Day3- 

I hate hangovers…

Its uncomfortable and sucks and makes me tired. The third day of Gabriel and Johanna being gone is always the worst! It means it’s the last day before they come back, and that we have to stay sober for another month. Fuck them.

I finally woke up around three in the afternoon and then proceeded to drink an entire pot of coffee. Coming out of the bathroom after purging myself five times, Lexi handed me a pair of sunglasses. She had on one of my sweatshirts and a pair of shorts. I couldn’t understand how she was all hyper and…not hungover.

“What the hell is wrong with you?!” I ask, slumping into the couch.

“I dunno,” she replied, “Guess I didn’t drink as much as you,” She poked me in the stomach and I felt like I needed to throw up again. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Though it was probably only light, it sounded as if somebody had put a giant speaker next to my ear and blasted it as high as it would go. I threw a pillow at the door.

“Lexi, go get it!” I whined.

“No way,” she whined back, “COME IN!” she yelled instead.

I threw a pillow at her face, “Lexi! Stop yelling!”

I flopped onto my stomach and closed my eyes. The sound of heels against the floor got closer. I opened my eyes to see pink heels and long, tan legs. My gaze moved upwards to a pair of tight shorts and an almost see through top, long brown hair and…it was Sophia. 

“Sophia, you don’t gotta knock. Just come in. Especially when I have a hangover.”

She giggled, “Okay.”

I groaned again, “Why don’t you feel as shitty as me?!”

“Cause….im an elf.” She had this smile on her face like she was guarding a secret.

“Huh?”

“When you were drunk you thought I was an elf.”

Lexi burst out laughing and then punched me in the arm, “You’re fucked up, Drew.”

I closed my eyes and asked the couch to swallow me. Tell me something I don't know.

I woke up at four, and when I stood up, I heard giggling. I went outside to the pool. Nikola was in it with her friends. Lexi was sitting on the edge, with my sweatshirt still on and her legs dangling in the pool. Sophia, was sitting in the hot tub with Rich and Anthony. The guys already had a beer in their hands. I reached into the cooler and got myself one. The sound of the cap being twisted off was one I was very familiar with.

“Hey, Drew,” Missy came over to the edge of the pool, her arms folded and leaning her rack over them. Beautiful…

“Yo, Miss. Whats up?”

“The sky,” she giggled. My parents might’ve been coming home but not hers…”Come swim with meeee.”

I slipped into the pool, bringing my beer with me. She pushed me up against the edge of the pool and placed her chest against mine. I was goona take another sip but Missy sent her lips crashing against mine. My free hand went underwater, one guess where too. Missy's kiss was sloppy and she was trying to stick her tongue down my throat. She pulled away for a second and I took. The opportunity to drink a little more. As soon as she was goona lean in again, there was a splash and I something smacked her cheek. Water was dripping down her face and there were pieces of balloon in the pool. I looked to the left and Lexi was standing next to the hose with a package of rubber balloons at her feet. She was tossing a small water balloon in her right hand with her left on her waist.

"Oops," she said, "Sorry, Missy. I didn't mean to hit you; but how could I miss a head that monumental rom all her huge ego?"

Missy got angry, she threw her fists into the water and let out a screech at Lexi. I laughed, covered my beer with my thumb and went underwater. I stayed under for a while, not going up until I was sure my lungs would explode.

When I went up, Missy and Ruby were gone.

"They go home?" I asked.

"Yup. Missy wasn't in any shape to drive herself home so she took Ruby with her." Anthony replied, while trying to get closer to Sophia. I jumped outta the pool, grabbed another beer and sat in the hot tub between Sophia and Anthony. I could tell she just wasn't interested in him, so I thought I would save her. I dropped the beer into her hand and she twisted off the cap. Nikola and Gina came over and dunked in as well. Nikola sat in Rich's lap and giggled while he kissed her neck. Lexi, the only one who wasn't getting wet, came over and sat on the edge of the hot tub. I lifted my arm up and gave her a light punch to her shoulder. Then I left it around Sophia's shoulder.

"So what movie are we watching tonight?" Sophia asked.

"The Notebook?" Gina offered.

Lexi made a disgusted sound, "Fine for you three. I'll just watch football with the guys instead. Football is way more fun than the Notebook!" I fist bumped with Lexi.

"How could you say that?" Sophia wondered, "The Notebook is like, the most epic romance ever! Well, except for the Titanic."

"How is The Titanic epic?" Lexi replied, "Like everyone died! Kate Winslet had to live without that Leonardo guy."

"There names are Rose and Jack!" Nikola yelled hastily.

Lexi just shrugged her shoulders.

"Yes! Go, baby! Go!"

"Yes! Yes!"

"TOUCHDOWN!" We all jumped up screaming. Lexi high fived me and the guys. We all sat back down to keep watching the game.

We were all so absorbed in the game and eating cold pizza and beer. When the game went to a commercial we could all hear the sobs of Nikola and Gina and Sophia upstairs.

I groaned at the thought of a sappy love movie.

Day 4

"Kids, we're home."

I inwardly groaned and rolled my eyes. Then I stomped down the stairs to see Nikola hugging Gabriel. He and mom both had big smiles on their faces, and I could have burst out laughing! They didn't even suspect a thing which made the parties even better.

"What did you two do while we were gone?" Gabriel asked.

"Practice, get ready for school, hae a few friends over. Nothing really." I told them. They both smiled, pleased with us and then took their suitcases upstairs.

But in my mind I screamed, What do you think we did?!

"Hey, mom" I said, sitting down on her bed. 

"Hey, baby. What's up?"

"Can Nikola and I go to Texas?" She stopped unpacking and looked up at me.

"There are only two weeks left in the summer! And what on earth for?!"

"A soccer camp."

"Sweetie, no way." She said.

I got this feeling in my stomach. This was something I wanted, and now it seemed more important than before. Maybe I just wanted to piss off Gabriel and Johanna? So I continued, "But this is the year the scouts would be looking at us. Besides, we're way better than any coach around here. The camp in Texas is for players with immense talent. The coaches there called us and asked us to come. So, can we, mom?"

I held her gaze for a few minutes. She looked away and said, "Oh, of course you can! Just go make sure its okay with your father," while resuming putting away her clothes.

I smiled to myself and went to approach dad in the kitchen.

"So I asked mom if Nikola and me could go to a soccer camp in Texas for a week and a half. She said yes. Its really important that we go. Is it okay with you? I held his gaze just like I held mom's, and then, like her, he looked away, "As long as your mother said yes then I don't see a reason why not."

I turned away and walked back upstairs to my room. That feeling in my stomach was gone, in fact, I had never felt so satisfied before.
