Past
Brandy wakes up shivering heavily from the cold.
"W-why i-s it so co-cold" Brandy thought to herself as she proceeded to open her eyes. She saw what appeared to be a forest where she was sleeping and another dog, he was a husky, his eyes looked tired, he seemed very sick and he was trying to wake Brandy up.
"Hey you're alive, thought i lost you there for a second." Said the husky in a hungover voice.
"John. Where are we and what the asbsolute hell happened yesterday?"
"I have no answer to either of those questions, yesterday was pretty wild from what i remember."
"Pretty wild huh? Why the fuck are we in a forest of all things?!" Brandly exclaimed loudly.
"Jesus! Tone it down my head hurts."
"Last time i ever decide to do anything with you again."
"We all know that ain't happening."
"Yeah... fuck you too."
Brandy gets up from the ground, then a sudden urge to vomit proceeds to hit her, she leans over a tree and vomits, it smelled like whisky. The vomit looked like it had a few pieces of undigested food.
"Hey, i think i see the sandwich you were eating yesterday."
"Shut up, *gasps* i don't need *gasps* your comments *gasps* right now." Brandy said whilst gasping for air after vommiting.
"Maybe breathe normally again and then i will consider your request." Said John in a comedic voice.
"This never happened before, so how did we go and manage to do this?"
"What never happened? Us waking up in a forest? Or us vommiting after a crazy night?"
"Seriously, stop the jokes, now." Brandy said in a deadly serious voice.
"Okay, okay, can't have anything these days it seems."
"You're goddamn right, anyways where do we go?"
"Well i mean we could barely walk, so i doubt we wandered of far away, maybe we can go back to the cabin in that direction?"
"If we start starving i promise that i will eat you first." Said Brandy while she walked in the direction that John suggested.
"Yes ma'am..." John said quietly.
After what felt like years of walking the pair managed to come back to the cabin they were partying at yesterday.
"See? i was right."
"You got lucky, just like all those times the teacher callled you infront of the class, how did you manage not to look like you chugged down a whole bottle of vodka and then asked for seconds?"
"Well i can act really well, now can't i?"
"No, no you can't. As i did say, you got lucky."
"You seem really pissy today."
"I wonder why."
Brandy said before the pair went in the cabin. They saw a pitbull sitting on a bed.
"Huh... Bran-dy, ha! i want some more Brandy!" The pitbull said in a drunken voice.
"When the hell did you stop drinking?" John said in a confused voice.
"A couple hours ago at most, that's when the booze ran out."
"Mike... How are you not asleep then?" Brandy asked.
"Well i was, then i had to go and take a piss and now you came back." Mike replied.
John gets into a bed and tries to sleep.
Brandy sighs as she checks the time. It reads "7:30"
"Till when did you rent this cabin? John?" Brandy asked.
"Uhhhh... 12... 12:30." John said in a half asleep voice.
"Okay then... Mike you get your ass back to sleep, same too you, John."
"Ye-s ma'am!" Mike said loudly before falling down on his pillow. John just gave a thumbs-up.
"Pretty sure Mia or Amelia can drive us back, i mean they did stop pretty early, i should learn that, considering i woke up in a fucking forest with John... Wait... Did we? Ah whatever, in the end of the day, it doesn't really matter considering we don't even remember yesterday, time to go to sleep." Brandy thought to herself as she took a blanket and laid down on a sofa to sleep.
It was quiet in the cabin. Everyone was sleeping. Brandy thought it was a bit eerie, but she was to tired to care.
4 hours later
"Hey, wake up." Said a female voice. "Hey. Hey. HEY! WAKE UP!" Brandy, startled from the yell, fell off the couch.
"Oh jesus... Cmon get up." The german shepard offered her hand.
Brandy accepts it and gets up from the ground.
"Next time, don't yell. You scared the living shit out of me, Mia." Brandy said angrily.
"I tried to be gentle, but you are a heavy sleeper afterall."
"Pretty sure the reason why i didn't wake up was because i have a hangover that's drilling inside my head, not because i'm a heavy sleeper."
"Drink less then."
"What's the point, we are here to have fun after all."
"I don't know how getting shitfaced is fun, but sure, you do you i guess."
"Yeah, yeah, enough of the bullshit, what time is i?"
"You forgot where the clock is?" Mia said jokingly.
"ha-ha. Very funny." Brandy looks at the clock and it reads "11:49"
"Now go take a shower or wash your face or whatever, we only got till 12:30."
"Yeah i know and can you please shut the fuck up? My head does not like hearing anyone talk."
"i will stop whenever you fix yourself up, you look horrible, control your drinking next time perhaps?" Mia said as she walked off.
