"Shouldn't we go home now?" Madison yelled in Michael's ear. They were still on 203 Austin Loop, and the party was in full swing. But something didn't feel right about all this. There were guys Madison, well… didn't really like. Guys she new was bad news. But Stephanie and Joachim were already together with them, dancing, talking, jumping, drinking, Madison had no idea. But it didn't matter; this wouldn't end that fun if she didn't get them out of there soon.
"Why?! You said you liked to party! It's only one am!"
"I know, but…"
Michael looked at her.
"Those guys… We should get away from here. They are into all kind of stuff. They are all criminals and they're into drugs and everything. Please Michael let's go."
He heard that she was serious and really wanted to get out of there, so he nodded, took her hand and led her towards the crowd – which Stephanie and Joachim were in.
"Joachim! Joachim!" Michael yelled to his brother. Joachim turned around by the sound of his name.
"What?"
"Come, we got to talk!" Madison yelled.
Joachim looked confused at them and then he took Stephanie's arm and drag her towards Michael and Madison.
"What is it, Mad?"
"Those guys, don't you recognise them? They were in the papers, people talked about them. They just got out of jail! They are into drugs and all kind of stuff."
"No, you must mix them up with some other guys. One of them, Lucas, told me he had lived in New York too. He's not from here."
"Trust me Steph, we should to get out of here. I don't like this."
Stephanie heard that Madison was serious about this, so she nodded and they went out through the door.
"So umm… What shall we do now?" Michael asked.
"Can't we just... Sit down somewhere and just, you know… hang out?"
"Sure! Do you know any good places?" Joachim asked, apparently glad they were going to spend more time together.
"Yeah, there's a place called 'Whenever you like' not far away. It is open round the clock, and it's very nice," Stephanie answered.
"Good idea, I haven't been there for ages!" Madison said happily.
"We were there like last week, Mad."
"Umm… Well at least it feels like ages…" The four of them laughed and made their way to 'Whenever you like'.
A few minutes later they opened the door to 'Whenever you like'. A short, sturdy lady looked up at them.
"Madison, Stephanie, what a great surprise!" She said, beaming to them. "And you're bringing boys I've never met before. New boyfriends?"
Madison and Stephanie looked at each other, embarrassed. Joachim and Michael went read in their faces, but didn't say anything.
"Umm… No Molly, we just met. This is Michael and Joachim, they just moved here and we're showing them some places in Miami." Madison answered.
"Oh, nice to meet you anyway. You're staying to eat?"
"Well at least something little. Can we sit down and decide?"
"Of course! You can sit over here," she said, showing them to a table.
"Thank you, Molly." Stephanie said.
"Yes, thank you," Said Madison, and then they sat down round the table. Molly left and went back into the kitchen.
"You know this woman?" Joachim asked.
"We always came here when we was younger. She used to be our babysitter and was like an extra grandmother for us both."
"Oh, well she was… Special. But seemed to be very nice," Michael said with a grin.
Madison and Stephanie laughed.
"She's very nice and cute. Has no own children, so she's very fond of us."
"Yer, ok. Should we decide what we should eat or drink?"
"Yeah, I almost forgot!" Stephanie said.
"So what do you guys think, should we eat something or just take something to drink?" Madison asked.
"I think we should eat something… Not food, but a sandwich or baguette or something like that," Joachim said.
"Yeah, me too," admitted Stephanie.
"I think we all want that, it's not like we've been eating much on the party."
"No, exactly. So what do you think we should eat?"
"I'm voting for Molly's pancakes. I promise you that you have never tasted anything like that. They are wonderful." Stephanie said.
"That sounds fine to me," Michael said, looking at Joachim and Michael.
"Yep, I agree with you guys," Joachim said.
"Then it's pancakes!" Said Madison happily. "Molly?"
"Coming!" They heard from the kitchen, and soon the little woman was standing at their table.
"Decided yet?" She asked, looking at each one of them.
"Yep!" Stephanie said. "We want a big plate of pancakes!"
"Pancakes it is! Do you want one big and four small?"
Stephanie looked at the others. "No thanks, we just need one big."
"Okay, and to drink?"
"I would like some water, please. Mineral water."
"But you're from England!"
"Well, yes I am, mrs…?"
"Oh, call me Molly. Everyone do! So you must be from England too?" Molly asked, turning to Joachim.
"Yes, I am."
She smiled sweetly at them.
"One mineral water, and for you?"
"I'll take mineral water"
"Yeah, me too, Molly."
"I take that too. Can we get one big bottle, and four glasses, please?" Madison asked.
