Plum's head pounded as he woke up in a room he didn't recognize. He sat up too fast, and it felt like he was going to die or something.
Right. Party. Cocaine. Alcohol.
No more coke. That was way too much.
He glanced around, and found a glass of water, a bottle of Ibuprofen, and a note.
"Sorry Jarred just left you to come down on your own. Your phone and clothes are in the bathroom, and I left you a spare set. They may not fit well, given how tall you are, but they're clean. I'll make you breakfast to help with the hangover, just come down to the kitchen. -Elijah."
Well, at least someone in this place was thoughtful. He took the painkillers and went into the bathroom. The clothes left for him were definitely too small. The sweatpants went barely past his knees, and the shirt definitely wouldn't fit over his shoulders. Fuck. Would an Uber accept him as a passenger without a shirt.
He checked his phone. 11:37 am. Twelve missed calls from Ollie, ranging back from 8:16 am. One missed call from Spencer at exactly 10:00.
Ollie picked up his phone on the first ring, like always. "Plum! Dude! Bruh! You alright? I was worried sick!"
Plum had to hold the phone a few inches away to avoid his head splitting open from the volume. "Yeah, I'm fine. Hungover as hell, but fine."
"Did you crash at the party?"
"Yeah." He glanced around. "God, this dude is loaded. I swear this bathroom costs more than my parent's house. They even have a separate shower and bathtub, and their tub is one of those jacuzzi ones."
"Jesus. Anything worth stealing?" Ollie's laugh indicated that it was a joke. Probably.
"Ah, yes, I'm totally going to steal their toilet." Plum let out a breath of a laugh. "Holy shit, dude, last night was intense. I got laid... kinda."
"Kinda?"
"Yeah. Jarred was a real dick of a dom, but I was super turned on, you know?"
"Now you understand why I like it when you're like this?" Ollie paused for a moment. "Spencer's glad you're okay."
"Good. But yeah, like, he made me suck his cock, which was real nice until I kinda threw up on him."
"Big oof."
"But yeah, he got me into the shower and jerked off all over my face. It was honestly the hottest thing I've ever had done to me." If he wasn't so fucking hungover, he'd honestly consider jerking off right then and there. He'd already gotten himself off last night, when he was still kneeling in the shower after Jarred left, but damn, that was enough jack off fodder for weeks. "He was cute too. Had kind of a baby face, but like, it's kinda hot whenever someone like that is secretly a dom, you know?"
"Like Spence?"
"Yeah, yeah." Plum thought about it. "Actually, he kind of looks like Spencer but white."
"Man, imagining a non-asian Spence is kind of cursed." Ollie laughed. "Need me to call you an Uber?"
"Nah, I'll figure something out in a bit. Dude's boyfriend or something said he'd make me breakfast."
"Alright. I'm so glad you're okay. I was worried, you know?"
"You always are, you fucking worrywart." Plum hoped that his gentle tone would come across right over the phone. "Love you."
"Love you too! Spence says he loves you as well!"
He got up and stretched. "Love you too, man. I'm gonna let you guys go, so I'll see you in a bit."
"Text me when you're on your way home, okay?"
"Will do. Love you."
"Love you too! Be safe!"
"You bet." Plum hung up, because he knew if he didn't, Ollie would get caught in a loop.
As soon as he put his phone in his pocket, the ruger to vomit finally overtook him. However, as he leaned over the toilet, nothing came out except for a but of water.
He needed to eat. He'd been hungover before, and as much as the thought of McDonald's made him want to vomit more, he knew that food would make things marginally better.
As soon as he was feeling steadier, he got up and left the bathroom, clothes in hand. Man, their hallway was fancy too. They could afford to have just random end tables with empty vases that probably cost more than all the dental work Plum had to have done.
He stumbled upon a large framed picture. A family portrait. Jarred's mom looked familiar. An actress? No, her smile was too fake, her pantsuit too unfashionable. Politician of some kind? Her blonde hair was styled like every politician lady in their forties or fifties. His dad looked like the kind of old money guy who just played golf all the time, the kind of guy who was maybe athletic in high school but had ruined that body long ago with beer.
Jarred stood between the two, taller than both and dressed in an incredibly handsome suit. His hair was much shorter than its normal shoulder length curls in this picture, swooping up at the top like every generic white fuckboy. He had no smile on his face, no expression in his eyes except for a deep, deep loneliness.
And good God, his nose was upturned. He hadn't noticed it in person, probably because he had to look down to match eyes with him, but damn. Jarred was, like, the living embodiment of snootiness.
"Oh, good, you're awake!"
Plum looked over and saw a friendly looking guy walking towards him. The dude actually had similar hair to Jarred's portrait, but dealer and thicker. He looked short to Plum, but he was probably about average height compared to normal people. "You're Elijah, right?"
"Sure am. Let me guess, the shirt was too small?" His brown eyes were all nice and warm.
"Yeah, it was." Plum shrugged. "Most are, don't worry about it."
"You're a while lot taller than I thought you were." God, Elijah's smile was nice. "How tall are you?"
"Six foot nine." Most people asked that question, and damn did he love to brag about it.
"Holy shit, dude." Elijah chuckled. "You want breakfast? I make some mean hangover eggs."
"Sounds fucking great."
"Awesome." Elijah turned on his heel and started walking down the hall. Damn, he had a nice ass. And his arms were nice and muscled. God damn, how did an asshole like Jarred get a catch like this? "Sorry about Jarred leaving you all alone last night. He gets real wigged out about bodily fluids in general, which I know isn't an excuse, but, well, you know."
