Thank you to Petra, who I share a brain with, who helped me with some ideas for this story. *hugs her* And bmegirlone for some of her ingenious ideas too! And anyone else who gives me some ideas if I've forgotten you I'm sorry! Complain if you like. :)

It was very quiet day. Brad was sitting at home feeling pretty bored and frustrated. He'd made three tuna sandwiches and eaten them all in the space of half an hour, watched Holy Grail and played some playstation the rest of the time.
"I know.. I'll give Mike a call and see what he's up to!" He said out loud to himself. He grabbed the phone and dialled Mike's number and waited.
"Hey this is Mike." He answered.
"Hey its Brad. I'm fuckin' bored. What are you up to? Wanna do something?" He asked. Mike laughed.
"You're fuckin' bored hey? Well you are welcome to come round if you feel like it. I'm baking biscuits currently." He replied. Brad hummed and then groaned.
"Yeah I spose.. Alright, I'll be round in 5 minutes. Want me to bring anything?"
"Um..." He thought for a moment. "Yeah, bring a wiener and your toothbrush."
"What do you want them for?" Brad asked inquisitively.
"Well, the wiener cos I'm hungry and toothbrush...well you never know when you'll need your toothbrush." Mike replied.
"Oh ok, fair enough. I'll bring them. I'll even bring a spoon."
So that was organised. Brad gathered a wiener, his toothbrush, and a spoon and left for Mike's.
-----
On arrival at Mike's he saw Rob's car out the front. 'Hmm... wonder if Rob brought anything.' Brad thought to himself.
He walked up to the door and knocked lightly. Mike answered the door wearing a purple apron. "Hey man! Come on in. Rob's here. He's helping me bake the biscuits."
"Cool man. Did he bring anything?" Brad asked as they walked into the house. He was greeted by Incubus music playing on the stereo.
"Yeah he brought a tampon and a popsicle stick." He replied as they entered the kitchen. Rob was sitting on a stool by the kitchen bench with a beanie on his head and the tampon hanging over his ear.
"Hey dude." He said giving Brad a high five. Brad sat on the stool the other side of the bench and put his things down. Mike went back to the bowl he was mixing the biscuit mixture in and started putting little dollops of mixture onto a baking tray.
"So what kind of biscuits are they?" Brad asked Mike.
"They're peanut and vegemite* flavoured." Rob answered instead. Brad screwed up his nose.
(* vegemite is a spread we have in Australia thats like.... black and salty and... sounds gross but its nice...but in a biscuit with peanuts..... ew!)
"What the fuck made you think of making biscuits like that? Thats ridiculous!" Brad exclaimed and threw the wiener across the room.
"Hey I wanted to eat that!" Mike cried out and picked up the wiener. "Its all good... I can still eat it." He said and dusted the wiener off.
They sat chatting for a few minutes while Mike put the rest of the mixture into biscuit sized dollops on the baking tray and slid the tray into the oven.
"Done! So what should we do now boys?" He asked as he took off his purple apron and picked up Brad's spoon and played with it.
"I dunno... what's Chester up to?" Rob thought out loud. The others wondered that too so they gave him a call.
"Sup, Mike?" Chester answered his mobile.
"Not much Chester! I've got Rob and Brad here and we're bored. Want to come round?" He said. Chester yelled something to someone in the background and then finally answered.
"Yeah sounds good, man. Got Joe and Dave here... Joe's chasing after some frogs in my pond.. I'll peel him away from the frogs and be over there soon, ok?" He told Mike.
"Sure thing. See you soon." Mike said and hung up.
"What did he say?" Brad asked as he brushed his teeth. "By the way... you were right about the toothbrush."
"Said he, Joe and Dave will be here soon. Meanwhile, lets eat some dry pasta. You up for that?" He asked the other two. They nodded drearily and then started a Star Wars saber fight with the toothbrush and popsicle stick.
*poor boys, so bored.. wonder what they'll get up to...*
