Water wasn’t the easiest, nor most kind way to wake up a dear friend the morning after his 21st birthday but Riley could not resist. His friend had had a free pass last night and was able to live the life of a king. Despite the fact that Scott had been sleeping on the couch with no blanket or pillow other than the seat cushions, he was fast asleep due to the drunken stupor he had worked himself into the previous night. The bucket of water was not welcomed and Riley did feel a little remorse but they needed to get up, Riley had awoken much earlier than Scott and was able to survey the previous nights damage to the hotel room. “This is not good” Riley thought. The room was completely decimated. The bed had somehow been broken in half, the mini bar was completely empty, not one light bulb was left in tact, and the TV was missing. Bottom line: the boys needed to leave pronto. After the initial, “what the hell” reaction from Scott, Riley addresses the situation. Not much explanation is needed after a quick look at the drunken destruction apparently caused by the two revelers. “Ok I just need to piss then we will get going” Scott said. “I don’t know how the hell we are going to get away with not paying for all this” Riley yelled to Scott as he was in the bathroom. Scott screamed, “I found the tv! What its doing in the bathtub I haven’t the faintest idea!” The laughter quickly stopped as Riley felt a puddle beneath his foot. It lead to the toilet room. As the two friends opened the door they could barely hold back a scream. She looked like she had been there for a while. A woman no older than 21. Blood trickled down her check as if she were crying crimson tears. “Oh my god, oh my god” Riley yelled, “what the hell is that?” The boys were dumbfounded. They woke up with a dead woman in a bathroom and the room itself looked like a tornado had run through it. Scott asked, “did…did we do this?” “No way man” Riley blurted out almost completely interrupting Scott, “there is no chance in hell we did this.” “There is a dead woman in the bathroom” screamed Scott, “what the hell are we going to do?!” Sweat started to pour down the boys faces, Scott was on the verge of tears. Could they have murdered this woman in a drunken rage? Did she do this to herself after they had taken her home? There were far too many possible answers to this horrible question. BANG BANG. There was a knocking at the door. Not so much as a knock but it sounded as if the door had owed someone a large amount of money. After the initial assault of fists on the door a man screamed for the boys to open the door. They looked at each other contemplating their possible future in a penitentiary if they had indeed murdered this woman. The boys could not move, not one inch. They regretted the day they ever thought of coming up to Las Vegas looking for a good time. BANG BANG. The cops wanted in now! Riley looked toward the window. It was their only chance. Should he tell Scott the plan or just make a break for the window? Due to his hesitation he never did reach an answer. The door was broken down. The boys were thrown onto their stomachs, cuffs strapped to their wrists. In a daze Scott looked at a piece of stationary lying next to his face. “Hyatt” is what he was able to make out. He remembered being given a key to the Mirage at the beginning of the trip. Depending on how you look at it, a whole new issue arose for the two newly christened 21 year olds, this wasn’t their hotel room.
