Justin had never been good at cards. He had been good at pretending he was good at cards, but in reality Justin was just really lucky when it came to picking up aces, kings and queens. He also was particularly good at holding his wine and unless they happened to be drinking beer, he could usually stay sober a whole lot longer than Ernie. When Ernie got smashed, it made it even easier to convince him he had to look at his cards and see if they had any pairs. Not like they really played cards anyway. Usually the just used cards as an excuse to actually just hang out and talk. Guy's always needed an excuse for that. Well, Justin and Ernie usually didn't really worry too much about it. But, when a whole bunch of them got together, it was like they needed some sort of manly activity between them as an excuse. Justin really didn't care all that much. He heard the buzzer and walked over to buzz Ernie in.
He waited till Ernie knocked on the front door, before he opened it up and greeted his mate with a hug. "I've got you a present. It was that hug, so I hope it will keep you warm for awhile, I don't just pass them out all the time." It was easy to joke around with Ernie. Whenever or not he appreciated the jokes or not.
