The Next Day
Aria's Pov
"Hanna!" Spencer laughs "Don't put it on your mouth!" We all watch as Hanna smears her blue face mask over her lips, being careful as to not get in in her mouth.
"My lips are skin too." She says, trying not to touch them together as she speaks.
"These are face masks not lip scrubs." Emily chuckles, spreading the last of hers on her forehead." The girls and I finally found time that we were all free, so we're having a classic girls night. Face masks, chick-flicks, a little wine. This was much needed, especially since it's been so long since the last time we did this.
"Be right back." Spencer says, standing up from our little circle on the living room floor. I watch her as she walks down the hall and to the kitchen, then comes back with another bottle of wine.
"Nuh uh, no more." I say quickly "I actually have to be productive tomorrow."
"Oh come on Aria, how often do we do this?" She scoffs "The answer is literally never, so give me your glass."
"Spence," I chuckle, holding it away from her "I have to be home by 8am tomorrow to watch my toddler because that's when Ezra leaves for work, I will not be hungover."
"Don't worry," Spencer assures me as she refills her own glass "There will be no hangovers for anyone here, we're all gonna wake up refreshed."
"You don't know that." I reply.
"I'm sending good vibes to the hangover gods." She says "Now come on, don't make me drink alone. Emily will have some more, won't you Em?"
"Why not?" Emily shrugs "I love a good Pinot Grigio."
"That's the spirit!" Spencer exclaims "What about you Hanna Banana?"
"I shouldn't." She sighs "I have to be home for 8:45 at the latest tomorrow morning to stay with Madden."
"You guys are lame." Spencer huffs, taking a swig from her glass.
"No we're not." Hanna defends us "Do you know how hard it is to take care of a toddler all day even with no hangover? Those things don't have an off switch."
"Toddlers or hangovers?" Spencer asks.
"Both." She replies, rolling her eyes.
"Well maybe having a little alcohol in your system will help." Spencer offers only half-jokingly.
"Hey, aren't you supposed to be the responsible one?" I question.
"Not anymore." She grins "You two had babies and suddenly you're old ladies."
"Hey! I am not!" Hanna gasps "Give me that!" She snatches the wine and takes a long sip right from the bottle. Spencer cheers while Emily and I exchange a wide-eyed glance.
"There's the Hanna Marin I know!" Our 'responsible' friend shouts.
"Rivers." Hanna corrects, setting the bottle down "I'm a Rivers now. And holy shit did that feel good." Her and Spencer hi-five, both smiling widely.
"Your turn Aria." Hanna says.
"Seriously, I want to, but I know I'll regret it in the morning." I sigh "And have fun taking care of Madden with that wicked hangover you're sure to get if you keep drinking like that."
"Stop being a Mom for two seconds." Spencer rolls her eyes sarcastically "This is the now, do what you want for yourself at the moment you're in."
