Ride or Die / Happily Ever
After
When I open my eyes, there's a loud rattling sound and a slight shaking motion.
I sit up and look around, realising that I'm on a train.
I wince and rub my eyes as the bright sun shines directly through the window.
When I look down I notice that I have a neon green paper wristband on, meaning I spent the night partying, which explains the awful headache.
I look out the window once again and realise that I don't really recognise where I am.
"Hey, sir, are we on the north side?" I ask the man who's sat near me.
He looks me up and down with disgust, before returning his attention back to his newspaper.
"Fuck me." I sigh and throw my head back.
After what seems forever, the train finally stops at the south side again and I get off.
I'm almost at the house when I see Monica and Frank walking towards me.
"Hey." Monica smiles.
"Shit." I mutter.
"Awh, honey. You look like shit." She says as I get closer.
"Looking like a chip off the old block there, kid." Frank chuckles.
"Did you go on a bender alone?" Monica questions.
"Fuck off." I respond.
Monica follows me up to the front steps, "Booze bums you out. Change chemicals. Next time we'll all get shitfaced together."
"I'd rather drink my own piss." I reply.
"Try a speedball after a bender. Next day, you'll be moving like a pro." Frank laughs.
I open the door and walk into the house, slamming it shut again after me.

Less than an hour later, I walk into Patsy's, even though I'm already twenty minutes late for my shift.
As I make my way into the back, I can see Mandy closely watching me.
As soon as I put on an apron and pick up a pile of dishes, I accidentally drop the plates, causing them all to smash and break.
As I reach down to clean it up, I end up cutting my hand, "Ow, fuck!"
I walk over to the first aid kit and open it. And what a surprise, a bunch of scattered plasters fall out.
As I bend down to pick them up, Ari, an other waitress, comes over and helps.
"Thank you." I say.
"Rough night?" She questions.
"That is a massive understatement." I respond before asking, "Have you got anything? Adderall? Weed?"
