Waking up at four o'clock in the afternoon was not as great as it was made out to be. Sure, a few more hours of sleep were nice, but not when you had consumed more alcohol than your body weight. Okay, maybe the alcohol thing was a little exaggeration, but you got the point, right? My head was throbbing with a hangover and getting too much sleep, I couldn't even sit up without feeling like I was taking a trip around the earth and a couple seconds from puking into the stars.

As I was constricted to my mattress my only hope of activity today would be technology. I was pissed at myself for having my phone on auto-brightness and further making my head throb with the blinding bright light. I shut off auto-brightness and turned the brightness down to its lowest setting to survive the journey to I was about to make.

I had a ways to scroll before I reached the end of the notifications piled onto top of each other. My thumb started hurting halfway from scrolling so much. Was this what it felt like to be famous? Maybe this wasn't what it felt like, nonetheless it was pretty damn close to how I suspected Ashton felt some days.

10 missed calls from Ashton
5 missed calls from Luke
20 missed calls from Michael
2 missed calls from Jet
1 missed call from Noelle

13 missed calls from Xander
25 missed calls from Sofia
2 missed calls from Mommy
1 missed call from Dad

I think I'd rather be dead than have to respond back to these phone calls. I think I could quickly knock out Ashton, Luke, and Michael's calls by calling just one of them, but I didn't know who'd I call without hurting the others feelings. My first choice would be to call my dad, but his one phone call probably was not urgent in the least. The pounding in my head was screaming to call Ashton, but I couldn't be bothered to listen to what my head was telling me right now.

Ashton: when did you make an instagram?

I closed out my messages, looking through my apps. I magically appeared to have an Instagram now. I opened the picture app, observing the only thing I had posted on there; a picture of Jet, Noelle, and I looking rather sober. The picture had 100+ likes and a bunch of comments I couldn't be bothered to read. I played around with the app for awhile longer, learning I had 1000 something followers and followed absolutely no one back. So, I went and followed Ashton before anything else. I didn't understand why I felt the need to make an Instagram in my drunken state... I had tried to stay away from all of these things.

I went back to finish my quest of texts.

Goodbye Talia.
