We made it to day 200! That's crazy stuff right there. Thank you guys so much for reading!
Ava opened her eyes and groaned. Her head was killing her. She blinked and looked at her surroundings in confusion. Where was she?
Slowly, the events from last night caught up to her. She had been out with a group of friends, and they of course had brought alcohol. Ever since she had turned 21, drinking seemed to be all that her friends wanted to do with her.
The party had been fun, but Ava had gotten a little more drunk than she would probably have liked. One thing had led to another, and she had gone home with a guy she had never met before.
"Oh no," Ava groaned. She looked over hesitantly and sighed in relief at seeing an empty spot next to her. And then she realized what had happened. She had just had a one-night stand.
"Great," she said. "My mothers are going to kill me."
Ava hesitantly walked up to the front door, trying to see if anyone was up yet. The house looked pretty dead, which meant that maybe she could sneak in and just go up to her room.
If she weren't home for break, it would have been a lot easier to just sneak back into her dorm room like nothing had happened. But things never seemed to work out for her that way.
Taking a deep breath, Ava opened the front door and slipped inside the mansion. She turned and closed the door behind her, sighing in relief. No one seemed to be up.
"Where were you last night?" Regina asked.
Ava jumped and spun around. "Mom. You're up."
Regina just looked at her, waiting for her question to be answered. Ava sighed. "I was out with some friends, and we got a little drunk. I knew that you wouldn't want me to drive home, so I just stayed at Tia's house."
Regina looked at her skeptically. "And nothing happened while you were drunk?"
"Nope," Ava said. "Nothing at all."
"Hey, look who's home," Emma said, walking into the foyer. "I thought I heard your voice."
Ava sighed. Of course she had to deal with both of her mothers at once. "Yep. Just stayed out late, that's all."
Emma looked her up and down, her jaw dropping. "No way. You didn't."
Ava blushed. "What are you talking about?"
"Don't play dumb with me," Emma scolded. "You got laid didn't you?"
Regina gasped. "Ava!"
"What?" Ava asked. "I'm not a little girl anymore. I know what sex is."
"But to have a one night stand?" Regina asked. "And while drunk? We raised you better than this."
Ava rolled her eyes. "You're making it a bigger deal than it is."
"How?" Regina asked. "You could get pregnant! Do you even know whom it was with? Or was he just gone when you woke up?"
Ava sighed. "He was gone when I woke up. No idea who he was."
Regina groaned and ran her fingers through her hair. "I swear if you get pregnant-"
"It'll be her own fault, and we'll help her through it," Emma interrupted. She grabbed Regina's hand, squeezing gently. "She's right, she's not a little girl anymore. She can make her own choices."
Regina sighed. "I suppose so. Just, please consider not doing anything like this again?"
Ava laughed. "Believe me, I do not want another hangover like the one I had last night. I'm never drinking again."
"I was talking about the one night stand part," Regina said.
"Oh," Ava said. "Yeah, I suppose I could not do that again too."
"You suppose?" Regina asked. "You were planning on doing it again?"
Emma rolled her eyes and let go of Regina's hand, leaving the room. She was done trying to keep things manageable. Ava was on her own.
I have more chapters for you all, I promise! I'll upload them as soon as I'm done writing and trying to catch up.
