When I woke up, I felt sick. My head was throbbing and I felt dehydrated. I groaned.

I looked around. I'm in Jack's room. What? I sat up.

I was about to get up when I realized he was on the floor. He had a little pillow and blanket. For real, what happened?

My stomach gurgled. "Uuuugh" I groaned.

Jack turned over and rubbed his eyes and stretched. He looked at me and smiled.

"Last night was fun, baby. I ended up on the floor." He winked. His voice was scratchy and deep.

Oh my god. What did I do to myself last night? Help.

"Uhhh what exactly, happened?" I felt kind of worried and slightly angry that he probably took advantage of me.

"Oh you don't remember?" He chuckled.

"No I don't. Tell me." I said seriously.

"Well see you had a few of those lemonades, and you got pretty drunk." He smirked.

"Okay, and?" I got nervous.

"And Nash took Ava to go get her car to bring it here and texted your mom that you slept over at Ava's so your parents wouldn't know that you had a hangover. So I brought you upstairs and took your shoes off and put a blanket over you. I went to the bathroom and when I came back, you were laying across the entire bed so I just decided to sleep here." He shrugged his shoulders.

"Really that's it? But you said that you ended up on the floor all seductive-like and-"

"I was kidding." He laughed.

"You let me sleep on your bed? That's so nice." I smiled.

"Yeah no problem."

"I feel horrible." I ran my fingers through my hair and stood up.

"It should go away pretty soon. I can help you get rid of it." He stood up. He was in boxers. I tried not to look down.

"Okay good." I stood up and looked at the clock in the hallway. It's 8am. Why am I awake?

"Sorry I woke up so early I didn't even realize." I said.

"It's totally fine, I don't care." He shrugged.

I looked into a full body mirror by the closet. Have I ever looked this bad before?

"Wow I look like I'm ready to go to a pageant!" I said sarcastically.

"You'd win with a look like that." We both laughed.

I decided that I should probably go to Ava's and shower and brush my teeth and maybe come back.

"Would you mind if I leave for a little?" I asked.

"Oh, yeah sure. Why?" He scratched the back of his head.

"Just to shower at Ava's and make myself look a little more approachable. Probably change out of these clothes."

"No problem. Want me to drive you?" He asked.

"I'm sure wherever Ava is she'll drive me."

"Alright. You gonna come back here?" I felt like he wanted me to.

"Is that okay?" I questioned

"Yeah that's perfect." He smiled.

"Okay I'll go find Ava." I walked out of his room and downstairs.

Oh my god. Ava was entwined with Nash on the couch. That escalated quickly. The boys were all still sleeping.

"Hey Jack?" I walked back into his room.

"Yeah?" He was sitting on the bed. He still had no shirt and boxers on. He looks so good, even with little sleep.

"Maybe you should take me. Ava is basically sleeping on top of Nash right now."

We both laughed.

"Yeah of course I'll take you." He grabbed his keys and started walking downstairs.

"Uh, you gonna drive me in boxers?" I asked.

"Oh shit." He ran upstairs and put on a T-shirt and shorts on.

When we got in the car, I gave him directions to Ava's.

When we got there, Jack opened my door for me. He never stops being cute.

"How are you going to get in?" He asked.

"Spare key. And her parents are at work."

"Oh um, do you have your phone?" He looked at my pockets. I checked.

"I guess not.. can you come pick me up in an hour?"

"Sure. See you then." He hugged me.

I unlocked the door to Ava's and walked inside. Her dog greeted me. I grabbed a towel and put it in the bathroom. I looked in her closet for something to wear. Everything was so girly. I settled for a white t-shirt and dark ripped skinny jeans. I grabbed Ava's black Chacos, which I'm pretty sure are mine.

After showering, I got dressed and blow dried my hair and straightened it. I put on some of Ava's mascara and eyeliner. I brushed my teeth with my toothbrush that I leave here and then put on her favorite strawberry lip gloss. I still felt like crap, but at least I don't look like it. Jack will probably be here in a few minutes.

I heard a loud bang downstairs.

"Ava?" I called from her room. Nobody replied.

I heard footsteps.

"Bryan? Amanda?" I called for her parents.

Someone was coming up the stairs. I closed her door and hid in the closet.

There was banging on the door. I was shaking so bad. I'm going to die. The door creaked open. It was silent.

"RAAAAAHHH" Jack swung open the closet doors and yelled.

"I'm literally going to kill you. I thought I was about to be murdered." I held out my hands to show him how much I was shaking. He laughed for like 30 seconds.

"You left the door unlocked, doofus." He was still laughing.

"YOU ALMOST GAVE ME A HEART ATTACK." I tried to hide my smile but I couldn't. I laughed with him.
