Morning light streamed in as I slowly woke up. With my eyes still sealed shut, I turned my head to block out the light, causing an instant sharp pain to shoot through my throbbing head. My hands flew up, grabbing at my temples. I groaned, forcing my lips to part and hating the way my throat felt like a desert. 

Mother of Hades, what happened last night?

I slowly opened my eyes, squinting briefly to adjust to the light that was shining all too bright. Looking around the room, I froze. I wasn't in my dorm. I quickly lifted the blanket, glancing underneath to see my clothes were still on me. I breathed a sigh of relief before surveying my surroundings once more.

Neatly tucked navy bedspread on the bed across from me. Led Zepplin poster. A framed record....

My anxiety eased as I realized I was in Aaron and Liam's dorm.

Wait...Liam! Oh. My. God.

I groaned as flashbacks from the night started replaying in my mind as I briefly remembered stripping out of Liam's shirt to being thrown over his shoulder. I remembered getting in his car and then...

Oh god, I called him a sex god, didn't I?

I covered my face with my hands and cursed. The night had so many holes I wasn't sure if I wanted to piece it all together or not. Considering the pieces I did remember, it was probably best I didn't.

I slowly sat up, noticing a glass of water and a Tylenol on the nightstand. I looked over to Liam's side and inspected it, examining every piece of his belongings as if they would suddenly reveal those pieces of himself that he was so determined on hiding.

I couldn't seem to connect the two Liam's-- the one who was cold and aloof, and the one who would leave me medicine and water after making sure I got home safe. I found myself wondering where this new side of him came from, and if just how he had forgotten me, he had also forgotten himself.

Sighing, I grabbed the pill, popping it in my mouth before gulping down the water. I stood up and looked around for my boots, spotting them at the end of the bed. I slipped them on before pulling my foot back out when I stepped on something hard. I reached inside the boot, fishing out my phone. I had completely forgotten I had placed it there for safe keeping. I hit the button only to see it was dead.

Great. Looks like I'll be getting my exercise this morning.

Luckily, the girl's dorms wasn't a far walk, but my attire didn't exactly scream innocent night out thanks to the wonderful world of themed college parties. Which reminded me...

I'm still wearing Liam's shirt.

"Way to go Maddie! Wonderful situation you have found yourself in." Looking down at the shirt, I groaned. "Savannah, your fricken cheesecake better be better than life itself after this!" Unable to do anything else at that point and in a hurry to leave before Liam or Aaron showed up, I made my way to the door and stepped out.
