Liv's POV
"Olivia, get your butt up and start preparing for school"
"Uuugh, but it's so early in the morning"
"Actually it's 6:30, and your mates getting dressed so get up"
"Don't make me use the air horn"
"Uggggh"
Being my mom she blew the air horn anyway. And it got me up, way too fast.
What the hell. I have this pounding in my head that just won't go. It was probably a bad idea for her to use the air horn.
I reluctantly wear my flip-flops, hands on my head and head to the bathroom. I'm not in the mood to listen to music, I just can't. I feel like fifty hammers are pounding my head repeatedly. I grab my brush and press some toothpaste on it and brush eyes closed for about three minutes.
And then I head to the shower and literally sleep-shower.
Worst morning ever. Why do I have such a terrible headache?? It's like a migraine and I'm definitely gonna have to see the school nurse.
After "showering" I pick out a navy blue tank top. What, I have other colors that aren't red, don't act surprised
Then I pair it with one of my faded black dungrees. I really am not in the mood.
Feeling really sick, I don't have the time for make up so I just style my hair in a messy bun.
I grab my red sling bag and my black vans and then I head down the stairs.
When I get down the stairs my mum looks me from head to toe and then says "What's up with you?You look like I did when I broke up with my first boyfriend" Gee thanks
"Really mum, really? I don't have time for this I'm just really not in the mood"
"Whatever drama queen"
"I'm really not in the mood, mom"
I sit down on one of the stools by our breakfast table and help myself to some cereal
I stand up to get milk from the fridge and when I open the fridge I see that milk is finished. Just great how am I supposed to take cereal now
"MOM, we're out of milk"
"Grocery money is on the fridge, go to the grocery store after school, k? "
"Not like I have a choice. I'm leaving without breakfast"
"Love ya too"
And then I get my stuff and start walking. I put on my reading glasses because the sun is just too much and then I start walking.
When I get to West and South's house, I knock repeatedly even though it was affecting my head and no one came to the door and I just got tired so I moved on.
I pick up my phone and leave a voicemail for South
Hey South, Im not riding with you guys today. I've come over to your place and knocked repeatedly and no one answered. Plus I have this ridiculous headache that just won't go away and I don't have the energy to wait so I'll trek. Don't worry, I'll get to school in one piece, see you later.
Now that that's done I start my trek to school. As I'm going I can't but listen to music cause it's just a part of me
So I pick up my phone and my headphones and play 7 years old by Lukas Graham
I'm headed to school but the headache or should I say migraine really got to me and I had to stop and sit on the sidewalk.
Then all of a sudden I hear a car pass me then reverse and stops in front of me. Then I look up and then I'm sure you can already guess who it is
"We have got to stop meeting like this"
"Please go away"
Then he got down from his car and takes in my appearance
"Whoa what happened to you"
"It's really not your business" I snap
Then he raises his hands telling me he means no harm "Claws in, I'm only trying to help"
I don't reply
"I bet I can help you, try me"
"Fine, if its your heart desire then I'll tell you. I have this pissing migraine that just won't go away. It feels like... "
"...Hammers pounding your head?"
"Yeah.. How did you know that? Are you stalking me? "
"I'm not going to answer that but I just know. It's called a hangover"
"why the hell would I have a hangover "
"It's what happens when you drink especially too much"
"Yeah, I know what a hangover is genius. Plus I haven't drank a drop of alcohol in my life" I say in a matter of fact tone
"Maybe not today"
"What are you talking about I've never tasted alcohol"
"Pretty sure you have, after yesterday night"
"What are you..... " Then he brings out his iphone and then he shows me the screen. Apparently it's a video of a girl going bonkers probably because she's drunk
"Why are you showing me the video of a mad girl? "
He chuckles "Well that mad girl happens to be you"
"Really funny, but I told you I'm not in the mood for your lame jokes"
Then he zoomed in "Holy mother of Jermaine that's is me!! "
"Yeah, I know"
"How did you even get the video?"
"It's all over the web"
"What!! " I grab the phone from his hand and play it again
"How did it get all over the web??!? "
"Winnie posted it" He said as he shrugged
"What the hell?? And what did I even drink that affected me so damn much"
I say, still playing it over and over wondering if it was really me
'what's up party people, DJ turn down the music I have a few words to say. I have been given an assignment to make sure everyone has a kickass time. So y'all can call me Selena. Oh and DRINKS ON ME'
"what the... How much money did I spend last night!! "
"Well, I don't know. But as much as I'd love to watch the video with you all day, I wouldnt want you to blame me for missing school, so can we do this some other time" Drew says, sarcasm dripping in his tone
"No, im not riding with you" I say, feeling really frustrated
"Pleeeeease, I hate seeing you like this"
I don't reply
"What if I tell you I have a solution"
Then I look up at him "What is it?? "
"Starbucks" (A/N: hey y'all, I don't know if that's the solution to hangovers but in the book that's the solution. So just roll with it)
I look at my watch and see the time is already 7:30 "Fine. But only because l love coffee. Plus I'd do anything to get rid of this headache, even if it means riding with you. This better work"
"Come on in cupcake"
I got in and then he started the engine and in five minutes time we reached starbucks
We both walk in and I take a seat while Drew goes to order.
