*James' POV*

I opened my eyes to the sun streaming in through the curtains, I stretched and punched something or someone. Oh yeah, Tom was next to me. He made a strange noise before rubbing his eyes and opening. Oops.

"Man, my head hurts" he complained.
"Do you want me to go get you some water and paracetamol?" I asked.
"Could you?" he requested.

I headed out of the room and downstairs to find only Georgia.
"Morning" I said smiling.
"Sleep well?" she asked.
"Very well thanks, I've just come to get Tom some paracetamol and water" I explained.
"Ah yes, I've already taken Danny some" she said "you know where it is I assume?" I nodded and made my way over to the right cupboard.
I took out the tablet and got the glass of water. I took them up to Tom, he thanked me and I left to go back downstairs again. I may as well get water and tablets for Matt and Harry while I'm at it, Dougie can sort himself out I'm not going in there.

I went back into the kitchen and started getting the tablets and water again much to Georgia's confusion.
"Matt and Harry" I explained again.
"Oh that's nice of you" she smiled.
"I might as well" I said before heading back up again.

I opened their bedroom door with my bum trying not to make any noise. I placed a tablet and a glass of water on each of their bedside tables and left the room.

I went back downstairs and into the kitchen yet again.
"What this time?" Georgia laughed.
"Breakfast" I said "Hang on there's no food in is there?" I remembered.
"Lucky for you I went out this morning and re-stocked all the cupboards" she smiled proudly.
"Thankyou so much!" I almost shouted.
"Shhh, hungover boys upstairs" she said.
"Oops sorry" I said lowering my voice "what's for breakfast then" I asked.

We made some waffles and went into the living room, switching the music channel on. There we ate our waffles in a nice silence, enjoying every bite and particularly enjoying the peace and quiet that was only to last a little while longer until everyone else got up.

About 10 minutes after finishing the waffles we heard the shower being switched on upstairs. Minutes later the other shower was also switched on.

A while later Tom and Danny emerged through the door, looking rough.
"Morning" they groaned.
"Morning" we replied cheerily.

The two showers turned on again.

Then Matt and Harry came through the door and flopped onto the sofa.
"Thankyou to whoever put the tablet and water out for us" Matt said.
"You're welcome" I replied "Thought I'd be nice"
"Well thankyou" Harry said.
I smiled at them.

"Anyone heard from Dougie this morning?" Harry asked after looking around the room to realise he wasn't there.
"No, he's had a busy night if you don't remember" I said.
"Oh yeah" Harry remembered.

We sat and watched the TV until we finally heard movement upstairs.

"Ah finally" Danny said.
"I hope she doesn't come in here" Matt looked concerned.
"Why?" Georgia asked.
"It's just awkward" Tom explained "Especially if they only ended up here because they were so drunk"
"Oh I see" Georgia raised her voice slightly as the two showers switched on again.
"You must have a high water bill" I turned to Danny "Seeing go through this every week"
"What?" he obviously wasn't expecting that question "Uh yeah it's fine, that's what we have jobs for"

Oh yeah, that's how we all became best friends. A new car garage workshop opened in our town and 6 jobs became available. I applied for one of the roles and the other 5 applied for the rest. We didn't know each other before that but when we started and had our first staff meeting we all clicked, we went out for drinks one night and discovered we could all play instruments. That's how it all started. It's not the best paid job but it pays the bills.

A few minutes later we heard footsteps coming down the stairs.
"Here we go" Harry said.

We heard the front door open and close, I think we all internally sighed with relief. Then the living room door opened and a rather rough looking Dougie emerged.

"Morning" he said.
"Afternoon" we replied sarcastically, it was actually afternoon by this point.
"Have you had a paracetamol yet?" I asked.
"You're being very nice today" Harry remarked "Why?"
"I'm the only one not hungover so I thought I'd be kind to you" I explained.
"No I haven't" Dougie moaned.
"I'll get you one, sit down" I instructed, he sat down and I went into the kitchen.

I came back in with paracetamol and a glass of water, I handed them to Dougie.

"Sooo" Matt probed, raising his eyebrows at Dougie.
"What?" he asked.
"Don't 'what' us mate, you know what we want to know" he joked.
"Oh um, the girl?" Dougie asked.
"Yes the girl" Tom confirmed.
"Oh that's uh" he narrowed his eyes and looked confused, brilliant Dougie "Megan" he remembered.
"And?" Danny asked.
"She's blonde" Dougie stated.
"You know absolutely nothing about her do you?" I realised,
"Um, no" Dougie admitted.
"Wow, did you at least get her number?" Harry asked.
"Of course I did" he replied "I wasn't drunk enough to get that intimate with someone and not get their number" as soon as the words came out of his mouth, you could see by the look on his face he regretted it as he blushed furiously.

"Okay moving on" I said quickly "Everyone needs to get over their hangovers by tonight because it's pub night"
"What are you playing?" Georgia asked "We might come watch"
"Or not" Danny said quickly, he received a questioning look from Georgia but ignored it.
"Dougie wants to play '5 colours', I was thinking 'Year 3000' and 'King' by Years and Years" I said.
"Maybe a couple of the usual covers too?" Tom suggested.
"Yeah definitely" I said.
"Well Gi, Izzy and I may pop along for a bit then" Georgia said.

Our set was at 9-10pm in the pub, it was currently 2pm. We basically sat in the living room watching TV and talking until 8pm when we decided it was probably best to get ready, Georgia left to go to Izzy's to get ready and the rest of us went upstairs.
