It's Complicated

The Drunk Mess

I woke up and turned over seeing Dylan still asleep. I yawned and faced his wall for awhile. Then the bed was moving so I looked over and Dylan was awake. "Good morning?" I smiled laughing a little because his hair was a mess.

"More like afternoon." He said looking at the time. I brushed my teeth then went downstairs to clean up the mess from last night.

Once I was done I walked over and sat on the couch going on my phone.

Stella sweetie text me when you wake up
Hey mom just got up
Stella do you know what time you'll be back home?
No why?
Because Dylan's parents invited your dad, me, and Matthew to join them but I said we couldn't yesterday so they said we could go today.
Oh so you all are leaving today?
Yeah in a hour that's why I wanted to see when you'd get back so we can say bye.
Alright I'll let Dyl know and I'll be there in 20 minutes.
Dyl?
Oh yea, I'll explain when I get there.
Hmm alright

"Who you texting?" Ellery's voice made me jump. "Oh god you scared me, I'm just texting my mom-" Ellery came and sat beside me. "Apparently she's going with your mom and dad, with my father and Matthew." I said scrolling through Instagram.

"So we have two houses empty for a whole weekend." Ellery grinned. "If you're planning to have a party don't tell me," I said not wanting to be a part of it. "I got to go," Ellery said going to her room smiling.

"Ellery whatever you're planning it's not going to work out!" I yelled as she ran upstairs. Dylan then came down the stairs. "What happened?" He asked confused. "My parents and Matthew were invited to go with your parents so they're leaving in a hour." I explained getting up walking to him.

"I have to go," I said kissing his cheek. "I'll drive you, my mom left her car." Dylan offered. "Alright let's go then." Dylan let Ellery know that we were leaving then we left.

"I'm going to tell them we are together when I get there." I said staring out the window. Dylan slid his hand on my thigh. "Don't worry, if you want I can go with you." He said softly. "No I'm fine, it's best they hear just from me." I looked at him.

He turned his head and smiled then looked back on the road. Dylan pulled up in my driveway and took his hand off my thigh. "I'll see you later?" Dylan asked raising his eyebrows. I smiled and nodded.

I opened the door then Dylan grabbed my hand. I turned my head and Dylan kissed me on the the lips. "Bye Dylan." I said then left. I opened the front door and there were multiple bags on the floor.

"You're back." My dad said walking towards me with his arms wide open. "Oh no," I whispered before he grabbed me and pulled me into a tight hug. "That's enough." I said out of breath because he was squeezing me so hard.

My dad laughed then let go. I took a breath of relief. "Hi mom, hi Matthew. You guys excited to leave me?" I smiled. "We sure are." My dad laughed. I rolled my eyes then sat on the couch.

"Well it's time for us to leave," my mom said. "Okay," I said. "Dylan is allowed over and your friends just don't have things get out of hand." My dad said. As much as I wanted to tell them I just couldn't, not until things were actually serious.

"Alright," I said pushing them out the door. "I'm leaving my car and my car keys, only use it to get food." Matthew said. "Yay, thanks." I smiled. "And here's some money for food." My mom handed me $100. "Okay." My eyes widened as I snatched it from her hand.

"Bye!" I yelled then closed the door locking it. I looked down at the 100 dollar bill an grinned. Old me would invite people over and throw a little party. Then people would bring more and more drinks until it got out of control and the cops come. But I'm different now.
