It was now Christmas morning. Justin had woken up after a great night with his friends. But, he felt a bit sick. Wait, what happened last night?

"Ugh... fuck." he said. He was feeling sick to his stomach. His vision was also blurred. He couldn't even read the clock. What time was it? All he knew is that it was still pretty dark outside.

"Ugh... W-What happened?"

He walked out of his room and into the living room. Good lord, the place was a mess. Suddenly, he started to see flashing lights coming from outside.

"W-Who's having a rave outside?" he said, suddenly annoyed. It looked as if there were strobe lights coming from outside.

He went out. The lights were flashing rapidly. He couldn't tell what was going on.

"Whoever's out here having a party, could you keep it down? It's too early for this crap." he said, trying not to stumble over his words.

Then, the lights turned off and a figure approached him. Of course, his blurred vision made it very difficult to see who it was.

"Who's there?" he asked. Then, he saw a bunch of blue. Yeah, not a face, but just a fuzzy shade of blue.

"Greetings, Justin Dark." the well-spoken voice said.

"I-I don't understand. Who are you?"

"Are you serious? You know who I am." they responded, suddenly annoyed.

"I mean, y-your voice sounds familiar but my vision's blurred right now. I don't know what's wrong with me."

"It's me, Celeste." she responded. Ah, that would explain the blue then.

"C-Celeste?! Is that really you?" he asked.

"Yes. It's me. What's wrong with you? You're acting very peculiar."

"I-I don't really know. I just woke up after having a Christmas party with me and my friends."

"Really? Hmm... Let me use my scanner and see what might be wrong."

She pulled out a strange device and scanned him. The results were shocking.

"Oh dear." she exclaimed.

"What did your butt probe find, C-Celeste."

"It appears your alcohol levels are extremely high. You must be what humans call 'hungover'".

"Ah, t-that would explain it." he said.

"I think we should go inside and you can lay down. I'll explain why I'm here whenever you awaken."

He agreed. But, as soon as he started to walk towards his house, he fell face first on the ground, knocking himself unconscious.

"Oh dear." the blue alien girl said. She picked him up and took him inside. She laid him down in bed. Then, she headed to his freezer and shrunk herself down.

Several hours later, he woke up with a massive headache. But, he was mostly functional. He just needed some medicine.

"Oh, fuck. What happened?" he asked himself.

He headed towards the kitchen and grabbed an aspirin for his headache. The house was still a mess. He wondered why Momo hasn't cleaned it yet.

After he took his pill, he heard some noises coming from the freezer. It almost sounded like a rat nibbling on something.

"God, damn it! There's a fucking rat in here, isn't there?" he said, very angry.

He opened it and saw Celeste, who was shrunken to the size of a mouse eating his ice cream.

"Celeste?!" he said in shock. She hopped out of his freezer and grew back to normal size. Tendricidian technology, everyone.

"Oh good, you're awake. How are you feeling?" she asked him.

"I'm alright. Just have a headache. What are you doing here?"

"I doubt you remember what happened early this morning, but I came by and you were hungover. You fell to the ground so I picked you up and put you in bed."

"Oh, right. Thanks, I guess? But, what are you doing here on Earth?"

"I came to your planet to spend the special occasion with you. The time of year that you earthlings call: 'Christmas'".

Wait, did she actually know it was Christmas? Weird.

"Well, I'm flattered, Celeste. But, I already celebrated it last night. Me and my friends had a Christmas party and did a big gift exchange. After that, I don't remember what happened. But, if I was hungover, I must've consumed some alcohol."

"Yes, you most likely did. But, when I came in, I couldn't help but notice that your house looks like a cyclone came through."

"Y-Yeah. I don't know what happened. I also don't know why Momo hasn't cleaned it yet. Heck, now that I think about it, I haven't seen her nor Lailani since last night."

"Lailani?" she exclaimed. "Are you talking about the young girl that works at the hotel on Inna De Poona?"

"Yeah. She's been visiting me since my birthday last week. But, I don't know where she is."

"I might be able to locate her." Celeste implied.

"Wait, really? How?" he asked.

"Um... Don't worry about it." she said, getting some red on her face. Oh lord, don't say she probed Lailani too!