"Of course, sweetie. Then there's one big plate pancakes, one big bottle mineral water with four glasses."
"Great! Thank you Molly!" Said Madison.
"My pleasure!" And with that she hurried back into the kitchen.
"So umm… Why are you moving back to New York, Stephanie?" Joachim asked.
"It's because of my dad's work. He has to travel a lot in his work, but now the whole company is moving back to New York - and so do we…"
"You feel ok about it?" Joachim asked, unsure if he asked to much.
"No. I'm gonna miss this. I'm gonna miss Miami. I'm gonna miss my Madison. My Mad."
"Come here honey, we need a hug." Said Madison, tears in her eyes.
The girls hugged each other, but after ten seconds, the girls still hadn't separated. Michael and Joachim had no idea what to say, so they just sat there, looking stupidly at them.
"Okay, you cute girls, here comes the food! You can keep hugging each other after food!"
She put the big plate of pancakes on the table and then left, saying to herself;
"Still so cute…"
The girls giggled, and then they all started to eat.
"So um… where from England are you?" Stephanie asked after a while.
"We're from London," Michael answered.
"Cool! I've always wanted to go there!" Said Madison.
"I've been there!" Said Stephanie. "It's a really cool city, but the traffic is kinda weird."
They all laughed.
"We think the same about Miami."
"But why did you guys move?" Madison asked.
"Same reason as Stephanie – parents and work. Our mom got the opportunity to move here, but it was all our own choice. And we're not complaining!"
"We can see that!"
"You kids having a good time?" Asked Molly, who now stood beside the table. "Did it taste alright?"
"Yes, it was wonderful! Really nice Molly!"
"I agree with him, you certainly know how to cook!"
Molly smiled down at them.
"You've met two very nice boys, girls. Don't miss this opportunity!"
They all blushed.
"Molly…" Madison begun.
"Okay, okay – it's none of my business, but you could always listen to advices."
"Yes, I guess you're right Molly. Thank you, we appreciate it."
"Oh, trust me – I know what I'm talking about!"
"We've noticed," Stephanie said, blinking with one eye to the others.
"Okay, I get it. I'll stop."
"Thank you Molly."
"So do you want anything else?" Molly asked.
"Well, I don't know about you guys, but I would really like a nice cup of coffee." Said Madison.
"Yeah, that would be nice!" Michael said.
"I agree with you two," Stephanie said. "Joachim?"
"Yes, why not?"
"Alright. Madison you want one sugar, right?"
She nodded as answer.
"And Stephanie black. How about you two?"
"Milk for me please," Joachim said.
"And one sugar for me too, please," Said Michael.
"Alright, give me a few moments!" And then she was back in the kitchen.
When she came back again, a few moments later, she was holding a tray in her hands, with five cups of coffee.
"Do you mind if I sit down with you? You're my only guests left, and I would like some company."
"Of course we don't mind!"
Molly smiled, gave them their cups with the coffee, and then sat down her own and sat down beside Stephanie.
"So where were you before you came over here?"
The four of them grinned, and Michael was just about to answer when Molly begun to talk again.
"Don't tell me you were at a party!"
"Well yes… we were…" Madison said.
"Young lady, you and Stephanie are at far too many parties. According to your mom you're at parties every week! What happened with picnics and sleep over parties?"
Madison looked a bit guilty when she answered.
"Molly, I know I'm on a lot of parties, but… Well it's a way for me to meet a lot of friends, without having to spend one day on each one of them, I can meet them all on the party – at the same time. And we're having a great time, don't we Steph?"
"Yeah, we do Molly. Look at these two –" She said and looked at Michael and Joachim. "- They met a lot of new people tonight, and I'm sure they've met people they are gonna go to school with and everything. We're at parties because we want to meet friends, new and old."
"And I understand that, but why does it have to be that often, and in the middle of the night? Can't you just have a party on the beach, having picnic, and still meeting everybody?"
"Well, yes I guess that's possible, but first – I don't think there are many who would like to come… and second…"
"If they don't want to meet you on other places than parties and on the night, I don't think they are real friends. Shouldn't friends like to meet each other anytime?"
"No, and if you have many friends – you can't meet them all the time. Plus, it would be hard to find a place on the day when you aren't interrupt by tourist and other people."
Molly thought about what they had said before she answered.
"Well I guess you're right – but still I don't like you two hanging out in the middle of the night."
"Molly, we're not children anymore – we can take care of ourselves."
"I highly doubt that. But now let's talk about something else – this isn't leading us anywhere."
