The following is a complete work of fiction. In what could be many entries in the adventures of Alisha, an 18 year old girl entering her senior year of high school, and Vicky, a symbiote that has the capacity to overtake and control Alisha's body.
Feedback is welcomed and encouraged, and I will give consideration to user suggestions on where future entries could go.
Day Six: Saturday
Alisha slowly opened her heavy eyes, a dull throbbing still in the back of her head. She partially sat herself up from where she had slept on the ground, a slightly lingering dizziness in her head. She felt better than when she woke up hungover two days prior; this time it didn't feel nearly as bad.
As her vision came into better focus, she looked around. Rachel was sprawled out on one of the couches snoring lightly, tangled up in a mess of blankets. Toni was slumped on the ground beside where Alisha had been sleeping, sleeping soundly and peacefully on the floor. On the other couch where Jackie had been placed the night before was just a mess of a few blankets.
"Jackie must be up already,"
thought Alisha.
Alisha stood herself up, and slowly made her way to the downstairs washroom. Once she was finished, she made her way to the kitchen in Rachel's house, and found Jackie sitting at the table, eating a bowl of cereal.
"Good morning," Alisha said as she sat down across from Jackie.
"Try afternoon," muttered Jackie through a mouthful of cereal.
Alisha was startled by Jackie's mention of afternoon, and looked at one of the clocks in the kitchen; 12:07pm.
"Well, I guess we really crashed hard," said Alisha, pouring herself a bowl.
Jackie stopped eating, and looked up at Alisha. "Do you remember what happened last night?"
"What do you mean?" Alisha asked.
"Like, what exactly happened? And how did we get back here? Last thing I remember we had those drinks in the kitchen, and then everything gets hazy after that."
"I... I don't know," lied Alisha. "I remember the drinks we had, we all went to see who else was there... and... I woke up here."
"We should go wake up the others. Maybe one of them remembers."
Jackie got up and started walking to the two sleeping girls. Not wanting to miss anything, especially if it implicated her, Alisha followed.
"This better have worked, Vicky."
The two girls entered the room, and Jackie first walked over to Rachel.
"Rachel," said Jackie softly. "Wake up."
Rachel stirred, but didn't wake up.
"It doesn't look like she's going to wake up on her own," said Jackie, looking down at Rachel.
Jackie reached out and gently slapped her on her cheeks. Rachel stirred more, and her eyes slowly opened.
"H... hi..." slurred Rachel as she awoke. "What... what happened?"
"We went to that party, remember?" said Jackie, now turning her attention to Toni.
"Yea..." said a groggy Rachel. "I think I remember."
"How much do you remember?" asked Alisha. "Me and Jackie are both hazy on a lot of what happened."
Jackie leaned over beside Toni, and tried to wake her up the same way she did to Rachel, but she didn't budge.
"She's really out," said Jackie. "Alisha, can you get me some water?"
"Sure," said Alisha, grabbing the same cup she used to get Toni water that night.
As Alisha walked to the downstairs washroom to fill the cup, she could hear Rachel answer Jackie's question.
"I... I remember us getting there. We wandered... and had some sodas... I... I saw Alisha in the kitchen... with Samantha? She was having a drink... then I went to get you guys... we drank... two drinks?"
Alisha reentered the room with the glass of water as Rachel was still answering.
"After that..." continued Rachel. "I... I don't remember. I don't remember anything after that."
Jackie took the glass of water from Alisha, and slowly poured some onto Toni's forehead, and gently slapped her cheek again. Toni began to stir, and her eyes barely opened.
"Toni," said Jackie, gently. "It's time to wake up."
Toni's eyes slowly opened, and she looked around the room.
"Where am I?" she asked, her voice shaky.
"My basement," said Rachel. "We all slept over here."
"Why did you just pour water on me?"
"You weren't waking up, and I was concerned," Jackie said.
"Oh... ok..." said Toni, still groggy from waking up.
"Do you remember anything from last night?" asked Jackie. "None of us can remember how we got home from the party."
"Party?" asked Toni
"Yea," said Rachel. "We all left to walk to the big party last night. None of us seems to remember much after we each had two drinks."
Alisha just stood off to the side, feeling guilt overwhelm her, doing her best to not make eye contact with Toni.
"I think I remember us walking somewhere..." said Toni. "But I can't remember anything right now. I'm sorry."
"It's okay," said Jackie. "Let's get you up and get you something to eat; maybe we'll figure out what happened when we're more awake."
Toni went to stand up, but started feeling an excruciating pain as she tried to stand, and let out a cry.
"Are you alright?" asked a concerned Rachel.
"Yes, I think so," said Toni. "Something just doesn't feel right. Can you help me to the washroom?"
Rachel helped Toni to the downstairs washroom. Once Toni was alone inside, she went to lower her pants to use the toilet. As she lowered her pants and panties, she was shocked to see her panties discolored by blood.
"Umm, Rachel!" said Toni.
"Yes, I'm here," Rachel said from the other side of the door.
"I think I'm going to need you to bring me my bag I brought along."
"Is everything ok in there?" asked Rachel.
"No..." said Toni. "I think maybe my period started early. Like, super early."
Rachel left to grab Toni's bag, and returned to the washroom door. "Here, I have your bag!"
Toni shuffled herself to the locked door, and opened it just enough to have her bag handed to her. Once the door was back closed, she did her best to clean herself up. She redressed into the clean set of clothes she had packed, and also borrowed one of Rachel's tampons. She packed her dirty clothes carefully into her bag, and left the washroom, still walking slowly.
"What happened?" Jackie asked.
"My period," said Toni. "It started early. Like super early!"
"Oh? Like how early?"
"Like ten days!" said Toni. "I've never had this happen before."
"Well, at least it didn't happen at school or something," said Rachel.
"Yea... I just feel so sore, though. I've never been this sore from my period before."
The three girls all walked out to the kitchen, but Alisha stayed back in the room they slept in. Grabbing her phone, she sent a text to her mom to come pick her up, and went to join her friends.
"See,"
