Sleep had evaded him yet again; it was starting to become a nuisance. Donnie laid there, in a near cold sweat as he looked up at his dark ceiling. In his tiny apartment, he could hear through the walls. And the one thing he truly didn’t feel like hearing was the young college kids having some sort of orgy. He didn’t know how accurate that assumption was, but he knew that there was a party going on. He got up quickly and headed towards his small kitchen. He looked inside his fridge and found exactly what he had been looking for. His bottle of Jack Daniels, the thing that helped him calm down the most. He knew he shouldn’t be drinking, especially when he’s supposed to be training. But he had fallen to temptation far too many times and now found himself addicted. He hated himself for it too. He knew that his father would disapprove the most out of all of this. He didn’t care though, he needed a drink, and he needed to get drunk. He decided to sit down in his living room; he attempted to turn on his TV, but remembered that he hadn’t paid his cable bill in a while. Sitting there, with no lights on, no TV, he had nothing to really do. He then remembered the party going on next door. He thought about it for a mere moment. He wasn’t sure if it was appropriate for him to just walk on over. He decided to do it anyways, he wasn’t getting any sleep tonight, and it might be fun to party with the college kids. He wasn’t that much older than them, so he was sure he could keep up. Boy was he wrong.
He was almost immediately let in the party and already he could tell it was a bad idea. These college kids were going nuts, having a good time. He took notice of many attractive girls, but saw some things he wasn’t so sure about. At least half of these kids were naked. They were as he thought, having an orgy. He wasn’t sure how he felt about that, it just seemed so strange to him. He looked over to one side of the living room to see two girls having a grand old time all over each other’s naked body. He was ashamed to admit, but he was slowly becoming aroused. The music was loud too, and it wasn’t his kind of taste in music. It was that dubstep kind of shit that he despised. He was so tempted to just leave, but something caught his eye. One young girl was giving him a very seductive look. He couldn’t help but be flattered, and a little bit curious. He knew some women found him attractive because of his build. And this girl just seemed to be taking all of him in. He had to admit, he was slowly starting to become intoxicated drinking in all of her. She was just a beautiful girl, although slightly slutty looking, he didn’t care. He headed towards her, and without warning starting kissing her. She started kissing back as their light kiss became a deep kiss of passion. Suddenly his hands started to tread lower and lower down her body until he found what he was looking for. All of a sudden the door of the apartment came crashing down as cops piled into the small space. All the police officers had serious looks on their faces as they shouted at all the college kids. In that moment, Donnie knew he was doing something terrible. A cop knew this too as he tackled Donnie to the ground and handcuffed him on the spot. The young girl he was just with was crying at this point as he was pulled away viciously. Donnie just lowered his head in shame as he was pulled away from the apartment and on his way to the police station.
As he sat in the cot, waiting for word from anybody as to when he’d be let out, a police officer came to his cell.
Officer: “Trix, you’re being bailed out. Come on.”
Donnie wasn’t sure who to expect to see. He felt even more ashamed of what he did when he saw his father standing at the desk waiting for him. As soon as Toby laid eyes on Donnie, a look of sheer disappointment washed over his face. Donnie couldn’t even look at his father as the whole bail out procedure was taken care of, only speaking when he was supposed to. As they made their way to Toby’s truck from the police station, all Toby could do was glare at his son. As they entered the truck, Donnie immediately buried his face into his hands and couldn’t help but feel disgusted in himself.
Donnie Trix: “I didn’t fucking know! I had a bad feeling the instant I walked into that apartment, but I wanted to have a good time.”
Toby Trix: “I’m not angry at that part; you know what I’m really upset about.”
Donnie did, he knew he was very close to having sex with a minor. He couldn’t believe he allowed himself to fall victim yet again to temptation, but this time of the flesh. The drive home was painfully long as the street lights flashed by in one big blur. Donnie couldn’t focus, he felt too horrible for what he had done. He looked over at his father who just shook his head. Donnie knew he had just disappointed his father more than he could ever imagine. And it all started with one single drink.
