Chapter 23, here we go...(swirls)

Song: waste my time by Johnny Orlando.

Beep Beep,

Elle groaned, she tried to ignore it but she had this splitting headache that really wasn't helping matters at all, though she wanted to ignore the beeping of the stupid alarm clock by her bedside, she had no choice but to resign to her cruel fate of waking up by 7 on a freaking Sunday morning,

She groaned again and stretched her aching arms to the table, feeling around for the alarm clock then right before it rings again, Elle slammed her hand down on it instantly shutting it up.

She groaned for the third time in two minutes, she yawned and sat up and stretched out her back aches, it felt so relaxing that was until she was done with her stretching and she was hit with yet another splitting headache.

"Ouch" Elle held her head, the pain was unbearable,

'How much did I drink yesterday?' Elle wondered.

Then she remembered, Alex! she knew he was with her last night but her memory was still a bit foggy so she wasn't sure what exactly happened.

She crawled out of her bed and took a painful journey to the bathroom,

'Yep, I'm never drinking again'

She got into the shower, letting the hot water soothe her aching muscles, she was so exhausted that she allowed herself a longer soak time in her oversized tub.

She stepped out after a few minutes in her peach coloured, knee length robe, she felt relaxed though her head still hurt but she have had worse hangovers,

That's right, uptight Elle was once a party girl, she had a lot of parties in middle school but had to give it up after Ethan handed down Stark industries to her.

Elle slightly gasped, she had almost forgotten about Taylor, she and Taylor planned to go out later in the day.

She walked up to her vanity and picked up her phone, according to the time on her phone it was still early, she saw something from the corner of her eyes, it was aspirin, there was also a piece of paper underneath it.

Elle picked it up, it was a note, the person who wrote it seemed to be in a rush,

It was from Alex, there was nothing special about the note, it just told her to take care of herself, take the aspirin and that he was coming over.

Elle smiled, it was thoughtful of him to get her the aspirin, she got a glass from the mini fridge in her room and filled it with water then downed the drug with it.

Her head started to feel slightly better and less woozy, she texted a reminder to Taylor about their outing, they were going to a Macdonald restaurant in town.

She stared at the note, unconsciously admiring Alex's writing, she smiled as she studied the note carefully,

How crazy did thing get last night? She remember finishing her Martini when Alex left to take his call, then thinking about Ethan, her dad and her mom and then ordering some gin and basically getting drunk,

Her ride back home with Alex, sneaking in through the back door, puking her guts out...Elle blushed at that memory especially since Alex was there to witness it, she groaned, hiding her face in her palms, she could die from the embarrassment.

She remembered getting into bed, talking to Alex and telling him she had played football in middle school...her eyes widened, her face paled in terror, she was visibly panicking,
