The Cooler Stonem

 Sounds frosty. 

Yeah but everyone has to do it at least once in their life.

 Funny.

I thought so

 Pretty shit. I don’t like it there. No one trusts me after— you know.

Yeah, I wonder why they don't trust you

 Not sitting on my arse. I’ve been working in a bank, you know.

Oh? Is that so? How's that going for you?

 At least you’re doing something productive.

How's sitting on your ass sis?

 Love is the most powerful thing, I’m not sure I’m ready to let someone have a hold over me like that. His daughter is wonderful, beautiful little girl, truly. I just wish I was one hundred percent sure that he didn’t just get her back because I am here.

Loves not holding something over someone.....He's been talking for months about getting her back, i I were you I'd be proud that I drove him to do something he didn't have the drive to do before....

 Oh right. How’s that going?

Pretty good if you ask me..

 If you’re paying.

Karen... Where've you been?

 Then that just means this party has to be on top of everybody’s priorities. We’re dealing with a fuckin’ epidemic of angst, and that will just not do.

As long as we go threw with it...

 I feel like there needs to be a party or something to whip this place back to shape before people actually consider their teenage mediocrity as a midlife crisis.  

I think we've reached that point already honestly...

 He said what?

Nothing bad.... He seems to really like you.. Maybe more... Like love? I mean it took him this long to get his daughter, then you show up, and bam, he makes a trip back him and brings her here, seems like dedication if you ask me.

 I think so. People are talking?

Yeah... He has....

She can get over it. I bet, I really wouldn't be able to deal with it...

 Right, makes complete sense. For moment there I thought you and I.. No he’s not, I’m just staying here for a while. He’s quite the gentleman.

Yup. Ha, no I have to fix things with my girlfriend so no sleeping with other people...  Bummer, I think you two would be a good fit. So I've heard...

 Tony.. What are you doing here?

Mitch is helping me look for a place to store my bike... He the one you engaged to? Damn didn't know you liked the big bad biker type.
