One day, probably out of an attempt to relieve the boredom, I wandered into my sister's room - it was always a bit of an off limits area; we had a kin...d of mutual, unspoken understanding that we didn't go into each other's room, unless invited, which was pretty rare. I must admit that I wouldn't have wanted her going through my room just in case she found my stash of porn mags that I had hidden away inside the sleeves of LP's. These days we got along ok, though when younger we constantly argued. " O'Reilly groaned as Colin gave him the best blowjob of the present age. The Captain was preoccupied with his problem. "We've got the thing surrounded, O'Reilly so figure this thing out and meet us 10 miles south of town." "Yes." said O'Reilly, "Yes, Yes. . .Yes!" That seemed to satisfy the Captain, who strode off to meet his destiny with the giant peanut butter sandwich. O'Reilly fell into the chair behind him, spent. He looked at Colin with glassy eyes as she walked. Kevin pulled Mark into a booth along the back wall, Kerrie huddled in the corner behind him. The bartender brought over two beers and another Margarita. Brave move, Mark. I have to say Im not surprised. You were always a tough little shit. Mark laughed. Have you been hanging out with these guys since college? What the hell? Kerrie listened as they caught up. Kevin was six years older than Mark and had gone to the same college. Hed dropped out a year before they got there but was always hanging. “No kidding,” I agreed, sitting down almost completely hard and feeling relieved but also a tad frustrated at not being sure what Ford was going to say next or where things might have gone from there.Nick joined us, and Adam handed us each a steaming cup of coffee. Ford pulled up a large brown bottle and gave it to me. “Here, this will get your day started right.”It was Irish cream, and I poured a little into mine before handing it back to him. “Thanks, man.”“No problem. Pass it around.”We took.
