Despite telling both Tatum and Hunter she wouldn't miss the party for the world, Sera really didn't feel much in the partying mood at all. She'd spent most of the day in bed, just trying to decide if she'd even bother getting up. At six o'clock she still hadn't even changed out of her pajama's from the night before or picked out an outfit for the party, which she would have normally made sure to do days in advance.

Around quarter after six after Mick and Madeline had decided, for some reason, to stay in for the night. Sera finally decided to at least go to Mack's house. She didn't know what their plan was, but even the idea of any sort of family night just seemed unbearable. She still couldn't look him in the face and hated having to constantly act like nothing was wrong. But atleast he didn't hate her, right? She just needed time to get used to how things had to be.Time to get over Jenny.

Opening her closet Sera looked around for the few minute before grabbing a black dress and stuffing it in her backpack on the floor by her feet. Normally she would have made sure to fold everything perfectly but she really just couldn't be bothered. She could just charm the wrinkles out later if she had to but she didn't think it would matter. She really had no intention of wearing it, she was going but she was in no mood to be social.

Her plan was simple show up a little early, talk to as few people as possible and find a quiet place to hide out before the rest of the school showed up. She didn't feel like talking about what everybody got for Christmas, or like laughing and joking around. She especially didn't feel like talking about Jenny, or getting berated for breaking up with her, which was pretty sure was coming at some point. Probably from more than one person.

Arriving at Mack's house, Sera said very little and took the first opportunity she could to slip upstairs to the spare bedroom. It was basically Hunter's room anyway and she knew the blond would be downstairs most of the evening. It seemed like the perfect place to camp out. Having flopped down on the huge bed, the brunette wasted no time pulling back on the sweatpants from her bag and pulling out the bottle of wine she had stolen from Madeline's wine cabinet. It was New Years, she figured.

When Sera heard someone opening the door she was just finally on the verge of dozing off, and about half way through the bottle. It hadn't been the easiest either, even with the blankets pulled up and the door shut she could still hear the party gradually getting louder downstairs. When she heard Hunter speak, she pulled the blankets up even farther over her head and grasped desperately for them when Hunter ripped them off her. Losing the blanket completely she grabbed Hunter's cowboy plush next to her on the bed and threw it at the older girl.

"No fuck off I don't want to, I'm staying up here. Just leave me alone." She flopped back down on the pillow and then sat back up to look at Hunter for just a second. "Am I allowed to smoke in here?"

Hunter wasn't even mildly put off by any of the animosity that Sera showed toward her. She just grinned weakly as she tossed the balled up blanket onto the floor, turning just in time to duck the stuffed cowboy sailing her way. "Hey, don't be a cunt, it's a party night!" she pouted at the younger girl as she moved over to sit on the edge of her bed and look at the brunette closely.

"Yer comin' down and that's final so ya better get your ass out my bed and get that little party dress on before I drag ya down in sweats!" the tall blonde threatened, pointing her index finger sharply at Sera. "I mean it, kid, count of three!"

When Sera asked if she could smoke in the room, Hunter made a face at her. "No, go downstairs and do it outside like everybody else! You can't be smokin' them fuckin' cancer sticks around my boo no more. Out the door wit' ya.."

Pausing for a moment, another thought struck her. "Wait, wait, wait though.. you're smokin' again? Is this some part of yer.. y'know, brooding French persona you got goin' on?"

Even with the sharpness in Hunter's voice Sera made no real moves to get off the bed. She pushed her head into the pillow, trying to pretend she wasn't listening. "Seriously, fuck off." She managed, cutting off Hunter just before she started counting. "I'm not going downstairs". Her voice was completely muffled by the pillow and she was barely understandable.

"I can't go downstairs. Nevermind. Just forget I said it. It doesn't matter if I'm smoking again." She rolled over, reaching around on the floor next to the bed. Pulling up the half empty bottle of wine she took another big swig and replaced the bottle on the table text to the bed, flopping her head back against the pillow.
"I always kind of smoked. I don't have a brooding French persona though. What does that even mean?" She finally flipped over on her back looking at Hunter, she couldn't help smirking just a bit. "Seriously I'm not brooding. I just don't wanna have to talk to anybody."

