The summer after I graduated was great -- at least the parts I can remember. Most of my friends stuck around after school got out, so there was just one party after another, at least until August, when we all went our separate ways to college. My folks were pretty great about letting me come and go as I pleased, too. My parents divorced when I was young, and I stayed with my dad. He married Kate, my stepmother, when I was in middle school, and they had my stepsister, Tracy, shortly after. Kate was a good addition to our testosterone-laden home. She could be almost impossibly cool, like an older sister sometimes, but she still had lines, and God forbid you cross one. She came into our lives when I was young enough that, by the time I was in my late teens, I just called her "mom," which was easy to get used to, considering my biological mother was never around.
I was 18 and technically an "adult," sure, but Mom and Dad could easily have been stricter than they were since I was still living under their roof. They never gave me flack for staying out late or coming home on occasion with beer on my breath. They also made sure that I had time for work and friends by never giving me too many responsibilities around the house, especially when it came to taking care of Tracy, who was ten years my junior. Every time they wanted to go out for an evening, they got a sitter -- usually some college girl on break -- so that I could take off. Since they were so cool about things, I tried to help out as much as I could, mowing the lawn, doing the dishes, or once in a while, coming home early to relieve the babysitter if they wanted to stay out later.
That was exactly what happened the night everything changed.
My dad, Wade, was a construction supervisor at a new development downtown. He had worked his way up through the ranks, starting as a steelworker and getting promoted year-after-year. The other guys liked his boisterous personality, and the bosses were impressed with his tireless strength and work ethic, as well as his ability to get anyone to toe the line. (Being 6'5" and 290 pounds didn't hurt in that department.) They'd finally made him top dog of a major project -- a 50-story high rise on the river -- and the new building was complete. To celebrate, he had been invited to a gala dinner with my stepmom.
His job had afforded them a nice home in the suburbs, with a pool out back and a lot of space, including one of those sunken living rooms, complete with a giant sofa and a flatscreen TV. You'd never know they were well-off by looking at my dad, though. His idea of dressing up was wearing the black Carhartt jacket instead of the ratty brown one. So, the night of the gala, it was a shock to see him in a charcoal grey suit and black tie.
"Hey, Dad, you lose a bet?" I joked as he tugged at the starchy collar.
"Hardy-fucking-har," he shot back. "I hate this crap, but the owners said I had to wear it. I can't wait to burn this damn thing out back tomorrow."
"Mom about ready?" I asked.
"Right here," I heard from the stairwell as she came down. Whereas Dad looked like a magician in a straitjacket act, my stepmom looked like a starlet. She had on a deep blue halter dress with a slit up the side and the highest heels I could imagine. She was stunning. She walked up to my dad and wrapped her arms around his neck. They were just about to kiss when Tracy bounded into the room.
"Uck! Get a room!" she spat.
"Maybe we will. Then you'll have a sitter all night," Mom responded with a smile. Tracy growled and slunk into the living room.
"Where are you going tonight?" Mom asked me.
"Paul's having a few of us over to play pool, so I'll probably be over there. His dad just got a new table, and he wants to show it off."
"Sounds like fun," Dad said. "Can I come?"
"Oh no, you don't," Mom said quickly. "You promised to be on your best behavior tonight and to introduce me to all your work friends."
"But, honey," he started in a mock-pleading tone.
"Break the promise, and you'll have to wear that suit tomorrow, too." My dad gave a fake shudder, and we all laughed.
"Well, you guys have fun. I'm heading out," I said, grabbing my keys.
"Okay, honey, be safe," Mom said with a quick hug.
"Have fun," Dad added, clapping me on the back. I tossed my keys in the air, caught them, and headed out the door.

The pool party had gone quickly from shooting balls to shooting the shit, and we were all laughing loudly when I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket with a text from my stepmom.
How's your night going?
Fine
, I texted back.
Just hanging out.
Are you sober?
