River Jones POV

"Urg!.." I groan as I sit up on whatever bed I am on.

"Why the hell is my head pounding!?" I yelled into the silence, holding onto my head as I tried to find my phone.

11 am. I read once finding my phone as I sighed in relief, Thank god! It's Sunday and I have no work.

"Wait..." I whispered to myself as I remembered the events that caused me to get drunk and behave the way I did...in front of the last person who I wanted to ever see me drunk.

The kiss.

Gala.

Julie's phone call.

Drinks. Too many drinks.

The bathroom.

I look around to find myself in Miss White's guest room, she must have brought me back. And to be honest I don't remember much of what I talked with her.

My gaze fell on the bedside table. A bottle of ibuprofen and water. I took one and felt the pounding decrease only to groan as I buried my face in my hands.

Why did I drink? Why did she have to be the one who found me? What stupid stuff did I say to her? Everything was already awkward after that Kiss...she is going to fire me!

"Wait for a second..." I whispered to myself as I checked my phone again. Yup! Her number is still blocked. She called me from another number, it was intentional, and she lied about having called in unintentionally. With no mood to deal with her, I simply blocked the other number as well.

I freshened up a little so that I didn't look like a zombie before going downstairs. At least I will look okay when she fires me. God! I hope not!

I find her in the living room, sitting on the couch with her laptop. Working no doubt. The women always worked too much.

I cleared my throat, getting her attention as she looked up at me. I gulped as I immediately explained the best I could.

"Miss. White, I am sorry for last night. That was very unprofessional of me. I know I wasn't on duty but what happened shouldn't have happened in any scenario. I received an unfortunate phone call which led to my over-drinking but I understand if you want to fire me." I explain sincerely hoping I don't get fired. It was a stupid mistake that I shouldn't have happened. Our relationship was still professional...overall.

She looked at me with disappointment...I deserved that. My eyes narrowed in confusion as she suddenly groaned, pushing away her laptop.

"Come on Jones! The one time I had the opportunity to tease you, you had to sound all sincere making me feel bad. I am disappointed!" She exclaimed making me confused as my brain froze, not processing what she was saying.

"Huh? So, you are not going to fire me?" I ask, still stupefied.

"No stupid! I was going to tease you by pretending to fire you but that's down the drain!" She said with a pout as she stood up.

"Oh. Right. I am sorry I suppose?" I replied still a little out of it. She only rolled her eyes as she started walking toward the kitchen.

"Thanks and sorry again for the trouble..." I replied once my brain caught up with everything. She turned around and she looked at me with a small smile.

"It was no trouble, Jones. Don't worry about it, plus it was kinda cute watching you drunk..." She trailed off before a smirk appeared on her face but she didn't say anything.

I mentally shrugged. "Ok...don't mind me I am going to raid your kitchen!" I said with a smile as I took a step forward only for her to stop me with a huff as she crossed her hands across her chest.

"I have made breakfast for you too. Don't you dare eat anything else..., especially my chips." She said with a glare.

I smiled sheepishly and nodded before I took a few more steps forward when she stopped me again.

"Oh! And by the way Jones?" She said with a smirk.

"Yes?"

"I don't have any problem that you have a dick! It's kind of hot! Just thought you should know...now that you are sober and will remember this." She finished winking at me before instantly rushing toward the kitchen out of sight, leaving me with my jaw on the floor and my cheeks red like a tomato.

MY STUPID DRUNK SELF!

WHY THE HELL DID I TELL HER THAT!?

I huffed before I finally made it to the kitchen.

As I was eating I remembered something else, the kiss. We need to talk about that too. I gulped and shook my head to myself.
