"What?!" I exclaimed loud.

Kurt laughs. "If your lips were sealed last night, you couldn't told him the truth."

I hit him. "You let Nick drive me back to the hotel last night?! Talk about being best friends."

"Savannah I could see the jealousy in his eyes and I wouldn't want him to hit me."

I sigh.

"And you were the one who told him I was gay." He laughs.

"Oh shut up." I spit.

"I guess our drama last night didn't pay off. I was even making out with you which was super gross." He blurted.

I sigh heavily. "Super gross? Wow. You even said I got you horny."

He rolled his eyes at me.

"I was so drunk last night that I couldn't remember a thing. I didn't even know it was Nick who drove me here. Ugh! I hate you!" I raged.

Kurt hugs me. "As much as you want to vent your anger at me, let's pack up our stuff then grab our breakfast."

"My head is killing me." I threw myself back to the bed.

"Get up! Our flight's in two hours."

"Ughhhh why did you have to pick such an early flight!" I complained.

"Savannah it's already five in the afternoon. Get the fuck up and shower."

The minute we got to the airport and sat down inside the plane, I stared right outside my window while Kurt was busy taking a piss. As soon as the plane was moving, Kurt came back to the seat beside me. He held my knee.

"Hey, remember that bitch at the pub last night?" Kurt asked.

I nod.

"But I really don't want to know more about her. She's seriously gonna make my hungover worst." I tell him as I was massaging my temples.

"Her name's Dakota." Kurt snapped.

I moved my head to him.

"I hate you." I spit.

He grins. "Baby cakes you can't hate me."

I playfully hit his shoulder. "I don't wanna know anything about her. I hate her. Now get over it and shut up."

He laughs. "Cheer up baby cakes. It's gonna be a long flight back to New York."

I rolled my eyes at him. "Oh whatever."

Two weeks passed after that wedding in Las Vegas, I was already busy hunting down other companies for my internship. A year to go and I'm gonna graduate soon. I didn't apply for my internship in the Devaloines Group because I know I couldn't qualify to their high standards. I was scared to try something as big as Devaloines Group for my internship. I'll apply to their company when I'm ready.
