B&B: Bed and Boyfriend

Saving Megan

When I woke up, I was already in my room. My head hurts a lot because maybe it's because of the alcohol. After all, I drank a lot last night. I immediately got up from my bed and went to the bathroom. I was still at Dad's house. No one else knows about my home except my family.

I looked at the mirror in the bathroom. I still look pretty even though I haven't taken a bath yet. When I got down, I immediately saw Bella, Reina, and Leon in the dining area. I didn't know they were still here. They looked at me with a frown as if I had done something wrong last night. I went closer to them; I had not yet approached the table when a maid of Dad immediately greeted me.

"Miss Megan, this is for your headache," she said as she handed me the medicine. I took the pill and went to my seat. I looked at them, and they looked like they were waiting for me to speak.

"What?" surprising with mixed confusion, I question them.

"I heard you got drunk last night? And Sebastian delivered you back here. Is that right?" Leon said.

"And?" sarcastically, I said.

"You don't know what you did?" I was shocked and amazed at what he said. I raised my eyebrows as I waited for him to speak, but he just continued eating, so I looked in Reina's direction.

"What is it?" I asked her without sound. It's easy for Reina to read mouths. She looked at me with narrowed eyes.

"What is it? Tell me. Did I do something bad last night?" I asked.

-Yes-

-Yes-

-Yes- they said at the same time.

I immediately looked at Bella with mixed surprise on my face. I don't know what's happening. I want to know about it, but they don't want to speak.

"Fine! If you don't want to talk, okay. I won't force any of you to tell me. And I'm out of here. I have to go now," I said and started walking. I thought they would stop me, but no, they just continued to eat and ignored me.

I was right in front of the door when suddenly a maid stopped me. "Ms. Megan, you need to eat at least a little before you take medicine," she reminded me. I nodded my head and was immediately went out of the house. I was in my car when suddenly someone called on my cellphone. It was an unknown number, I frowned, but I still answered it.

"Hello? Shannela Megan speaking,"

"It's me," I frowned at what he said.

"What who?"

"It's Matthew, and you have to pay for something you damage," he said.

"What are you saying?" I asked him.

"You choke at my suit. There's a scratch on my car because of you. Don't you remember?" I suddenly thought of what I had done last night.

Immediately my eyes widened at the things I was worried about. I covered my mouth by knowing the nonsense I did last night.

Last night ...

I was so drunk when I got in his car. I could smell his perfume that gave a smile to my lips. "How could someone like you smells so good?" I said while closing my eyes. I was out of my mind when I said those things.

Sevi was driving. All of a sudden, I felt like I wanted to vomit while traveling. I raised my head and looked at him with a smile.

"What are you doing?" he asked me. I smiled at him, and that's when I started vomiting in front of him.

"What the-!" he was cursing, but I just laughed at what I did. I immediately wiped with my hands. Eww! What you did is disgusting, Megan. But it's not all over yet. After a minute, I looked at Sevi again, and I couldn't see his face well, but I just smiled at him.

"I can drive, Sevi," I said and leaned over to grab the steering wheel from him.

"What are you doing ?! We're going to collide with what you're doing! Are you going to smash my car, huh?" he screamed at me, but all I did was laugh out loud. I look crazy at what I'm doing. Because of my awkwardness and madness, his car crashed. I don't know where his car crashed. I was still laughing when the car crashed.

"I'm sorry," I uttered, and right at that moment, I fell asleep.

I'm back in the present time while I'm talking to Sevi on the cellphone. I was in my car while talking to him. "I can pay for that. I'm so sorry, and I don't know what I did last night," I lied because I was ashamed of what I did to him. I think I can't face him anymore.

"What the hell ?! You don't remember what you did? All that?!" it looks like Sebastian Lozano is mad at a Megan Peterson like me.

"I'm so sorry, Sevi. I can't remember. I'll wire you the money for the repair. I have to go now, bye," I hurriedly ended the call and took a deep breath.

"That was a close call," I sighed in relief and started to drive. I'm going to my house now. I am the only one here, and I don't even have maids and caretakers of the house. I will only call the home service if the house is too dirty. But, it never went messy because I was a neat person. I always clean my house before I leave to go to the company.

I got home; I went inside, and immediately, a quiet and fresh air from the trees in the backyard opened up to me. I rolled my eyes inside my house, "I miss the peace of this house," I said, and I immediately went to my room and directly lay down on the bed. I sighed and looked at the ceiling. I still feel sleepy, but the hunger, I think, comes first. I grabbed my stomach and immediately got up again.

"What should I eat? I don't even know how to cook," yes, it's true. I don't know how to cook, and I'm not interested in taking a course on cooking. I'm okay to order food on apps and restaurants; it's too easy than to cook.

