Adam's POV
I woke with a pounding in my ears. My head was throbbing like it had been smashed against a wall repeatedly. I guess this is what people call a hangover. Honestly, the alcohol wasn't worth this. I don't know how people do it so often. It just leaves a bitter taste in your mouth, and with a hazy recollection of what happened the night before. I like to cherish memories, and it sickened me that I couldn't remember a single thing. I was lying on my couch, my face was stiffen by tears, I knew the sensation all too well. The only thing I remember is Sadie. Where is she? Is she hurt? Did she leave?
'Adam'
I sat up, and felt immediately nauseous, like I was either going to pass out or at least throw up.
'Sadie, my head...'
'I know buddy, alcohol will do that to you...'
She came and sat by me, she was frowning.
'Adam I'm sorry for what happened last night, I shouldn't have done that to you, I was careless... I just hope you'll forgive me... I took it too far'
My palms started to sweat and questions began buzzing around inside my head.
What did she do to me? Oh god, oh god, am I still a virgin? Oh no... do I get a tattoo? I saw that on T.V once....
'W-what did you do to me Sadie? I don't remember a thing...'
She looked at me, relief washed over her face.
'Oh' she chuckled 'Never-mind then buddy'
'Well I want to know' I snapped, immediately regretting it.
She looked at me, clearly hurt.
'P-please Sadie...' I murmured
'You just cried a whole tonne and had a nervous breakdown over some girl called Ann-Marie...'
I felt my heart burning in my chest.
'She was not just some girl Sadie...'
'I figured that. The tears were flowing like Niagara' she laughed, and patted my back, in a mock sympathetic way.
She was so insensitive.
'I told you I didn't want the alcohol Sadie. You're manipulative. And the only reason you're finding this all so hilarious is because you've never loved a day in your life. You're so hollow'
She looked up at me in dismay.
Oh god. What have I done.
'S-Sadie I'm so sorry... I didn't mean-'
She slapped me. Right round the face. My flesh started to sting. I immediately brought my palm up to it. My skin cooled it down, but only momentarily.
Her teeth were gritted, and a big fat tear rolled down her cheek.
'Your little nice guy act didn't fool me anyways.' she growled, before storming out of my house, and almost slamming the door off of it's hinges.
God do I miss you Ann.
