"I'm really not happy with you." Jackie shook her head angrily at Jonny. Him and Alice still chuckling at each other from across the table at the memory of soaking Adam. "My lovely chairs."
Soon enough, Adam walked back into the room after drying off wearing Martins clothes; some oversized jeans and a stripy top. "Thanks for the cool clothes dad. I really don't look ridiculous."
"You do look terrible, Ad." Alice giggled.
"Hey." Martin objected.
Jackie was clearly losing patience with the kids and their antics on her anniversary night, she was just looking forwards to their special steak. As the family started to finally tuck into their food they were interrupted by the doorway, Alice sighed assuming it would be Jim like usual only to become slightly alarmed when Jackie shouted them all into the hallway. As they got into the hallway they noticed Jim slouched against the wall.
"Hellooo boys and girl and man."
"Is he drunk?"
"No, heavily sedated." Jim said slowly.
"Oh my god." Alice shook her head in disbelief.
"I went to take my special pills for my funny bottom but you see, they look like Wilson's sleepy pills."
"I didn't need to know he had a funny bottom." Jonny said quietly.
"We should call an ambulance."
"No ambulamalambalance." Jim shook his head.
"Okay then, let's get you home." Adam suggested.
Alice shook her head. "We can't send him home like that, he could hurt himself."
"She's right. Come through Jim." Jackie said, leading him forwards.
"What about our steaks?"
The protesting died down as they tried to move Jim into the living room only for him to be distracted by the painting of Jackie, or Margaret Thatcher as Jim thought. That was just before, he passed out on the stairs. Nobody was quite sure what to do then so instead of dwelling on it, they just gave the man a pillow and blanket and went to finish their dinner. It was not long before the tattoo was brought up again.
"Are you really unhappy or something? You must be to write I want to die young on your arm." Jackie asked Jonny seriously.
"My brother the hells angel, sorry local estate agent." Adam remarked.
Alice sighed loudly. "Just tell them, Jonny. Then they'll get why."
"Fine, I lost my job." He muttered quietly. "Staff restructuring."
"I.e. you were shit."
"Adam!" Alice scolded. "Don't be a dickhead."
"If he's lost his job he may as well die young, have you seen the economy." Martin shook his head.
