I feel really miserable and im so unsure of what to do.
My parents were really happy yesturday, then they went to a christmas party, came home and now have started fighting.. It feels like a long while back when they had fought alot and were well i thought.. were really close to a divorce. I havent felt like this since then, and to top everything off last week my friend told me she needed to sleep over today because her parents weren't going to be home, now we had all forgotten about this until today when my friend calls me to remind me.. and now really isn't the time to go and remind my parents, I dont know what to do.. I cant have her spend the night when things are like this.. im just so scared. They arent fighting in front of me or anything but.. its just scaring me so much.. and my friend that i can talk to about anything her dad is in the hospital and so i cant talk to her about it right now and i just feel horrible and scared and if my friend has to spend the night im just might break down, because I cant tell her what is going on and I'd have to act fake because, its very hard to explain I guess she is a good friend, but she is not the kind of friend that you can just spill your guts too.. Ugghh...

Oh, I'm so sorry.

I hate it when my parents fight.


But you have to understand, its part of a healthy relationship. People, even though they love each other, sometimes disagree.

(now if one of them is abusing the other, which you didn't mention, that whole thing goes out the window)

no that would never happen.. i understand that but.. its pretty bad.... it hasn't been this awful in a looong time.. and i just dont know what to do about my friend, it is going to be so uncomfortable having her over..

it'll be fine.

Everyone's parents fight. She'll understand.

I don't really have any first-hand experiance with this, but try talking to your parents. It may not sound like the best thing to do, but when you talk to your parents, they know that you can hear them and that you're worried. Like Sparx said, even those who love each other fight sometimes. Prayers and Pixie Dust coming your way.
