Drabble: Lunchtime Discussion
So this story is a drabble...but it's not a drabble...I guess it's really just a really short short story... but whatever... it was all spanned from a random thought I had this morning when I was dog tired and getting ready to go to school... I will admit that the thought was a very Jason Cross like question.... and the story just came naturally...
Lunchtime Discussion
“You know what I’ve always wondered,” Jason said as he, Zeke, Troy and Chad sat at a table in the East High cafeteria.
Zeke, Troy and Chad exchanged looks, not sure if they wanted to know.
“You know those five hour energy drinks?” Jason asked. “If you drank a fifth of it, would you get extra energy for an hour?”
“What would you need an extra hour of energy for?” Chad asked.
“Well you know,” Jason said, lowering his voice. “For like after sex and stuff.”
“Are you sure you’re doing it right?” Chad asked. “Because I always want the extra energy before and during sex.”
“Yeah, well, Kelsi likes to talk and stuff,” Jason shrugged. “I just-”
“Dude, that’s just wrong,” Chad shook his head. “We’re physically programmed to fall asleep right after. It would be wrong for us to go against nature to stay awake after sex, especially for talking.”
“Is that so, Chad Danforth?” Chad winced when he was smacked in the back of the head by his girlfriend Taylor. “If I remember correctly, and I’m never wrong, you were the one who couldn’t stop talking the last time we had sex.”
His friends snickered behind their hands. Chad shot them all dirty looks.
“Enough sex talk, boys,” Taylor said. “I’m sure you have nothing better to talk about, but seriously, talk about something that won’t get you written up or beaten up by your girlfriends.” She pinched Chad’s cheek. “I’m sure Chad can give you guys some ideas of what to talk about, he’s full of random information.”
Chad groaned and covered his face with his hands. Leave it to his girlfriend to humiliate him in front of all his friends. She wasn’t afraid of hitting anybody where it hurt-she would be an amazing lawyer after law school.
“So that still doesn’t answer my question,” Jason said after several minutes. “If you drink a fifth of a five hour energy drink, will the extra energy only last you an hour?” His friends groaned and got up to leave. “Guys? Hey, come back here.”
