The next morning I woke up in the bathroom with a huge hangover.
“fuuuuck” I mumbled as I sat up and noticed Yvonne was also waking up too.
“I need painkillers” she whined.
“I’ll get them” I said standing up and walking to the medicine cabinet and grabbing the painkillers, I grabbed some and then gave her the rest.
“man how much did we drink last night?” I asked rubbing my head
“I’m guessing a lot” Yvonne answered getting up
“yeah that explains the vomit here” I said looking around the bathroom disgusted
“it was partly my fault I’m sure…I‘ll clean it up don‘t worry” she said
“no! its ok! Its my bathroom and I’ll clean it”
“yeah, but I wanna clean it! I need something to get Wednesday off of my mind right now”
“you sure?”
“yeah I need it”
“mmkay, I’ll go see whats for breakfast then” I said as she nodded and then I ran downstairs. When I got there I noticed Andy and Alice sitting at the table talking while my dad was attempting to cook something.
“morning!” I said to Andy and Alice
“morning!” they said in unison
“watcha making?” I asked my dad
“ummm…well it was supposed to be eggs and bacon…want some?” he asked showing me the now black looking stuff.
“ummm…no thanks dad…maybe next time” I told him patting his head
“I’m surprised you woke up this early, and hours before work” he said
“no I’m supposed to be at work about 3 hours ago, but I’m sure Brandon won’t mind he's cool. Not like Tom, that guy always scared me for some reason” I said with a laugh
“riiight…so I wanted to ask you about last night, but you were too drunk, how did Yvonne get here and what is she doing here without Wednesday too?” he asked
“oh well she got here last night when I got here, and her and Wednesday got into a huge fight…also…she lost her baby so try not to bring it up”
“oh…wow…that’s really sad…does Alice know?”
“does me know what?” Alice asked
“no I meant Alice Cooper” my dad said with a laugh
“oh I see” she said with a laugh
“well I’m pretty sure he doesn’t” I said with a sigh
“well, she should tell him. Wednesday probably called him or something and now he's probably worried or something” my dad said as I nodded
“well you better go take a shower and get to work before you get fired. You smell like vomit” my dad said walking away making me laugh.
“so you two look happy” I told Alice and Andy
“we do?” Andy asked
“yeah, are you two like together or something?” I asked and they both slowly shook their heads no.
“oh well that sucks, you two actually do make a cute couple” I said with a laugh as they both looked away.
“so anyways, you were drunk last night?” Andy asked
“just a little” I said with a small laugh
“riiiight” he said with a laugh.
“hey by the way, where were you last night? Why’d you leave the show so early?” Alice asked
“eh I had to get out of there quickly” I said
“why?” Andy asked
“did it had something to do with Joey?” Alice asked
“ummm” I started
“he doesn’t hate you, you know” Andy told me
“I didn’t say that” I said
“yeah you did, we heard you last night” Alice said with a laugh
“oh” was all I said as I looked down at my feet.
“its ok, but all I’m saying is that he doesn’t hate you…though I do blame myself for what happened, I’m sorry” Andy told me
“no its my fault, I feel like such a bitch” I said with a laugh
“its ok. Besides it happened for the best, if it didn’t happen I wouldn’t have met Alice” he said putting an arm around Alice who looked really happy. I smiled,
“yeah well I still think you two are a cute couple” I said with a laugh
“psh! Whatever! You and Joey make a cute couple too ya know” Alice said with a laugh
“nah I don’t really think so” I said with a giggle.
“ha! Yeah right! You two are like meant for each other big time!” Yvonne yelled coming in with a laugh.
“yeah right” I said looking away
“exactly! Both of you are short and you two have a lot of anger and energy in you” Yvonne said with a giggle
“she's got a point there!” Andy said with a laugh
“that’s cute!” Alice said with a laugh as well.
“psh! Whatever, I’m gonna go take a shower” I said with a laugh as I turned around to walk away.
“you know when you left last night, he went looking for you” Andy said
“yeah he was a little crazy and then he was pissed that he had to leave back on tour instead of looking for you” Alice said making me stop walking,
“really?” I asked turning around to face them and they all smiled,
“yeah of course!” Alice said
“I don’t know, I need a shower” I said quickly walking away. I went upstairs to my room and quickly went to my bathroom and took a quick shower. I got out and dried myself and then did my makeup and got into some clothes and then I fixed my hair and grabbed all my work stuff and my bag and then quickly ran down stairs all while wearing high heeled boots.
