Chapter Four: Counting Stars

{Munro's P.O.V}

I awoke with a massive migraine and the click of a door shut. Who had just left? I won't lie I remember downing drinks, but I couldn't remember anything else. What did I do? I woke up in a bed that wasn't mine. I sat up trying to recall any information. How did I sleep here? Where the hell was Justin? I checked my phone. It was dead. Shit. I glanced over to the clock next to me. I groaned mentally and fell back on the bed. Ugh. I had work in 20 minutes. I hated that we had work on New Years but Stephan loved having a party of his own. They aren't that interesting, but it was mandatory to go.

I quickly jumped off the bed and put my shirt on that was on the carpet. I didn't have time to change and shower. I walked out of the bedroom and rushed to the door. Outside the door was Aislinn. She looked like she wanted to say something. "Sorry Ais, I can't talk right now." I rushed into Justin's car. He drove me to work. He didn't have a scene but he owes me for leaving me. "Where were you?"

"What do you mean?"

"You left me. I woke up here and you were nowhere in sight. Where did you go?"

"Sorry man, I got so drunk and I hooked up with Chloe. I smirked. They were bound to happen.

"It's okay I guess." We arrived and I quickly changed into my Eli attire. I had to film a small Eclare scene. It was her declining Eli sort of but tells him she'll make it then they share a small quick kiss. As soon as we kissed quickly, Ais ran off and didn't bother to stay afterward and talk a bit like we always would after every scene. Either she wasn't feeling quite herself or she wasn't in the mood to chit chat.

I headed to the green room and grabbed a bottle of water from out of the fridge. My head was still in massive pain. God. I loved drinking but the aftermath is unbearable. I sat on the couch with the cold water pressed against my temple. Why couldn't I remember at least one detail? "Hey cutie, where did you go last night?"

I looked up and saw Cristine twirling her hair in a flirty way. She sat on my lap. I was so fucking confused. Cristine flirted before but only mild. This was not mild anymore. Here is Cristine sitting on my lap playing with my hair. God it felt so good. I snapped out of my thoughts. "What do you mean?"

"I went to the bathroom and when I got back you where nowhere to be found." She could tell I had no idea what she was talking about because she continued, "it was after we grinded and kissed," All I can think is when the hell did I do that? I liked Cristine but not in that way. She is a good friend and that's all. "I was hoping you were gonna be my New Year's kiss." Before I can let Cristine down easy, Demetrius followed by Mindy and Luke walked in.

"Hey Munro, how was the bedroom fantasy last night?" Demetrius winked at me. I'm starting to believe today is Fuck with Munro's Head Day. My headache that was slightly leaving came back. I pressed the cold water harder against my temple. Aislinn had walked in and she stared at Cristine and I. I guess she heard about the bedroom fantasy. She stared at the ground, playing with her hands.

Mindy slapped Demetrius on his arm. "You weren't suppose to say anything idiot."

Cristine turned to me and whispered into my ear, "I thought we were something."

I whispered back, "I'm so sorry-" She didn't let me finish, she completely got off my lap and walked over to Alicia. I felt bad but it had to be cleared up. Justin and Chloe walked in. We all knew. They were together now.

Aislinn whispered in my ear, "You told me, that Cristine and you weren't anything serious. Did you lie to me?" I was so sick of everyone bringing up shit I don't remember. I lost it. "EVERYONE NEEDS TO SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LEAVE ME ALONE!" I got up and walked out.

'Munro, wait." Aislinn was chasing me down the hall.

"Ais, please I just wanna be alone." I kept walking off.

"YOU TOLD ME YOU LOVE ME!" I stop dead in my tracks. Did she just say what I think she said? I turned around speechless.

I managed out a "what?" I didn't remember saying something like that to Ais. I don't even know if I feel that way. I care about Ais but that's crazy.

"That's why I was avoiding you. We kissed multiple times last night. You were my New Year's kiss and we ended up cuddling then you said that. Do you mean it?"

"I don't know." Maybe getting odee drunk isn't good for me.

"They say drunken words are sober thoughts." She approached closer to me.

"Ais, I just need time to think. I don't remember anything from last night. Everyone bothering me telling me shit I have no idea about is really making my migraine hurt more. I don't know what love is. Maybe I can be in love with you or not. Maybe I love you, maybe I don't. I do know that I care about you. I'm sorry if I hurt you in any way. I just…give me time to think when my head isn't killing me." I stormed off and that's when I realized I have a lot of shit to think about. I have to apologize to Cristine for leading her on. I never meant to hurt anyone. I called Tom to pick me up and he took me home. He asked about the party but once he saw me clenching my jaw he didn't ask again. Once I got home I charged my phone. I can't believe all the things I did last night. I knew I did dumb things but this is worse. I decided the best thing for me right now is a nap.
