I admit I'm not the sharpest tool in the box. I can't say I was surprised when I got to Ed's house at 8 when he had said 9, and I'm not in a good mood when I'm awakened early. Finding that my buddy wasn't home worsened my mood.
"I bet that guy is a hello kitty fan."
"Fuck off, Bree," I mumbled, "this stopped being fun when I was in high school."
"No, no, you're supposed to say 'true' or 'lie', Vic," my friend's sister whined.
She had gotten so annoying. Ever since I had left my hometown in the middle of a flyover state, coming back meant seeing family and friends...and being pestered by her.
She didn't shut up, however, "if you say 'lie', you have to prove me wrong, like when we chased that lady to see if she had more than seven cats..."
She spoke to me as if I were an idiot, as if I didn't remember the rules... nor that incident.
That one time had been fun. Years ago, when I was about to graduate high school and Bree was still in junior high, we had had the cops called on us because the woman had been sure we wanted to kidnap her (WTF, I know).
"I bet that woman," Bree was looking out the window, leaning too much against me and jumping around, royally pissing me off, so I interrupted her.
"Bree, would you shut the fuck up? Pretty please?"
On the last question I had even mimicked her tone.
"Oh, right! It's your turn!"
I swear my eyeballs were about to roll so high they'd do a complete flip inside my skull. Then I remembered my experience with girls and Bree had always been far more grossed out that the conservative girls I had had the misfortune to fuck.
"Fucking fine. I bet my cum tastes like fucking tapioca pudding. Now, fuck off."
I was already smiling, prepared for the, "eeew,gross!" ... that ... wasn't happening?
