Messed Up

Mellissa

I woke up early enough to know I had slept a lot. I grabbed my phone I had placed on the nightstand to check the time. It was eight o'clock and I hadn't known how the party had ended. I couldn't find Liz in my room, of which she had planned to sleep over.

The sun was still forcing it's way inside the room though this time, it was calmer.

I force myself to sit up on the bed and head towards the washroom to have a makeover. I have the longest shower I had missed in months. I brush my hair, packing it into a bun.

I place on the lightest summer dress I could find in my closet. I hadn't had any plans for the day, so I decided to go watch TV.

As I walk out my room, I face a dirty hallway, of which was filled with red cups and some bags of chips.
My mouth fell agape before I pushed it back to it's normal position. I clenched my fists and walked towards Greg's room.

"Greg! Open up!" I shouted as I banged on the door loudly. 

To say I was messed up would be a complete understatement. I had had a goodnight sleep, and this, this was just messing up my morning.

"Sap!" Greg said once he opened up his door. He had some bags under his dark brown eyes. His skin was as pale as it has always been,though this time, he had some lipstick on his neck.

"What..Are...You..Doing?" I emphasized as I furrowed my eyebrows once I spotted a tall dark skinned girl in a bikini, laying on his bed.

"The hell Greg? You brought in girls!" I hissed at him, though he smirked at me.

He smirked. Great.

"Some slack! Please?" He said before he slammed the door shut on my face.

I clenched my fists once more (figured it was something I would do to calm my mind. Awkward right..)  and headed to the kitchen t have some breakfast before I could start on my apparently plans for the day.

I had prepared bread toast and eggs, with a glass of apple juice. That just made my morning.

I suddenly hear a groan coming from the other side of the living room. I get so curious that I walk slowly towards them.

To my amusement, it's Jay, Liz and Drake. They are all laying down, Liz and Drake cuddled up, except Jay, who slept holding his red cap.

  Well, seems I have some company.

"Morning!" I say softly into Jay's ear.

It takes a second for him to digest and respond to what I said. He slowly tilts his head towards my direction and we lock eyes. His emeralds are a bit dark in the morning. And that just makes it sweeter.

"My love!" He says as he leans in for us to kiss. I pull away as I slap his broad chest.

"Eww!" I say with disgust, gesturing towards the empty red cup that he just dropped on the floor.

"Hey lisa.!" I hear Liz say with a yawn escaping her mouth.

"You have a lot to explain after the shower." I say, a serious look finding it's way onto  my face. Liz looks a bit confused as she ignores me and wakes Drake up.

"Oh shit!" Drake curses. " I have to leave! I'm late for work."

"Wait, you work?" Jay and I say in unison. 

"Yeah. I just got the job. I'll explain later." He pecks Liz and rushes to the door.

    *******
Everything had gone quite well since we had started the clean up. It was totally creepy at first to find a bra in one of the lasagna boxes, but when Jay found another in the fridge, I swore never to host a party again.

"Guess we're done." Jay says, cleaning up his sweat with a towel. "I'll go have a shower." He states before he rushes to my room.

"I have a hangover!" Liz says as she taps her head. I pull her into a hug, something I found myself doing.

     ********
We had watched the movie halfway through before my eyes started to force themselves to close. I held my phone from the nightstand to check the time. It was forty five past one in the morning.

And clearly, that was past my bedtime. I shifted my gaze to Liz, who had been eating the popcorn through out. Jay had been holding my hand  for a while now, and that genuinely felt cute.

To watch The fault in our Stars had been Jay's idea, though I found it quite nugging. I didn't know he loved romantic movies. Maybe  it was because I was with him.

"Aww!" I hear Liz say as she shoves a few popcorns on her mouth.

I place my head onto Jay's shoulder to have some sleep. I couldn't bare the struggle of my eyes.  I suddenly feel Jay's lips touch my forehead in a gentle but sweet way, I smiled.
