Aubree woke up right on time, her internal alarm never falling her, even after a night of heavy drinkin

She woke up clutching her pounding head. The hangover hit her like a sledgehammer to the skull, sending sharp, throbbing pains through her

‘I’d die of embarrassment if I ran into Bowen anytime soon!”

Seeing it was about time, Aubree scrambled out of bed. As a senior in high school, she no longer had the freedom to skip classes at will since the new term began.
