Next day

"Blake" I ask as I go and sit down next to him, turning my body so I'm facing him.

"Lili"

"Do you think it's weird that I haven't been to Dylan's apartment yet?" I question, he's been living there for over a week and he's never invited me to stay or even just chill out with him.

"Wait you haven't even been in it yet?" Blake replies shocked, taking a sip from his coffee holding it between his two hands

"Nope"

"Wait how come?" He turns to me looking fully concerned

"Whenever I ask if he wants me to come see him he says he's busy"

"Well he shouldn't be doing that, if I had a girlfriend I would want to spend most of my day with her" he says furrowing his eyebrows at the thought of my boyfriend not wanting to spend time with me

"Oh, what should I do then?" I say beginning to panic, why doesn't my own boyfriend want to see me anymore, well its probably because of the stress of uni but he knows I would help him.

"Text him I guess or just got to his apartment" he says bringing his coffee up to his lips and takes a sip

"That's smart" I reply bringing my phone up out of my pocket and text Dylan

Lili: hey b

Dylan: hey, how are you x

Lili: good, I was wondering if we could hang out at your place tonight? ;)

Dylan: I wish you could but my roommate is having friends over sorry x

Lili: oh okay don't worry, I'll see you tonight maybe? x

Dylan: no can do today because charlie my roommate wants me to meet his friends but I promise I will see you tomorrow x

"He's busy....again" I let out a huff and lay my head on Blake's thigh, throwing my phone across from me so it lands on the chair

"Well today we're going to a party and we're going to have an amazing time" Blake says putting his cup on the table beside him, he puts his hand on my head and starts playing with strands of my hair

"Yeah, I'm going to get absolutely shit faced" I smile at the thought of me being drunk in about 10 hours

"I'm already excited for my hangover tomorrow" he laughs sarcastically as I stand up from his thigh and go and grab my phone which I flung across the room earlier

"Are we alcoholics?" I question letting out a loud laugh, wiping my phone screen with my sleeve then putting it into my front hoodie pocket.

"Nah we just like having a good time"

"Here for a good time not a long one" I say holding up my imaginary drink and Blake does the same, we clink our invisible glasses letting out cheeky smiles at one another.

I stand in the shower letting the water hit my body, running my strawberry shampoo through my hair as I hum the theme song from Suite Life Of Zak and Cody.

Finishing my washing routine I step out the shower wrapping my white towel around my body, drying my body. I stand in the mirror brushing my teeth since I'm going out in about an hour and I doubt I'll brush my teeth when I arrive home drunk

I quickly waddle to my bedroom trying not to slip over, I close the door and pick my outfit out for the night.

Throwing the mesh flower dress over my body and flattening it out I speedily dry my hair and put it up into a messy pony tail, finishing my makeup with my signature lipstick.
