"Good luck today..." my mum encouraged. I could hear the proud tone in her voice, shaky from almost crying. "You're gonna do just fine I know it-"

"Thanks ma." I blushed.

"Now go get em" she chuckled. "I'll be watching from the television. You call me as soon as you can alirght? I love you!"

"I will mum, I love you too!"

I hung up on her, bringing my attention back to Eleanor. She smiled at me, understanding as always. Today was the day of my charity match, and though I've actually been looking forward to it all week, right now just didn't seem like the time. The steady motion of the Limo calmed my stomach a bit but my head ache was killing me.

"How you feeling?" Eleanor sympathized, a caring smirk at the side of her lips. Something about her smile always made me weak.

"I feel like shit babe...." I giggled trying to lighten the mood. I crawled over to her resting my head in her lap trying to get comfortable.

"It's not too late to pull out" she looked down at me, running her finger through my hair. "I just don't want you collapsing out there-"

"I'll be fine" I smiled, stroking my fingers lightly against her cheek. "Maybe I just need to rest for a little bit. Don't worry about me-"

"Babe I'm serious" she leaned over pressing her lips against mine, cupping my face in her hand. "I'm not going to try and convince you to back out, but you better at least promise me that as soon as you feel like falling, you'll stop. Alright?"

"Yeah, yeah" I grimaced playfully getting a chuckle out of her. "I'll survive. I've played hung over before."

"We still got a ways to go, you want to sleep?" she continued playing with my hair. She knew me too well. It was always easier for me to sleep when she did that. "I'll wake you up when we get there-"

"I love you...." I nodded smiling up at her. I closed my eyes puckering my lips excessively, wanting her to kiss me again.

She giggled. "I love you too," her lips met mine and my smile grew. "Now get some sleep goof ball, I'm worried about you."

I sighed, kicking my shoes off and swinging my legs up onto the seat. My head literally felt like it was going to explode. I shut my eyes trying to drown out the pain but it was no use, nothing seemed to work.

"Babe! Get up! We're here-"

What? I slowly began to open my eyes. It didn't even feel like I had slept at all. I felt her shaking me awake but as I came back to reality, the pain in my head only seemed to have gotten worse.

"Fuck-" I groaned, sitting up and cupping my face into my hands. My head was beating even louder than before. What is going on?

"Babe you don't look so good" Eleanor gently rubbed on my back. I felt like I needed to puke. "Maybe you had way too much to drink last night-"
