Alexander's POV

''God. My head.'' I said while getting up from the bed.

I am not drinking again so much. But in reality this was the sixth time I have said that after a hangover. But we had fun last night. After the Royale we returned to Owen's house. I wasn't so drunk then and I could drive by myself. At the house we continue drinking and casually talking about various things. I remember vaguely that for a moment the subject went to Evelyn but other than that I don't remember anything. I think that we finished the few bottles of alcohol he had.

''Exactly how much have I drunk?'' I muttered.

This was the worst hangover I had in all my years. Holding my head I walked down to the kitchen. I made coffee. Really strong coffee.

''Any coffee left for me?'' Owen said entering the kitchen.

''I don't know.'' I replied.

''I'm not drinking so much again. We finished all my drinks. Not that I had a lot but still.'' he said.

''I am with you on that.''

''Well, it's the first time you are getting married. We had to celebrate.''

''I know. Since you mentioned it, I better go wake up the others. Because if I judge from our hangovers, they need to wake up soon to be sober enough for the wedding.'' I said getting up.

I went to guest room and opened the door. Justin, Peter and Dean were all sleeping on one double bed. How did they manage it without someone falling off? All of them were well-built men and they definitely didn't fit in the bed under other circumstances. However, since they were drunk I suppose, they just slept and didn't move one bit.

''Wake up.'' I said.

I would have been lucky if they had woken up with the first try. But luck isn't on my side today. After a few tries I finally managed to wake them up.

''Damn it, Alex. Stop yelling.'' Justin complained.

''Justin, shut up. My head hurts.'' Peter said and threw a pillow to Justin's face.

''Alex, why did you wake us up? It's still morning.'' Dean asked.

I looked my watch. It was 2 p.m.

''No, it isn't. It's 2 p.m. It's what?'' I wondered.

I looked my watch again to make sure that I saw right.

''Damn! Get up. The wedding is in two hours. Hurry up.'' I panicked.

Jesus Christ! Why didn't I set an alarm before going to sleep?

''Owen, stop drinking your coffee and go get ready. We have about one and a half hour to be ready.'' I yelled before going to take a shower.

What if I hadn't woken up on time? I would have been late and Evelyn would be sad, disappointed which is unacceptable in my books. I took a shower and wrapping a towel around my waist I left the bathroom after shaving first. Fortunately, Owen had two bathrooms. There won't be any big problem about using them. Especially now that we were in a hurry. I grabbed my tuxedo and proceeded dressing up. After I was fully dressed I combed my hair and put some gel on it. I put some of The One by Dolce and Gabbana. It was my favourite cologne and the women liked it. One more reason to put it. I looked at the wall and saw that it was 3.15 p.m. We still had time to spare but not much as the church is very far from Owen's place.

I went to the living room to wait fro the others. Not five minutes later Owen walked in the room.

''Are they ready yet?'' I asked him.