“whoa how do you run in those things?” Yvonne asked amused
“I’ll get you later! See you guys later!” I yelled at all of them as I quickly ran outside the door and slammed the door shut. I went to my car and threw all my stuff in the back seat and then got in the front seat and turned the car on and quickly drove to work. When I got there, I ran inside to my office and then dropped my stuff on my desk and sat on my chair and starting catching my breath. Made it!
“October!” Brandon yelled coming up to me making me jump,
“h-h-heeey Brandon, whats up?” I said trying to act calm
“nothing much, I’ve been looking for you though”
“oh you have?”
“yeah, do you have the interviews?”
“yeah here they are” I said quickly grabbing some papers from my bag and handing them to him.
“thanks, I also wanted to assign you another thing for this summer”
“summer?”
“yeah, I heard your dad is gonna be on the Mayhem Festival this year right?”
“yup”
“well I want you to tour with him and interview him and the rest of the bands that will be there”
“really?”
“yeah you think you can handle that?”
“yeah of course!”
“awesome! Oh and by the way, how do you even run with those boots?” he asked amused
“oh don’t even start with me Mr!” I said with a laugh. He laughed and then walked away. I turned my computer on and started getting to work until I heard another bump on my desk making me jump, and I looked up to see Satyr again.
“Satyr! You promised that you wouldn’t fucking scare me again! Remember?!” I yelled
“oh I did huh…oh well” he said with a smirk as he sat on my desk
“so whats up?” I asked as I continued doing my work
“nothing, I just wanted to let you know that I am sorry for what happened last night and that it is in fact my fault that I ruined yours and the little Joey’s relationship”
“wow…Satyr wow…I’m speechless” I said amused looking up at him
“yeah I know I have a way with words don’t I?” he said making me laugh.
“but he does still love you, you should have seen him last night when you left! He was freaking out!” he said amused
“really?”
“well I wasn’t there when he was freaking out, but that’s what I’ve been hearing! I could imagine his face right now” he said with a chuckle trailing off.
“okaaaay” I said continuing with my work
“the point is he also thinks you hate him, and when I told him that you actually really do still love him, he looked extremely happy”
“yeah right”
“I put it on my fucking life! He looked really happy, but he still thinks you hate him”
“I don’t hate him”
“yeah and he doesn’t hate you”
“sure”
“yeah so if I were you, I would call him”
“I don’t know…I’ll think about it”
“alrighty then…so anyways, I’m only in town for a few of hours so I was wondering if you wanted to hang out before I leave”
“I have work?”
“and I leave at midnight, so I’ll wait”
“alright then, you can wait for me at my house. My dads there and some friends too”
“alright then, I’ll see you later shorty!” he said patting my head.
“hey!” I yelled making him laugh as he left. I giggled and then turned back and continued working. When I finished, I grabbed my stuff again and went outside to my car. I threw my stuff on the passengers seat and then sat on the driver’s seat and closed the door. I pulled my cell phone out from my bag and went through my contact list and stopped on Joey. Should I call him? Nah maybe later, or maybe he’ll call me. I put my cell phone back in my bag and started the engine and turned the radio on “Metro” by System of a Down started playing. I smiled to myself as I began driving back home thinking about stuff and mostly Joey. In minutes, I finally made it home and parked onto the driveway and grabbed my bag and my stuff and then got out of the car and made my way inside the house. When I was in, everything was quiet which was weird since usually its loud, so then I made my way to the kitchen and set my things on the counter and grabbed my phone. I walked up to the fridge and started looking for something to drink and then when I closed it Satyr appeared behind the door wearing his corpse paint and growling gibberish which at first freaked me out and then I slapped him making him laugh.
“what the fuck Satyr!” I yelled as he continued laughing and then Andy, Alice, and Yvonne appeared behind him also laughing.
“I told you she's easy to scare!” Satyr yelled amused
“you motherfucker! I’m gonna kill you!” I yelled as he started running and then I began chasing him around the house. Eventually we got to the backyard by the pool and he quickly ran to one side of the pool while I stayed on the other side.
“you’re not gonna get away that easy you bastard!” I yelled
“c’mon October! I won’t do it again! I promise!” he yelled
“no man! You already promised me that last time and you lied!”
“I’m sorry!”
“ok, but I’m still getting you back!”
“nooooo!” he whined while stomping his feet. I shook my head and then my cell phone started ringing, but just before I can check who it was, Satyr quickly attempted to run past me and I quickly threw my cell phone at him which hit him on the head at first, but then it bounced into the pool.
“ouch! That really fucking hurt!” he yelled as he stopped running and started rubbing his head
“uuuuugh! Look what you made me do” I said looking down in the pool and watched my phone sink.
