Too Much Of A Good Thing

Brooke's chilling in the living room, scrolling on her laptop, when Sera blows through like she owns the night in her tiny little outfit. Brooke intercepts her, says they need to talk. Sera rolls her eyes but stays put, tapping her foot. Brooke tells her she's worried, that since Sera turned 18 she's been club-hopping like it's her job. Sera smirks, says Brooke's overreacting, then bounces out the door. The second she's gone, Brooke shakes her head, more stressed than before. Later she hits up parenting forums. One post catches her eye: let someone drown in their bad habit, they'll burn out. A grin slides across her face. The plan's already forming. Next afternoon she finds Sera and drops the act. She leans in, flirts hard. Sera stares, asks why Brooke flipped so fast. Brooke shrugs it off, claims she got too strict, wants to make up for it. Sera's sold in ten seconds flat and they're already tangled on the couch.