She brought out the device again. She scanned for the Polynesian girl.

"According to my scanner, she's in your bathroom."

He went in there. But, she wasn't in plain sight.

"Celeste? I don't see her anywhere?" he called. She came in. The scanner said she was in the shower. He opened the curtain.

"Lailani?!" he shouted. She was passed out in the shower.

"Lailani, are you alright?" he asked, hoping she'd wake up.

"Ugh... W-What happened? Where am I?" she asked.

"According to Celeste, I was hungover. I think we might've drank too much alcohol last night. I don't remember a thing."

"Wait, Celeste?" she asked, getting up. She saw the blue skinned girl and got happy.

"Oh wow! Hi, Celeste." she greeted.

"Greetings, Lailani. I'm very happy to see you. I haven't seen you since I went to Inna De Poona a few months ago."

"Yeah, I've been staying with Justin for a bit. I plan on going back the day after New Year's."

"Okay, you two. We can catch up later. Right now, I need to find out what the hell happened last night. I still haven't found Momo."

"Right, let's look around for clues." the alien girl suggested. They went to the living room. Lailani couldn't believe how messy it was.

They looked in every spot, but there was no sign of the innocent cat-girl anywhere. He started to get worried.

"Oh my god... Where is she? It's not like her to run off like that."

"Don't worry, Justin. We'll find her." the Polynesian girl reassured.

Suddenly, a cell phone started ringing. It was his.

"Unknown number?" he said. Who was calling him? He picked it up.

"H-Hello?" he asked.

"Hi, Chico. I just wanted to say that I enjoyed that party last night. Merry Christmas!"

"Wait, hold on. Who is this?" he asked the Hispanic voice.

"You don't remember? It's Marlena." she said. Marlena? Who the heck was Marlena?

"Sorry, you must have the wrong number. I don't know anybody named Marlena."

"Ha, you funny. I know it's you, JD."

"Well, you know my name. But, can you tell me what happened last night? I can't remember anything."

"You know what? Sure. I can tell you. Drop by my studio and I can show you."

He hung up. This was so weird. But, he decided to go to the studio with Lailani. Unfortunately, Celeste decided to stay behind, due to trying to be hidden from the public during the day. But, she was going to try and clean up the mess while they were gone.

They went to the studio after Marlena texted him the address. Then, he met the woman face-to-face. She looked a lot like Jessie but with darker skin.

"Are you Marlena?" he asked the girl.

"Did someone order some strippers?" she shouted.

"Excuse me?" he asked, taking some offense to that.

"Well, big boy. I suggest you and your little girlfriend take your clothes off if you want any money."

"Are you a fucking comedian?" he yelled, extremely aggravated. This was no time to joke. Momo's life could be on the line.

"Ha! No, no. I'm just a woman. A very beautiful woman from Brazil. So, JD? What brings you here?"

"You know why I'm here. You said you could show me what happened at the party last night."

"Oh yeah, of course. Damn, you're such a different person when you're sober. But, here you go, Ese."

She handed him some photos. What was all this?

"Wait, are these from the party last night?" he asked.

"Yeah, they are. You a crazy party animal, you know?"

He looked at them. Some of those photos were disgusting. It looked as if everyone got drunk. But, one photo caught his eye. Was that...?

"Is that me and Tiffany?" he asked, addressing a specific photo.

"Yeah. It is." Lailani exclaimed.

He looked at it. The photo had them standing next to each other with a pastor in the middle. Did they get married when they were drunk?

"Oh fuck... Did I pretend to marry her last night?"

"You didn't pretend. You actually did get married." Marlena said.

"Oh no... Oh no!" he screamed. Him getting married to her after a few days was not his plan.

"This can't be. No, no. There has to be paperwork, right? It's not legal until it's documented."

Then, he looked at the next photo. It looked like they were signing some papers.

"Yep, I'm gonna kill myself now." he said. He was very upset with himself. He's always been against people getting married after two months, but a few days was even worse. Now, he looked like a total hypocrite.

"Calm down, Justin." Lailani said, trying to comfort him.

"Chill out, Ese. You should be happy."

"No, you don't understand. This goes against my morals. If I'm committed to a girl, I wait a couple of years before marrying them, or even proposing to them."

