I turned over, groaning.

I opened my eyes slowly, looking at my bedside clock.

Almost noon.

I groaned again. I missed my first class. What the fuck, man.

I sat up, swung my legs over, and walked to the bathroom.

I should try to make my last class of the day, but really what's the point?

I'm a good girl, I swear. I go to class all the time. I just overslept.

Me and my boyfriend, Chris, just overdid it last night.

Oh, did I mention I'm a bit hungover?

My name's Katlinn Michaels. But because I hate the way it sounds, everyone calls me Kat. I'm not 'drop-dead gorgeous' as some would say.

Mostly Chris.

I just have normal long, auburn hair, with brown eyes, that apparently change color in the sunlight. Whatever.

I step into the shower, as my alarm shoots back on, blasting Aerosmith, as usual.

Wasn't that thing supposed to come on to wake me up in time?

After I shower, I wrap myself in a towel, and walk out of the bathroom.

I jump back a little in shock, before I speak.

"Um, what the hell are you doing here?" I say, looking at my best friend, just nonchalantly chilling on my couch.

She smiles, looking at me.

"You didn't come to class, so I came here."

I rolled my eyes playfully at my best friend. Me and Vic have been best friends since middle school. We just were lucky to end up applying and getting accepted to the same college. Just to clear things up, her real name is Victoria, but she goes by Vic, or Vicky, if she's feeling nice. She thinks Victoria is too circa-1900s.

She is the complete opposite of me. She does whatever she wants, when she wants. She's wild, that's for sure. She's trying to teach me her ways. I'm trying to learn. That's why she's my best friend.

"So, why did you miss class this morning? Professor Hart asked me where you were." Vic says.

I chuckle lightly. "Just overslept. That's all."

Vic eyes me suspiciously, not believing a word I said.

"You were with Chris all night. Don't worry, I won't spill your dirty little secret."

I stare at her in shock for a moment, trying to hide my blush.

When I don't reply right away, Vic continues, "I really don't know how you guys have stayed together for a year. And I also really don't know how your anniversary is today."

My face tells her everything.

She lets out a laugh, clapping her hands.

"You forgot, didn't you, Kat?" She asks.

"Psssh...no. You just reminded me." I sighed.

"Because you forgot." She states, looking at me with a raised eyebrow.

I laugh, waving her off. "Okay, okay."

"Well, what are you guys' plans to celebrate?"

I take a breath, "I'm not sure..Chris hasn't told me yet. I'm sure he will."

Just then, there was a knock on my door. Speak of the devil.

I walk over to the door and open it.

My face lights up, as Chris kisses me.

"Hey babe. Nice outfit." He says with a laugh.

I look down, and realize I'm still wrapped in a towel.

"Give me a minute."

I rush to my bedroom, and throw on some sweats, and a t-shirt.

I come out and Vic is standing up, and Chris is sitting down.

"You leaving?" I ask Vic.

"Yeah, unfortunately. My last class is in 30 minutes."

We hug each other, and she leaves.

I sit down next to Chris.

"Hey babe. Happy one year anniversary." He says, pulling me in his arms.

I giggle, as he places a kiss on my cheek.

"You too. What are we doing today?"

Chris smiles the smile I love. "Not today. Tonight. It's a surprise."

"Oh, is it?" I reply.

He looks down at me. "Yes it is. So just dress sexy, and I'll pick you up at 8."

I smile, pulling his head down so his lips can meet mine.

It's our one year, and I'm gonna celebrate it the way I like to.
