Beauty and The Beast

Chapter 1

Darkness.

Pure darkness was all I saw.

I opened my eyes slowly as to adjust to the bright sunlight coming in from the window.

Suddenly, a pounding headache hit me. It felt as if my head was being split open and cut into two with an axe.

My temples were throbbing and my head felt like it was going to explode any minute.

''Oww!'' I exclaimed, holding my forehead.

I looked around the room in utter confusion.

Where am I?

A headache plus a blank memory; not the best combination.

''Hey baby'' a voice whispered beside me.

He kissed my shoulder.

Now, I remember. I went for a party last night and got laid.

''Hi" I said "I would really love to stay but I have school''

I got up and started wearing my clothes. When I was done, I quickly used my phone to text one of my best friends.

Me: Hey, can you come pick me up where the party was held?

''You said you were in college'' he raised his eyebrows.

I smiled sweetly at him and batted my eyelashes.

''I lied''

He laughed and shook his head.

''Typical high school girls''

Bestie: Yes ma'am

Me: Thank you!

I grabbed all my belongings in preparation to leave as soon as I could. I desperately tried to remember everything I came here with; my phone, sneakers and jacket. I guess that's all.

''I had fun last night'' he said.

''I'm not surprised''

''You wanna do it again? Maybe you could give me your number''

''Sorry honey but I don't go back to lick my own vomit. A one night stand is a one night stand''

I blew him a kiss before leaving the room.

I made my way out of the house, carefully walking past the hungover people on the living room floor.

Gross!

I spotted a pink car at the corner of the street. I squinted my eyes to see who was inside the car but the glasses were tinted. Could she have gotten here so fast?

My friend rolled down the windows and waved at me.

''Thank goodness'' I sighed.

I crossed the road and got into her car as quickly as I could.

"Thank you so much for coming" I said as I strapped my seat belt.

"You're welcome. You're ready to go?"

"Yes"

She started the engine and we were off with full speed.

''How was the party?' she asked.

''Great! You missed out''

''Living the life, I see''

''You said it''

''I got some spare clothes for you at the back. You could change in the restroom at school''

I put my hand on my chest ''Bless the day I met you''
