?"

"Sure." I told Calvin that we'd be back and he went to play ping pong with Jake.

"Did I do anything dumb?"

"You'll have to watch Alex's vlog and everything he recorded," I smiled.

"Did they let me keep my teeth?" Patty asked.

"Mh-Hm. You tried to eat them so I had to take them from you." We got to McDonalds and Patty could only have a milkshake. I paid for both of our drinks and we drank in the parking lot.

"Can we go to 7-ELEVEN?"

(A/N: Did you know the N in 7-ELEVEN is a lowercase n?)

"Sure?" I drove him and we went in. Patty quickly grabbed something and set it on the counter.

"ID?" The cashier asked and Patty showed him. He had me look away and then pulled me to leave.

"What did you get?" I asked and Patty put a vape in his mouth. I rolled my eyes and he smiled at my reaction. "Not in my car." He nodded and put it in his pocket. We got back to Team 10 and Patty went to vape on the balcony. I didn't support vaping, but it was his choice.

"Hi!" Patty walked into my room clearly high.

"What?" I asked.

"I took out my gum tissues."

"Patrick," I groaned. "Come here." I replaced them for him and passed him onto Calvin. I got a break until night and Patty knocked on my door as I was lying down.

"Can I sleep with you yet?" Patty asked.

"Give it another day, Patty."

"Why?"

"Because I don't want be bleeding all over my sheets."

"Cord!" He whined. "Kiss?" I kissed him and he smiled.

I let him sleep with me the next night and the bleeding had stopped.

"Can we watch a movie before we sleep?" Patty asked.

"What do you wanna watch?" I sat up. We watched Ace Ventura: Pet Detective and slept. We both woke when Mercedes decided to stomp over our faces.

"Stupid ass fucking puff ball," Patty snapped and Mercedes whined.

"Patty!" I said and lifted Mercedes. "This is your child."

"I want a child. Like, a human thing."

"No."

"Why?"

"Because I'm 18, Patrick," I set Mercedes on him and he sat up.

"So?" Patty asked and I gave him a look. He smiled and kissed me. "Can we go to Hype? Calvin and I came up with an idea for a YouTube video."

"Yeah. Are you gonna take a shower first?"

"Right." He took a shower in his room and I took one in mine. I came out with shorts and a bra and Patty was looking through all my makeup stuff. His eyes traveled to me and I ignored it.

"What are you looking for?"

"Do you have a hair tie?"

"Yeah. Here," I gave him a ring of hair ties. He took a black one and I looked through my closet for a hoodie.

"Take one of my extra ones." He threw one to me and shoved the used ones in my hamper. The three of us went to the Hype House and we all sat in the living room. Patrick and Calvin came down with a can of something. "We waited two weeks for this to come in. This is surströmming."

"Oh, my God!" Mia said.

"It's a fish," Calvin stated and filmed it. Patrick sat at the coffee table and opened it with a can opener. It popped and Alex smiled, excited.

"I'm gonna throw up. I know for sure," Thomas said.

"Oh!" Patrick smelled it and stood immediately walked a few feet away. The smell hit us and I immediately felt sick. I knew Kouvr did too and we both stood, running to the window. We puked out heads off and I had tears in my eyes. I held my breath walking back over and Kouvr kept throwing up. Thomas ran onto the balcony and Mia got febreeze but it was empty. I felt sick again and we all ran onto the balcony. Calvin filmed my puking again and then went to film the others. Kouvr joined me in puking and we were both crying. Patty and Alex ran over to us and I leaned against the wall, panting. "Babe, you okay?" Patty asked me.

"Honey..." Alex helped Kouvr sit next to me.

"Get it out of the house," I told Patty.

"Wait, I don't want you crying."

"I'm fucking fine." I got up and went inside, grabbing the can. We all ran through the house and everyone stared at us. I threw it in the trash and immediately washed my hands. The whole house smelled of it and Kouvr was still throwing up. Just watching her made me feel sick. We all stood on the balcony and Thomas looked ready to puke as well.
