Ch 2 The party
Anthony's Pov
I sat in front of my TV looking at the screen with a concentrated look on my face. I was playing a speed run of sonic the bleep of me collecting coins sounded through the speakers. My mom then walked in a look of horror on her face as she looked at the screen.
"Oh my god, it's no wonder kids are so troubled when they're at home playing such horrible video games like this!"
"Jesus Christ mom it's sonic this game's like 600 years old. Have you even seen present day violent video games? They're photo realistic, motion controlled, virtual realities, and a hair away from genuine murder."
"Is this not a new game?"
"Ha. No. You only need to look at the graphics I could stick a paintbrush up my ass and draw better things on toilet paper."
"Why are you playing it then?"
"Because it's awesome. They don't make games like this anymore, not since so much attention was put on graphics and all that motion control horseshit at the beginning of the millennium."
As my mom was once again going to confront me about my language the door opened and my dad walked in and they started a conversation.
"Hey guys!"
"Hey, how was work?"
I started in.
"Those kids throw cake at you again?"
"Among other things. Any way I'm really sorry I couldn't make it to your graduation Anthony."
"It's cool I don't care. I didn't even want to be there."
I knew what was coming.
"And stop looking at each other, I'm not just saying I don't care and crying myself to sleep because you missed my grad, I really don't give a shit."
"Anthony!"
"I'll make it up to you, I promise."
"I don't care!"
Moment of silence.
"God, why is tails such a fucking idiot!"
My mom sighed.
"So what have you got planned tonight?"
"Beating this game. Or in other words nothing."
"Are you kidding me? There's nothing you want to do?"
"I don't really have any friends, and it's not that I'm socially awkward it's just that everyone at school is just a butthole."
"I don't know how you expect to make friends if you don't give anyone a chance."
"I don't."
"Won't you please go out and do something?"
"Besides the fact that grad sucks ass and isn't even worth celebrating, I'm actually kind of contempt on beating sonic 2 right now."
"Didn't that boy at the restaurant say there was going to be a party why don't you go to that?"
I laughed.
"Josh's party? Sure let me grab my coat."
"Really?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"Because josh is a dick and so is everyone else going to his retarded party."
"I'm not letting you spend your graduation in this house. I want you to go to that boy's party!"
"No!"
A few minutes of being forced into a car later…
We arrived at the front door of a house booming with music.
"I cannot believe I'm here."
"Just attempt to have fun. I'll be back to pick you up at 9:00."
"Mom, 9:00 is when these assholes start to party! If you come pick me up everyone's going to make fun of me defeating the purpose of me to make friends here!"
"There's nothing funny about your mom picking you up."
"I know but they'll all laugh anyway because they're insecure."
"More than you?"
Silence.
I sighed got out of the car and walked to the door.
"This sucks!"
"I'll be back at 9:30." She drove away.
"Wow an extra half hour don't go crazy mom."
I rang the doorbell. A guy who looked wasted came to the door.
"Hi."
"Who're you?"
"Anthony."
"Did I invite you?"
"No."
He slammed the door shut.
"That went well."
I rang the doorbell again. He answered the door again. When he opened the door I looked around.
"Man who was that guy at the door just now what a loser!"
"Who're you?"
"I'm… Dillon you invited me here a couple days ago. I like to drink beer and have underage sex."
"Oh well in that case welcome to the party bro wooooooo!"
"Thanks, you fuckin' asshole." I walked past him.
"Uh, what?"
The party was booming with noise.
Another guy walked up to me.
"Hey Dillon, can you hold my beer I'm so wasted."
He stumbled and slid down the wall. I swished the beer around in my hand.
"This can is practically full."
"Meaning?"
"Meaning you're a poser asshole who's not actually drunk."
"Says you."
"Says, you're barely touched can of pussy light beer!"
I then heard voices from upstairs,
"Oh shit, I only have 8 condoms I'm gonna have to go get some more!"
"It's okay I'm on the pill."
"No, I have to go to the drug store I'll be back soon baby girl."
I heard clunking noises as feet hit the stairs. Oh no. He looked at me.
"Hey I know you! You're the guy that was hitting on my girl!"
"Believe me I wouldn't hit your girl friend unless I had a baseball bat or the cure for AIDS!"
Thwack! Crash!
I flew back and hit the glass coffee table. It shattered.
30 mins of waiting for my mom later...
"Thanks for 'talking' me into going out tonight mom you were right as always."
"How's you're nose?"
"Still bleeding."
