Sinead Starling rushed to the bathroom, before emptying her stomach into the toilet.
Sitting back, she put her hand to her forehead. Crap, she thought.
She knew exactly why she was in this position. Sinead groaned at the thought. She was only in her junior year of college. Sinead needed only one more year to graduate and earn her bachelors degree. Now, it seemed that she wouldn't be earning her degree. Or finishing college.
Quickly, Sinead gathered her stuff before heading out to her class.
On her way, Sinead thought about how she'd finally break the news to her family. She was supposed to be the strong one. The one who doesn't make mistakes. The one who doesn't screw up. The one who...
Sinead broke down crying. She turned and headed back to her apartment. She couldn't deal with the pressure, she needed to relax. Sinead calmly walked back to where she called home.
Her apartment seemed so tiny compared to her friend's mansion. Amy wouldn't be in this position. She's not a screw up like me. She would know better. Sinead thought curling onto the bed.
Sinead cried. Finally, she relaxed enough to take a nap, waking up in time to get to her last class.
On campus everyone was wondering why she wasn't in her morning classes. Sinead used the excuse of "a family emergency" to escape the interrogations. In a way, Sinead wasn't lying. She did have a tiny family emergency, one only she knew about.
At the end of the day, Sinead sat down, sighing.
"Okay," she said, aloud. "I have options, I have people who I know will support me, and I have career that will be put in jeopardy. Why did I have to screw up so badly?"
Sinead fell asleep that night feeling like a let down to her whole family. She never was supposed to screw up, but her she was. Living the consequences of a major screw up.
Well, I wasn't planning to write any more stories until I finished my other ones, but...here I am writing another story.
So...it's kind of obvious what's going on. PM me if you don't know...or let a review. I will give more back ground for it in the next chapter. The next chapter will also introduce the ship.
TTFN...(for those who don't know Tigger: Ta-Ta For Now)
