Accidentally In Love

Chapter 5

As soon as I woke up, I realized my head was throbbing. Luckily,today is a Sunday so I can sleep in.

I have no idea what happened last night. Then suddenly, I remembered "I like Alex...blue eyes...nice." After that I realized who I had said that too. JAKE!!! I am as good as dead now. If Jake knows that means Alex knows and then the whole school will come to know. Can I convince mom to homeschool me? All these thoughts increased my headache. I looked over to the side table and saw Advil and a glass of water.

I removed my phone from the charger and saw tons of message from Brooke and Stacy on our group chat. The first few were them asking where the hell I was. There was a reply from my number which I most definitely do not remember typing.

Brooke: Where the hell r u Addison?!

Stacy: I swear I'm gonna kill u. I was nicely getting drunk but then Brooke said u were nowhere to be found.

Me: Guys don't worry I'm fine. Jake's driving me home.

Brooke: Jake?

Stacy: I hope I can see you in one piece tomorrow.

Okay,I know I was very drunk and all but I definitely didn't type that. This at the moment,is the least of my worries.

I quickly got under the hot shower and scrubbed my skin. The shower calmed me down a bit. Just a bit. I was not going to step out of the house today whatsoever. If I could I'd never leave my house ever again.

I wore my black sweatpants and a white top and went down for breakfast. Mom and Emma were already seated at the table.

"Good morning! How was the party?" Emma asked stuffing her mouth with cereal.

" It was alright."

" Why did you come back home with Jake? Didn't you go with Stacy and Brooke?"mom questioned sipping her coffee.

" Umm..I actually got a little drunk and I had no idea where Stacy and Brooke were. So Jake offered a ride home."

Both of them hummed in response. After breakfast I went up to my room and finished my essay. It wasn't due till Thursday,but I always make it a point to finish my homework within the first two days of it being given.

A few hours later Brooke and Stacy walked in.

"Hangover?" my mom asked from in front of the TV.

" The worst" Stacy said rubbing her head. Brooke looked comparatively better. "Room. Now" saying this Brooke ran up the stairs.

" What's going on?" I asked shutting the room door.

" So basically, I started talking to Peter and we ended up kissing." Peter is the only other guy on the football team who I would consider decent. He's actually pretty nice.

"Well do you like him?" Stacy voiced my question.

Brooke smiled " Yeah. He called me in the morning and asked me out on a date."

"Yay! Okay. Now Addison. Why the hell did you come home with Jake? Wait,before that,why were you even talking to him,I thought you didn't like him?" Stace said this all in one breath.

" About that. Guys I really messed up. I was so drunk last night. I told Jake about my feelings for Alex..."

" And if Jake knows,then Alex knows and eventually the whole school" I was cut off by Brooke.

" Yeah." Just then my phone buzzed. It was a text from Alex. Shit! Both of them saw who it was and told me to open the message.

Alex: Hey. I saw you heading home with Jake and jus wanted to check if u reached back in one piece.

Me: Yeah. I'm fine.

"That's good right. He has no idea about it" Brooke said.

" Yeah. For now. But it doesn't make sense. Why has Jake not told him yet? He never misses a chance to mess my life." This was definitely new.

We fell into silence for 2 whole minutes." Isn't your date in like two hours? Did you get your clothes?" I suddenly remembered.

" Yes and no." Brooke said checking the time.

We rummaged through my closet for quite some time before finding the right outfit. Faded blue slim jeans and black spaghetti tank top. Her hair was left straight. She paired her outfit with grey flats. She looked amazing.

Peter came to pick her up from place. He stared at her in awe.

"U...wow" that's all he could say.

"Thanks" Brooke said, her face turning slightly red.

Half an hour,after Brooke left,Stacy headed home too. Mum was called in for a surgery so she'll be home a little late. For dinner, Emma ordered pizza which didn't take us long to finish. We left a few slices for mom.

I had nothing else left to do,so decided it was best to sleep. Just when I lay on the bed,my phone buzzed.

Moron: Hey princess!

Me: Moron. U still have my number?

Moron: aww, I knew you loved me. Besides we were arguing 2 weeks back via text.

Me: why didn't you tell Alex?

Moron: About your undying love for him? ;)

Me: Jake I'm serious

Moron: Relax. Meet me tomorrow in the parking lot after school is over.

Me: Why?U wanna kill me?

Moron: Good night princess

I know for a fact that some shit is gonna happen tomorrow. One can only hope...
