"I don't want to go" Debbie and I whined to Fiona. "It's a party, you'll have fun" Fiona said. "Not with jasmines kids" I said "yeah, they just pick on me and talk about how great their dad is" "well their great dad is off for spring break partying with friends so Jasmine is going to do the same. I want to party and not worry about you guys home alone, so you're coming" Fi said. We both sighed. Fiona put a bottle of vodka in her bag and grabbed Liam from the highchair. "Get your coats and let's go" she said.
Jasmine made us go upstairs while the adults partied downstairs. "This is so boring" "I knew it would be" "I'm going to get something to drink" I went down into the kitchen. There was white powder lined up on the kitchen table among all the bottles of alcohol. I spotted some wine and grabbed it "what are you doing?" Jasmine asked from behind me. I turned around "what are you doing?" I asked back "coke?" I added with a glance at the bench. "It's a party. Get back up stairs" she said and pushed me towards the stairs. The bottle of wine was clearly in my hand but she didn't take it from me. I ran into the room and showed everyone what I got. "Drink anyone?" I said. The older kids hogged it but I managed to get a mouthful, even Debbie joined in. "Your moms doing coke" I said. "There's coke here" one of the other kids said and pointed to a bottle of pop. "Not that kind" I said. "So, she always does it when dads not around" Becky said "we aren't allowed to tell dad though, she gives us money" Cane added. It didn't take long for the other kids to start acting drunk. "I'm going to try that coke" Carl said with a grin. "No way, Fiona will kill you" Debbie said. "I know something we can do" Becky said and grabbed Carl's hand and took him out of the room. The other kids went downstairs to see if they could get more booze, Debbie went with them I stayed with Liam who was asleep on the floor.
It didn't take Debbie long to come back, she looked upset "did you get in trouble?" I asked her "I saw Becky naked, with Carl" "really? Carl would love that" "she's got hair, down there. I don't. Everyone's growing up and I'm still a kid" Debbie cried. "Shaving would be a pain" I said. Debbie just cried. "It will happen, there's a photo of Fiona with me when I was just born. She's looks just like you. And then by her birthday she had boobs. It happens very fast" I said. Debbie stopped crying. "This party sucks, I'm going to sleep" she said and went and lied down with Liam. "Ok" I said and went to see if I could peak in on Carl and Becky.
I heard someone stumbling up the stairs then Fiona came around the corner. She was leaning against the wall and didn't look very well. I went over to her and grabbed her arm. "Bathroom?" She muttered. I pointed to the door, she tried to rush forward but just tripped over her own feet. I grabbed her and led her into the bathroom. She stumbled to the toilet and projectile vomited all over it. She hung her head in the bowl. I tried to get some of her hair out of the way as she started to heave again.
I pushed her onto the bed, took her shoes off and dragged her feet onto the bed. She was almost passed out. I found a blanket to put over her then went to check on Debbie. Carl was back in the room and asleep too.
Jasmine was leaning over Fi when I went back into the room. The blanket had been pushed down. "What are you doing?" I asked her. Jasmine quickly sat up and look flustered "oh, umm, argh. What happened? What's she doing in here?" she stuttered and pulled down her dress then tried to crawl of the bed, but she struggled. "Drunk, she's passed out" I said. "Yeah, well let her be. And stay upstairs, it's getting a bit crazy downstairs" she said and left. I went and laid next to Fi, she must have woken up for a bit as her top and skirt had all moved up. I fixed her top up and pulled the blanket back over her. I grabbed her hand, it was wet, hopefully not from the vomit. I rested my head on her shoulder and fell sleep.

I woke up to more vomiting, this time right onto the bed. Debbie wondered into the room with Liam in her arms "It's morning" she mumbled as she scratched her head. She came over to the bed side and put a hand on Fiona's shoulder but pulled back when she noticed the vomit. "Ewww, gross. Let's get her up and out of here" she said. Carl came running into the room, "want to play stacks? There's heaps of people passed out downstairs" he said with a huge grin on his face. "We got to get Fiona home" I told him. His excitement disappeared as soon as he took a proper look at her. "Go get our coats, Lucy take Liam, I'll get her up" Debbie instructed.
I handed Fiona the drink bottle and she took another sip. "That party was insane, I've never seen so many adults naked before" Carl was saying. "And Becky?" I said with a smirk. Carl just grinned. "What?" Fiona mumbled, "nothing, lets just get home" Debbie said then slapped me on the arm. "Don't stress her out" she whispered.
By the time we got home Fiona had perked up. The scene out the front of the house make her wake up even more. A girl with a couple of older guys were passed out on the lawn, the front door was wide open. "Lip! Ian! What the hell!" she yelled. Carl and I shared a glance and rushed inside. It looked like they had had an even better party then Jasmines. There were even more people passed out here, there was a random statue on the coffee table, two funnels, heaps of bongs and a big pipe. "No fair, how could I miss this!" Carl whined and grabbed one of the funnels and pretended to drink from it. "Daddy?" Debbie asked and went to shake one of the people on the ground, they were covered in paint but with a closer look I realised it was Frank too. "Lip! Ian!" Fiona yelled again. "Stacks?" I suggested to Carl. He nodded and ran over to the bookshelf. We made a pile then got to work stacking the books on an unconscious person, we agreed it wouldn't be fair if one of us used Frank as he never woke up during stacks.
