Oh God, how I hate him | JOSEPH DESCAMPS

16-The Night Is Still Young

Waking up, I look down at my clothes, still the ones I had on from yesterday, huh? Rolling over, facing my drawer, a note(I think that's what it is) on it catches my attention. Sitting up, I grab it, it's a photo, specifically of me asleep on top of Joseph who's asleep too.The back of it had some words scribbled in pen.

"Joseph Descamps and Enikő Áts, cuties!"

Clearly my mother's writing. Suddenly a voice calls out.

"Do you like the photo!" My mom.

Sighing heavily, I fight with my hair.

"Yes mom, I love it." Every word of mine dripping with sarcasm.

Looking in the mirror I look like an absolute fucking mess, looking at the bottom of my feet I see yet another note, what is this, the adventures of Sherlock Holmes? Bending down, I grab the note, unfolding it.

"Haha, good morning. Well at least I hope you've opened this in the morning. Last night was fun. Hope you know that.
-Joseph Descamps(aka 'Vincent Auriol')"

I couldn't help but laugh at the ending bit of it, I remember clearly walking past Joseph, only hearing a bit of his conversation. But he had sounded pissed muttering,

"The next person to mention Vincent Auriol is getting punched in the face."

And as if on cue, Applebaum(it's always something with him) whispered.

"Didn't Vincent Auriol have one eye?" To a bored Felbec.

Smiling at the memory I just laugh, now getting up out of bed I sit down on my vanity, remembering I had to go to Felbec's at 12pm, it was currently 11am so I had decent enough time. Thank God my hair wasn't greasy along with my face after the state I fell asleep in last night. Glancing at my baby pink telephone, I call Joseph's house number, the static line picking up.

"Hello?" A confused voice belonging to Joseph picked up.

Holding back a snicker at how confused he sounded I reply.

"Haha, it's me, idiot. Enikő."

"Shut up." I could basically see his huffed expression in my mind. "Anyway what do you want?"

"Stop you're so cheeky. I just wanted to say my mom took a photo of us last night sleeping, I'll print a copy and give it to you on Monday, okay?"

"Did she actually? Ugh, okay. Bye, Dupin and Vergoux are coming over." Joseph quickly says, getting excited as if some child waiting for a play date.

"I'll keep you in my prayers then, because Vergoux has been getting more chaotic lately." I shake slightly, thinking back to some of the moments I've experienced with Vergoux lately.

"Trust me, I know. He genuinely needs stopped."

"He's funny,though. Anyway, bye." I say waiting for Joseph to end the call as I notice it's now 11:25.

Panicking now, I run about the house like a madman, after doing a whole speed run of my skincare, I sit down. Should I do makeup that severely ? It is Felbec after all, he genuinely probably just wants to study.I'll just do some light makeup. Finishing off my lipstick I realise something, I have no clue where the fuck Felbec lives. Oh. Now I'd have to go to Pichon's(I remember where he lived due to me maybe sneakily spying on him and Annick walking together there for the exposé we did.) and ask where Felbec lived.

"Bye dad." I nod as I kiss my dad on the cheek, him warning me to "stay safe." as I walk out of the door.

Looking around at the sky, I can't help but realise how much I've grown to love this stupid place. A while back if you'd asked me, when I just moved here, do I like it? I would've said "No." and laughed. But now I slowly come to terms that I don't just like it here, I love it. Okay that got a bit cringy but you get my point. I really need to stop talking to myself. My whole speech to myself was that long that I had now made it to Pichon's house, suddenly I remembered something, his 3(was it?) sisters. Shit. I can't lie, little sisters scare me. Well I think they're only like a year younger and one might be older, I don't even know. Mustering up the tiniest bit of courage left in me, I open on the door. Just my luck, Pichon's mom greeted me.
