A.J. + E.J.: OPPOSITES ATTRACT

9. I'M UP HERE

EJ

OMG!!!!!!

MY FUCKING HEAD IS HURTING!!!!

I THINK I DID THE MOST LAST NIGHT.

I AM NEVER DRINKING AGAIN.

EVERYTIME I GET DRUNK I SAY THE SAME SHIT AND THEN I END UP DRINKING AGAIN.

IT'S ONLY THE DAMN HANGOVER TALKING.

I tried to lean up but my damn head wasn't having it so I laid back down.

Someone knocked on the guest bed room door.

EJ: WHO IS IT?

TOMAS: IT'S TOMAS.

I'm not gonna lie me and Tomas stayed up long after everyone went to bed.

I learned so much from talking to him.

EJ: COME IN.

The door opened.

Tomas came in the room and closed the door.

He got in the bed next to me and got under the covers (which didn't bother me).

TOMAS: GOOD MORNING.

EJ: I WOULD SAY IT'S A GOOD MORNING, BUT MY HANGOVER IT'S HAVING IT.

TOMAS: I HAVE A SLIGHT ONE MYSELF. IT'S NOT SO BAD THOUGH.

EJ: I DON'T SEE HOW ESPECIALLY SINCE YOU WERE MIXING DRINKS LIKE I WAS.

TOMAS: WE DID KINDA OVERDUE IT. THIS IS OUR PUNISHMENT.

EJ: YOU'RE RIGHT. NEVER AGAIN.

TOMAS: YOU KNOW EVERYBODY SAYS THAT WHEN THEY GET A HANGOVER THEN BE DRINKING AGAIN LATER ON. IT'S A NEVER ENDING THING.

EJ: I WAS JUST SAY SOMETHING SIMILAR IN MY HEAD RIGHT BEFORE YOU CAME IN.

TOMAS: I GUESS GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE.

EJ: I WANT TO GET UP AND FIND SOME COFFEE AND SOMETHING TO EAT. KOURTNEY HAS SO MUCH FOOD IN HER REFRIGERATOR, BUT I THINK ANOTHER NAP WOULD SUFFICE.

TOMAS: IN THAT CASE, CAN I JOIN YOU? I PROMISE I WON'T TOUCH YOU OR ANYTHING.

EJ: I GUESS IT'S OK.

TOMAS: OK.

EJ: OK.

I closed my eyes.

FUCK!!!!

THIS SHIT REALLY HURTS!!!!

I opened my eyes to see that Tomas was sleep.

Damn that was quick.

EJ: (WHISPERING) TOMAS?

He didn't answer.

He's definitely asleep.

Let me get to where he's at.

Maybe I'll feel better when I get up.

I'll talk to y'all then.

AJ

I rose out of the bed....

Wait...

This isn't my bed.

Where the fuck am I?
