“Adam! Hey! Adam!” I hollered, my shouts reverberating against the buildings of the empty downtown street. It was late. Probably 2am. I had been out with a few friends and was on my way home, when I saw my friend Adam, also walking home. Catching notice of my calling his name out, he turned and faced me, then smiled crookedly. I could tell he was a little drunk. I finally caught up to him.

“What were you up to tonight?” I asked, smelling the tequila on his breath.

“Party…Sarah’s…had a lot to drink…twins.” He barely managed to muster that half-sentence together.

“Twins eh? I bet that was fun!” I laughed, with a wink. I slapped him on the shoulder and then we began our walk back to our neighborhood. Taking a cab would have been an option, but it was summer, so why not walk? Besides, I never really saw Adam anymore, ever since his parents decided to put him in a private school, so some quality time was appreciated. We had been the closest of friends, but it was hard to maintain when we didn’t spend as much time together. The occasional weekend of video games helped though.
