“Caitlin where have you been?” Jim demands.

“I went for a walk,” Caitlin says.

“At 2:30 in the morning. You’re going to have to up with a better excuse than that.” Jim tells her.

“I couldn’t sleep so I decided to go for a walk,” Caitlin says coolly.

“We’ll talk about this more in the morning. Go to bed, because there is no way your staying home tomorrow.” Jim says in his most authoritative voice.

“Whatever,” Caitlin mumbles as she goes to her room. She falls asleep as soon as she hits the bed.

“Beep, Beep, Beep,” the alarm clock drowns.

“I that thing so much.” Caitlin mutters as she pulls herself of the bed. She turns off the alarm, and tries to decide what she is going to wear. Clothes are scattered all over the room. She finds a clean pair of black pants on the floor, she keeps searching until she finds the perfect shirt. Finally she decides on a white tank top with a star made out of metal studs. She goes down stairs. Jim is making coffee.

“We need to talk,” he tells her.

“Fine. Let’s talk.” Caitlin says.

“Where were you last night?” He asks.

“I told you, I went for a walk.”

“Well, if that’s the case I’m telling you’re grounded.” Jim says.

“For how long?” Caitlin blurts out.

“Until I say so,” Jim tells her.

“Uh, Jim?” Caitlin asks. “I have something to tell you.”

“Go ahead.”

“Well, actually I have a few things to tell you. You know how I was sick yesterday?”

“Yes.” Jim answers looking confused.

“I wasn’t really sick. What I mean is, I was hung over. I went to a party and got drunk, which was a mistake.” Caitlin says.

“You’re right it was a mistake. Caitlin you know better than to do something like that.” Jim starts to lecture.

“Just wait until I’m done then you can talk or yell all you want. Last night I did go for a walk, but it was to meet Will. I told him that I couldn’t go to parties anymore.”

“Caitlin you’re grounded for at least six months, and when Dori gets home we all need to talk.” Jim tells her.

Caitlin gets up to go back upstairs.

“And Caitlin…” Jim says.

Caitlin turns around and looks at Jim.

He continues “I’m glad you were honest and told me what you did wrong.”

“You know what? I’m happy I told you too.” Caitlin says.

The End!

Sorry it’s so short, but I ran out of ideas. Maybe I’ll write another story soon. Until then keep reading anything and everything :-)
