It was 4:00 am; a week later and I woke up at the sound of bangs against my bedroom window. With a dragged out dramatic sigh, I swung my legs over the edge of my bed and opened my curtains. I saw a very drunken-up, nackered Shirley, holding a half empty vodka bottle, throwing stones at my window.
"Shirley!" I growled in a quick whisper. "What the bloody hell are you doing? I'm sleeping!" I yelled, once again in a whisper.
"Please, come outside, I need to speak to you" she sobbed. Was she really crying? I thought about this for a moment then with an angry sigh I shut my window and went outside to where Shirley was, drunk and tired; as I thought.
"What?" I crossed my arms. I knew she'd come running back after she lost jade.
"I've been thrown out of Denise's house! I need somewhere to stay" she slurred. Oh great, she's using me now.
"Why should I let you stay? You didn't speak to me once you had jade, you pressured me to lie to buster and now you've woken me up at 4 in the morning" I rolled my eyes.
"My baby girl" she grumbled. Wow she's so drunk. "I have made some stupid mistakes, but I never meant to hurt you or lose you" she added.
I just stared at her, revolving everything in my head.
"And I have nowhere to stay, so I came here because I know I can trust you. But if you don't let me stay, I understand" she cupped me cheek. Maybe it's the most mature thing to do right now.
"Fine. But be quiet, you can stay in my room" I gave in.
"Thankyou"
