Damn, my head hurts.

Those are my first thoughts of what is soon to be the most confusing day of my life. My head is pounding, and my back and chest feel sore. Oh, and I have no clue where I am. I slowly open my eyes, but snap them shut again, due to the light that just blinded me.

Groaning, I roll over so I'm now laying on my back. I re open my eyes and stare at the black ceiling. I hear someone near my stifle a giggle.

"Where the hell am I?" I ask, not bothering to see who is next to me.

"Charlotte, North Carolina. On the floor of a very nice tour bus, to be exact." The voice is familiar

"Shauna?"

"The one and only." She replies.

I pull myself up, and pluck a bright pink feather out of my hair. I stare at it for a few seconds. Tossing it to the ground I notice the whole floor is littered with the feathers. Snack wrapper, empty cups, makeup, shoes, and an empty bottle of purple hair dye are also strewn about.

Wait.. Purple hair dye?

"Shuana please please tell me my hair is not bright purple." I close my eyes silently praying it's still blonde. She glances between me and the bottle and laughs.

"Don't worry, you're not purple. But I think it is dyed..." At these words I shoot towards the bathroom to look in the mirror. My hair is not bright purple.

But it's different. It has highlights that are a shade or two lighter than my natural color. There's also thin, natural looking streaks of brunette.

Why the hell did I dye my hair? The only time I ever considered changing it was when I was 5 and asked my mom if i could make it rainbow. Thankfully she said no, that would've been a disaster.

The highlights however look good. Really good actually.

Being so preoccupied with my hair I hardly notice that Im covered in paint. It's on my face, hands, basically my whole body. I take a shower and most of it washed off, only leaving a few faded spots on my arms and torso.

I thrown on black skinny jeans, and a loose grey tank top, with a colorful bandeau underneath. I also apply mascara, skin tone lipstick, and wing my eyeliner. My hair I end up putting in a messy but cute bun.

Walking out I see that Christina and Marlene are also awake. They are dressed as well but still look just like I did when I woke up. Ratty hair, last nights makeup, bags under their eyes. Also covered in paint.
I go to sit down, still exhausted. Then I see Mar's hair.

"Um. Marlene, not to alarm you but your hair is purple." I say slowly. She bolts to the bathroom just as I had done. Her whole head is not dyed just a semi-thick streak. It doesn't look too bad. She comes back quickly but when she sees me, she frowns.

"Okay what the hell. Why is it when you dyes your hair it looks amazing and professional. But mine looks like the result of is being bored and wasted."

"Because judging from the stage if this place, that is what happened." Shuana said.

I sit on the couch, cradling my head in my hands. "Dose anyone know what the hell went on last night?" I ask irritably.

I look around to all of them and no one seems to have an answer. Great.

"Wait you guys seriously don't remember what happens last night. Like at all?"Shauna asks.

"I remember laughing. A lot." Chris says. "And I believe there was a bar involved."

" I think there were multiple bars involved." Mar agrees.
My head is spinning. Bars? It all makes sense now. Well, nothing really makes sense at the moment but I understand I'm hungover. I've never had more than 2 drinks at a time before, now last night I got so drunk I don't remember anything?
