May arrived an hour early she didn't even bother changing. These were her friends, they weren't going to a club or anything and most of them were already getting off of work by then. Joining Rita and a now well rested Mickey inside, the three spent some more time checking up especially with mickey, since she lived in California for some time now.

"I was going to marry them one day." Mickey said after talking about the new home that she was now left with by her ex, Ari, a few months back. It was like hell had broken loose when Mickey announce it. She was the last non single couple after May and they were actually tied by their friends to get married first during their best friend outing. "And that motherfucker just packs up and leaves!" May and Rita listen, sad for their friend when the door bell rings.

"About damn time." May says out loud as she gets up to open the door. There stood Kat, Makayla and Nini all huddled together from the cold. "Hey! Get in here it's brick outside." She guilds them in then shouting the door quickly.

For the rest of the evening the group of friends ordered as much take out and chatted as it began to reach 12. They were completely wasted and heavily suffered from the itis. Kat was asleep like a baby in Rita's arms on the big cushion, covered in blankets they were gone and dead to the world.

Makayla, Nini, Mickey kinda slept on top of each other on the sofa, also leaving their existence behind. The only one left who seemed now not only the most drunk but very emotional, she was silently crying to herself watching the movie ending scene of 'Marley & Me' after torturing herself with 'The Bodyguard'.

Seeing the goodbyes and loss of love brought May to a state she never thought she would go to after so long. As eyes flowed from her eyes as she clutched one of the cushions she daps a crumbled up paper on her eye.

"Ow! Fuck!" The tough and sharpness of the edges poke her eye causesing her to focus on it. It looked familiar. She opened it up and realize it was the singles paper her and Rita were taking talk about. How it ended up with her no idea, same with why it was crumbled up in the first place. She opened it up reading it over. In the end her eyes are glued to the link to register.

After what seemed like hours she makes her decision. She gets up from her chair to Rita's computer, types in the link below and starts to fill out the application. The questions were simple: Name, age, date, address, occupation; that good stuff. Nothing about liked a scam to be honest. But May was too drunk to care. She clicks submit. And just like that she became dead to the world too.

The next day was hectic.

Understand now that today was Tuesday, a work day, a have to be a work at 8-10 am kind of day. The drunk and hang over girls all woke up almost the exact same time. 12 pm.

"Son of a bitch!" Nini yelled hitting her toe on door to the bathroom. "Oh this hurts!" Hung over she couldn't stand any longer and falls on her butt holding her toe. This woke everyone up fully and curse when they looked at the time.

"We really fucked up." Kat said looking dazed at the clock. "Oh well." She lays back down on the couch with not a care in the world. May woke up on the kitchen floor curled in a ball. Her eye sight fuzzy from putting her glasses god knows where. She sits up taking in her surroundings.

"Oh no, my boss has been calling!" Makayla freaks out a bit, strolling through her phone.

Rita checks her phone too, seeing a few miss calls from her manager and few colleagues, too tired to answer, plus not being able to see properly, she tosses the phone somewhere and gets up slowly to go into the kitchen where she finds May in the floor. She's sees her face and she smiles because the sleep must have been good to make skin prints of the tiled floor she had on the cheeks and arms.
