Scott Pilgrim Takes Flight

Chapter 2: Next Morning

As the morning unfolded, the band members were DEFINITELY hungover. They found themselves in their own homes (luckily) nursing various degrees of hangovers and processing the events of the previous night. The faint sunlight filtered through their windows, casting a subdued glow on their individual reflections. We start with Kim..

"OH MY GOD!!" Kim shrieked as she looked at herself in her mirror. Her reflection stared back, a mix of disbelief and a trace of something more profound etched across her features. "Did I really do that?!" She says, bewildered. The events of the night before played like a hazy film in her mind.

She sat on the edge of her bed, trying to gather the fragments of memories, the laughter, the shared glances, and the unexpected kiss with Scott. The taste of the alcohol lingered on her lips, blending with the warmth that radiated from within.

As Kim recalled the moments in the quieter corner of the party, a peculiar mix of emotions swirled within her. The flutter in her chest returned, accompanied by a subtle sense of exhilaration. It was a departure from the usual stoicism that defined her, and she couldn't shake the realization that something had shifted.

"I kissed Scott..." she whispered to herself, as if testing the reality of the words. "I KISSED SCOTT?!", Kim says more profoundly this time. The realization brought a combination of excitement and a dance between the echoes of the past and the uncharted territory of the present.

The more she reflected on the kiss, the more she felt the weight of unspoken emotions resurfacing. Kim couldn't deny the connection that had  rekindled, nor could she ignore the questions that lingered in the aftermath. "What do I do?", Kim sighs in disbelief.

With a deep breath, Kim stood up and walked over to her window, the small town sounds buzzing around her. The morning light cast a warm glow, and she couldn't help but wonder how the events of the night would shape the dynamics within the band and, more importantly, between her and Scott.

Scott on the other hand...

"BLURGGG!!", Scott manages to say as he throws up in the toilet. Wallace, in the kitchen making breakfast says, "Had a fun time buddy?". There wasn't no response as Scott was continuing to throw up. A few minutes pass, as Scott finally comes out the bathroom cleaned up. "Ugh.. head hurt. Neeeeeed food." Scott finally says as he wipes his mouth.

Scott sits down at the kitchen bar and right as he's about to bite into his bacon, PING! from both Scott and Wallace's phone.
