Shailene's POV

Knock knock

Brzzztt brzzztt

The vibration of my phone on my nightstand mixes with the knocking on my door wakes my body up. But not my eyes. They are still closed and not going to open in one hour. My hand is moving all over the nightstand blindly searching for my phone.

Got it. I turn off the alarm clock and go back to sleep. Second passes and my brain doesn't want to go back to sleep. My brain and my body are fighting. My body wants me go to sleep but my brain wants me to check the person outside and quickly reminds me one of my rules. It is a rule that no one knocks on my door unless it is important. That means I have to open my eyes and go check this person out. Ugh.

I crack open my eyes and the throbbing on my head starts.

Shite!

Just how much I drank alcohol last night?

The throbbing doesn't stop, it goes everywhere, left to right, up and down.

From today, I, Shailene Woodley, will not drink alcohol anymore until the filming finished.

The first mission succeeds, the second mission is to go check out the door. Speaking of the devil who knocks on my door, there is a probability that the devil is my neighbour. I guess he or she wants to greet me, being a good and nice neighbour.

My devil side says if I ignore it, maybe he or she will go away.

Knock knock knock

Or maybe not.

I groan loudly, I don't care if he or she can hear me. Perhaps they will think I have a tiger as a pet and I don't want to be disturbed. The moment my feet reaches the floor, my body sways to the left. God, I don't think I'm gonna survive the journey to my door. I keep my hand holds the wall to steady my body and I walk to the left.

I trip over one box, my head bumps the wall hard. I think a bruise will appear on my forehead. Because of the bump, my head gets cleared and I just realized that I haven't unpacked all my things. Zoë and Amy tricked me to join their girl's night. They promised to help me unpack but the box they unpacked was only the food one.

Thinking about this makes me mad, and there is another problem, a visit that I don't need at all. I unlock the door, open it, and set my tone harsh, "What?"

Finally see the person who visits me and all I can do is staring back with my mouth gaping open like a fish.

THEO freaking JAMES is the devil who gives me a visit.

Fml. I want to bury myself to death. Why does he always see me at my worst state?? I'm sure that my hair is totally messed up, my lipstick... my mascara...oh my God, don't even think about it.

I guess he is also surprised to see me, in my current state, his shocked face and gaping mouth tell me so.

"Um.. hi? What are you doing here?" I ask him, trying to act casual by leaning on my door frame. I must look like an awkward seals.

He doesn't reply my question, instead he is pushing me back to my apartment until we reach the living room. He makes me sit on my sofa then leave me there hanging. This happens so fast that I am still processing what the hell is happening, my brain seems frozen. He goes to my kitchen and comes back with a glass of water and a strip of pills. He pops one of the pills and gives it to me.
