Forks and Spoons: Chapter Nine.

"I'm just saying man, if we were gay I would definately be the pitcher." Donner said with a smirk.
"I don't know why the fuck we're having this conversation and how it even started" said Kim.
"Well, you said you think there's a chance that Midnight might be secretly gay and hiding it from the rest of us, and I said that it makes sense. And then you said...."
"Listen, I don't really care, Donner. Sorry, but I need to study this script."
"It's all good man." Donner turned to me. "You've been quiet this whole time man, what's up?"
"That girl, Mandy. She's incredibly cute in a weird way."
Kim stood up and paused and said,"Believe me, you don't want that" before he left the room. Donner and I just sat in silence for a while. Then we heard SK scream from the other room. I ran over there and saw him with his hands on the side of his head staring at a package of peach rings. "Um, what's wrong SK?"
"Do you know how many fucking Peach rings there are left?!"
I counted them, "Uh..looks like twenty three?"
"FUCK!!!! Blows my mind!"
"Oh is that a reference to that movie?" I said with a chuckle. At that moment SK got really close to my face and whispered, "It's real. 23's real.....asshole" and then went back to being his cheery self. SK sat down and started munching down on his peach rings. The phone rang. SK looked up at me, "Well? You gonna answer that?"
I walked over to the phone and picked it up. "Hello?"
"Who's this?"
"Eric, Eric Aldrin"
"Ok, well Eric can you tell SK that I'm one up on his ass. He needs to get on MY level. I just hooked up with this really hot Sang ger. And tell him that for me."
"Um alright, what was that again? A Sang ger? Um...how do you spell that?"
"Motherfucker. S-i-n-g-e-r"
"Ohhhhh singer!"
"That's what I said."
"Yeah sorry" He'd already hung up. "Hey SK! Shit....I forgot to ask who called but they said that they were one up on you and that you need to get on his level because he hooked up with a really hot singer."
"Wait, wait, wait. Did he say singer? Or did her Sang ger?"
"Sang ger"
"Ah shit son! That was Antone! That motherfucker! Shit, I gotta leave then. Take care of Mandy when she wakes up, Deuces Eric!" He said as he ran out of the room. Then, he ran back in, "Shit! My peach rings!" he picked them up and ran back out.
I decided to walk over to the kitchen and get a beer. I sat there sipping on it when Mandy walked in. She was wearing a button-up shirt and her legs were bare. I just decided to keep on sipping my beer. "So uh, you're Eric right?"
"Yeah, that's me"
"I'm Mandy."
"I know"
"Well....this is an awkward conversation" My phone vibrated.
"Hold on lemme check this."
"Ok. I'll be standing right here." I looked at my phone. It was from Donner, "Yo dude, are you gonna fuck her or wat?????" I closed my phone. "So Mandy, where are you from?"
"I'm from around here."
"Oh that's cool..."
"Hey, do you know where I can get some reefer?"
"Uh...I have no idea."
"Alright, well i'll see you later Eric."
She left. "Bye." I cursed at myself. I fucked up. Kim walked in. "So you fucked up man."
"I know."
"I told you, you don't want none of that."
"She's so gorgeous though. Even though she's..."
"Addicted to ganja? I know."
"But, I don't care. I think I want to ask her out."
"You ask her out Eric, and it's your fucking ass."
