It had been a wild night for everyone. The friends had gone out to celebrate Sailor's birthday, and things had quickly gotten out of hand. The sun is streaming through the curtains of the cosy living room, casting a warm glow. Sky, Sailor, and Rebel find themselves huddled on the sofa, each of them has a blanket draped over their heads, with just their faces popping out, shielding them from the brightness of the day.
Isabella lies curled up with her head resting on Sky's lap as she sleeps soundly. Sky runs his fingers through her hair, watching her with a small smile on his face. The room is silent, save for the sound of the movie playing in the background. The hangover from the previous night is hitting all of them hard, and they can feel it in every fibre of their being.
The pounding headache, the dry mouth, and the feeling of exhaustion seem to seep into their very bones. Sailor lets out a groan from under her blanket, her hand reaching out blindly for the bottle of water on the coffee table. She takes a long sip, wincing at the taste of the tequila that still lingers on her tongue. Rebel chuckles from beside her, her own bottle of water already halfway empty.
Rain enters the living room with a chuckle at the sorry sight before him. He can feel his own pounding headache, a reminder of the excessive drinking from the night before. "What are you guys watching?" He asks.
Sailor looks up from the TV with a grin. "Obviously the cinematic masterpiece Mulan," she responds, her enthusiasm not dampened by the headache she is experiencing. "We need something to cure our hangovers, and what better way than Li Shang?"
Rain laughs and hops over the back of the sofa behind Sailor, pulling her in between his legs. "Where is everyone else?" he inquires, looking around the room.
Sailor gestures to a pile of blankets on the floor. "Aquarius is buried under those, Storm is in the bathroom dealing with the aftermath of last night, Zane is in the kitchen whipping up some hangover food, and Damien is reluctantly helping him." She explains.
Mulan plays on the screen, the familiar songs and dialogue providing a soothing background to the morning after. Sailor snuggles closer to Rain, seeking comfort in his embrace as she rests her head against his chest. Despite the throbbing pain in her head, she can't help but feel content in this moment.
The warmth of her friends surrounding her is a soothing balm to her hangover. She remembers how they used to watch Mulan over and over again, each of them relating to the themes of loyalty, bravery, and love. It is a film that touched their hearts and became a cherished part of their friendship.
Rain smiles at the sight before him. These are his closest friends, the people he has shared everything with since they were children. As Mulan sings about reflection and honour on the screen, Rain can't help but reflect on the bond they all share. They have been through so much together – heartbreak, triumph, loss – and yet through it all, they have always had each other's backs, supporting and lifting each other.
