"ALEX" mom yells
"I'm awake I'm awake" I respond as she comes into my room.
"It's already lunch time! Anyway I'm leaving"
"How long are you going to be gone"
"Hopefully only a couple of weeks but it maybe longer... I've left you some money in the secret spot"
"Ok well be careful... Do I need to drive you to the airport"
"No I have a taxi coming to pick me up"
"Ok"I say hugging her
"Oh and no project x parties... Max ten people in this house"
"Mom I don't even talk to ten people"
"Well you know what I mean"
I laugh "ok bye mom"
"Bye" she says before turning off my light and closing my door. I wait until I hear the front door close and I shriek as I pull out my phone!

Group message: Charlie,Jess,Ricky,me
Me: Hey ya'll want to come over my mom is out of town?
Jess: yes definitely I'll be there at 7
Charlie: yeah... I'll call you later though
Ricky: sounds like fun I'll be there
Me: YAY!

Considering it's only nine AM I decide to rest for five more minutes...
I wake up to my phone ringing.
*mom is calling*
"Hello"
"Alex are you still in bed?
"No I really didn't want to answer"
"Oh shut up... I was just calling to let you know I've made it and it looks like I'll be a few week possibly a month"
"Alright well I'm a big girl... I can take care of myself"
"Ok well I have a meeting talk to you tomorrow"
"Alright bye"
"Alex I love you"
"Love you too mom"
"Bye"
"Bye"
What time is it... Fuck! Five minutes turned into nine hours... Oops. 
I stretch out of bed and slink  all the way to bathroom where I decide to take a shower and put my hair up in a messy bun.
I should really get things ready for when the girls come ov- my thoughts interrupted by a picture of Me and Jay hugging... Those were the happy days before school and before the world seemed to against me.

"Hey Jay... It's been a while... This is weird but uhh I miss you...these past couple of weeks have been brutal.  I know you are somewhere around here protecting me and junk..." I can feel tears forming in my eyes. "I wish I could have stopped it... I saw how upset you were and I didn't do anything...I guess you could say I was naïve... Anyway back to what I've been saying it's been tough these past couple of weeks... Times like these are when I need my big brother the most. Honestly my life has gone to shit since you've left... There was this Dude named Chris - Christopher Nelson Neal. He smashed my heart into a million pieces. I didn't- I still don't know how to get over it... And I've gone and screwed myself over... With another dude... But this time our little drunk make out session made its way onto mainstream media...I can picture you laughing at me right now because my butt is internationally hated and stop its not funny... Ok it's a little bit funny but I'm stressed and I don't know what to do-" my monologue was interrupted by my door openeing.
"HELLOOOOOO" Ricky's sing song voice echos through the house.
"Hey Ricky" I smile as I peek my head downstairs
"Am I the first on here?"
"Yeah I don't know what time the others are going to get here... But do you want to help me get some blankets and stuff... Oh do yall want to hang out in my room or-" I say cutting myself off in hopes I don't have to finish for her to get the gist of things.
"Umm well the thing is I was wondering if we could invite some other people to watch movies or do something... They wouldn't spend the night or anything just you know to have fun"
I don't want to sound like a party pooper but I'm not in the mood for inviting strangers over...
"Yeah that sounds fine... Umm I'll just... Yeah who do you want to invite"
"Umm I don't know a couple of people... I talked to Charlie about it an- and she had some people in mind"
I sigh at the thought of Charlie's friends... Tonight is going to be- different. 
"HEY HEY HEY ITS JESS" she calls jumping out from behind the corner.
"Fucking hell Jess!" Ricky jumps
"I didn't even hear you come in" I laugh
"Alex you are such a prude what in the name of Gandalf are you wearing" Jess asks ignoring the fact that she just ninjaed us.
"What's wrong with my outfit"
"You look like my grandmother"
"Gee thanks"
"I'm serious... Go change"
"I don't have any clothes to change into"
"You stay here and wait for Charlie we are going to find you some decent clothes"
"Alright fine"

I scroll through my phone until I hear a knock on my door.
"Hey Charlie"
"I still find it unfair that I'm the only one that doesn't have a key to your house"
"Yeah yeah yeah"
"So about that picture"
"So nothing I talked to Calum about it and there is nothing he can do about it... So it's just sort of there until everything blows over"
"That picture is not going to blow over its iconic"
"Ugh well then the best I can hope is that my mom doesn't find it ever"
"It's not going to be that hard your mom still owns a flip phone"
"Yeah but... I guess you're right"
"Anyway we are going out tonight"
"But- umm Ricky was inviting people over"
"Oh no she asked that for me but I decided I wanted to go out not stay in... Speaking of heckle and jeckle where are they?"
"They are in my room"
"Alright let's tell them"
"Where are we going"
"Are you dense?... We are going to CLU"
"Oh yeah... I- I just wasn't thinking... I don't know if I want to go"
"Why"
"Because it's Monday and last time I went to CLU I woke up in some random persons hotel room"
"Ahh memories... Hey cunt heads what are you guys doing?"
"Umm- Hey" Ricky and Jess laugh simultaneously
"We are trying to find Alex some decent clothes" Jess answers
"Ooo I know... I hid it here last time I came" Charlie say digging in my closet to find what ever she left.
"Ahhh gold...put it on" she says pulling out a shoe box and handing it to me.
"Ugh fine" I say opening the box.
It's a tube top bra looking thing with a sideless flowery shirt and black high waist shorts
"Ummm I don't know can I just wear a muscle shirt" I ask pulling out one of my muscle shirts. I own dozens of muscle shirts and tshirts they are for sleeping... At least that's what I tell my mom. It's the only way I can express myself if it was up to me I would wear shorts and tshirts everyday... It mostly feeds off the fact that I'm normally not allowed to wear them.
"You can't wear a muscle shirt  to CLU" Charlie states.
"Alright fine" I say putting on the flowery top and slipping my shirt onto my bag while the others were getting ready.
"Alright losers lets go" Charlie say coming out of the bathroom with a backless black dress.

"Is your dad going to be there today?" Ricky asks
"No and the VIP area might be a little dead today so it all just depends we might just stay with the commons"
"Sounds good"
