Love, Sex and Booze (Edited), chapter 2
Melanie sat on the end of the bed looking back at Warren sighing deeply. She tapped his head but he just moaned and rolled over. She knocked harder on his head and he finally let out a frustrated sigh.
"Would you fuckin' knock it off?"
"For fuck sake Warren." Melanie got up sat on a chair next to the window and lit a cigarette.
"Thought you were quitting... ." Warren said with his eyes still closed.
"Oh fuck you... .."
"Jesus who pissed in your cornflakes?"
"It's twelve o-fucking-clock Warren!" Melanie said loudly.
"What the hell has that got to do with anything Mel?" Warren said lazily.
"Everything! You stay in bed still fuck knows what time, then you go out!"
"Yeah to work" Warren said matter-of-factly
"Exactly you never have time for me!" Melanie whined
"Oh is that what this about?"
"Yes it fucking well is you insensitive twirp!"
"Twirp?"
" Why cant you just take me out for a date or just to a restaurant or just... ..somewhere!!"
"God Mel I take you out all the time... ."
"Oh yeah to one of your movie shoots... .whoopi di doo!" Melanie sighed and got up sitting on the bed again. "When was the last time we spent some... time... together?"
"Look... Mel you know how fucking busy I am right know... ."
"Busy? Doing what? Your on a BREAK. How come Tre can manage to take Emily out all the time."
"Fucking hell." Warren got up and slid out of bed putting on his t-shirt. "I'm fucking tired Mel... .I'm fucking tired of you moaning every fucking morning about this relationship crap... I'm going downstairs to get some waffles!" With that, Warren walked out of the door slamming it behind him.
Melanies mouth dropped and she threw a pillow at the door. She got up stomping across the hallway and down the flight of stairs. She thought of going into the kitchen but suddenly realised Warren was gonna be in there so she decided to go down into the basement instead to see Billie.
She got to the door knocking quietly. The door opened slowly as Billie appeared lookin like he had just woken up.
"Sorry did I wake you?"
Billie shook his head smiling. "No just a late night that's all. What's up you look pissed."
"I am... ."
"Wanna come in?" Billie asked raising his eyebrows.
Melanie had to smile. It always seemed to be Billie she would come to when she had an arguement with Warren. It's usually Sophie but she feels a bit uncomfortable talking about her personal life with Warren to his sister... .even though they're best friends.
Melanie slumped down onto the couch as Billie handed her a cigarette sitting down next to her.
"So what now?" billie asked
" I dunno I mean some times he's such a jerk, maybe it's just me maybe I'm being paranoid."
"Maybe you both want different things. You've got to admit you're both very different people."
Melanie inhaled her cigarette deeply thinking about what Billie had just said, nodding agreeing with him.
"Seriously Mel, why are you still going out with him, you can tell your not happy."
Melanie shook her head. " I don't know Billie, I'm just stupid! Maybe I should."
"Well it's not like you two are serious anyway I mean your just fucking right!"
Melanie laughed half-heartedly at what Billie had just said to her. Then suddenly realising what he said was actually true ,she gazed hard at him." You know what Billie you are so fucking right! I'm gonna break it off with him!"
" Oh ... ... "
" No I've been meaning to do this for a long time it is way over due. It's got nothing to do with you... .."
Melanie paused thinking about the last thing she had just said. Did it really have nothing to do with Billie. I mean they were good friends... but... there had always been something there. When they first moved into the house she was expecting Billie to make a move but somehow Warren got there first and she has no idea how the fuck that happened.
Meanwhile Billie swallowed hard knowing Warren would kill him if he knew Billie had given Melanie advice to dump him.
"Hey Mel... " Billie suddenly said snapping her out of her thoughts.
"Yeah?"
"D'you wanna go get some lunch downtown?"

Emily peeped round the door of Mikes room seeing Sophie's head pop out from under the covers. She smiled running into the room jumping onto the bed as Sophie groaned pulling the duvet over her head.
" Did'ya fuck?! did'ya fuck?!" Emily asked enthusiastically.
"Piss off." Sophie moaned
"Come on I want all of the juicy details!"
Sophie rolled over scowling at Emily.
"We didn't fuck." she said quietly.Emily could hear the sound of dissapointment in Sophies voice.
"WHAT!? You pussy! Why not ?"
"Shh!! We were messing about watching some crap movie that we weren't actually watching and we were this fucking close from fucking kissing then my fucking right-on-que brother walks in with the smuggest look on his face... .the stupid retard... .."
"Okay but how the hell'd you end up in his bed?"
" I had a erm.. very erm... big spider in my room!"
"OH that is sooooo pathetic" Emily laughed throwing a pillow at her.
"What can I say... ." Sophie threw the pillow back at her. She sighed heavily shaking her head. "Jesus he is so fucking hot... " Sophie whispered.
"Well god Sophie what's holding you back ?"
Meanwhile downstairs Mike was making himself a coffee as Tre walked in looking like he had just walked through a minefeild.
"Good morning!" Tre said cheerfully.
"Afternoon... ." Mike corrected. "You look like you just been in battle... "
"Yeah and I won the war!" Tre smiled winking at him.
"What about you huh? I saw a body in your bed as I walked past your bedroom... ..please don't tell me it was Billie... .!!"
"No it was not Billie... "
"So?!?!"
"So what?" Mike shrugged.
"Oh my god you are so fucking useless it's unbelievable." Tre said taking the coffee Mike had just poured for himself.
"Oh nothing happened if that's what you wanted." Mike said plainly.
"What so you just decided to sleep in the same bed but not fuck?"
"She had a spider in her room... ."
Tre raised an eyebrow at Mike. "She had a spider in her room?"
Mike shrugged again pouring himself another cup of coffee leaning on the breakfast counter.
" You know Mike... " Tre started, "That spider is probably getting more fucking action than you are... "
"Thanks... " Mike said dully
"Seriously I mean when was the last time you had sex man... .honestly... "
Mike sipped his coffee looking at Tre. "Tre please-"
"What? Come on Mike when was the last time you had sex with someone... ."
"Couple of months I don't know... !"
"See what I mean! That's not good enough! You wanna know when I last had sex Mike?"
"Not really... .look I'll just... .do it... .in my own time... ."Tre raised his eyebrows at Mike. "Don't look at me like that Tre!"
"Look at you like what?" Tre shrugged smiling. He picked up his cup of coffee turned around and made his way out of the kitchen.
"Would you fuckin' knock it off?"
"For fuck sake Warren." Melanie got up sat on a chair next to the window and lit a cigarette.
"Thought you were quitting... ." Warren said with his eyes still closed.
