“Don’t come any closer! I know kung fooooooo and I’m not afraid to use it!” Bex cries, holding herself up in some kind of pose that is supposed to be threatening but just looks ridiculous. She kinda reminds me of a female Kalen, only less annoying. I laugh until my stomach hurts, tears streaming down my face.
“Calm down, kung fu panda, he’s my security.”
“You have security?! Why? Are you famous?” Katie shriek-slurs and falls into Bex’s arms.
A car pulls up to the curb beside us and Security One runs around and opens the door. Bex attempts to contort Katie’s body and shove her into the car.
“Holy fuck, this is more work than trying to shove a soft cock into a pussy.”
“Meow,” Katie purrs.
Bex and I cry with laughter as I help her push Katie into the car and buckle her in. With absolutely no help whatsoever from the security guy. I huff. Jasper and Frost would have helped.
“Miss Rossi, we have been instructed to take you home first.”
“Aye aye, captain!” Bex salutes.
As we drive home Katie snores and Bex chats up the security – who really do try their best not to engage with her, but she makes it impossible. I laugh almost the entire way back to the house. I don’t realise we’ve pulled up out the front of Dad's house until Aadi runs over to the car.
“A little help please?” he asks, pointing towards his car. His friend Paddy looks horrified in the front seat.
I slide from the car and Aadi slides in. “What do you think you’re doing, perv?” Bex snaps.
“Pfft, as if I would perv on your manly ass.”
“Manly?! You could bounce coins off this baby!” she snarls as the car pulls away.
I jog over to Paddy’s car and open the back door. Kalen is naked and sprawled across the entire seat.
“Where are his clothes?” I ask Paddy. He looks at me and shrugs.
“Kalen, it’s time for bed.”
“No,” he whines. “I wanna dance.”
He starts humming under his breath and it takes me a moment to figure out the tune.
“Is that...are you singing...Ghostbusters?”
“WHO YA GONNA WHATSAPP?!”
“This isnothow the song goes, Kalen.”
“MY SISTER!” he continues to scream-sing at me oblivious to the time, his nakedness, or the danger of waking the street. I need to get him quiet and inside. Quickly.
“Hey, Kalen? What about that drunken sex I was promised?”
Kalen suddenly springs up out of his seat and slides out of the car with the grace of a ballerina.
“You didn’t hear a thing,” I warn Paddy.
“Hear what?”
I grin and nod, and he reverses the car out of the driveway as soon as I push the back door closed.
“Did you know Aus is like the hunger games?” Kalen whines in my ear. He’s trying to be quiet but he’s still kinda loud.
“Okay,” I say to placate him, hauling his ass through the house.
