The day was quiet, the sun was beaming down on the two, and boy was it hot! Flander was propped back in the lounge chair, while Hiram was lied back on the lounge chair beside Flander. Flander was not even close to being new to meth, so he was wired up on the inside, but seemed so calm as he lied back in the chair, texting on his phone. Hiram's heart was racing, his eyelids were sunk into his face, making his eyes more than visible. His nerves were worked up, he was scared of what was going to happen when Tess got there. Yet he felt so alive, he felt as if he could run up and down the beach below them for two days straight. All of a sudden, he heard a noise, like a door shutting. He leaned up quick in his chair, startling Flander. As they both stared at each other, Flander began to laugh hysterically. "Chill out bro, don't start geekin'.. Tess'll be here soon.", Flander said before looking back down to his phone. Hiram sighed, before hopping up from his chair. "Flander... I'm dyin'.. I'm not geekin', -I'M FUCKIN' DYIN'!-", he shouted out, pointing out to Flander. Flander looked up, leaning in to push Hiram's hand down, "Don't do that.". Flander's eyebrows come to a slant as he scolded Hiram for shouting.

"I---", just then Hiram heard another door shut, and this time he was sure it was Tess coming out to the balcony to join him and Flander. Hiram's heart sped up as a huge burst of adrenaline poured out into his body, his feet began kicking as hard as they could-the next thing he knew he had done ran across the balcony and squeezed against the wall, breathing loudly. He covered his lips with his right hand, cupping the sound of his breathing. Flander began chuckling, turning to watch Hiram run away, but his chuckle come to a halt when he turned his head and seen Tess. "Hey baby-Where is Hiram?", Tess asked before leaning down towards Flander and kissing him. Flander just leaned his head back on the lounge chair and pointed to Hiram's direction with his left index finger. Tess sighed, whistling after. "HIRAM! COME EAT!", she yelled out. In Tess' hands was four boxes of pizza. She walked over to the table in between Flander's lounge chair, and the lounge chair that Hiram had sit in. She sat the pizza down on the table and turned, now seeing Hiram walk slowly towards her. She cocked her right eyebrow, "Hiram.", she called out in a low enough tone to where he could still hear.

Hiram bit his bottom lip as he come to a halt where he stood. His heart was beating so fast it felt as if it would shoot out his chest at any given second. His eyes were still bugged, and Tess had done noticed them. She sighed, facepalming before looking over to Flander. "You motherfucker.", she said calmly as she walked backwards to the rail of the balcony, leaning against it. Flander looked up to Tess, "You noticed huh?". Tess nodded, "Oh yea', (She looks over to Hiram before looking back to Flander) it's more than obvious. His eyes are fuckin' bugged Flander!" Hiram wiped his nostrils with the back of his right hand, not to get any mucus from it, but just more of a bad nerve kind of motion. Flander stared at Tess a while before responding, "Look, don't even try to say I smoked meth with a fuckin' sixteen year old. He was out on the beach and got geeked, I done got onto him for it. Let's eat pizza.". Hiram's mouth dropped as Flander's word flowed from his mouth. THE FUCK?! This motherfucker begged me for over an hour to smoke meth with him! My cousin really is a piece of shit, no wonder my family doesn't like him and Freddy. Fuck this, I odda'.. Nah I am!

No sooner than the thoughts ran through his head did Hiram began to power walk across the balcony, shouting out: "You motherfucker! You BEGGED me to smoke it with you!". Hiram began running by this point, towards Flander, only to be backhanded to the floor by Tess. She pointed her finger down at him, before snatching him up by his shirt. "Listen here kid. You may live in my house and smoke a little weed, get a little tipsy. BUT I WILL BE DAMNED IF YOU SMOKE THAT SHIT! It is the devil. This drug will rape everything you got, including your self esteem.". Tess shoved Hiram back, sighing, "Just go swim Hiram. I'll talk to you later." Flander sighed as he jumped up from the lounge chair, snatching Tess back to where she now stood in front of him. "Dammit Tess, you don't run shit around here. Don't be puttin' your hands on him.". Tess shook her head violently, smiling towards Flander, "Go to hell.". Flander looked to Hiram, who was walking past them. "Stay out here Hiram, it's all good.". Tess shook her head to Flander's command towards Hiram, shoving him violently with both hands. Flander stumbled before catching himself.

