Teacher's Pet

Chapter 23

This is it. This is what dying feels like. My head isn't even that sore, I just feel like I'm going to hurl my lungs out! I think I might still be drunk, though, because I feel dizzy and the room is spinning. I roll over and check my phone. 12:41pm? WHAT? Oh crap! I still need to buy some last minute things for my Halloween outfit and I'm supposed to be meeting Mandy at 3 so we can go get ready at hers! I pull the charger out of my phone and unlock it, looking for Mandy's number.

"Hello? Hannah?"

"Ama! I only just woke up and I feel like I'm dying!"

"You're new to this, eh?" she laughs on the phone, "Eat a big, greasy breakfast, and drink a lot of coffee. That usually does the trick for me. I woke up with the biggest hangover."

"Thanks for the advice, Mands"

"Don't worry about it, have you called Niall yet?"

"No, not yet. I was going to after I found out what the plans are for today?"

"Ah, I see. Well, I was going to come around to yours around 3, then we can go back to mine, hang out then get ready for the party because it starts at 7:30."

"I am so excited! I LOVE Halloween! What are you going as?"

"You'll see, Han. I have to go, Harry is a little sick so I'm nursing him back to health for tonight."

"He wasn't even drunk though!"

"Yeah, I know... But when we got back we kept drinking so he'd be the same level of drunk. He gets super horny when he's drunk."

"Ewww! Haha you can tell me about it tonight, but for now I'll leave you to be nurse Mandy."

"Ta ta, Han"

"Bye Mands."

Okay, so I need to get breakfast ready or else I am going to be sick everywhere. I walk into the kitchen and the smell of bacon and eggs slaps me in the face.

"Mor, what's this?" I ask, sitting down in front of the counter.

"Well, I heard you on the phone to Mandy so I thought that I'd get some food ready for you since you're awake."

"Thank you so much, it smells delicious!" I walk over to the coffee machine and brew myself a cup of coffee. It is really, REALLY bitter but I feel like I'm starting to wake up. Dammit! I forgot to call Niall! I inhale my breakfast and shove my dirty dishes into the dishwasher.

"That was scrumptious, Mor! Thank you." I race out the kitchen, jump onto my bed and dial Niall's number.

"Hannah! I've been waiting all day for your call!"

"Calm down, sailor, it's only like 1 o'clock."

"I just didn't expect you to sleep in that long. How are you feeling this morning?"

"I'm just feeling nauseous, but now that I've eaten, I'm feeling better."

"So are we going to the party together tonight?"

"No, I'm getting ready with Mandy then we were going to meet you guys there?"

"Oh yeah, sorry I forgot haha"

"That's alright, babe, I'll see you tonight, yeah?"

"Babe?" I can hear him smiling through the phone.

"Shush you, it slipped out!"

"Well, I like it."

There's a brief moment of silence, and I feel so awkward.
