At the time of the party

Reputation

I had been forced to do door duty, letting guests in as they arrived. I had already had few drinks but wasn't too drunk since Lover would accidentally get drunk out of her mind and I wanted to be sober enough to look after her. Someone knocked on the door, so I pulled it open.

'Hey Rep!' Taylor was standing in the doorway with her boyfriend, his name was Travis or something.

'Hey! Come in, booze is in the kitchen'.

They nodded and wandered inside.

That's the last of them, anyone else can let themselves in. Now where's my girlfriend, I thought, walking towards a small mass of bodies. I quickly spotted Lover hanging out with Folklore and 1989. 

'Hey baby' I said, walking over to her side.

'Reppy! Where were youuu' she slurred.

'I was just at the door; I'm staying with you now though'.

She giggled and hugged me. I turned to 1989 and Folklore.

'How much has she drunk?'

'Like, two glasses of cheap red' Folklore laughed before continuing 'She gets drunk so fast oh my god'.

'Yeah, I know, which is why I'm staying with her. I don't trust people. And because I love her, of course'.

'Hey, I'm just going to go check on Midnights' 1989 mumbled before walking away. Me and Folklore exchanged looks.

'Those two' Folklore shook her head.

'They have to sort their shit out. It's not healthy for either of them. I think Midnights is getting better though, now she doesn't have random cigs all through her room' I replied, picking up a can of coke.

'Yeah, I hope so. They could be so good together'.

Me and Folklore chatted for a while, with Lover constantly touching me in some way. Eventually it was just me and Folklore having a normal conversation while Lover was kissing and hugging me affectionately. I kissed her back as many times as I could without trying to seem rude and like I wasn't listening to Folklore.

'Reppy your neck skin is sooooo soft I just wanna kiss it ALL' Lover giggled before yawning and wrapping her arms around my waist.

'You can, baby. Do you wanna go to bed soon? I think we probably should' I soothed, letting her rest her head on my shoulder.

'I'll let you two go, I might find someone here I like' Folklore said, looking around the room. I nodded and started to head towards the stairs, Lover still attached to my side. As I walked away from the music and chaos of the living room, I noticed a couple people I didn't recognise, however one looked quite familiar. I couldn't place her, so I just walked upstairs and to my room, brushing it off as one of Midnights friends or something.

1989

I woke up the next morning on the couch with none other than Midnights on top of me. I was glad to find both of us fully clothed.

'Midnights?' I said, gently pulling myself into a sitting position. My moving around didn't wake her so I gently shook her shoulders. She still didn't wake up, which was normal for her so I shook her harder than would have been necessary. The skin on her face was paler that usual and her lips weren't as bright.

'Mid? Midnights!' I said, starting to get worried about her. She eventually stirred and her eyes fluttered open.

'Oh, um. Hi' I muttered.

'Where- what? Oh. Morning.' Midnights sat up and groaned.

'Are you ok?' I asked, placing my hand on her arm.

'Yeah, just my stomach is killing me. And my head hurts. And I think if I move any more, I'm going to be sick. Scratch that I'm going to be sick'- Midnights covered her mouth with her hands and I quickly passed her a random plastic bag in the drawer of the coffee table. She coughed and threw her guts up a few times, gagging in between. I rubbed her back and waited for her to be finished.

'Are you okay? Do you want to go to the toilet?'

She nodded in response, and I slowly helped her to her feet.

'Evermore! Folklore? Anyone in the kitchen?' I called out. Both girls wandered out of the kitchen before rushing over to help when they saw us.

'Oh my god is Midnights okay?' Folklore asked anxiously.

'What does it look like! I mean, sorry. Can one of you take this to the bin?' I asked. Folklore nodded and took the bag full of spew to the bin outside, to avoid making to whole house smell.

'Thanks Folklore, come on Mid'. I rushed Midnights to the bathroom just in time before she chucked up all over the floor. I held her hair out of the way and rubbed her back as she got the rest of it out of her.

'Did you know the carroty-looking bits in vomit is actually your stomach lining? True fact' Evermore mused from the doorway.

'That's real nice Ev, what a fun fact' Midnights said weakly, the sarcasm evident in her voice. Evermore rolled her eyes.

'You done Mid?' I asked once Midnights was slumped against the wall, panting slightly.

'I think so, god that's disgusting'.

I frowned. 'You look really pale, what did you drink last night?'

'Just the usual, beer, wine'.

'You must have had something different cos you don't look great'.

'Well, I don't feel great either' she scoffed.

Why am I always the one dealing with vomiting people?

'You should probably rest. And no more alcohol'.

Midnights opened her mouth to argue but couldn't find the energy.

'I feel like I was just hit by a bus' she mused, gazing at a wall.

'Let's get you to bed. Ev can you help me?' I said, standing up. Evermore nodded and walked over before pulling Midnights to her feet. I put one of her arms over my shoulder and slowly led Midnights to her room. She sat on her bed and flopped onto her back, closing her eyes immediately. I went and grabbed her a bucket before bringing her her toothbrush.

'Ok. Bucket is there if you feel sick, I'm going to call the doctors place and see if someone can come here and check on you' I mumbled, going to follow Evermore out the room.

'Wait. 1989?' I turned around.
'Don't be long'.

I gave her a small smile.

'Of course not'.

AN: OMG I AM SCREAMING. I FULLY CLOWNED FOR REP TV YESTERDAY BUT WE GOT TS11! I googled it in Science class with my friend and I started hyperventilating lol.
