They had stayed up until the early morning drinking, singing, and dancing. They had a blast this is the first time Crystal has let loose since she and Jordan got married when she was only eighteen. 

Crystal opened her eyes very slowly. She felt like she had been hit by a train and everything was blurry. She looked around the room and she was on the couch. 

She saw Andi and Chance on the floor sprawled out and Skye was passed out beside the tv stand. Crystal slowly sat up. She reached for her phone as it was ringing.

"Hello." She answered with a raspy voice.

"Good morning, beautiful."

"Hey, good morning, babe. Can you lower your voice? I don't know why you are yelling at me."

Jordan laughed, "baby, I am not yelling but I will lower my voice. Is this better?"

"Yes, much better."

"So, I am taking it that you girls had fun and you now have a very bad hangover."

Crystal looks around the room and sees multiple empty bottles of liquor on the floor. "We had a lot of fun maybe too much fun. Oh, damn baby I haven't felt like this since actually ever."

"Is it worse than the 2013 cruise, because you were pretty hungover that night?"

"Way worse. My eyes are blurry, my head is killing me to move, and I feel like I have been run over by a train."

"Oh, baby girl. Where are the other girls?"   

"Still passed out, Andi and Chance are on the floor by the coffee table and Skye is passed out by the tv stand."

"Oh, wow, it sounds like you guys had a rough night. I am sorry you are feeling so rough, baby. Listen me and Vic are going to swing by a Mexican restaurant. I will pick you and the other ladies up some tacos, some aspirin, and some water to help with your hangover. We will be there in about thirty minutes."

"Thank you, babe. You are so good to me. I will love you forever if you can make this feeling go away. Get a lot of tacos and you and Vic can join us."

"I already thought you were going to love me forever when you married me?"

"You know what I mean."

"Yes, I am just joking. You are my wife and it is my job to take care of you and your friends so no thanks are needed. I love you, Crystal."

"I love you, Jordan."

"Alright, see you soon, love. Bye, sweetheart."

"See you soon, babe, bye."

She hung up the phone just as Skye started moving around moaning. "Oh my goodness, everything hurts. Crystal are you awake?"

"Yes, I am and I know exactly what you mean. Thankfully I have a great husband who is on his way with tacos, aspirin, and water for us."

"Tacos? There is no way I can even think about food right now." She looks around at the bottles all over the floor. "Damn, we partied hard last night."

"Girl, trust me Tacos are the cure you never knew you needed. I had no idea either until I got drunk and Donnie got me some. I felt so much better after eating them. I need a shower but I think I am going to wait for J and Vic to get rid of this headache."

Skye slowly walks over to the couch and lays her head on Crystal's shoulder. They are sitting like this when someone knocks on the door. Skye pushes a button on her phone and yells, "it's unlocked."

Jordan and Vic walk in slowly and both start laughing at the scene they see. Andi and Chance are on the floor with their mouths wide open, Crystal and Skye are sitting on the couch cuddled together, and all the empty bottles are on the floor.
