Breaking Barriers

For the first time in forever, I woke up hungover the day after my birthday. I wasn't joking when I said that I never celebrated my birthday and last night I did exactly that.

I pushed the pillow from my chest and sat up, I squinted when I realized I wasn't in

the bed alone.

This is the moment when girls wake up with some guys arm covering them, round there waist or something but no, Cole was on the other side of the bed rolled over with his face scrunched up to the pillow.

As my body got used to the fact that I was actually awake I felt an unwelcomed sensation of nausea.

I shoved the pillow to the side and raced up from my bed and into the bathroom. I shut the door closed and relieved last night's alcohol into my toilet. Brilliant.

After vomiting for the next 2 minutes I instantly felt much better but I could already feel the results of a horrible migraine coming along. " Did I look that gross this morning?" I jumped slightly when I heard Cole.

I looked over to the door that was originally shut and found his standing there with a glass of water and what I assume were some pills.

I shook my head, " I really don't want you to see me like this, I probably look like death" I'm actually glad I haven't looked myself in the mirror yet.

"I don't care, you're allowed to look like that after drinking as much as you did last night," he said walking closer and kneeling down in front of me.

After our brief makeout session last night we ended up at my place along with the girls and kyle, we ended up playing board games which led me to drink way more alcohol than I have ever consumed before.

"I'll let you get freshened up, I'm heading to my flat to do the same but I'll see you later" he finished it off more like a question. I could only nod as I felt another wave of sick coming up.

I was surprised when he kissed my forehead before disappearing out of my room, welcomed with whistles from that outside.

I didn't have the energy to deal with them right now. I ended up being locked in my bathroom for the next hour until I was feeling better, I took a shower before getting dressed into a sweatshirt and cycling shorts.

I stepped out of my room to find Kim, Jess and Ellie all sat in the kitchen. Jess was the first to notice me but she looked even worse than me so she just put her head back down and continued playing this game on her phone.

" well good morning princess had a good sleep," Kim said as she spotted me at the doorway.

Ellie grinned also adding "of course she did, sleeping next to Mr mysterious" I ignored them and went over to make myself a coffee, I needed it.

Since my parents didn't get to see me yesterday I was going over to theirs to have a birthday dinner.

I needed to look somewhat alive. " Nothing happened" I mumbled adding sugar into my mug. Were three teaspoons too much?.

Jess scoffed " what about what happened at the club, he didn't drag you away just to talk" I blushed. I turned around to face them. They all had a knowing look on their faces.

"You kissed didn't you?" Kim said."Oh i know that face, you did more than that didn't you" Ellie said grinning from ear to ear. I slumped down into a vacant chair pushing my mug to my lips.

" we didn't go further than that though" i defended myself, which was the truth. Don't ask me why he was in my bed this morning.

"Why the hell not, that boy is a snaaaaack" Ellie moaned out the last word. Jess hummed quietly in agreement. " I think kissing is a giant leap taking into consideration they hated each other at the start.
