I-i... Uuuuuuuh my head... It hurts a lot!.
W-wha- where am I?.
Oh darn my head is spinning, I can barely open my eyes...
I got a hangover...
At least I'm in my room... I think.
-Geez how much did I drink?.
-A lot.
-AAAAAAH!.
I end up falling to the ground from my bed, as I stumble upong seeing Madeline sitting in my room, in a chair she put in front of my bed.
-Good morning by the way :)
She says as she gulps a couple of times from her beer bottle.
-WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE?!.
-Well, I took you home so you wouldn't end up getting hit by a car or sleeping on the sidewalk.
-And WHY are you still here?!.
-Oh just wanted to make sure you didn't drown in your vomit while you sleep.
-Huh?! Wh-... Oooh god-.
I run to the bathroom to reach the sink, I go and "release" all the pent up stuff in my stomach from last night, I don't know what kind of face Madeline was making while this happened but I can tell she was mocking me "silently".
-Uuuuuuogh... *Spits* huuuuuu.... Geez... What the hell did you give me last night?.
-A martini... Well it was 3 actually if I remember correctly (she doesn't).
-Did you add something to those martinis?.
-Nope, just regular martinis, trust me if I spiked them, you wouldn't be alive, I usually drink MUCH heavier stuff.
-How can you... Right, your regeneration...
-Correct!, I only get drunk while i'm sipping the bottle. Literally the second I'm not drinking anymore I get sober, and I hate that, that's why I have some other stuff inside me to keep my regeneration busy!.
-I... Don't want to know.
I open the mirror in the bathroom to reveal a collection of drugs, mostly for personal care, some dental floss, and my most precious treasure right now, a bottle of pills that help with a tummy ache.
-Let me guess, that was the first time you ever got drunk?.
-Aah, it's really easy to notice, yeah.
-I mean, for being your first time you were killing it last night.
-W-what.
- I didn't knew you where that flexible.
I don't even think about it, I just run from the bathroom and grab Madeline by her shirt, pulling her upwards hitting her in the wall
-WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME?!
-H-hey hey, relax I didn't mean it that way, nothing like that ever happened, I meant you where literally dancing last night in front of everyone.
-There is absolutely no way j did that.
-there is absolutely ALL WAY you did that, I recorded it actually.
I drop Madeline while I grab my head in distress, as I feel the weight of a thousand days worth of social embarrassment hitting my soul.
-Don't... Don't show it to me.
-Nah come on you gotta see it, you where killing it, here watch!.
-...
-Come on stop covering your eyes, you'll love it haha, here you got some back up dancers to help with your choreography, it was wild!.
I'm covering my eyes but allowing some of the video to enter them, I see myself, without my coat dancing to a song that I'm.... Singing...
-How long did I sing for?.
-Like 3 songs, not sure, I was in the bathroom in the middle of one, and I'm not so sure I didn't black out so...
-... And who are that girls?...
-No idea, you came with them after you leaved past the second song. They dance really good tho.
-I can see that...
I finally decide to look away and walk somewhere else while still grabbing my head because I feel like it's about to implode, me looking at the screen of Madeline's phone made my migraine stronger.
Luckily I know hangovers are just symptoms of dehydration, I'm going to drink a couple of glasses of water and hope I get better.
-Oh also we should be in work right now, you know?.
-Huh?. Oh right, what hour is it?.
-like 1 PM (she looks at her phone) nevermind it's 10:43 am.
-God I don't know if I can endure being at work right now...
-You can just call the day off, don't see why you can't.
-Your mother.
-Ouch, at least let me prepare for the "your mome" jokes. Okay it's my turn!, YOUR MOM IS SO-.
-Madeline. Stop screaming.
-Yeah yeah, sorry.
-Well what I mean is I literally gained my job back yesterday, and I'm pretty sure I don't have the privilege to take a day off... I don't think I have any privilege to begin with, I'll be lucky if they even pay me in the first place
(Cecile starts drinking her glass of water #4)
-Aah nah, don't worry they discovered what Gustave was doing and the council decided to tell her to fuck off.
-Like, from the council?.
- No, I mean they told her to stop bothering you, she can do anything to you unless she wants to... Well, you know, die.
-How are you so sure about it.
-She told me, when she was snapping and breaking every bone in my body while never shutting up. The usual, you know.
-Did she tell you something else?. Does.she still hate?.
-Oh she truly HATES you, I mean it with full caps and in bold letters. I'm pretty sure she would kill you herself if she could, she can't tho, council put a leash in her and now she can't even roam free in the facility.
-Hmmm, I mean I like the news but I still feel like everything can go wrong at any time.
-And it can, don't get me wrong, the wicked witch of the east is gone but it doesn't mean that suddenly everything is sunshine and rainbows, I told you the council put a leash on her but that's mostly because they want you to live. And if they want you live, it means they want you for something big. DO NOT COMPLY.
-I told you to stop shouting geez...
- Ah sorry again :c don't do whatever they ask you to do, in fact I truly encourage you to not even listen to them, and most importantly, focus on faraday for the time being. She should.be your number 1 priority right now... And for like the following weeks, I don't know how many but I'm sure there will be a couple at least.
-I'll do my best, I guess... Thank you, truly, for the info, it really aliviates the stress a little.
-No worries lady, now finish your 6 cubic³ litters of water, because you'll need them for work.
-Oh right!.
