"Baby". His voice soft he reached for my hand. "Look at me".

I couldn't. I could already feel how red my face was becoming. I was struggling handle this.

"I won't be long". He got to his feet kissing the top of my head before he left.

I liked that he didn't pressure me into talking about it. That would only embarrass me more. How could I talk about something I had no control over?

Stretching out my limbs I rubbed my face before opening my eyes.

"Alanna?". I frowned.

"Finally". She looked up from her phone. "You snore really bad".

"I do not". Sitting up a yawn escaped my mouth. "Is Jake not home?".

"He's still with my dad. We're going for lunch I'm starving".

"Hungover?". I grinned.

"Dying a little inside". She made a face. "Never drinking again".

Rolling my eyes I sat up swinging my legs off the couch. "Pretty sure I've heard that before". Pulling on my sneakers I got to my feet. "Good night then?". "It was alright". She shrugged. "You didn't miss much".

"Hm". I muttered.

"Okay it was more than alright but seriously you didn't miss much".

"No what I missed was the last big night out with my friends before we go our separate ways".
