Jolie
The music is so loud it’s giving me a headache.
Pulsing and mixing with the flashing lights and making me grumpier
than I already am.
Mostly because I don’t want to be out.
I want to be in bed, cuddled in my velvet jammies, drinking the frothy
hot chocolate from the special mix I treat myself to during this time of year.
In fact, I bought myself an extra box knowing this month was coming.

December.
Hellish.
Busy.
Full to the brim with Christmas.
Yes, I say that in my head like it’s a four-letter word.
Smothering a sigh, I rub my temple, fighting the headache brewing
there, knowing I’m just tired and cranky because I worked all day. Again.
Knowing that I’m extra tired after busting my ass for weeks on end, pulling
eighty-hour weeks because everyone waits until the last minute to get ready
for the holidays.
And as a hairstylist, that means the last month has been filled with cuts
and freshening up colors and doing styles for so many holiday parties. Add
in listening to all the drama that everyone inevitably fills my ears with,
decorating my own place, and doing my own shopping, and…I do not want
to be here right now.
I want velvet jammies and hot cocoa and to sleep for a hundred years.
But Toby wanted to try this new club. And so did Colleen.
And when my boyfriend and best friend want something, I’m overruled.
Hence, the reason my ass is currently parked on a barstool, club music
assaulting my ears and the flashing lights from the dance floor making my
eyes hurt.
“And then,” Colleen says, her gorgeous lips curved in a smile, “I went
to my boss and…”
She leans closer to Toby, finishing a story I can’t hear over the din—or
maybe I can’t hear it because I’m the aforementioned tired and not listening
all that well.
Either way, she stops talking and Toby bursts out laughing, and I slug
back the remnants of my drink.
“Be right back,” I tell them, hopping off my stool and snagging my
purse.
“You good, babe?” Colleen asks.
“Bathroom,” I shout over the sound of the music before taking off for
the bathroom.
Bracing myself, I weave my way through the throng of bodies, pushing
beyond the crush and making it to the hallway. Thankfully, it’s quieter in
the hall, and I lean back against the wall and take a breath, trying to
summon the fun Jolie.
Unfortunately, I think she’s gone south for the winter.
Or maybe she’s gone forever.
Run out of town by bills and adult responsibilities and just feeling tired,
all the freaking time.
Sighing, I push off the wall, start to head to the bathroom. If I’m out—
and not in my comfy jammies—I should make the best of it. Get another
drink, take some silly pictures with Colleen and Toby. Maybe make a
TikTok and—
I pat my pockets.
