For those of you who aren't acquainted with my social group or have no knowledge of my close friends (most of you) there is a particular story I always think about whenever I am hanging out with my friend Cody. There have been many numerous times Cody and I have done stupid things only best friends can do. So here is some context, Cody and I have been friends since freshman year and he has always been one grade higher than me. Since this year I am a junior that means my best friend is graduating with this years senior class and to be honest I'm quite not sure what to think about that. It is a weird feeling to think about how one of my closest friends is going to be moving on in life and is on his way to becoming a college student and eventually an adult. Anyway, today is the first day of winter break and we decided to hang out and there is always a funny story we reflect on whenever we hangout and talk about good times. It was a Saturday, and neither of us had homework to do besides studying (but lets be honest studying isn't really homework). Since there was no homework to be done and nowhere to go we decided to hang out all day. Cody lives fairly close to me, not even a mile away, so it was always very easy to just chill and relax whenever we had the spare time. On this day, I had the idea of spending the night at his house because I was tired of staying at home all the time and being bored out of my mind. Cody had a copy of Black Ops 2 so nights at his house were always entertaining. My mother was gone for the weekend seeing her current girlfriend down in Yakima so she called my uncle Craig and asked him if he could swing by every now and then to my house and check up on me and my dogs. The thing about my uncle Craig though is that he is just like me but even more lazy if you could believe that. He eventually came over during the afternoon while Cody and I were in my room watching ghetto fight videos on Youtube (would highly recommend, you won't be disappointed). Craig was out in the living room watching Stephan Colbert and eating a bowl of butterfingers when I informed him that I was going to Cody's house to hang out. "I don't give a f***, don't get in trouble." he said while pieces of chocolate were falling into his beard. I laughed and said farewell and soon enough Cody and I were walking and preparing for an awesome night. When we eventually got to Cody's house and so happened to pick up some drinks and snacks on the way there, his brother had a friend over as well and his step dad told him that we would be to much company and that we had to leave. Yeah, it was dumb and confusing but I really didn't want to argue with his stepdad, and I'm sure he didn't either because it was obvious that he didn't have time to because he was working. The whole situation was a drag but I came up with the idea that we would just walk back to my house and we would just crash there. He thought it was a good idea so we headed back to my house as soon as we were done eating our snacks and playing a quick round of Black Ops 2. Let me get this straight, boys are stupid. Just the fact that we were teenage boys only makes the situation worse but all the more hilarious. The fact that my mom was away for the weekend was awesome because we could have the whole house to ourselves and be able to do whatever we want. No, we weren't going to throw a party or invite girls over or preform occult rituals in my attic, we were far below the social hierarchy to be able to do things like that. Our idea of a party was ordering pizza and listening to music really loud and singing karaoke. But there was one problem that prevented us from throwing our own awesomtacular baller party...my uncle was still on the couch watching Game of Thrones. "Dude he is probably going to leave soon" said Cody. I chuckled at him and shook my head saying "No he's not he is watching Game of Thrones". "So? he is probably going to get tired and leave." Cody remarked. I believed him, so we decided to wait outside until he was gone. 30 minutes passed, and soon an hour passed and we were freezing our asses off outside waiting for my uncle to leave. "Why the f*** isn't he gone yet? He probably slipped into a comma from eating all my f***ing food." I said. It was too cold outside so I was gonna check and see if my uncle was sleeping or not so we could possibly enter the house and wait for him to leave. I couldn't find anything after creeping around my house, and my uncle was wide awake. We decided that we would just walk into the front door and told him what was up. When we got inside I explained to my uncle what happened and he understood and said he was going to leave soon. 10 minutes past and Cody and I returned to watching videos on Youtube, this time being "Top 10 scariest ghost videos caught on camera". Suddenly, there was a loud knock on the door and someone shouted "Clark County Sheriff!" Cody and I looked at each other frozen in fear. We sneaked out into the hallway where we could hear my uncle talking to the Sheriff about a call he received about my house. "How are you doing tonight sir?" the Sheriff asked. "Good, what do you want? "We got a call from your neighbor telling us that there were two strange men creeping around the house looking for an entrance. We suspect that they were trying to break into the house and we just wanted to make sure everything was alright." My uncle laughed and said "Oh, that was my nephew and his friend hanging out outside." The Sheriff paused and asked "Why would they walk around the yard and try to go through the back door?" "I don't f***ing know they're dumb ass teenagers!" "Yeah I guess so. Goodnight then." the Sheriff said "Yeah whatever." My uncle came in and told us how stupid we were and we had a good laugh for about 5 minutes on how scared we were. Craig left and we ended up watching The Hunger Games. The rest of the night we just talked and eventually passed out. I guess my uncle never told my mom what happened, probably because he forgot the next day. That night I'll always remember, and I'll always remember just stupid teenage boys can be sometimes.
