~~ a few hours later ~~
Glancing over the empty beer bottles cluttering the table, and at Juliet, who seems to be out cold, I realize I should probably be working.
"Dammit, my head is spinning" I sigh to myself.
Pulling the cozy blanket off my legs I stumble back to my room and set myself down at my desk.
Opening my laptop I start coding, praying I do everything right. I've already done this kind of code once, so how hard can it be to do it again? Surely it's just muscle memory now.
It's around 2 am when I call it a night, the tiredness catching up with me when I'm about halfway done with my project.
Sliding into my bed I reminisce events of the day and slip into a deep sleep.
~~Time skip to mid-day ~~
I rub my eyes as I slowly start to sit up in my bed. The constant pinging from my phone woke me up when even my alarms didn't.
"Who the hell is texting me at this time of the day-?" I mutter, my question answered when I lift my phone up and notice that it's 12:24 pm.
Oh my god, I slept through the whole morning, I thought with a sigh. Sleepily stumbling into the kitchen I'm greeted with a box of donuts.
I see Juliet standing at the counter, with her favorite way of curing a hangover, a shit-ton of sugar and coffee, with a box of donuts in front of her. At least she saved some raspberry-filled ones for me.
Grabbing a donut from the box and a cup of coffee I head back to my room, and once again sit down at my desk and get to work.
This time I'm determined to finish it in this sitting. I need to finish this up so I can stream later today, I thought to myself.
~~Time skip to an hour later~~
Remembering my discord I check for the notifications I heard earlier.

~Time skip to finishing the coding~
Leaning back into my chair and cracking my knuckles I smile knowing that I finished the code, thank god.
I enjoy coding but it's a love-hate relationship. The final products are always so cool, but the journey to get them done is hard. As I skim my eyes across my code I don't notice anything out of the ordinary.
"I'm free!" I yell out my open door over to Juliet.
"Hooray! Wanna film some red dead online gameplay?" she yelled back at me.
"Yeah, sure!"
