Dave and Treyson were always hyperactive playing video games or whatever. Anytime they got along was a blessing for me. Dave and I made friends with a few neighbors and it really started feeling like we belonged there. That was until Dave caused the biggest and stupidest scene ever.
Our neighbors from two doors down were similar to our personalities. Mike was a body builder, as a hobby, while his wife Kristin was a stay-at-home mom. They had one boy and one girl close to Treyson’s age. The kids got along and us parents got to party. We tried to party anyways. This wasn’t the first time we hung out with them, but it was the first time we drank all day and all night with them.
As the night went on, Trey wanted to go home and chill playing video games. So I ordered pizza for us all at Mike and Kristin’s. I took some pizza to Trey and checked on him and the dogs. I got back to the adults when Dave said that the music sucked, I asked Mike if I could play some music, thinking it was a compromise for Dave. I turned on some music, oldies but goodies, Mike and Kristin liked the music but Dave gave a big sigh. I walked him down the driveway asking what was going on with him. He was clearly drunk and the asshole had replaced Dave, which I had no idea.
Dave proceeded to tell me that the music was stupid and he didn’t want to stay. I told him that we were listening to his music but the three of us didn’t like rap as much as he did. We were listening to all kinds of different music. Once I put my music on it became a problem, so with my liquid courage, I told him “too bad, go home party pooper”, hoping he would laugh and loosen up a bit. That did not happen, not even close. He yelled “fine, fucking go have fun without me”, and I knew then he was gong to snap if I didn’t walk away.
