I wake up in my room, there's a glass of water next to me, my head is killing me!
I groan as my eyes adjust to the lights.
I sit up and wipe my eyes, I then look down at my clothes.
im wearing the same black dress, but my converse, my coat are not in the room.
and my socks aren't on.
there's two bandaids on my left hand, and my back is so sore.
I get out of bed and stumble to the washroom, but I bump into el on the way.
"we need to talk." she says with that one look on her face- the looks moms give children before lecturing them.
"can I pee first?"
el scoffs.
"sure."
---
I rub my hands on the grey sweater i'm wearing over my dress, i'm guessing its el's.
I make my way to the table, where el is sitting. there is also a long note on the table.
im guessing its from my mom, she just couldn't yell at me when I got home cause I was sleeping.
"Sit." El says, pulling out a chair.
I flop down on the chair.
el takes a deep breath.
"WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING MAX?" she yells.
I squeeze my eyes shut as the yelling makes my head hurt even more.
el doesn't stop there.
"I CANT BELIEVE YOU, MAX. WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT. FIRST YOU DRANK ALCOHOL, GOT DRUNK. THEN YOU KISSED 2 OTHER PEOPLE?? IM SO MAD ATYOU RIGHT NOW. SO MAD." the angry brunette continues.
I kissed two people last night?
how drunk was I?
"NO APOLOGY?" el yells again.
I stare at my hands, trying to remember what happened.
"its.. all a blur." I mumble.
El scoffs.
"Let me fill in the gaps." el starts, I look her in the eyes. "you got so drunk, so drunk. I couldn't call hopper to pick us up, cause I know he would give us shit cause you were underage drinking. so I had to practically carry you home, you kissed Gary and Lucas last night, then I had to take care of you all night, not being able to sleep. not to mention the fact that hopper is so angry that I didn't call him last night cause I was watching you, making sure that you're okay."
el goes to put her hand down my my shoulder but I flinch.
I feel a tear stream down my face, followed by another one, and another one. I then put my head down on the table. my fiery red hair and my arms cover my face.
"i'm sorry.." I sniff.
"Look, i'm sorry for yelling." el begins, "i'm just- disappointed."
I look up at el, she just stares into my eyes.
I could tell she wasn't ready to forgive me, but then again i'm her girlfriend, she has to.. right?
"i'm sorry.." I say again. "i'm sorry for kissing Gary and Lucas, I don't remember any of it, i'm sorry for getting drunk, i'm sorry for being difficult and stubborn and obsessive, i'm sorry for being annoying, i'm sorry for moving to Hawkins, I'm sorry for being moody and rude 99% of the time, i'm sorry el, i'm sorry. I under stand if you hate me now." I continue to cry.
el stands up and pulls me up with her.
she then wraps me in a big bear hug, I bury my head on her shoulder and let my tears flow out.
"don't blame yourself for life being hard." el starts, "I love you so much max, and id never hate you, not ever in my life. not again." el says, swaying me in her arms.
"I love you.." I whisper back.
I pull away, I already showed too much weakness.
I wipe my tears and take a few deep breaths.
"by the way, will called while you were asleep, he's worried about you."
I smiles slightly.
"ill call him, thanks."
el smiles at me.
I can tell she feels bad for yelling at me, but there is a bonus to that, she'll give me cuddles!
I walk into my room and motion towards the phone,
I then pick it up and proceed to dial wills number.
Joyce answers the phone
"hello?" she asks.
"Hi, i'm max, a friend of wills, can I speak with him?"
"yeah, sure."
"WILLLLL!!" I hear Joyce yell to will.
"coming!!" I hear him yell back.
he picks up the phone.
"Hello?"
"hi, will it's max."
"oh hey, what's up."
"El said you called."
"yeah, I was worried."
"oh, well i'm fine."
"so convincing." he giggles.
"I mean it!"
"mhmmmm..."
"well, my head hurts but other than that its fine."
"oh yeah, I want my sweater back." he says.
I look down and realize that this whole time I was wearing wills grey hoodie, the one we wore to the party yesterday.
surprisingly I remembered that.
"oh, when did you give me it."
"last night, you left your jacket and shoes at mikes, so I gave you m sweater so you wouldn't freeze to death."
"that's kinda nice"
"you're welcome."
"wait how am I gonna give it to you if I don't have shoes.."
will giggles.
"I guess you'll have to go barefoot!" he says.
"haha so funny"
"its good to hear your voice, i'm actually relieved you're okay."
"why wouldn't I be?"
"well, last night was scary.."
"oh."
"no it's just, I didn't imagine you to be a drinker."
"that was my first time, I guess was just living in the moment."
"have I ever told you how grateful I am for you?" will asks.
"No... why..? is something wrong?" I question.
"its just, i've never really checked in on you- have I?"
"you have."
"oh."
I giggle.
"well, other than that one time, I don't really ask you if anything is bothering you or something."
"thanks for checking up on me, but i'm okay. really."
"if you say so, anyways. I got to go, cya"
"cya"
I hang up.
