Sky: The hell you are! Get your sorry ass out of bed and put some actual clothes on.

Sofie: Yeah, bum. We don’t want to see those ratty sweats again. I want sexy!

Samantha: I’m on my way to drag you out.

Sofie: Fuck that. We’re all on our way.

Sky: Yeah, so you better be ready.

Well, shit. They weren’t going to let this go. The only thing worse than being forced to pretend happiness was being ganged up on by all your friends and then being forced to smile.

Deciding to make a point, I ran into my bedroom and pulled out my sick sweats. I usually reserved these for when I was deathly ill and couldn’t care less about appearances. They were so comfy too, the sweatshirt sporting several holes in the neckline area and hanging off my shoulders like an exercise shirt from the eighties.

Stripping out of the outfit I wore for the photo shoot, I quickly donned the cotton sweats, mussing up my hair a bit in the process.

They weren’t going to force me to be presentable tonight, that was for damn sure.

I didn’t even bother taking my phone with me, leaving it on my bed as I nearly ran to the kitchen, pulling every bottle of booze I had from the cupboard and setting them all on the island counter with several thuds and clanks. I then grabbed a handful of Solo cups, lining them up in a row of four as a bartender would do when making an order of shots.

Now they’d know just how fucking serious I was.

Grabbing the bottle of Goldschläger, I watched the thin gold flecks float around as I tipped it a few times, mixing it up before twisting the lid off. It was my favorite shooter liquor, made of Swiss cinnamon schnapps that warmed my insides quickly. I usually only reserved it for when I really needed to get the job done, and fast.

Pouring about two fingers worth in each Solo, I stood and waited, the bottle in one hand and the cup in another. It was almost comical when I could hear their laughter and voices echoing in the lobby as they exited the elevator.

Thankfully, I didn’t care enough to lock the door when I came home.

Without even bothering to knock, Sky pushed her way through my front door, holding it open for Sofie and Sam to pass through. All three of my friends froze in place once they caught sight of me.

“Aw, hell, Maci,” Sky whined, her hands going immediately to her hips as she crossed the room. “We’ll do shots, but not while you’re dressed in your pity me sweats.”

I didn’t even bother responding with words. Instead, I slammed the bottle of Goldschläger down on the counter with a loud smack before downing all four cups of liquor in a row, one after another, after another, after another, until they were all gone.

I felt the buzz hit me immediately, my esophagus warming at a rapid pace as each one went down with a smooth roll.
