Ava's POV

Sara: can I assume you saw your chest?

My heart sped up. I get really nervous in awkward situations and I'm glad that this is over text and not face-to-face.

Me: Yea I saw them.

I typed "I'm not mad though, it's not a big deal." And just before I got to send it Sara sent something.

Sara: I'm sorry. I took advantage of your drunkness and that wasn't fair. if it makes you feel any better nothing happened and the hickeys were a complete accident

I didn't really have a response. I don't think this is the type of situation I need an apology for but I'd accept it anyway.

Me: It's fine really. We were both drunk, it's not a big deal. Plus none of them are visible if I wear a T-shirt so we're all good.

I didn't want Sara to feel like she was at fault in this situation. I also didn't want working with her to be awkward so I tried to just clear the air as soon as possible.

Sara: are you mad?

Me: No I'm not.

Sara: are you sure? because when people say they aren't mad 9 times out of 10 they are mad

Me: This isn't one of those times. I'm seriously not mad.

Sara: so we're all good?

Me: All good.

Sara: alright see ya Tuesday beautiful

I just left the conversation at that having no reason to reply.

Time skip to Tuesday morning

The devil himself wakes me up in the form of an alarm clock blaring from my nightstand. I groan clicking it off and putting my face back into my pillows. I've never been a morning person which my parents find weird because I love going to school. Not to see people but to learn the curriculum. When I'm struggling with a subject and everything finally snaps into place is one of the best feelings for me. But for all of that to happen I have to get up.

I huff and swing my legs off my bed slapping my feet on the cold floor. I'm too tired to even be bothered by the feeling. Sunny meows loudly at me letting me know she's hungry. I pick her up and when I open my door Rascal gets up from his laying position on the ground. He hasn't come in my room since Sara and I took him a bath Saturday night so he's been sleeping out here the last two days. I give them both food and water then walk back into my room to get ready. I get a white T-shirt and black skinny-ish jeans. I strip down and put my jeans on. I look in my mirror to look at the hickeys. They have barely lightened up since I got them but it's whatever because I don't show my chest very often. I slip my shirt on and walk to my bathroom to do my morning routine. Brush my teeth, floss, use mouthwash, wash my face, clean my ears, and brush my hair. I get my phone from my pocket to check the time. I woke up on my first alarm today so I still have over an hour until school starts. I text Amaya asking if she wanted to get breakfast or if she was going to eat at home then I put on my socks. I rummage through my closet to find my white converse but I could only find one so I went with my black slip on Vans. I pull an orange hoodie off of a hanger in my closet and my phone buzzes in my pocket.

Amaya💜: Chick-fil-A?

Me: I'll be there in 10, be ready.

I grab my charger and headphones put them in my bag which I swing over my shoulder. I put Rascal outside and fill up his water bowl out there. I grab my keys off the counter and pet sunny a little bit before I leave.
