Chapter Nineteen

"Where am I?" Sela groaned as she opened her eyes and slowly sat up.

"Ow," She winced as she felt the migrate headache throbbing and immediately clutched her head.

Sela suddenly realized something and swiftly looked around the place that was not her and Amu's apartment.

Did she went home with some random stranger and slept over. Her eyes widen and swiftly looked down at herself. She sighs in relieve when she's still wearing her clothes from yesterday. Well at she least she didn't wake up in bed with a guy next to her.

Still, she questioned who did she went home with. The place was kind of familiar so she knew it has to be someone she knew.

Sela closed her eyes and tried to recalled what happened yesterday. She remembered going to the bar for a drink to clear her mind, but she wasn't alone. Tusk was there.

"But, how did I get there?" she wondered aloud. Suddenly, she gasped as more memories flooded her. She recalled Tusk snatching her drink away and carried her bridal style out of the bar.

He must have brought her back to his place since he couldn't bring her back to her apartment because of Amu. 

"Amu?" She face-palmed herself. "She must be very worry about me. I didn't even call her".

Sela pushed herself up from the couch and tried to walked, but stumbled and nearly hit the floor when someone caught her.

She looked up and surprised to see who caught her. "Tusk?"

"Are you alright?" He asked in concerned.

"I'm okay, just a migrate headache," She groaned and steady herself.

Tusk helped Sela sat back down on the couch and gave her a cup.

"What is this?" Sela stared at the cup and then at Tusk.

"It something to help with your hangover and to ease your migrate headache," Tusk replied.

"Thank you," Sela took a sip of the drink and made a disgusting face before finishing the rest of the drink. Then she placed the cup down on the table and noticed the bowl of water with the damp towel in it.

She sighs and looked at Tusk. "How much did I embarrass myself? What did I do?"

"You didn't do anything that's embarrassing," Tusk replied.

"Are you sure?" Sela asked with uncertain.

Tusk nodded. "You did told me about what was bothering you". He recalled what happened last night.

Sela placed her head in her hands. "I can't believe I told you".

"At least you felt better after you told me," Tusk pointed out.

"I guess," Sela lifted her head up and sightly smiles at Tusk. She then got up from the couch. "I should get back to my apartment. Amu must be really worry about me". She grabbed her stuff off the floor beside the couch. "I can't believe I left her alone".

"She wasn't alone," Tusk interrupted her.

Sela stopped what she was doing and looked over at Tusk. "What do you mean, she's not alone?"

"Yamato was with Amu all night to keep her from freaking out about you're not coming home," Tusk explained. "Amu doesn't know that you were drunk. All she know was that you spend the night at a friend house. That's all".

"Oh, I guess I owe you and Yamato," Sela said a minute later and was about to leave when Tusk stopped her.

"Sela?"
