A/N: I own nothing – not Degrassi, not Katy Perry's song "T.G.I.F."
I got this idea when I turned on Pandora and this song came on. I immediately thought of me and my best friend then my mind wandered to Degrassi, specifically Clare and Alli. I love their friendship! They're going to seem a bit OOC, but that's my intention.
* means thoughts.
Clare's POV.
I woke up with a pounding headache. I groaned and pulled myself out of bed. It took me a few seconds to realize that I wasn't in my room, but Alli's. I looked down and saw that I was still in last night's clothes.
"What the heck happened?" I asked myself.
*College Party. Bar. Drinks. Dancing. Kissing.*
My eyes widened as bits and pieces of my memory came back. I went to check myself in the mirror. Wow, did I look like a mess. I fixed my hair and clothes as something caught my eye. I looked closer.
"Is that… a hickey?" I gasped.
*Dancing with Alli. Guy comes from behind. Dance with him. Turned around to see his face. His hands travel around my body, but too intoxicated to care. Plus he's cute.*
There's a stranger in my bed
There's a pounding in my head
Glitter all over the room
Pink flamingos in the pool
I smell like a minibar
DJ's passed out in the yard
Barbies on the barbecue
Is this a hickey or a bruise?
"Alli!" I run over to the bed.
"Five more minutes…" she mumbles.
"I have a hickey," I hissed at her.
She immediately got up, "What?"
I shook my head, "We need to stop going so crazy at these parties."
"Clare," Alli rolled her eyes, "It's Winter Break. We don't have school to worry about right now. We're allowed to have fun."
"But I made out with a random guy and I can't even remember who it was!" I was getting frantic.
"That's usually my job," Alli commented, trying to lighten up the mood.
Last Friday Night
Yeah, we danced on table tops
And we took too many shots
Think we kissed, but I forgot
Last Friday Night
I paced back and forth, trying to remember who the guy was that I, ahem, made out with. I started from the beginning.
*Walked into club. Got a drink. Danced with Alli. Got another drink. Danced with Alli some more. Another drink… no, a shot. Ok, two shots. More dancing with Alli. Cute guy. Make out session.*
"Clare, stop pacing back and forth and just let it go," Alli said, "It's not like you're ever going to see him again."
I stopped and looked at her.
Alli walked up to me, "It happens. It's like an unwritten rule that it's ok to hook up for a night with no strings attached."
She looked at me with confidence. I was starting to calm down.
"Ok, I'm good," I told her, "I'm good."
The rest of the day went by pretty smoothly. Alli and I spent the day at home, trying to nurse away our headaches. We had yet to change out of our clothes, but neither of us really cared at the moment.
"Remind me why I agreed to go out with you?" I asked.
"Because finals are over and it's time to party," she said in her 'duh' tone.
I rested my head on her shoulder, "Right."
"You had fun and you know it," Alli stated.
"I'd have even more fun if I could remember what happened…" I mumbled.
"Is this still about the mystery guy?" she groaned.
I looked at her, "Well, it's not like I've ever done that before! I'm just a bit shocked."
Trying to connect the dots
Don't know what to tell my boss
Think the city towed my car
Chandelier's on the floor
Ripped my favorite party dress
Warrants out for my arrest
Think I need a ginger ale
That was such an epic fail
There was a knock on our door and I got up to answer it. It was our neighbor from across the hall.
"Eli?"
Eli Goldsworthy: College Senior. English Major. Best friends and roommate of Adam Torres. Everyone in the hallway knew each other, since we all went to the same college.
"Hey," he replied.
"Uh, what's up?" I asked lamely.
He handed me something – it was my jacket from last night.
"You left this in my car last night," he explained.
"Oh, uh, thanks," I said.
He smirked and turned around to go back to his place.
"Wait!"
He stopped and faced me.
I walked over to him, "Do you know what happened last night?"
He laughed, "Do you not remember?"
"Well, only bits and pieces of it," I said softly.
"Maybe I should remind you…"
Eli's fingers caressed my neck. My eyes widened when I realized he was touching the hickey.
"That was you?" I yelled.
"The one and only," he smirked.
"You took advantage of me," I accused.
"If I recall correctly," he pretended to think about it, "You kissed me first."
Last Friday Night
Yeah, we danced on table tops
And we took too many shots
Think we kissed, but I forgot
Last Friday Night
Suddenly, it all came back to me.
*Hands on my waist. Turned around and saw green eyes. His arms stayed in place. My arms on his neck. Eye contact. Feeling more confident than usual.*
"Oh gosh…" I groaned.
"Gee, thanks," he scoffed.
I narrowed my eyes at him, "I didn't mean it like that."
"So you thought I was a good kisser?" his smirk appeared again, "Because I certainly think you were."
I blushed furiously, unable to talk back.
Eli only smirked further, "Cute dance moves by the way."
He went back to his apartment.
Last Friday night
Yeah, I think we broke the law
Always say we're gonna stop op o whoaa oh
This Friday night, (do it all again)
This Friday night, (do it all again)
This Friday night
After a couple of seconds, I snapped back to reality. I went back inside and quietly closed the door.
"Who was it?" Alli asked.
"I am never going out with you again," I threatened.
She laughed, "Sure you aren't. Like I said, you had fun and you know it."
I opened my mouth to say something, but no words came out.
She was right, it was fun.
Who knows? Maybe I'll bump into Eli again.
…Among other things.
A/N: Lol! I know this was totally random but I just felt like writing it. I was trying to focus on Alli and Clare, but I couldn't help put in some EClare. Oh, as for the whole clubbing/bar thing, I don't actually know what goes on cuz I've only ever gone clubbing once…I'm such a lame college student -.-' I totally don't meant to give it a bad name or anything. I'm sorry if I did. Please review! Good or bad… however you felt!
