I know it's probably really badly written but i just want to say thank you for reading. I'll admit the last chapter kind of sucks so I'm sorry. I'll really try for this chapter so yeah. Thanks for reading. The 10 of you :)

Ow. Why does my head hurt so bad? I slowly sit up. Where am I? I look around, woah. There's beer everywhere.

Ugh I feel like I'm gonna throw up. Why did I do this? I wasn't suppose to get drunk?

I haven't gotten drunk in so long. I look around the room. I know absolutely no one. I look where I'm sleeping. And I'm not alone.

I'm such a horrible person. I don't even remember they guy who I'm in bed with.

"Oh my god" i whispered " what have I done?"

Flashback

It's all I had to drown out the pain. It's the only thing that helped. I chug more of the toxic drink. My dad would be yelling at me right now. Scolding me for how low I've come. Resulting to this.

I chug some more. Letting go. I scream at the top of my lungs. I grab the bottle throwing it at the wall screaming. I sob. I scream. I drink. I pound. I cry. " WHY?!" I scream throwing his plants at the wall. Throwing all the photos all the flowers and " I'm sorry for your loss " cards. Dirt and glass covering the floor.

I run out the door screaming. It's pouring, but I don't care.

I cry. Soaking wet. I look back at the house. Their house. I cry holding myself, hoping I could push myself back together.

" what have I done?" I whisper to myself as tears run down my face.

End of flashback

---------

I try to shake these thoughts away. That was then. I'm fine now.

First I need to get out of this bed. And find my friends and my phone so we can leave. What happened last night?

I try getting out quietly. How awkward would that be waking one of these people up. I grab the sheets and slowly move one leg after the other

I then hop out of the bed. Yeah I'm a ninja. I check my pockets for my phone and of course it wasn't there.

" Dammit." How'd I lose my phone? I look around the room, on the ground. On the bed. On the night stand? I walk over to the other side of the bed.

And there it was. Oh thank god. I walk over there careful not to trip on anything. And grab it. Yes.

I check the time. 11:46. I unlock my phone and send Brandy, Jo and Callie all the same text.

" What the hell happened last night?"

_____________________

Once I found Brandy Jo and Callie we all got ready and left around 1 o'clock. We are currently in the car. And I'm so glad to get home.

I don't know what happened yesterday but-

" Scarlett, last night was insane! I've never seen you like that. " Callie told me

" Yeah Scarr, you went all out, you actually had fun last night." Jo said

" Yeah well it'd be more fun if I actually wasn't drunk and remember what I was doing."

" Yeah no more parties for you." Brandy laughed

" And I missed class today. Crap guys." I said

" Scarlett chill we all did." Brandy said

I roll my eyes. I'm so annoyed with them. I mean they let me get drunk and make a fool of myself.

I just take a deep breath and look out my window. I really need some sleep.

------

I eventually got home around 3 but slept until about 6. I was so exhausted I got home and crashed on the couch.

Ugh. I have class tomorrow, then I have work.

Whats that smell ? Oh wait it's me. Ew. That's disgusting. I get up and walk to the bathroom to take a shower. That's something I desperately need.

//// THE NEXT MORRNING \\\\

I wake up to my alarm. Which basically leads to me wanting to throw the damn thing at the wall. Over and over and over again.

Eventually I get up. I put on my light washed jeans and a white t-shirt. I put on beach wave spray in my hair and leave it natural.

I throw on my white converse and put on mascara and some concealer. Spray on some perfume grab my bag and I'm out.

I close the door grab my keys from my bag and take the elevator down.

I'm about to get in my car when I decide to walk today. I walk down the street on my way to the flower shop. I go in and order 2 white roses. I pay and am on my way out.

I'm walking down the street and as I'm walking I see him. That man. The green eyed beautiful man. He was across the street. He was staring at me.

I look away and keep walking. Ignoring it. I take a turn into the next street. I'm walking down the street and see everyone walking by. They say you never see the same person twice in New York City.

Funny isn't it. I've seen that man twice.

I smile to myself turning to the cemetery. My smiles gone now. I take a deep breath like I do everyday. And walk into the cemetery.