I walked downstairs, but it looked like someone was inside the house when I was going down. I stopped taking a step and got back upstairs again. I glimpse around and downstairs, and I see a man wearing all black and still wearing a mask. I step back as the nervousness build inside me.

I immediately slowly returned to my room, locking the door without making any sound. As soon as I took my cellphone, I called Leon. His phone rang, but he didn't answer; then I remembered that Leon had a hearing today. I rested intensely again and immediately called Bella.

"Hey, this is Bella. Leave a note after the beep," I sighed and called out to Reina.

"Hey, this is Reina. Leave a note after the beep," I needed them the most today, which they weren't answering any of my calls. I gasp as I hear footsteps on the stairs. I was trembling with fear because I had no one at home. I didn't even know what to do. I could hear a loud bang from downstairs, and it looked like he was not alone, but they were two. I have no choice but to call the person I don't want to see today. I swallowed and immediately dialed his number.

"What now? Do you remember what you did-" I interrupted what he said, "I need you," I said in a calm and panting voice. He was speechless at the moment.

"What the hell are you doing? What the hell are you saying?" I gasped softly as I started to talk to him.

"Someone's here," I said softly.

"What are you talking about?"

"Someone's inside my house. Two men,"

"What? Where are you?"

"I-I'll send you the address," I said in a trembling voice and immediately typed my address and sent it to him.

Meanwhile, while waiting for Sevi to arrive, I hid first in my big closet inside my bedroom. My hands are already sweating because of the nervousness and fear I feel. The pounding of my chest quickened while still hidden in the closet. All I want to do right now is to escape.

A loud crash I heard from outside my room. It seems like the men are opening all the rooms on the second floor. I just covered my mouth as I listened to their loud footsteps on the floor.

"I think this is her room," I heard from outside, which was further strengthened by the beating of my chest. I rested intensely, and I could feel every sweat dripping down my face towards my cheek. I took out my phone while my hands were shaking. I was about to text him when suddenly, my phone rang. I was startled and immediately heard them running towards my room. Directly if the cellphone is silent and he answers the call.

"Where are you? I'm outside," I immediately felt more hopeful when I heard and knew that he was already here. Even though I was nervous, I didn't tell him that I was nervous anymore.

"I-I'm up upstairs," I was about to say when suddenly there was a knock on my door.

"Open this!" said a man outside and immediately fired the doorknob, and it immediately opened. I was gasping, and the call ended.

I swallowed hard as I heard their footsteps coming into my closet. I was covering my mouth as my sweat dripped down my face. I peeked through the hole in my closet and saw that the man was about to open the cabinet when Sevi suddenly came and punched him in the back. One man fell, but the other came again. I was so surprised to see him fight with men with guns. I then take the opportunity to call the police.

"Hello, Philippine National Police Hotline. Can I help you?"

"This is Megan, and I need you to send police to my place. There are two men inside my house. Stealing my things, and they have guns,"

"What's your address, ma'am?"

"I'll send the address," I immediately sent the address to the police. Everything around became quiet, so I peeked into the hole again when it suddenly opened, which surprised me that caused me to be out of balance. I was about to fall to the floor when he suddenly caught me. It was Sevi who caught up with me. His arms wrapped around my waist, and I could feel his warm breath. He was panting.

We stared but, "Are you okay?" that was the first word that came out of his mouth. I don't know, but I feel something else at these times. I didn't believe in the slow-mo moment, but now, I thought it. It was real.

"Hey, are you okay?" I immediately woke up and came back to sanity.

"Yes,"

"We need to go out now," he said and took my hand, and we slowly walked over to the men on the floor he had knocked down. I also saw the wound on his face, and it was bleeding. He had bruises on his hand and cheek.

We are running now while he is still holding my hand. We were outside when suddenly one of the men fired. "Duck!" he shouted at me, and we immediately bowed.

"They're running away!" the man shouts at us. We ran out of the house, but by unexpected chance, Sevi got shot. He was hit by one of the bullets fired by the man. He got shot on his shoulders. My mouth widened while looking at him.

"Sevi, you're bleeding," I said to him, but he didn't seem to care. He was grunting but stood still.

"We need to go,"

"What about your gunshot?"

"This is not important. The important thing is that we get out of here," Svi replied, and we immediately walked out. It is also true that when we got out, and the police arrived.

The police have entered and are looking for the men who broke into my house. I don't care about any of those things, and my attention right now is on him. The ambulance also arrived and immediately rushed Sevi. I went with him because I was also the reason a bullet hit him. I was about to cry while seeing him. I don't want someone's life to be put in danger and get hurt because of me.

"I'm sorry, Sevi. All of this is all my fault,"
