Dark (The Past Never Changes)

Chapter 9

I wake up with a worse head ache than the last time I got drunk. I hold my head as I attempt to sit up. I almost fall off the bed but a firm grip stops me. I look over to see Niall still passed out. I prey myself from his grip and crawl to the stairs. I know I won't be able to walk cause I'm still dizzy. The last thing I remember is getting a couple more drinks after meeting Ashton. Oh gosh, I remembered his name. He was cute, so I don't really think its weird. So many questions run through my head and I slowly make my way to the kitchen. Devin, Mariah, Tony, and Michael are sleeping in the living room. Devin's beside Tony, and Mariah by Michael, but they're not touching. Bailey, Divine, and Raven are here too. Weird. Bree's laugh flows through the air and I stand up with the help of the counter.

"Woah, you okay there Kay-Kay?" She asks grabbing my shoulders. Harry is laughing, at me I assume.

"What the hell happened last night? I totally blacked out after we met Ashton." I say.

"You really don't remember?" She asks.

"No." I shake my head.

"Well after you came back from getting more drinks you started talking to Ashton. After a while you started dancing with him. Niall saw and threw a fit, then you said sorry to Ashton for leading him on and sorry to Niall being too drunk to realize. He forgave you fairly quickly and you started dancing with him instead. Then all the boys disappeared and we were hanging out with Bailey, Divine, and Raven. Some girl came up to you and started telling you to stay away from Niall because she was his first and was determined to get him back so you punched her in the face. Then we got you out of there before anyone could find out." She explains. Wow. I punched a girl in the face. For Niall. Interesting.

"Damn. Was I the only one drunk enough not to remember?" She asks.

"Yeah. I've never seen you that drunk before." She hands me water and pain medication, again.

"Oh gosh. Last night is all a blur." I put my head in my hands.

"Morning love." I hear Niall say, wrapping his arms around my waist and kissing me on the cheek.

"Morning." I turn around and almost fall. Niall catches me.

"Still dizzy?" He asks. I nod and look at him.

"I don't even remember what happened." I say foolishly.

"Let's just say it was eventful." He says.

"I know Bree told me." I say.

"Well then. How'd that go?" He asks.

"I'm sorry." I say to him.

"It's all good." He smiles and kisses my lips.

"Alright, I gotta go." I say and start to my room.

"Where are you going?" Niall asks. I furrow my eye brows.

"Um, I have class.." I say.

"Ohh right. I already called you in for that. I don't think it's a good idea for you to go." Bree says. I sigh in relief. "Uh, can I talk to you Kaylee?"

She runs over to me and takes me to the back living room. She looks confused at first, but then just speaks.

"Um, what classes do you take?" She asks.

"Well, I kind of told Niall that I go to college, so that when I go do the other thing, he doesn't know." I explain.

"You haven't told him?" She asks.

"Obviously not, if we're having this conversation." I say sarcastically.

"Nows not the time for your sarcasm." She yells softly. We begin bickering at each other in a joking way. Someone clears their throat and we look to see Mariah and Devin staring at us.