"You are goin' downstairs, that's why y'all fuckin' came here! Party, remember? We're havin' one of them? And you are gonna come down an' enjoy it if it's the last thing I ever make ya do," Hunter insisted, glaring at the younger girl as she spoke and still brandishing that index finger. "If you don't come down, I'll go an' drink that whole polyjuice potion, turn into a sexy gentleman, and go hit on your lady love."

It was probably a pretty unfair dig to tease her about Jenny so soon after, but Hunter figured that getting her riled up was her only chance to get her out of the room. Whatever she had to say, she'd say it.

When Sera pulled the bottle of wine into sight, Hunter snorted loudly. "The ol' wine-o is back! I knew ya wanted to party!" she crowd. "Why ya drinkin' that shit though? I went an' got a couple bottles of your favorite down there, y'know.. the real creme de la creme of fancy Frenchie wines. You know the ones, girl."

Flopping horizontally across the bottom of the bed, Hunter sighed loudly. "Whatever," she relented. "It means yer a whiny bitch, by the way.. which ya are."

"Fuck off, don't talk about her, you wouldn't do that." She sat up on the bed glancing to the side where Hunter was sitting. "Besides it's still cheating, if you do it I'll tell Michi... Why can`t I just hang out up here for a bit. There`s too many people who probably already know what happened. I don't wanna talk about it, especially Jenny and what if she's here."

She flopped back down on the bed starring up at the ceiling. "Nope not doing it. What if she's down there? What if she's with someone? You don't think she is right? I can't see her right now. It's too soon. It gonna be hard enough at school." She trailed off a bit rolling on her side away from Hunter to face the wall.

"Yeah whatever. Maybe when I'll come down for a bit when I'm done this bottle, if I'm drunk enough. Did you really get me two bottles though?" She asked.

She wanted to argue with the blond but even she couldn't disagree completely, she knew she was being at least kind of whiny but she felt like crap.

"Oh quit bein' a pussyfoot!" Hunter cried, scooching herself closer to Sera and gently prodding the younger girl in the back as she faced the wall. "Who cares who knows what? It ain't there business to be discussin' and I'll punch 'em right in the knob if I hear any of it. You think I wanna hear people talkin' shit about Michi, askin' bout the baby an' shit and bein' rude? No way, but that's life. Ignore it. People think they know shit, even when they ain't got a clue, that's school.. we ain't even back yet and I already heard about ten stories about how when she said she was a dyke, your dad chucked your sister out of a movin' car or some other bullshit."

Flopping more onto her back, but still poking at Sera, the blonde sighed loudly. "So what if she comes, too? No offense kid, but y'all broke up with her.. if'n she wants to come up here with a new bitch on her arm, you gotta give up and let 'er. You turned her loose, remember? Be free, little cheerleader."

Finally sitting up, propping herself against the headboard more, Hunter took Sera's wine right from her and took a great big swig, gagging a bit. "Sick," she coughed. She didn't know how the younger girl drank that stuff while she was sober. Hunter could chug it with champs once she was drunk, but if she started out trying to drink it first, it just tasted like old grapes and gym socks.

"To answer ya by the way.. yeah I did get ya two bottles, yeah I will take that potion and fuck yer girl, and maybe I'll invite Michi along. If you don't get your sorry ass down there and get loaded with the rest of us. C'mon, li'l bitch.. you got it in ya."

"I know. I know I have to ignore it. I'll have to at school I just I don't could use another night, I guess? I just couldn't stay home I think my parents wanted me to play boardgames or something with them tonight."

The brunette rolled over facing more towards Hunter, giving her a not too hard kick in the leg when she rolled over for poking at her. "I know that too. I know all of it Hunt. I broke up with her, she can do what she wants and people are going to talk about.. But I still love her. I didn't want to set her loose. I still don't I want her back."

"Whatever it works." Sera sulked a bit, grabbing the bottle back from Hunter and taking a big gulp of her own, before flopping back down on the bed. Giving Hunter another kick in the leg when she joking about fucking Jenny again. She waited a few minutes before she answered though, turning over first to look at Hunter.

"You're not going to give up are you? If you give me time to get ready I guess I'll think about making an appearance."
