The Hangover

Alex Pov

I woke up startled to the sound of a shower running and like a flash I was hit with a wave of guilt and pain. I have a fucking hangover. I deserve it. I should not have laughed. I should not have let them laugh. She doesn't know how I feel. I couldn't tell her before she ran away. She locked herself in the bathroom... I made them apologize and leave shortly after, but she still didn't come out. I sat on my bed waiting for her to come out, to say sorry to tell her how I felt but she never did. I thought she was only going to be in there for a few minutes, but minutes turned into hours and I must have fallen asleep. After a couple minutes of checking my phone the bathroom door cracks open and Sara walks out with wet hair and a towel on her arm. She scurries across the room to her bag and pulls out a hair tie to put up her hair. I watch as she pulls her hair into a slick back ponytail and leaves out her bangs. She turns around and i start to talk "hey I'm s-" when I'm interrupted by both of our phones going off 

Meet your teachers in the lobby in 5 minutes

We look at each other and start walking to the door. I don't change because I don't care. They can't yell at me for wearing a my chemical romance t-shirt and plaid pajama pants now can they? We lock the door behind us and walk down the hall in silence. Slowly the hall started filling with more and more seniors who had also received the mass text. We get to the lobby to see a row of 8th hour teachers all holding a stack of papers. I sight Mr.Haris and tap Sara, she swings her head around obviously not expecting that as I point to our assigned teacher. We walk over and he hands us a paper. He said something about tour options, I don't know if I wasn't paying attention. I only hear bits of is long speech "stay together" "hotel lobby" "have fun" and just like that we all file back into our rooms, some to sleep, some to lounge, me to fix what I broke. We walk into the room quietly and sit on our beds, I take a deep breath. "Hey, I'm really s- "she interrupts me "nope were not gonna talk about it, I don't want to further embrace myself." She walks into the bathroom without another word. Okay I guess. I will try to talk to her about it later. We get ready and decide to go to breakfast with our friends before going out on the town. I text Jamal and Ameer and tell them to meet us at the "Think coffee" in the town square in thirty minutes, and not to talk about last night while Sara texts Sam and Hannah telling them the same.
