*ring ring ring*

I shot up, squinting my eyes and taking in the unfamiliar surrounding. What the hell happened last night? I grabbed my phone and looked at the screen, it's 9am and uuuuugh my dads calling me. As I was about to answer the call he hung up, probably wasn't important anyway.

I stood up from the couch I was passed out on and immediately got hit with a whiff of sweat and alcohol. My head was banging and my eyes were so strained by the light that shine though the house. The room I'm assuming the lounge-room, was covered with empty beer bottles and red cups. There were about 10 other bodies in here all deep in their slumber. I need to get out of here before they all get up and decide to put me on cleaning duty. I cringed at the idea.

I tried my best to jump over bodies and trying to avoid any possible noise to make my leave as quick and easy as possible.

*ring ring ring*

I jumped and stubbed my toe on the coffee table that was miraculously in the hallway. "OW" I shouted before quickly putting my hands over my mouth. I scanned the area and thankfully no one woke up. I ran to the door and made my way out to the yard. The state of the yard was so much worse than inside. Empty kegs scattered across the lawn and toilet paper? All up in the trees. I laughed to myself, last night must've been rowdy.

*ring ring ring*

Again?! Who the fuck is calling me? I looked down, it was my father once again. I hesitantly hovered over the screen and finally had the guts to accept the call. I feel like I was in for a belting.

"Hel-"

"WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU MCKENNA" my dad cut in, me pulling my phone away from my ear, his yelling only making my headache worse

"YOU'RE LATE"

"....late for what?" I questioned, to be fair my head wasn't in its right place at this moment. Whatever plans were made clearly wasn't gonna be remembered anytime soon

"McKenna, you were supposed to be here for breakfast at 8:30, I went up stairs to get you but you weren't there, WERE YOU EVEN HOME LAST NIGHT?" He started off somewhat soft and started yelling once again.

"Dad calm down, your hurting my head" I mumbled. I heard long sigh on the other end

"Were you out partying? On a Wednesday night? Jesus McKenna, where even are you"

I sat along the curb shielding my eyes from the sun. I looked at the street sign and the looked at the doorstep to see if there was a number. Once I saw it I quietly told him my location.

"YOU WENT TO A FRAT PARTY? YOU'RE NOT EVEN IN COLLEGE, DO YO-" I scanned the area then looked up at the symbols directly on top of the front door

"Huh it was a frat party" I cut him off with amused by how I can't seem to remember any of last night.

"Look McKenna there's an Uber on the way now, I don't have time for this I need you here for breakfast as there's something important I need to discuss with you" before I could even answer he hung up. My dad works on a very tight schedule being Baz Luhrmann and everything. Being a movie director made him almost unavailable to anything. Having breakfast everyday is something he took pride in as most nights he's not home till late. So me being late might have somewhat messed with his schedule today whoops

Which made me wonder what was so important? Some mornings he wouldn't exactly be mad at me for not being there.

15min came by and the Uber finally arrived, I hopped in and decided to see what exactly my dads gonna see when I get home. I opened my camera on my phone. I cringed, my mascara and eyeliner was running off my eyes and my lipstick smudged. Miraculously, my curled hair was intact. I sighed, no point trying to solve it when I don't actually have anything to get the makeup off

We arrived at the gated house. Uber started rolling his window down to let security know to open the gates.

"NO no sorry it's ok I'll hop out now, it'll save the hassle" I quickly said and with that he gave me a nod and unlocked the doors for me to hop out.
I pulled down my mini dress, popped my code into the intercom and the gates opened up. I kicked my heels off, now being barefoot and made my way up to the door. God I hope no one sees me in this state

I was struggling with my keys trying to get the right ones to open the door. All of the sudden it swung open and I looked up. My eyes shot wide open

"Leo what are you doing here"