Then he brings two cups of hot soothing coffee "Here ya go"
"Thanks"
I take a gulp, really wanting the headache to go but at the end scalding my tongue "Gawd, thats hot" I say as Drew was laughing his ass off
"I'm never taking coffee with you again" I said, knowing it would get to him
And I was right! His face changed completely and he looked mortified
Then it was my turn to laugh "Now that was funny"
"Not like I care"
"Tell that to the Poopoo face, you have on" I say and then soon enough Drew joins me
Wiping a tear Drew says "Let's get going" I checked the time and it was 7:40
And then we both stood up and then we got to his car and we headed to school
»»*»»
As I got down from Drew's car, I am met with people's eyes boring into my head
Then I lean in to Drew's face and Whispered "Why is everyone staring at you? " I said with a hint of confusion in my voice
He chuckled "Not me, you. I guess you gained a lot if popularity along the line"
I face palm myself "See you later. Hey, thanks for the Coffee" I said as I smiled
He winked "Anytime, cupcake"
Then I managed to make it to my locker and then I took the necessary and dropped the unnecessary and headed to history class. The bell hadn't been rang.
It's 7:45 meaning I still have some time to kill.
When I get to the class everyone stares at me and then starts chanting "PARTY G, PARTY G, PARTY G" I roll my eyes and settled down. By then the class went back to normal
"GUUUUURL" Was the first thing I heard when I turned to face my friends
I roll my eyes "what" I said the headache already coming back
"YOUR POPULAR THATS WHAT" Cece said
"Cecelia please keep it down, I'm not in the mood. I have this killer headache and i really need to-"
"Check your instagram" Winnie said excitedly. Obviously paying no attention to what I said
"I don't even have an account" I say already pissed
"Yes you do. I helped you last night"
Winnie said
I roll my eyes "No you helped Selena not Liv remember" Blair said
I roll my eyes. Again. Fifth time today
I unlock my phone and see that I do have an account and that I already have a thousand new followers and apparently I'm trending
"What the heck happened" I said getting freaked out
"It was after I posted that video. Everyone went bonkers" Winnie said still excited
"Look you even made it known the school blog" South said showing the video which was in the school blog
"You gave Nancy the video?? " I asked Winnie
"Yeah, she said she was going to give me credit. And she did so" Winnie said as she shrugged
I groan. "You should be happy. Your trending" South says
"Yeah, well what if I don't want to trend" i snap
My eyes widen realising my tone "I'm sorry guys it's just that, this has been the worst morning of my life" I state as I sigh
"Well you have to get used to-" Blair was cut off by the bell
And then our stupid annoying as hell history teacher Mr Herbert walked in
I internally gag. I obviously am not gonna pay attention. The headache is just too much and everything plus I shouldn't even be in school at this state!!
I take out my phone and text my mom
Me: mum I feel so sick. I can't stay here any longer
Mom: well, I'm not buying that shit. Too bad you have to learn
Me: I'm serious this time!!
Mom: you'll be fine, beside you have only a few classes today right?
Me: I guess your right. But if I do fall sick I'm blaming everything on you
Mom: Trust me you won't. Take it from the one who brought you up
I roll my eyes. Then I drop my phone and try to pay attention.
But then, all of a sudden, Mr Herbert's voice sounds so soothing. And before I know it I'm already drifting off
"Miss sparks! Miss sparks! Miss sparks! Would you wake up this instance and explain yourself" Not so soothing anymore. Just the same ol'boring
As I was about to answer Someone answers before me "She's not feeling good"
"I wasn't asking you Mr Dickson. Now Olivia will you answer me at once"
No. "He's right, I really am not feeling good" I say honestly
"Well then go on and go to the nurse" He said accepting defeat
"I'll go with her" Drew offers
"No, your not leaving Drew. Uh.... Xander you take her"
This Xander rolls his eyes
"Sure" He said to Mr Herbert then he looked at me "Come on pretty let's get going"
Did he just call me, pretty. I blush and its very obvious as I'm glowing red and Drew looks pretty ticked off!!
Wait. Why am I so excited
Oh stupid. It's because you love him
When did you come to live?
When you started lying to yourself
About what??
About not liking Drew
It's not lying if it's the truth
Yes it is. You love Drew
Buzz off
"Hello??!? "
"Yeah, what, sorry"
"Oh no, she needs to get there fast" Drew said walking towards me
"Uh, back off Dick, I think you heard the teach when he said I should take her, so you stay put"
Drew wanted to say something but he didn't. He's really pissed.
Then Xander leads me out the class
"So, what's your name? "
"Olivia. Call me Liv"
"Okay Liv, as you may have heard my name is Xander. Nice to meet you"
He extends his hand out for a handshake but I fist bump him. I'm really getting oozy
"Noice"
"What? "
"Never mind"
