I woke up immediately feeling the headache pound against my skull. I slowly opened my eyes, rubbing them with the heels of my hands. I scanned the room, nothing looked very familiar... I looked around myself to find a person asleep next to me, face down so I have no clue who they were... My shirt was hanging off the lamp on the other side of the room and my strapless bra was on the floor, my pants were wrapped in the sheets and I quickly realized I'd made a massive mistake last night. Who the fuck was I in bed with.

I pulled my clothes on, and then attempted to wake the person in the bed. He stirred a little, and then rolled over and I swear I could've died... Last night I slept with Jon. I took a couple deep breaths, and made my way quickly out of the room.

I left the house, thankful to have not run into any other people on m way out and quickly tried to figure out how I got home from this part of the city. I pulled out my package of cigarettes and sighed, last one. I lit it, and started walking towards the corner store a few houses down from where I'd spent the night.

I bought a new pack of cigarettes and got directions back to my house from the guy in the store. Of course though, once I stepped outside the store, Ben and Aaron were standing there. I couldn't get away from them!

"Good morning." Aaron smiled at me, as I pulled another cigarette out, lighting it and sticking it in my mouth.

"Morning." I replied, exhaling the smoke.

"You look rough." Ben said quietly, staring at his shoes.

"Wow, thanks! You know just how to make a girl feel special!" I said sarcastically. "Of course I look fucking rough, I'm hungover as fuck, made a massive mistake and now I have to find my way home."

"What did you do that qualifies as a massive mistake?" Aaron asked, leaning against the building beside me.

"I don't want to talk about it." I told him, staring at my shoes.

"Well, it can't be that bad." Aaron smiled at me, while I took another drag of my cigarette.

"I need to get high." I sighed.

"What?" Ben and Aaron both asked, sounding shocked.

"I didn't mean to say that out loud..." I sighed. "Oh well, Lindsay's boyfriend will probably have something..."

"Since when do you get high?" Ben asked.

"Since I lost everything and decided why not smoke weed? What's the worst that'll happen?" I snapped at him. "Why are you even talking to me?"

"Devon, we've been friends for years..." Ben trailed off.

"We haven't talked in over a year." I rolled my eyes.

"I still care about you..." He sighed.

"I do too." Aaron smiled at me.

And that's when it clicked... Aaron's always been there, it's always been Aaron. Aaron took me to all my doctors appointments, and he was there even when Jon left and he was there when he knew what I did... Aaron's the only person who's always there for me....
