Jill's P.O.V:

School was awful I'm never drinking on a weekday again. I had a massive hangover and had to leave by second period. Thankfully I'm ahead in most of my classes. Ellie, Dave and Charlotte will lend me today's notes. I just woke up from a long nap and feel a lot better. I reach for my phone from my bedside table and go through my Instagram. As I scroll through the pics, I realise there's still one option I didn't explore yet. Niall.
Niall is as soft as cotton candy. I bet I could easily persuade him to get me to the Caelian Hill.
I nearly bust from excitement as I ring Joey.

"Jill."

"Hey Joey!" I squeal.

"Hey, someone's full of beans." He laughs. "What can I do for you?"

"I need to speak with Niall urgently, I know he works out at your dads gym and I was wondering if-"

"Jill my dad and I are not on the best of terms you know I don't go around there." Joey sighs.

"Not ever?" I ask hopefully.

"You know that." He tells me.

"But Joey-"

"You could ask Peter. I'm sure he'd love to take you."

"Isn't he at campus now?"

"He got home early today and I'm sure he's heading there around about now."

"I'd much rather have you take me."

"I know but-"

"It's okay I know Joey. Thanks anyway. I'll ring Peter now."

"Alright,then love. Have a good one."

"See you tomorrow." I sigh hanging up. I don't really know if texting Peter is a good idea. He'll treat this as a second date and that's not fair to him but what other choice do I have.....

Me: *Can I take you up on that offer now?*

He replies within seconds.

Peter: *Which one exactly? ;)*

Me: *Been feeling a bit sluggish and I believe you know of a really good gym?*

Peter: *Aye I do. When should I pick you up?*
Peter: *Wait aren't you at school young lady?*

Me: *Nope. I'll be ready in 10, pick me up from my house?* 

Peter: *Okay x.*

I slip out of bed and my head actually doesn't feel as heavy as it did this morning. I walk over to my wardrobe and open it trying to find the least revealing gym outfit I have. I settled for a white tee, black yoga pants and I slip on my black trainers. I quickly plait my long hair and then scamper down the staircase. Not wanting any of the staff to see me. Father was really specific about me staying in bed since he doesn't know about the hangover, he thinks I'm proper sick.

After about 5 minutes Peters car pulls up and his chivalry never seizes to amaze me. He gets out of the car and opens the door for me. I thank him with a smile and get in.
"So." He says when he gets into the car. "Why aren't you at school?"

"Um I had a hangover from going out last night, so school wasn't in the cards for me today."  I tell him.

"And how you feeling now?" Peter worryingly scans his eyes over my face.

"Much better I slept it off." I smile.

"So what made you wanna reconsider my offer?" He raises his eyebrows.
