I stumbled through the empty park, swinging the half empty vodka bottle in my hands. Drinking away my problems, although they're never gone, just momentarily forgotten.
"AND WE DANCED ALL NIGHT TO THE BEST SONG EVERRRRR"I shouted not hitting any of the notes, I was surprised I remembered the line. I was that drunk.
"Mel is that you?"Luke's confused voice asked as I sat down on the children's swing set.
"Well it's not not me"I laughed to myself swinging my legs back am forth.
"Are you drunk?"he asked sitting on the swing next to me.
"Noooo"I giggled, taking another long swig from the bottle.
"Mel what's up?" Luke asked hesitantly looking over at me I just looked away, over towards the never ending rooftops.
"Nothing"digging my feet further into the wood chip on the floor.
"Really?"he asked taking the bottle of me "because the empty half here is just a big fat nothing"he said raising his eyebrows.
"Hey give that back!"I shouted launching myself towards Luke but falling straight to the ground.
"Shit Mel, are you okay?"he asked. I just laughed hysterically to myself. "How much have you had?"he asked worried. I just continued to laugh.

I woke up and opened my eyes slightly, the light making my head feel eight times worse. I groaned and turned over trying to feel more comfortable. But I quickly realised that this definitely wasn't my bed.
I bolted up taking in my surroundings. The walls where white with a couple of old band posters. I definitely didn't recognise it. Not that I could concentrate due to the thumping in my head. I fell back onto the ridiculously comfy bed. I couldn't remember anything from last night, well not after buying a bottle of vodka from the off license.
I heard footsteps coming up the stair and I would be lying if I said I wasn't scared. When Luke walked into the room I relaxed until I realised what I was wearing, or rather what I wasn't.
Why the hell was I only in my underwear in Luke's bed? I wish I could remember what happened last night. Luke gave me a slight smile before sitting next to me.
"I got you a glass of water and some painkillers"Luke smiled passing me the glass and the box of painkillers.
"You're a better mum than mine"I mumbled knocking back a painkiller and half the water. I lent back into Luke's chest and he reluctantly wrapped his arm around me. "Your hands are freezing"I giggled as his hands brushed against my stomach. Which quickly made me remember my lack of clothing. "Quick question"I mumbled
"You want to know what happened last night"Luke laughed, although right now I wasn't seeing the funny side. I just nodded and hoped he'd go on. "Well you were in the park last night very drunk and I offered to take you home but then you were screaming and crying about how you couldn't go home. So I didn't know what to do and brought you here"he said hesitantly. I felt mortified, I was such a class A fuck up.
"I so sorry"I mumbled into Luke bed sheets which I was now hiding in. "I'm such a fuck up, I'm really sorry"I apologised again.
"Stop apologising and get up. We have school"he laughed. I momentarily forgot my lack of clothes until Luke had forcefully remove the bed sheets from on top of me.
"We didn't.....?"I trailed hoping he'd get what I meant. From the way he looked me up and down and then smirked I was guessing he knew what I meant. He reaction made me considerably worried.
"No"he laughed. I instantly felt relived. "You refused to sleep in your clothes, they're over there"he said pointing to a cabinet which my clothes were on top of. I felt awful and it wasn't just the throbbing in my head. "Anyway we have 15 minutes"he mumbled before leaving the room.
I quickly fumbled around trying to get dressed before drinking the rest of the water Luke had given me. I stood in front of the mirror desperately trying to put my tie on. 7 years of having to wear it and I still couldn't so it properly. "Fuck" I mumbled to myself as ended up exactly how I'd started for the third time.
"Need some help?"Luke chuckled I looked over to see him leaning casually against the doorframe. I didn't say anything, I just raised my eyebrows. He laughed again before helping me. I turned back to the mirror and studied my appearance. My face was pale and my eyes resembled a panda's, I looked hungover.
"Can I borrow these?"I asked picking up a pair of sunglasses off the cabinet next to me.
"Sure, if you want to look fucking stupid"he shrugged. Although he was right. It was October, the sunglasses season was definitely over.
"I'd rather look 'fucking stupid' than hungover"I mumbled before putting the glasses on. I did look pretty stupid. Luke looked at me confused.
"Why?"he asked
"Because people who drink on Mondays are either severely lonely or alcoholics"I shrugged and gave me a confused look before leading the way out of his room.

I'd managed to ignore people until 3rd period. I was rudely interrupted from sleeping on the table, by someone slamming a book down on the table. I jolted up quickly to be met by Katie's eyes piercing into mine, not that she could see mine through the sunglasses.
"What happened to you yesterday? I've called you like 20 times"she asked raising her eyebrows at me. "And why are you wearing those ridiculous glasses?" She asked sitting down across from me.
"They're not mine"I mumbled putting my head back onto the table.
"Who's are they?"she asked pulling them off my face. I just shrugged looking over towards her general direction. "You're hungover!"she shouted with a disappointed "where were you last night and why didn't you answer your phone?"she asked lowering her tone.
"My phone ran out of battery"I mumbled with my face now back on the table.
"And you didn't charge it because?"she asked I could tell she was getting angry with me, I loved Katie but she had the shortest temper.
"I didn't exactly make it home"I said as quietly as possible. Katie gave me a confused and slightly shocked look.
"Then where were you?"She asked hesitantly. I just shrugged and went back to lying on the table. She gave me a glare. "You must remember something!"she shouted at me. "Like where you woke up?"she asked slightly sarcastic, I could tell she was really losing her patience, and to be so was I.
"Luke's"I hissed. I just wanted her to leave so I could sleep. She gave me a disgusted look. I just shrugged again.
"Are you really that stupid?"she laughed. Great, now I was about to get a lecture about all the mistakes I make, sometimes she was worse than my fucking mum.
"Stupid?, I'm stupid. Jesus I'm so fed up of people trying to 'look out for me' or 'stop me for making another mistake' because you know what I'm capable of making my own fucking decisions"I shouted, before picking all my stuff up off the floor and storming out of the common room.
