Chapter twenty-six: Jebus’s adventure


(The kitchen. The morning after Chris’s party)

Jaque: Salut, ma petite, ça va?
Mac: Ça va bon, merci, et tu?
Jaque: (kisses Mac) Trés belle. Mais, I have a question.
Mac: Would the question happen to be “why are we the only people speaking French in the household?
Jaque: Well, that is a good question, but no. I was wondering why there are three men asleep in our living room.
Mac: Huh? (looks in the living room) Oh, those men.
Jaque: Did I miss something last night?
Mac: That’s Skids, Cyanide, and Fox. They got trashed at Chris’s party last night, so I guess they passes out.
Jaque: Where’d Chris go?
Mac: He left with Mikhael and Harley. Everyone left really late this morning, and Tasuki’s…wait, I never saw him leave.
Jaque: Then where is he?

(Mac and Jaque go down into the basement)
Mac: Found him.
Tasuki: (is curled up under the bar, sleeping with an empty bottle in his hand) …noplacelikehome…
Mac: I wonder when PFf will realize he’s gone.
Jaque: I don’t think I want to be here when she does.

_-_-_-_-_-

(PFf’s house)
PFf: Huh, it feels like something’s missing. (looks around) Playstation’s here, games are here, I’ve got everything important. But it’s quiet…Hmm…

_-_-_-_-_-

Jaque: Hey, Jebus wasn’t outside when we got back last night. Do you know where he was?
Mac: No. I wonder where he went.
Jebus: (walking in with a smirk) Yo!
Mac: (crosses arms) And where were you last night, young man?
Jebus: (blush) I, uh…it’s a long story.
Mac: I’ll bet. (phone rings. Mac answers it) Hello?...yeah…really?...*shocked expression* What?!...Oh my god!
Jebus: (meanwhile) ugh. (blush)
Jaque: What were you doing last night?
Mac: (to phone) Alright. (hangs up) wow…(turns to Jebus with evil grin) Go Jebus!
Jebus: Shit.
Jaque: What happened?
Mac: (drapes arm across Jebus’ shoulders) Our hippie friend here wrangled himself a woman!
Jebus: Stop making me sound like some kind of loser. (removes Mac’s arm) It’s not like I was out picking up chicks.
Jaque: So what happened, man? I wanna know!
Jebus: Kino and I…kinda…um…
Mac: They were neckin!
Jebus: God! Stop making me sound like a perv!
Jaque: You kissed Kino? Wait, who is Kino?
Mac: A really scary chick, but that’s beside the point.
Jebus: You’re just making me feel better and better all the time.
Jaque: I thought you were and angel.
Jebus: Hey, when in Rome, right?
Mac: Our little angel’s becoming a man!
Jebus: Leaving now. (walks out)
Mac: (calling after him) Jebus and Kino sittin’ in a tree! (bottle crashes near her)
Tasuki: Shut th’ hell UP! (goes back to sleep)
