Aaliyah's POV
I love it when you wake up first before everyone else in your household. The silence is so peaceful almost as if they're dead, you get praised with the fresh air gliding through your room with the sun. But these are moments you must treasure as on this morning I did not get to feel that enjoyment. Actually, it's quite the complete opposite of that.

I hear stomping coming from the corridors beside my bedroom. I am actually quite pleased I can call a room mine. The truth is I don't have a real home, but my best friend invited me to live with her 4 years ago when we started our first year.

She felt sympathetic to me when I first admitted to her my parents had disappeared on me after leaving me. She still truly is, so are her parents and brother. When she told them they immediately told me to stay with them. And so I agreed to do so after rejecting them a few too many times.

"Shut up and finish packing for fuck sake" a frustrated voice roared almost vibrating through the house, I sigh knowing that any second I will be facing that devil. "At least I have a real hairline" a deeper voice doomed through the corridor making me giggle.

"ALLIYAH YOU BETTER NOT BE LAUGHING" the woman screeches pushing through my door almost braking them. I quickly fall back down hoping not to be seen, " I know you're awake you lazy bitch" she draws open my curtains revealing my blindness.

"Yeah after you woke me up, angry bird" I smirked knowing how much that pisses her off when I call her that. I peek over to Gray who's almost pissing himself from Ethel's reaction.

"Oh so this is how you repay me after spending £300 on all those drinks you had yesterday, KNOWING YOU HAD NO MONEY ON YOU. RELYING ON THAT ONE PHONE CALL TO ME TO SAVE YOUR DRUGGY ASS." She shouts at me whilst looking through my draws.

"You fucking did what" Gray officially walks in my room, "you told me she felt SICK, NOT DRUNK" he faces Ethel.

"As if you would actually care, to be honest no one would want to have a brother like you, who couldn't care less" she snaps back to him.

"Ethel what are you looking for?" I get out of bed stumbling onto the hard carpet floor, you would think these would be more softer to land on.

"What the fuck Aaliyah" he helps me up sitting me up back on my bed, "don't tell me you're still drunk". I burst out laughing at his comment, but to no ones surprise he was right.

"Well i'm sure you guys have heard that if you have a shit hang over, you should just drink more soooooo I tried it" I smiled innocently at Gray who looked unimpressed.

"You could have at least tried mango" he mumbled whilst covering me in a blanket, "you're shivering" he says walking towards the window closing it.

"Its 6am already if were going to be late its all on you", Ethel comments whilst still searching for something.

"You guys are the teensiest over dramatic, like for example babies" I speak whilst getting a cigarette and lighter from my bedside table.

Gray turns back around facing me, who's lighting the cigarette up from my mouth, his mouth dropped to got damn fast. Ethel runs up to me trying to swipe the cig from my hand.

"This is exactly what I mean, you guys should be the ones who should loosen up a bit, Ethel you're trying to steal my cig when you're asked me for some before, and Gray you smoke yourself" I roll my eyes sitting in the corner of my bed.

"Why do you talk so much when you're drunk Dawn" he walks over to me in his stripped pyjama trousers and abs on show. Fuck, he looks amazing.