Brandy was annoyed by Mia constantly treating her like a child.
"It was a party we were having and i can't get drunk?" Brandy thought to herself as she walked too the bathroom to take a shower.
The bathroom was small, grey tiles with nothing decorating it. Brandy got in the shower and turned on the water, the water was very hot and brandy stared to jump in response.
"Nope, nope, nope, too hot, how do i? Where is the switch? Oh there it is, let the water be cold."
Brandy took a cold and very much needed shower, it gave her time to reflect on what she is doing with her life.
"I swear, i need to find a healthier way to have fun than going and doing whatever with them, god yesterday is such a blur, 3 damn years i spent with him and it went nowhere, i finished uni got a boring desk job and i'm currently renting an apartment, god i think people who are 25 already have figured out their lifes, but then there is me, went through a break up, my life is boring and the only way i know how to have fun is doing dumb shit with the friends i practically knew all of my life, dad says 'it happens to the best of us, people can never know what will happen in their lifes and they can never truly know what they wanna do with their lifes.' I at least wanna know something more than just 'work, sleep, party, sleep' and repeat. I really do need to find a hobby and have fun instead of drinking and smoking, half the time i don't think i actually get any fun from doing that."
"Brandy! Are you almost done?!" Said Mia.
"Yeah! One second!"
Brandy got out of the shower, dried herself off and went out of the bathroom.
"Here's some mouthwash, your breath smells like alcohol and weed."
"You can thank John and Mike for that." Brandy takes the mouthwash and uses it.
"Here's your mouthwash back, are we leaving right now?"
"Yeah, cmon let's go, Amelia will drive us back."
"Yay... So fun..." Brandy said sarcastically.
They all get in the car and start chatting about what happened yesterday.
"Tell me. Does anyone know why me and John went to the forest yesterday and stayed there all night?" Asked Brandy.
"Wait you two went out in the woods?! What did you two do?" Both Mia and Amelia giggled.
"Oh shut up, i don't remember anything, nor does he. That is why i'm asking if you two would know why."
"We went to sleep way earlier then you three, no possibility for us to know, what about Mike? Did you ask him?"
"No, although considering how he was, doubt he remembers anything..."
"Looks like this one is a mystery, forever." Amelia said trying to sound mysterious.
"Yeah, if i don't remember, i guess it wasn't so good." Brandy said jokingly.
"If it ever happened." Said Mia.
"You're not worried they will hear us talking about this?" Said Amelia sounding concerned.
"Mike is passed out, same with John and he also has earphones in, so i doubt they heard any of this." Brandy said.
"I'm still surprised Mike is alive to this point, the shit he does, makes me worried for his liver." Mia said.
"Well didn't he find a bottle of... What was it? Whisky? In like the sixth grade?"
"Seven i think, but yeah he always tortured his liver it seems..."
"I still can't get the amount of puke i saw that day, it will be on my gravestone." Brandy said jokingly.
"God the amount of shit we did in our lifes... Hard to believe we are still alive." Said Mia sounding disappointed.
"Well it was mostly when we were 15-16 that age was craaazyy."
"Yeah i mean it all ended after that one night."
"Oh god, that night was too crazy even for Mike. Surprised he didn't loose his license."
"Last time im letting him drive, i mean he was sober, but he decided to do a dumb thing and bam, no more car, why did his parents even let him borrow their car, they knew how he was like."
"No clue, my dad was not happy to know i was in a car crash."
"I mean we weren't going fast, he flipped the car, no one got hurt well i was scared shitless, but everyone was okay, didn't you walk back home all the way?"
"Yeah, god i swear my legs still hurt from all that walking and when i told my dad he was... Worried to say the least, don't blame him though."
"Neither would i, but yeah that was when all the dumb shit we did stopped."
"Yeah, i mean it stopped Mike, so you know it's serious."
"He may be dumb as rocks and dull as rusted iron, but he does care about us, in his own way."
"Yeah, he does."
The rest of the car ride was quiet, there were some other things mentioned, but mostly everyone was quiet and tired. Except for Mia and Amelia as they went to sleep way earlier then the rest of their friend group.
Brandy got dropped-off at her apartment. it was decently sized, decently decorated, but it felt very empty to her, the guy she had been with for 3 years left her over another woman, Brandy felt betrayed, but she didn't care much anymore, her life was pretty boring, she worked and slept and whenever her friends invited her to anything she went. She wanted more fun in her life, she tried several hobbies, but she didn't like any of them. She didn't know what to do, she had been dating again, but no luck, it felt for her like her life was meaningless. She didn't know what to do and she didn't know if she ever would.
