I did some research online and apparently there isn't a way to get rid of them. You could try to cover it up with makeup. Hopefully it will go away before you have to go to your moms house. I copy and pasted what I found, so hopefully this will help you out some. Next time tell your boyfriend to be more careful! I hope this helps and good luck! <3 Dana

You probably don't want to hear this, but... there is no "fast way" to get rid of a hickey. In fact, there is no way to get rid of one other than by being patient - it just needs some time to heal. You can, however, try a few tricks to make it fade faster:

-Apply a cold flannel to the area immediately (this only works if you do it RIGHT AFTER you get the hickey). Keep the compress on 20 minutes, off 20 minutes. The cold will constrict blood vessels and help keep the bruise from spreading.

-If the hickey lasts for more than 48 hours, apply a wet, warm washcloth to it - this can reduce swelling.

-Be creative with fashion to hide your hickey! Wear turtlenecks, scarves, or high shirt collars. Disguise the hickey for a few days until it becomes less noticeable.

-Try to be prepared in case your parents notice the hickey - because no matter how hard you try to hide that mark, they might still see it.

If your mum is pretty cool, or you suspect she may have had a few hickeys herself back in her teenage years (you know, when the dinosaurs roamed the Earth), you could take a chance and ask her about your hickey before she asks you. She might get angry, or she might laugh.

But she'll probably also be impressed that you came to her and didn't try to hide it. You can point out that you're not keeping secrets from her, and you want her to be involved in your life. You can say that if you know she can talk with you about these things, instead of her yelling about this stuff, you'll always want to go to her with your questions about boys.

And reassure her that now you know hickeys can ruin your poor capillaries and make them weak and susceptible to bursting, you will never get another one!

This is the website I copy and pasted this from.
