"Do I Wanna Know"- Hozier
I walked downstairs, my head was pounding from last night. I hate being hungover, it's hell. I walk into the kitchen and see Taylor sitting at the counter, holding her head in her hands.
"Hungover?" I ask.
She groans and nods. I sigh and sit next to her, just as Garrett walks in with Brennen.
"Good morning!" Garrett smiles.
Taylor glares at him and he chuckles, "My bad." He says.
Brennen looks at me and my heart skips a beat. I don't remember much from last night, it was all a blur.
But looking at him right now was doing all sorts of things to me. He was perfect. I wasn't sure what we were now but I was afraid to ask him. I mean everyone knows now, so I don't get what the problem would be if we got together again. But I didn't know how we stood with each other after he walked out the door of Taylor and Lily's apartment.
"How are you feeling, Jules?" Garrett asks.
"Like shit." I say.
Brennen chuckles. I smile at him. I hear a groan and look over and watch Chris walk in, he had pants on for once, but no shirt.
"Goodmorning, Christopher." Garrett smiles.
"Fuck you all." He says as he sits on the other side of Taylor.
"I guess we are on breakfast duty." Brennen says.
"Yup." Garrett says.
"Where's Lily and Jake?" Brennen asks.
"Asleep, they were up all night fucking, it was not a pleasent sound." Chris says.
"Jesus, Chris." Taylor says.
He shrugs, "You and Garrett do it all the time too."
"Please stop talking." Taylor begs.
"Is Norah asleep still?" I ask, changing the subject.
Brennen nods.
"Who wants McDonalds?" Brennen asks the room.
"Me." We all say.
"Come on." Brennen says to Garrett.
They both make their way out of the kitchen, leaving the hungover people to rot in the here.
"My brain is about to blow." Taylor says, holding her head in her hands.
"Same." Chris replies.
I groan as I place my head on the counter, "That was a rough night." I say.
"Mine was worse, I drunk called a girl." Chris says.
Me and Taylor look at him in shock.
"You drunk called a girl?" She asks.
He nods.
"Who?" I question.
"Her name is Dakota." He replies.
"Oh my god, Chris. You actually like a girl?" Taylor asks.
"I don't know, it's complicated." He says.
"Dakota, huh?" Taylor smiles.
"Don't say her name, I'm embarrassed enough." He groans.
I laugh.
"Don't tell the guys, they'll make fun of me for the rest of my life." He tells us.
"We won't." I say.
