Phil and I had just finished our movie when a car pulled into our driveway. "Phil there's a car in our driveway." I said. Phil asked, "why is there a car in our driveway?" "oh, it might be Alex's friend." i said. We both got up and headed to the window. "Damn it, the windows are too dark to see who this "friend" of Alex's is." I said. Phil made a sound of frustration just as Alex walked out of the car. "Wait, is that a slight smile on her face?" I asked. Phil squinted, "Maybe." we backed up from the window and quickly ran to the sofa. Alex walked in the door and the house was filled with the smell of alcohol. "Alexander Katherine, what the actual fuck." I shouted as she entered the lounge.  she said, "For starters, I'm not drunk and I did not drink any alcohol. I'm just covered in it." "Why?" I asked.  She replied, "Karaoke contest, I won. The girl I was up against, who happened to be the head cheerleader, got pissed and sprayed me with alcohol." Phil and I went silent. After a few minutes I said, "We're so sorry that happened to you Sweetheart. Why don't you go shower and change then come back down stairs and we'll talk." She nodded and headed upstairs. "We should call the school." Phil said. I replied, "We should, but that'll backfire on us." "Oh, true." He replied.
