Part 2: Chapter 9
Chuck and Beth were sitting on the front porch drinking cocktails. Chris arrived and saw them.
"Drinking cocktails at 7:00 AM?" Chris asked.
"Don't judge us," Beth said. "We're depressed and Jacob is at Haley and Nathan's. He's spending the day and then night."
"Want to join us?" Chuck asked.
"Make Chris Keller's a triple," Chris said.
About an hour later, they were all drunk.
"I can't believe Jamie moved to Maine," Chuck said drunkenly. "Maine. What's so great about Maine? The seaports? Well we have seaports here!"
"I think Maine is where they discovered lobsisters," Beth said drunkenly. "I mean monsters. No, it's that L word that I can't even say cuz I'm so drunk."
"Lobsters," Chris said drunkenly.
"This sucks," Beth said. "My sister abandoned me. Who moves across the country just like that."
Beth gasped.
"I did that," Beth said. "When I moved to California! Oh god! I'm a deserter!"
"This is probably because I'm selfish," Chuck said. "Oh god! I'm selfish!"
"Yes you are," Chris said. "But we love you! Oh god! Love! Lana!"
"I haven't heard that name in a long time," Beth said.
"Chris Keller has been with so many woman," Chris said. "But Lana, she's different. I love her! Love her! I must get to her!"
Chris got up and began running.
"I'm coming Lana!" Chris shouted.
"Chris!" Chuck shouted holding up his. "You've gots to call the girl on this talking box!"
"Oh yeah," Chris said walking back. "Silly Billy."
"Who's Billy?" Beth asked.
"I don't know," Chris said. "Chris Keller is so drunk at…"
Chris looked at his watch.
"8:10 AM," Chris said.
Chuck handed Chris his phone and Chris dialed Lana's number.
"Hello," Lana said when she answered.
"Lana!" Chris said drunkenly.
"Chris?" Lana asked. "Chris Keller?"
"I love you baby!" Chris shouted.
"Are you drunk?" Lana asked.
"A little bit," Chris said. "I need you. I can't live without out you."
"Chris," Lana said. "It's not that I'm unhappy you called…"
"Come back to me Lana, you're my loaded gun!" Chris sang into the phone. "Can't live without you Lana, you're my loaded gun."
"Goodbye Chris," Lana said hanging up.
"She turned off her talker thingy," Chris said.
After drinking some more, everyone blacked out. Chuck woke up that night next to Beth. He had a very bad headache.
"Beth?" Chuck asked.
Beth woke up and moaned.
"Hangover," Beth moaned.
"Me too," Chuck said.
"Coffee," Beth said getting up.
"And lots of it," Chuck said also getting up.
"Beth!" Chuck said looking around. "This isn't our room!"
"Oh my god!" Beth said. "We're in Jamie and Sophia's room!"
"How'd we get here?" Chuck asked.
"Coffee first," Beth said.
Chuck and Beth walked downstairs and saw Chris with his shoes and socks on his hands, passed out on the couch. Chuck started the coffee while Beth woke Chris up.
"Wake up!" Beth shouted.
"Headache," Chris moaned.
Chris got up and looked at his hands.
"Why are my shoes and socks on my hands?" Chris asked.
"More importantly," Chuck said. "How did we get here?"
