The Best Days of Our Lives

The First Day of Class... Hungover

Lucy's POV

Levy and I were up every couple hours last night taking turns to vomit in the bathroom...

I have a pounding headache, the sunlight streaming through my curtains is making it worse, and I feel completely drained.

I try to stand but end up shaking and falling to my hands and knees crawling to the bathroom once again to assess the damage of my appearance.

I grab the counter to pull myself to look in the mirror and I almost screamed at the sight in front of me. My hair was sticking straight up in most places, my mascara and eye-shadow from the previous night was smeared all over my face, and I smelled like booze and vomit... calling myself a mess would be an understatement.

I slowly pull myself together and grab a towel from the closet to take a shower. I started feeling a lot better after it, although the headache and queezy stomach probably wouldn't go away until after lunch time.

The clock read 8:00 am... "Seriously?! Already?! I have to hurry before class starts and I can't be late on my first day!" she whined.

"Levy? Are you awake? she whispered as she peeked into the small girls room. Levy had been up just as much as Lucy last night paying the price of their festivities.

Lucy heard a groan from under the pile of blankets on the bed. "Levy it's already 8:00 and class starts at 9:00."

The pile shuffled slightly as Levy attempted to sit up, falling back over when she got a glimpse of sunlight. Lucy giggled at the sight, although she wasn't doing much better.

Levy finally got up and ready, as Lucy was getting dressed and doing her makeup. She didn't feel like putting in a whole lot of effort since she wasn't feeling well, so she decided on her jean skirt with a light blue v-neck shirt and some white sneakers. She put her hair up into a ponytail to keep it out of her face, and settled for minimal makeup.

When she gathered her backpack and everything else she needed, she waited for Levy by the front door. It was already 8:30 by now and it took 10 minutes to get to campus from their apartment.

"Levy are you almost ready to go?" Lucy called.

"Yep I'm coming!" Levy walked out of her room in some dark blue shorts and a white t-shirt with some yellow Vans. She had her yellow backpack on and a blue headband holding back her bangs too. "I'm ready Lu, although I think I'll need some Aspirin before I can really be back to 100%." she giggled while holding her head.

"I agree. Maybe Mira and Erza will have some." They both walked out of their apartment and headed towards Erza and Mira's door.

"Thank you so much! Have a good day!" Mira said cheerfully to the barista. She had woken up early in order to buy coffee and muffins for her fellow members of Group one who were bound to be hungover for their first day of class.

Thank goodness the coffee shop was just across the street of the campus!

"Class starts in ten minutes, I better hurry before everyone gets there..." Mira said to herself.

"We made it!" Lucy gasped, out of breath from running over with Levy and Erza in tow.

They were all out of breath from running from the parking garage to make it to their first class on time. The building was closer than they expected, so they still had a couple minutes to spare to find seats. Lucy spotted Mira towards the back of the classroom with seats saved for them.