"Look bitch you push me again..", Flander threatened Tess before being cut off by her. "What will happen? What will happen Flander? I know you won't hit me back, 'cause I-I'll beat your ass." Flander sighed looking to Hiram, who was shaking his head towards him. "Dude if you hit Tess, I'll kick your ass.. I'm already mad and--", just then Hiram was cut off due to Flander's left hand backhanding him to the mouth. His lip busted open as he stumbled back. Hiram, who was now in shock, looked to Tess, who was now punching Flander repetitively, throwing left-right combos to his face. Hiram took a few steps back, unsure what to do. Flander reached his hands out and snatched Tess up into the air, staring up to her, in her eyes. "Bitch, I ain't puttin' up with your shit either.", he said before slinging her across the balcony. She yelled as she landed on her side, her right arm now being scratched up. Hiram yelled out "NO!" as he ran towards Flander. Flander stood there until Hiram got close, then grabbed him and slung him across the balcony, causing him to land almost right next to Tess. Flander pointed his finger out to both of them, "Look. I'm sorry this just happened, I love you both. But when I get home tonight, SHIT BETTER HAVE ALREADY CHANGED AROUND HERE!". Flander turned around, walking away from the scene. "Damn you Flander! Just--", Tess began to say before getting cut off by Flander, "FUCK YOU TESS!". Flander pulled his cigarettes out, sparking one up as he entered the elevator. After the elevator took him to the garage, he climbed into his Mustang. Inside the Mustang, he put his key in the ignition, grabbing his shades that hung on the rearview mirror. After sliding on his shades, he opened the garage door using a button on his remote that hung on the key chain, then sped away down the road.

Tess looked over to Hiram, frowning as she stood up and assisted him in standing up. "I'm sorry, if you wanna' leave now, I can--", Hiram cuts her off. "No Tess, we just had a small argument, our family is going to be alright.. We just gotta' keep Flander off meth for now on.". Tess wiped the tears that were now flowing from her eyes. Hiram reached out and pulled her towards him, her face now resting on his shoulder. "I'm sorry I got high with him.. I just wanted to try it..". "Don't worry 'bout it, just call Freddy and tell him to go after Flander before something else happens." Hiram turned his head to the right of him, looking over the balcony, staring down at all the people that filled the beach. He bit his lip, sighing softly. In a way, this has brought me closer to Tess and Flander... I put up with Dad hitting me all those years, I can be strong today. Besides Flander hits like a pussy. Hiram laughed at his thoughts, with Tess asking "What?". Hiram shook his head slightly, "Oh nothin'.. A girl fell on her ass down at the beach..".

OOC: Ahha, I always make the font small so when I preview it before I post it, it doesn't make my screen go haywire. (Something about my laptop and this forum makes the previews not show right) So yeah, it should be regular font anyway. Let me do that!

EDIT: My bad for not saying this at first (: but thanks!! Appreciate it. I know Flander is looking pretty crappy right now, but his actions will unfold later on when the storyline develops a bit more (: Hopefully bikz is down for roleplaying Tess' sisters with me, that'll really help this storyline.

OOC: Tricky question. If you mean is she still Kamikaze Kate's older sister, then of course :P But if you mean is she the same old "take the piss out of anyone who cares about fashion" then well that's a little complex. She does care about how she looks if there is a reason to, for example: Her and Flander are going out somewhere nice, then yes she will dress up. But if they are just going out to a bar or something, then she will just throw holy jeans on with any old t shirt. Also, she started out as a remedy for Flander, forcing him to stay off drugs, but eventually she got addicted to meth with Flander. But as you see in this roleplay, she has quit smoking meth for her son "Atticus", who is turning two next month. And to answer your question about her name, she is still Tess Bottom, but that will change soon as Flander and her are engaged. And thanks (: <3

OOC: I hate to tell you this, but if Tess was to meet some of these people, she probably wouldn't like them. :P Nah kidding, Tess needs more family. I'm tired of rping Flander and her as loners who stick together, plus they have a kid now, so the family should at least come see the kid some time. (:

OOC: We should really rp these two together. :P I need it for my story.