Marlena frowned. Was her showing him this a mistake?

"It alright, JD. Just try not to be bothered by it." the Brazilian woman said.

"Y-Yeah. Whatever. Thank you for showing me this... horrible mistake. But, it still doesn't answer the question about Momo."

"I'm sorry. Maybe, you should try to call your friends. Someone there should've been sober enough to know."

"You know what? I'll do that. Thank you, Marlena."

"No problem. Hey, if you wanna hang out or something, I'd be down. You seem like a cool dude."

This was pretty weird. He just met her the previous night and she already wanted to hang out?

"I'll consider it. But, I'll see you later."

"Take care, JD. And tell Misty I said hi."

Wait, did Jessie know her? I guess that would explain her looking similar. But, he grabbed his phone and started to make some calls. Perhaps Vinnie would know about what happened to Momo.

"H-Hello?" the ginger man answered.

"Hi, Vinnie. It's Justin."

"Oh, hi buddy. What's up?" he asked.

"Listen, we had a wild party last night. We were all drunk and don't remember much. Do you know where Momo went?"

"Eh... Hmm... Oh wait! Yeah, I know where she is. She's in my kitchen. She's asleep on the counter."

"Wait, really? So, she's alright?"

"Yeah, she's alright. She got drunk last night too. So, I carried her back to my house. She's so light."

"Yeah, she's only like 100 pounds. But, she's OK? No injuries? No scars?"

"Yes, Justin. She's perfectly fine. I'll bring her back to your house once she wakes up. Poor thing had so much alcohol. Though, I think someone might've put something extra in it."

"Yeah, that would make sense. But, thanks for telling me that she's okay. Now, I have to make a few other calls."

"Okay, talk to you later." they both hung up. It was a good thing that Momo was safe and sound. Now, it was time to call Audrey. She was probably the one who drugged the alcohol that Jessie brought.

"Um, hello?" the sassy girl said.

"Audrey, we need to have a serious talk." he said.

"Oh, yeah. Whatever." she said.

"Audrey, I know it was you that drugged the alcohol last night. What were you thinking?"

"I told you I had your Christmas gift in my purse, and I told you I'd give it to you later on. Well, Merry Christmas!"

"Audrey Belrose, that was the dumbest thing you've ever done. Everyone was drop dead drunk. What did you put in there?"

"I put Roofies in it. You should be thanking me."

"ROOFIES?! What the fuck?!"

"Yeah, Roofies. So what? You had a good time last night."

"No, I didn't because I barely remember it. And because of you, I have to call Tiffany and explain shit to her."

"Ha! Yeah, whatever. Listen, I've got to go. Have fun dealing with your new wife!" she said. Before he could speak again, she hung up. Audrey wasn't just a bitch, she was an evil bitch.

Finally, it was time to call Tiffany. This was going to be hard.

"Mmm... H-Hello?" she said. It sounded as if she had just woken up.

"Hi, Tiffany." he said.

"Oh, hey babe. Everything alright?" she asked.

"Uh... You wouldn't so happen to remember anything from last night, would you?"

"No, I don't. Why? What's the matter?"

So, she didn't know about the drunk marriage? He then thought to himself: Should he tell her the truth? Or should he try to cover it up?

"N-Nothing. Yeah, nothing. We just had a crazy night. Merry Christmas, Tiffany."

"Awe, you're so sweet. Yeah, I don't really remember much. I must've had too much to drink. I woke up with a migraine. So, do you have any plans for New Year's?"

"Not really. But, I'd like to spend it with you and Lailani, if that's OK."

"Yeah, that's totally fine, Justin. Honestly, I think we should go on an outing. How about we go to the scenic overlook and watch the fireworks at midnight?"

"That sounds amazing. Yeah, let's do that."

"Alright. I'll see you on the 31st." she said.

They hung up. It was bad to lie about what really happened, but she didn't need to know.

"Erm, Justin? Are you sure lying to her was the best choice?" Lailani said.

"I didn't lie to her, Lailani. I just didn't tell her the truth."

She frowned. This did seem wrong, but she could understand why he'd do that. They went back to his house. Celeste had cleaned up the mess that was made. Christmas time was officially over. Now, the new year was approaching. He wondered what would be in store for him next year?
