CHAPTER 5: DRINKING AFTERMATH

We stumbled out of the club around two in the morning. Everybody was slurring and by 'everybody', it included me. We were all in no state to drive so Tom called up their management and arranged for them to pick us up and drive us to their hotel.
The lads shared rooms which meant there'd be three people in each room. I got to stay with Harry and Danny and Rachel at Tom and Dougie's.
Me, Harry and Danny stumbled in their room. It was a big suite with one master's bed and a huge couch. I looked at the bed and at the lads.

"You sleep...there?" I pointed to the bed unable to speak straight.
"We take turns on the couch and bed." Harry replied in a meaningful sentence despite almost falling over.
"Okay. Where do I sleep? Floor?" I giggled slightly. I was so trashed and wasted.
"You get the bed. Harry's turn on the couch, I sleep.....somewhere. Good night." Danny said as he peeled off his shirt.
"Don't be silly. You get one side of the bed." I walked over to the right and shimmied under the covers.

--

I rubbed my eyes and slowly opened them. I felt the world's hugest head ache coming on. I looked at the clock, reading nine thirty-five AM. I ran towards my purse and rooted for my phone. I punched in Amanda's number and made her reschedule all my appointments.
With all that settled, I can go back to sleep. I dove under the covers again and was soon fast asleep.

--

When I checked the clock the second time I was up, it read two PM. I lazily made my way to the bathroom, had a gargle and splashed water on my face. I was very pale and every bit wasted.
I heard movement in the room and returned to see who was up. It was Danny. He sat up in bed, shirtless and he looked a lot like me.

"Did I wake you?" I'm sorry." I said softly to avoid waking up Harry.
"No. It's okay. Are you working today?"
"No. I called in sick. I'll be no use in this state anyway. Go back to sleep. You guys have a signing event to night. You might want to use up all the time you have for rest."
"Nah. Want to get coffee or something?"
"Sure. Can I borrow a shirt?"
"Yeah. Go ahead. I'll just shower."

I went out of the bathroom and headed to the dresser. I was about to open a drawer when Harry cute me off.

"You might not want to open that." He said groggily.
"Oh. So which one would I want to open?"
"Second one on the right. That's Danny's. I'll go back to sleep now." He buried his head under his pillows.
"Thanks." I muttered.

--

Half an hour later, I was in the hallway with Danny waiting for the lift. I had borrowed one graphic tee of his and slipped on my clothes.
We took a cab back to the Cavern and rode my car to the coffee shop.
Danny ordered some strong coffee and I ordered hot chocolate. We added in some bagels and chips to share on.
As we ate contentedly, we talked about out families, experiences, my job, the band and just about anything we could ever think of.
By the time our order was gone, we were both perked up and laughing, our hangovers nearly forgotten.
