"Mmm." I whined as my eyes fluttered open.

I laid with my legs wrapped around Moani. I snickered. I was always known for being a cuddler especially when I was drunk.

I sat up and my hangover hit me like a train. My headache started to grow. I stood up from the bed and stretched letting out a yawn.

I walked around the room in search of my purse. I honestly hoped I brought it with me. Tucked away in a corner I snatched my channel purse up and searched for my phone and ibuprofen.

I pulled my phone out and attempted to turn it on but nothing happened, "Dead." I said aloud causing Moani to squirm.

"Sorry sweets." I whispered.

I pulled out my charger and ibuprofen. I then plugged my phone up and walked out of the room in search of a bathroom.

Eventually, I found one and it was bright and spacious. It was mainly white and turquoise. The first door opened up to a white-marble tiled floor, the walls were painted a crisp white, with turquoise shelves decorating them, followed by a large vanity with lights at the top. Behind the second door a large window that covered half the wall in stood in which a bathtub sat in front of it followed by a shower and toilet.

After looking at everything in awe I put down my ibuprofen and picked up some mouth wash. I gargled it and took my long shower.

I stepped out and grabbed a towel from one of the shelves and wrapped it around my small frame.

I opened the door and caught a half-naked Hakeem holding and squinting at my bottle of ibuprofen.

I snatched it out of his hand, "Uh, do you mind? " I asked furrowing my eyebrows and he did nothing but stare at me in shock.

"I-i Uh I didn't know it was yours. Uh sorry." he analyzed me and I pulled my towel tighter.

I didn't even look that good. My hair was a curly wet mess. But, my body was glistening from that shower. Maybe, that's what it was. I found this odd because he's seen so many half-naked girls in his day.

"Well, are you going to move? So I can get out." I motioned with my hands.

He bit his lip and looked as if he was blushing. I scoffed as he slowly moved out of my way.

I opened the door and walked straight to Moani's room and closed the door. She was sitting in her bed texting.

"Ugh, your brother is weird." I shook my head and she rolled her eyes strongly.

"What's the attitude about?" I asked leaning on her dresser.

"Girl, He is a hot mess you literally won't understand what I saw last night." She put her phone down and looked at me.

I could tell she was not only mad but disgusted.

"Hm, I barely remember anything from last night but you and that boy seemed cool. What happened?"

"Uggggghhhh!" She grunted. "Girl everything was going great... well not great but okay-"

A knock echoed through the room, "What boy?" I asked already knowing who it was.

"Yo, you left ya panties in the restroom. That shit nasty."

Hmm, so he can talk clearly when he doesn't see my face...

"Okay? And? Leave em there don't act like a girl ain't never left her underwear in your room before." I stated as I tried to hide my embarrassment.