“well it doesn’t work anymore that’s for sure” I said as I noticed Satyr was about to push me in the pool, but I quickly moved away and he fell into the pool instead.
“oops” I said looking at him amused as he swam up and glared at me.
“now if you excuse me, I’m gonna go get myself another phone since you made me break mine” I said walking away. I went inside and grabbed the house phone and the dial tone wasn’t working.
“dad the phone isn’t working!” I yelled
“I know! I’m working on that!” he yelled from the basement. I sighed and went up to Andy.
“can I borrow your phone please?” I asked
“Sure” he replied handing me his phone. I smiled and then dialed the cell phone company.
“hello this is Barbra from your phone company, how may I help you?” a chick asked after waiting a long time from being on hold.
“um yeah I was just calling to order another phone cuz I broke mine again”
“ok may I have your phone number and name?”
“yeah its 223 uh 123 and 6666 and my names October Manson” I said
“ok just a moment” she said and I waited for a few minutes and then she finally replied,
“um Miss. Manson, I am deeply sorry, but you can no longer get a new cell phone under the same number that you currently have. Is that alright?” she said
“what?! Why not?!”
“because you’ve reached the limit of--”
“goddamn it I don’t need an explanation! Just order me the damn phone and give me an easy phone number that I can memorize!”
“alright then Miss. You’ll have your new cell phone in about six to ten weeks”
“yeah thanks”
“thank you for calli--” she started, but I quickly hung up on her.
“just great” I murmured to myself
“time to drink some boooze!” Satyr yelled coming in with three bottles of wine, Jack Daniels, and Vodka and was still dripping wet.
“I’m in!” Yvonne yelled.
~Weeks Later~
It was a couple weeks later, and it was midnight. I was in my room on my lap top finishing some paper work that had to get turned in the next day. Then all of a suddenly I get an IM invite. I stopped working and clicked on the invite.
“who the hell is Mr. 666?” I said to myself as I shrugged and accepted the request for fun and then went back to work, but then I got an IM from the same person:
"Mr. 666” says: hey
I shrugged and stopped what I was doing to reply:
“October Manson” says: um hi?
“Mr. 666” says: this is October right?
“October Manson” says: well that’s what it says on my screen name right?
“Mr. 666” says: right…but just to make sure that there isn’t anyone fucking with me, this is really October Manson right?
“October Manson” says: yeah this is her. I’m sorry but do I know you?
“Mr. 666” says: …yeah…
“October Manson” says: ok? Who are you then?
“Mr. 666” says: ummm how about we see each other on the web camera instead?
“October Manson” says: no? what if you’re some perv?
“Mr. 666” says: I’m not…trust me”
I sighed and stared biting my lower lip thinking of what to do or say.
“Mr. 666” says: please? I’m not some stranger you don't know! I PROMISE!
I laughed
“October Manson” says: then why don’t you just tell me who you are?
“Mr. 666” says: cuz…I want to see you first
“October Manson” says: perv!
“Mr. 666” says: I am not!
I laughed again as he sent me a request for a web camera chat. My eyes grew wide. Fuck should I accept it? Oh fuck it! And with that I accepted it and waited to see who it was, and to my surprise it was Joey?!
“Joey?!” I said amused and relived that it wasn’t some pervert.
“yeah the one and only” he said with a smile
“wow what are you doing up this late? don’t you have a show tomorrow or something?” I asked
“yeah, well it doesn’t really matter” he said with a chuckle which made me giggle.
“so why don’t you answer your phone?” he asked
“well Satyr made me break my phones last time so I had to replace it along with my number and my dad refuses to pay for the house phone for some unknown reason”
“ah I see. I was beginning to think you didn’t want to talk to me”
“I was actually the one beginning…to think…that you didn’t want to…talk to me” I said with a small smile
“and hate me” I said
“of course I don’t hate you! I thought you hated me though”
“I don’t hate you!”
“really?”
“yeah”
“well this turned into a mess”
“yeah…it did”
“Joey! Go to sleep you damn midget!” I heard Lauren yell making me laugh.
“I am not a fucking midget!” Joey yelled back
“don’t yell at my woman midget!” Sid yelled
“hey fuck you!” Joey yelled
“no thank you! I don’t swing that way! that’s why I have Lauren!” Sid yelled back
“go to fucking sleep! I’m tired!” Corey yelled
“god! Alright! Fuck!…I’m sorry about that” Joey said looking back at me.
“its alright…you should go to sleep before they all attack you” I said laughing
“yeah I guess so”
“I’ll talk to you next time”
“yeah good night”
“good night” I said with a smile as I exited out. I smiled to myself. So now what happens?
