something about you- lena oberdorf

VIII.

I wake up with my head hurting badly.

Last nights party was epic. Everyone had fun, was drunk, danced and enjoyed life, but I hate the next morning.
I take the first look on my phone to check the time. 7 am. Wow, had 4 great hours of sleep.

When I scroll through whatsapp I see obi's  contact at the top of my messages.
"Haha, why is the chat on top? Did she text me?"

I click on our chat to realise that not she was the one sending a message, but I was. I drunk texted her.

me
hi obiiii
yiu zokd me to tect you
here i sm
read 2:21am

What the actual fuck?! Why did no one stop me?Omg, did I tell anyone about her? This is embarrassing. She didn't even replied. I should not wonder when I get blocked in the next 2 hours.

I get out of the room where I was sleeping and stand in the middle of a chaos.
Everyone is gone and there's just Smilla left, laying in between beer doses.
This is a mess I got used to, since the significant six throw partys regularly.
We will get it all cleaned up sometime today, but for now I need to make myself a coffee and get under the next shower to feel like a human again.

I just got out of the shower, when I hear the first voices in the house.
„Rise up people" Rick yells, to make sure everyone is awake and ready to clean up.
Surprisingly everyone is in a good state (even Smilla) and doing great work, when removing empty glasses, washing dishes and moving chairs to their original position.

After 2 hours of cleaning, with loud music blasting in our ears for the good vibes, we are finished and the house looks just like nothing happened last night.
We call Lily to bring over Emma and to tell her everything that happened at the party, because she is still interested about all the gossip.

We all sit on the couch talking about who kissed who and who left when etc., when I hear my phone ding. Not now. Please don't let it be her now, because I don't know how to act normal, and everyone is able to see me.

obi
hello to you too
you where drunk last night, weren't you?

Fuck. "Guys i'm going to the bathroom. brb." I say, because I feel like screaming at myself in the mirror right now. Her messages do something to me. She's just so confident.

I lock the door and sit down on the ground. I always do that. I'm better at thinking when I'm on the floor.

me

i first noticed you when walking inside the stadium. you looked so passionate about seeing the players and i admired that.
scnd time i saw you sitting not far away from the bench and laughing with your friends with that pretty smile.
i told the girls about you and they said i should shoot my shot so i did
here we are

me

Yes, I am totally ignoring this whole complimenting thing. I need time to process.

obi
oh just my german teammates
they know everything
we're like a big family

me
oh great

I can feel myself getting comfortable with texting her. I've probably been in this bathroom for too long, but I can't stop talking to her now.

obi

I can feel myself blushing at that name. What is Lena Oberdorf doing to me???
