Our Flame

NADIA

I curse as I look down at a sleeping Tessa next to me, I don't regret our actions last night. I had fun. I regret that I only had one hour of sleep and now feel like I'll throw up.

Never drinking again.

"Headache." Tessa mumbles. I let out a small chuckle. "My parents are so going to kill me." She groans.

"Shit Luka and Niko." I remember. I get out of the random bed, in attempt to find my clothes. "Shit." Tessa curses as she looks at her phone.

"That bad?" I joke still looking for my outfit. "It's almost eight." She tells me as she searches for her clothes.

I give up on finding my clothes as I throw on a shirt Tessa hands me. I groan as the shirt barely goes down, I sigh in relief as I find Luka's leather jacket that he gave me.

"I lost my wings." Tessa pouts, cute. "Still a very pretty fairy." I say as she walks closer to me. "Really." She whispers as our faces are inches apart.

I lean into the kiss as our lips meet, it was slow but felt so quick as we pulled away. "We'll never see each other again."

I know that and maybe that's for the best. I'm getting married soon and I have no clue what Tessa plans to do.

"I know." I finally respond. Tessa gives me a soft smile. "Come on." She tells me. Together we walk back to where the party originally was as I attempt to stretch out the shirt.

"Tess, I was worried sick!" Tessa's sister yells.

I give a sheepish smile as Luka and Niko stare at me. I mouth them a quick 'sorry' turning to Tessa.

"This is the end." Tessa turns to me. "I wish you the best with going back to school." She adds. I smile forgetting I told her.

"Bye Tessa." I wave to her as her sister practically drags her away. "How was your guy's night?" I turn back to my brothers.

"Some girl threw up on my shoes, come on." Luka crosses his arms. "I see you had a good night." Niko points to my neck. "Shut up." I mumble.

"Guys my head hurts." I groan as the sun hits my eyes. "Here." Niko throws me some sunglasses. "And I have no pants on." I continue to pull down the shirt.

"Can't help you with that one- Niko is cut off as Luka throws me a pair of sweatpants out of the back of his car. 

"Thanks." I grumble. They both turn around letting me put on the pants in peace. I walk past both of them getting in the car.

"They're calling." Luka groans, holding up his phone. I shush Luka. Niko chuckles, "How much did you drink?" Niko questions.

It started at four drinks, then Tessa and I went back to drink a little more then do a little more with each other.

I honestly lost track of how much I drank.

I shrug, "Get in the car Nadia." Luka chuckles as he opens my door for me. "Am I going to die?"

Both of my brothers laugh but I'm dead serious, no pun intended. "No Nadia, you're just hungover."
