Madison walked into the appartment with Benji and Joel. Benji sat her on the couch. "When do you think your parents will find out you're with us?" Benji asked.
"I don't care. As long as it isn't soon." She crossed her arms and sat back on the couch.
There was a knock on the door. Joel was in the kitchen. "Not it."
"Not it." Madison grinned, playing along.
Benji sighed and answered the door. "Hey Billy, Paul." He let them in.
"We can't stay. We just need Joel's Pink CD. We have to prove something to Jenni and Kat." Paul shrugged.
"It's not MY CD. It's Tate's. She left it here." Joel defended.
"She said you stole it from her." Billy replied.
Joel blushed and hid in the kitchen again. "I didn't steal it from her. She gave it to me." He grumbled. Madison heard and laughed.
Billy looked at Madison then at Benji. "Man, Benj, you really robbed the cradle."
"Hey!" Madison stopped laughing and huffed.
"I only met her a few hours ago." Benji stated.
Paul smiled at Madison. She tried not to smile back, but she couldn't help it. Who couldn't smile when Paul did? It was contagious.
Benji walked over to the CD stand and grabbed Pink. He handed it to Billy. "Bring it back soon. Joel'll miss it. He listens to it all the time."
"No I don't!" Joel yelled. It sounded like he threw something.
"Temper temper bro." Benji laughed.
Billy laughed. "Tate'll swing by and give it to ya."
"G'night stranger." Paul grinned at Madison.
"I'm Catherine. But you can call me Madison, everyone else does." She smiled.
Paul shook her hand. "Later Madison."
"Bye." Billy said, walking out the door with Paul.
Madison looked into the kitchen. "Pink?"
"It's Tatums CD." Joel came out and sat on the couch. "She left it here."
"Tate's his girl friend. But she's only nineteen." Benji sat next to Madison and turned on the TV.
"So? She acts older." Joel crossed his arms and watched TV.
Madison laughed and leaned her head on Benji's shoulder.
They sat on the couch watching South Park. "...Oh my God. We killed Kenny. WE killed Kenny. We're bastards..."
Tatum came in the door. "Hey guys. I brought your CD back." She tossed it at Joel.
"It's not mine." Joel insisted.
Tatum smiled at Joel and sat on his lap. "I know it's not sweety. You stole it." She pinched his cheek and kissed his nose.
"Stop." He told her.
Madison just sat there and laughed. Tatum looked at her. "Madison?"
"Tate?!" She hugged Tatum. "I haven't seen you since last year."
Benji and Joel looked at each other utterly confused. "You two know each other?" Benji asked.
"Yeah. Madison's my cousin." Tatum smiled.
"Ya know there is a resemblence." Joel commented.
Madison and Tatum sighed. "I hate when people say that." They said.
Benji and Joel laughed. Madison looked at the clock. It read 11:27. "Man, it's late."
"Late?" Tatum asked. "You've become a wuss. Oh no!" She said in mock horror.
Madison yawned and shook her head. "No, tired." She leaned her head on Benji's shoulder and laughed at South Park. She eventually fell asleep.
Benji looked at the sleeping girl on his shoulder. He grinned and picked her up. He carried her to his room and layed her on the bed. Madison opened her eyes. "Where're you goin'?"
"To crash on the couch. Just go to sleep."
Madison sat up and scooted towards the edge of the bed. "No, it's your bed. I'll take the couch."
"No." He insisted.
"Then at least stay here."
Benji sighed. "Only until you fall asleep again." He sat on the bed. "Wait. Put his on." He grabbed a red Social Distortion shirt from his closet and threw it at her. "It'll be more comfortable than your jeans."
She smiled at him. "Thanks," He started to leave the room. "You don't have to leave." She tossed her jeans on the floor at the end of the bed, followed by her shirt. "And, you can turn around now."
Benji looked at her. "That shirt looks a lot better on you than it does on me." He grinned, sitting on the bed.
"Aren't you gonna get comfortable?" She pointed to his bondage pants.
He sighed and stood again. He dropped his pants to the floor and threw off his shirt. "Happy?"
"Very." Madison grinned. "OK, this is prolly gonna sound teeny and shite, but can you hold me? I just feel more comfortable." She looked unsure.
Benji nodded. "Yeah, I can." He turned off the light and wrapped his arms around Madison's waist. She entwined her fingers with his. "G'night."
