Falling.

Colin Gomez was falling.

For what reason, he didn't know. All he knew was that he was rather quickly falling through the air, wind brushing against him like a hurricane. He felt his body picking up speed, a cannonball flying through the darkness.

All around him, voices whispered in his ears.

"Go home, Colin!"

"You ruined evrything!"

"It's all YOUR fault!"

"I HATE YOU!"

The last one hit him like a gut punch, causing him to tighten his eyes. He opened them after another minute, only to see what he most dreaded: the ground. He could smell the asphalt from where he sat in freefall.

He closed his eyes, bracing for impact...

The Next Morning...

Colin Gomez quickly opened his eyes to find himself on a bed.

A real bed, not his old air mattress at the Loud House. No, this was a real, king sized bed. It was the first thing he noticed after his dream; he, Colin, was not in his house.

The second thing he noticed was the MASSIVE hangover he had. It felt like both his head and his stomach would explode if he even touched them. He couldn't recall most of what had happened the other night, but he did remember drinking a lot of that grape juice… or was it?

The last thing he realized was that he was completely naked. Nothing but him and the covers.

"Ok, where am I? This isn't the house... and why don't have clothes on?" he said, trying to remember what had happened last night. He managed to recall certain stuff… the wild game of Truth or Dare, the grape juice, the horribly out of tune karaoke battle…

He remembered Luna. How they had been hanging out, last he remembered. How they had gone into-

Wait a minute...

Slowly, he turned his head to the side.

"Luna?"

Laying next to him was his girlfriend, who was still passed out on the bed. She wore a goofy grin on her face, like she was in the middle of a sweet dream.

But this was no dream. Colin had slowly put the pieces together while she slept.

"Oh, no. Oh no, oh no, oh no..." he said silently as he reached over and shook his girlfriend awake.

"Luna! Chica, wake up!"

"Uhhh... what?"

"Wake up!"

"Not so loud, dude! My head is killing..." she said, shut her voice trailed off as she saw the predicament they were in.

"Colin?"

"Did we just..."

"OH, GOD!" Luna yelled as the got out of bed. Colin followed suit, almost falling face first on the floor trying to gather his clothing.

"This is bad, Love! Really, really, BAD!"

"You're telling me?!" Colin said as he threw on his shirt. "There were like, 50 people here! Someone had to have walked in in us... you know... doing it!"

"Well, we can't focus on it now! Check the time!"

Colin reached to get his phone, but at that moment, a very tired Jim walked into the room.

"Guys... what are you doing here? the party is over..." he said, obviously not connected to reality yet.

"Oh, uh, we were just, uhm, leaving! Yeah, we were leaving!"

"Good. The partys been over for, like, an hour now...It's 5 in the morning!"

"Oh, crap, oh crap oh crap..." Colin thought, frantic. Someone HAD to have noticed. Maybe even Bobby and Lori!

"Wait, did Bobby and Lori leave? They were our ride!"

"Oh, yeah, they, um, left around 2. They couldn't find you and all, so they said to be home by 6:30 or some shit."

"Ok, so we have an hour to get home. Thanks, Jim," he said as he and Luna rushed out of the room and outside.

"Well, that's one way to start the New Year..." he mumbled as he lay down passed out onto the bed.

30 Minutes Later…

The early morning was surprisingly good weather in Royal Woods, at least for January. The air was just the right amount of frigid, allowing easy breathing for anyone walking through it. A light snow fell, dusting everything in its path with white.

On the corner of Joel Avenue and Savino Street, Colin struggled to maneuver his way through the dim light.

"Are we almost home, Luna? I can't see the road..."

"I think so," she said, stonefaced.

"Chica, why are you mad at me?" He asked, knowing fully why she was mad at him. Not even mad, PISSED.

"You know why."

"Oh, come on, Luna, it was an accident! We were pitch black drunk!"

"It doesn't matter, Colin. It's still..."

"I couldn't help it! I don't remember anything last night! It was-"

"Colin, we've been dating for about a week! One! Week!"

"And it's probably been the best week of my life!"

"And I'm not saying it wasn't, Colin!"

"Then why aren't you happy with this?"

"I don't know! It's just…"

She sat down on the curb, putting her head into her hands. Colin soon followed suit, gently grabbing her arm.

"Its just what?"

"It just feels...weird, you know? I mean… isn't the first time supposed to be…"

"I know, babe. It could've gone better, I know..."

"And it isnt even the biggest deal! Colin, what if I get-"

"You won't be, Chica. Hopefully. It's too early to tell."

Luna leaned her head on Colins shoulder. He laid his head on hers, closing his eyes.

"No matter what happens, Chica, I'll still love you. You know that, right?"

"Of course I do. And I love you more, you know."

"Please. I love you to the moon and back."

"Well, I love YOU to the moon and back, twice!"

"Well, I love you to..."

30 Minutes Later...

"Ok, I think we know how much we love each other now," Luna told Colin as she began to stand up.

"Yeah, well, I still love you more."

"Oh, shut up! We both agreed that I won!"

"The test was rigged. I demand a recount."

"Oh, Love..." she mumbled as they arrived at the front door to the house. They quietly took their spare key out, opened the door, and snuck in to find Lori and Bobby waiting for them.

"About time you finally came home."

A solid 5 seconds of silence passed before Colin began to stammer.

"L-l-look, chica, I know we're late, but go easy on us, will ya?"

"Well, it's a good thing that Mom and Dad don't wake up until 7 to get ready for work, isn't it? Consider yourself lucky to get to deal with me."

"Lori, if you tell mom and dad ANYTHING, then-"

"Where were you guys, anyways? The party ended and we couldn't find you anywhere!"

"Well, uh, we went to the convenience store to get food," Luna lied, trying not to draw suspicion to themselves. "Yeah, we just needed a break from the party, you know..."

"Well, we were worried sick! We just assumed you came home early and left. Guess it's a good thing that we told Jim, isn't it?"

"Yeah, totally," Colin agreed, but at that moment, his head started to scream in pain. He quickly tried to sit down on the couch.

"Colin, are you alright?" Lori asked him, looking a lot more concerned than before.

"Y-yeah, I'm fine. Just a headache..."

"Colin, do you have a hangover?" She asked him seriously.

"-sigh- well, there wouldn't be any use in lying, would there? Yeah, I do."

"You must have drank a lot of champagne last night..."

"Well, I thought it was grape juice, OK? I must've mixed up the bags or something."

"I can tell. You look horrible. Why don't you guys go and sleep for a while?"

"Sounds great!" He said as he stood up. He really didn't care at the moment for Lori to find out what they had really been doing for the past few hours. "I'm gonna go sleep all day now. I'm exhaus-"

"AH HA! WE CAUGHT YOU!" Bobby said tiredly as he was woke up.

"Little too late for that, Bobby," Colin said as he walked downstairs, not taking his sweet time at all getting there. He soon fell on the mattress and fell asleep, not even thinking about that mornings events.

I freaking hate school, you know that?

It's tough to get all of my work done and turned in. I don't have time for anything right now. And worst off, I haven't been able to write! And THAT is the biggest travesty of all!

No, but in all seriousness, I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while. I promise I'll try harder in the future to update my stories. I love doing this, and I sure love all the people who read this...
