Mr Popular And The Outcast

Chapter 10 - "Rhea, did I kiss Cole?"

"Wakee uuuppp!" A voice bellowed down my ear

I turned over the other way making a noise to get this person away from me. My head was pounding and my mouth was dry. I guess this is how a hang over feels like, but I know I will never be drinking again, how do people put up with this every weekend?

"Got a hangover?" Mollie sang down my ear

"Yes!" I whined while covering my ears

Everything sounded like screaming to me, I could not handle this.

"Well I am at the ready for you girls who aren't used to partying hard! Downstairs, now!" She shouted, I think

Me, Sarah and Rhea all groaned in sync and dragged ourselves out of bed and downstairs. I looked in the mirror on the way down and just my reflection made me want to be sick everywhere, my hair was a mess, I still had last nights dress on and my make up had smudged everywhere.

We got into the kitchen and there was Mollie smiling while she pushed tablets, water, and food infront of us, which right now felt like she had just given me $1,000. We all quickly devoured everything and I didn't feel as bad, my head was just hurting.

"I tax the shower!" I screamed while running up the stairs followed by many shouts of "fuck you!" off Sarah and Rhea

Why is it in the shower you think about everything? It's like a thing everyone does, but it was really taking over me today. Did I kiss Cole? None of them lot said anything to me, I didn't want to say something to him incase I'm making it up because I was drunk, but what if I did? Oh damn it's going to be so awkward when I see him now, and it might not even have to be! I don't even remember half of last night, I just remember getting there and downing cups of I don't even know!

I stepped out and put on some fresh clothes while drying my hair making it go frizzy, I could just hear Cole saying "Frizzy"

Why do you keep thinking about him?

I shook my head trying to stop and went on the look for my phone. Where the heck was it?! I had literally turned the room upside down but it was no where to be found, oh god no what if I lost it last night?! Panic took over me as I ran downstairs to check down there.

"Woah woah what's up!?" Mollie asked urgently

"Lost my phone!" I shrieked

"Calm down, I took it off you last night incase you lost it, it's in my bag upstairs" She smiled

I smiled back at her, good job she knew how to look after me! I ran back upstairs and turned it on, revealing 2 texts.

Text from - Cole

Had a good night last night, hows your hangover? x

Oh my god he put a kiss, oh my god what did he mean he had a good night, oh my god I kissed himi didn't I?

I KISSED COLE CHAPMAN

"What are you smiling so much for?" Rhea smirked

"Rhea, did I kiss Cole?" I gulped

I didn't know whether to be happy or sad about it, Cole was not the kinda' guy for a relationship, so I cannot develop feelings for him, I just can't.

"Did you kiss him?! Summer you were literally eating each other all frickin' night!" She laughed

My eyes nearly popped out of my head, dammit!

I clicked on the next text from a number I didn't have saved.

Text from - 0148 142 924

Go near Cole and I'll just spill to everyone how unperfect your life really is, got it?

What the fuck

Who else knows about my Mom?! I do not need this right now, oh my god.

Text to - 0148 142 924

Who's this?

I sat on the edge of the bed waiting for my phone to vibrate, who could it be?!

Text from - 0148 142 924

You don't need to know, just don't go near Cole again and no one will know about your drunk mother :-)

My heart was beating faster and my hands were sweating badly, I can't just avoid Cole, he'll know somethings up, plus we have to do our project together, but I can't have everyone knowing how bad my life actually is! Who the fuck is this!

"You okay Sum?" Sarah asked walking in

"Y-yeah I'm fine" I muttered

I couldn't tell anyone about this, I just need to ignore Cole and keep this to myself, then no one will find out. Dammit this is going to be hard.

I got my stuff together and went downstairs, I couldn't be around these lot like this, they'll know somethings up.

"Guys, I've got work so I'll have to head out" I sighed

"Aww, okay we'll talk later!" Mollie smiled

"See you!" Sarah and Rhea both shouted

"Bye guys!" I smiled

I put my ear phones in on my walk home, I really need to invest in a car. Australia first, then car Summer. I smiled to myself realising I had only a few more shifts till I could afford a trip to Australia, then I could get away from here and all the drama...

I got home to another note left from my Mom.

Summer,

I have attended a group today where we help each other prepare to stay sober. I am so sorry for everything, we will speak when I get home, if you will listen.

Love, Mom x

What the fuck was this? This day was really weird, she was actually attempting to stay sober? But how can I forgive her after all of this, can she actually become a proper Mom after all this? Do I forgive her? Urgh I don't even know.

I got my uniform on and waited for Danny to come pick me up for another exciting shift at work, I just hope Cole doesn't come in again since he knows I  now work there, that'd be awkward considering I've ignored his texts. All of this is fucked up.
