(I love you too....)
A voice resonated in his head.
--
Tom suddenly awoke to a dark room. His head hurt, and he didn't know what time it was.
How did I get here? - he asked himself as he sat up. - All I remember is being with Shizuo at the bar and drinking... a lot -
What was the ocasion anyway? - he failed to remember
He got up to check past his courtains. He flinched at the bright sun outside. It was about noon.
He was closing the courtains as he wondered how he got home safely last night
- Must've been Shizuo - he thought - he's carried my drunk self home before.
He felt nauseous and unwell.
- I guess this is gonna be hangover day.
He got up to the kitchen, drank some water and went back to bed. Then he looked at the ceiling, trying to remember the events from last night. There were flashes of moments, he pictured himself singing the national anthem - again? *sigh*... why do I always do that?
He turned to the side and noticed something weird. There was a blond hair on his pillow.
Did I... bring a girl home with me?? - he thought - Did I get lucky and then blacked out? That's unfortunate
He then noticed he was wearing his pijamas, which really confused him. How did his drunk self manage to undress without collapsing on the bed mid-task? Or did the girl dress him up? Was there even a girl in the first place?
Tom looked at the pillow again. A single blond hair. As much as he tried, he couldn't remember this girl at all. He sniffed the pillow, but it didn't smell like perfume or lotion...
It smelt like...
Shizuo
A flash of a moment. A whisper. - Sleep with me tonight
Tom blushed and covered his head with the pillow. -aaaaaaaaaah- he exclaimed as he rolled around the bed - what happeneeeeeed?
Did Shizuo sleep with him? Did anything happen? Did he confess his feelings for him?
These questions really needed an answer. There's no way Tom could have a normal day if they remained a mystery.
- Should I call him?
He grabbed his phone and stared at Shizuo's number, but he couldn't bring himself to call.
Aaghhh - he growled - why did I drink so much!?
Then it hit him. The reason they were celebrating, and the reason he got drunk: Shizuo had his first blind date, and they really hit it off.
It was Tom himself that set them up, and he was happy to do so, but when Shizuo (after a lot of pressure) told Tom that they kissed at the end of the date, Tom started to feel really weird. He thought enough alcohol could make the feeling go away, but he just ended up blacking out and generally being an inconvenience for everyone, specially Shizuo.
Why am I so stupid - he exclaimed, throwing his phone away
He suddenly felt extremely nauseous, and ran to the bathroom to puke.
You earned this - he told himself as he vomited - this is what you are. A pathetic alcoholic
It was then that the doorbell rang, Tom got up quickly and looked at himself in the mirror. He looked like shit
