Chapter 11
-Lesson # 14, always remember to...
Jack stopped in his tracks, interrupting Katie.
-Katie, I think I've got it now.
-Are you sure?
-Yah.
-Ok.
She pulled a piece of paper out of her pocket and ripped it in two.
-Here's half the list.
-When did you make a list?
-In the car.
-Oh.
-Pick out a cart, get the stuff and meet me in aisle 10 in 15 minutes.
-Ok.
10 minutes later they rendezvoused in aisle 10.
Katie grinned at Jack.
-That was fast.
-Beginners luck.
He started to put the items in his cart into hers. Suddenly, he stopped and pointed to the beer sitting in the rack.
-Katie, what's that?
-Beer.
-I know that! What's it doing in the cart?!?
-You're out.
Jack glared at Katie.
-Kiddo, you're only 17.
-You were only 14 when you started drinking.
-Yes, but that was diff...how did you know that?!?
-Do you want to know what else I know about your teenage years?
He gulped and sighed.
-No, I guess not. Underage drinking was the least of my felonies and m misdemeanors as a teenager. I guess I can live with you drinking, but don't follow completely in your father's footsteps huh?
-I won't.
-Good. Let's go kiddo, I need a drink.
Katie laughed.
-Not before supper.
Jack groaned.
-Don't worry; I'll do all the cooking.
-Ok.
They checked out and left, arm in arm, chatting about everything but the weather.

Author's Note: Don't think that I condone underage drinking or anything, the only reason I put that in here is because Katie is her father's daughter if you know what I mean. I hope you enjoyed my latest installment!!!
