Who the hell kept ringing my phone?
I swirled for it, knocking over a half-empty bottle, my head pounding like a marching band. Finally grabbed it, screen bright with missed calls.
“Nicole Josephine Winter, where the f**k are you??” H.P’s voice blasted through, cutting my skull in two.
My brain jolted awake, reality slamming back too fast.

“You didn’t what? And your friends? None of them are answering. Put Lucy on, now.”
Her words shot out without breathing…
Oh God.
“They’re still sleeping,” I lied.

My eyes darted to the clock. 10:47 a.m. Saturday.
Shit..
“Where the hell are you?!”
“I’ll call you back, H.P.” I cut her off before she lectured me on liars and what no
