A/N: Well Hello...

Zoey's pov

I can't even feel my head right now, it won't stop pounding. I sit up and look around finding that this isn't my room or any room in my house for that matter. I look on the nightstand and see my phone, water, and some Advil. I take the Advil and get up to leave the room. I go downstairs and I begin to hear someone humming. Following it I find the kitchen and I see Lauren sitting at the island writing and humming something. I clear my throat making her look up from the notepad that she's was writing on.

"Oh hey, you're awake! How does your head feel?"~L

"I'm fine I took the Advil so thanks. Where am I by the way?"~Z

"You're in my house. You got pretty wasted last night so I just brought you to my house." ~L

"Oh okay thanks everyone else probably would have been to wasted to bring me." ~Z

"Yea it got really crazy in there." ~L

"Alright well can you take me home so I can change out of these clothes please." ~Z

"Yea no problem let me go get my keys and we can go" ~L

I run back upstairs to get my phone that was on charger. We get to her car and she starts to drive to my house. We talk and sing along to some random songs that are playing. She pulls up to my house and stops.

"Here's my number, call me anytime but since I'm in the studio a lot I recommend texting for a better chance of me answering faster." ~L

"Oh alright thanks again for bringing me to your house even though I was drunk out of my mind." ~Z

"It was no problem and I wouldn't want you to be getting yourself into any trouble on your birthday." ~L

"Yeah I probably would have but still thanks still. Bye I'll call you" ~Z

I wave and get out of the car and up the steps. I walk into my house and see Emily in my living room on Netflix but she looked really out of it.

"Hey Em what's up?"~Z

No answer.

"Emily are you there hellooooo"~Z

No answer.

"HEY EMILY"~Z

"Death must be so beautiful. To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one's head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, and no tomorrow. To forget time, to forget life, to be at peace." ~E

".... Are you okay?"~Z

"What would you define as okay" ~Z

"Not really upset and talking about death at all and not looking like you're completely out of it is what I would say is being okay." ~Z

"Oh........then no I'm not but don't worry about it. Just go to sleep you must be tired." ~E

"Um alright, but are you sure you're good?"~Z

"Yea I'm sure."~E

I don't push her any further and go up to my room. I lay down and get a few more hours of sleep so I can have some more energy.

*A few hours later*

I wake up and check my phone it's 1 o'clock already. I walk downstairs and see that Emily's gone but then when I look at the dining room table and see a few gifts and a note.

'Hey, I figured that since you disappeared last night I would stop by and leave your gifts here.'
