|The hangover|

I wake up to the smell of eggs being cooked and the sound of the morning news on the radio echoing through my ears.

"Mom?" I lift myself up.

"Oh sweetie!" She runs over and sits on the arm of the sofa.

"What the hell happened?" She rubs my back.

"I won't lie to you mom, i went to a party and got a bit distracted with the alcohol" I groan.

"Yeah, that's right, Steve wouldn't leave me alone on the walkie talkie last night. He woke me up and he was shouting down at me to make sure you're okay" Dustin walks in with his school bag.

"Aw, well have you seen the state you're in!" Mum helps me up linked arms.

"Go get ready and I'll give you a fake note saying you've been to the Docters or something, so you won't get done for being late." She insists.

"But who is dropping Dustin off?" I turn around to look at Dustin, but Hes already gone.

"His friend, Steve probably." she chuckles and helps me get walking to the bathroom.

I get a shower and i feel better than i was already. I scrunch my hair into a bun and only manage to do some light makeup and some comfortable clothes.

I come out and sit on the breakfast table to a note from mom.

"Had to rush into work. Make sure you get to school safely, and can you pick up Dustin again?

I grab the scrambled eggs and start eating them.

I take out my phone to see a message from Billy and lodes from Steve and a couple from robin.

"Can you come watch my basketball practice tonight?" - Billy

"Are you okay?" "Message me back when you've woken up" "You left your jacket in my car" - Steve

"Hey, let me know if you need anything for that hangover!" "Are you okay?" - robin.

I message Robin and Steve saying I'm okay. I message Billy saying, "Yes, of course".

I've forgotten everything that had happened last night.

I felt rough as shit Aswell.

I finally have the energy to go to school around an hour and a half late.

I drive to school still having a banging headache.

I walk into the registration office and hand in my note.

Literature was my next lesson, which was in 15 minutes, so I got my literature book out and i just waited until literature class was starting.

I lock my locker and start heading down to the literature classroom. The bell hits and students start overcrowding.

"Hey, amber!" Robin was shouting down when she saw me.

"Heyyy" i roughly said.

"Are you okay? You should of seen yourself last night you were mad drunk" she giggles, and we start walking to the literature classrooms.

"I thought i must have been, cause i feel rough as fuck" I rub my forehead.

We get to my classroom and i wave goodbye to robin and walk into the classroom and sit in my seat which was directly in the middle.

Steve walks in. I totally forgot he was in my literature.

I smile at him, and he sits behind me.

I turn to look at him "Hey, thank you for taking care of me last night. I am really sorry, robin told me how much i had drank".
