I got really drunk, thinking it will help me not to think about much stuff, but it in fact started hitting me then.
Anxiety that was hitting me whole day today started being really overwhelming as my breathing hitched up. I could barely breath so I pushed through crowd of people, accidentally spilling a drink on guy.
"Uh, sorry, really."
"No, no. It's okay."
He said and I ran out the club.
I slammed my back against the wall, heavily breathing. I tried doing the method 4-7-8 but it didn't work. My hands were shaking, as anxious feeling didn't leave my body.

(A/N method 4-7-8 is basically when you breath in for 4 seconds, hold it in for 7 and then breath out for 8 seconds, of course counting at your own speed. it helps me sometimes, but sometimes i can't even make my mind straight to even think about counting numbers, especially if i'm having anxiety attack, but you can try it out definitely when you are nervous/anxious, it helps. even therapist recommend that method.)

"Are you alright?"
I looked up to see the guy I spilled the drink on.
"I, uh, yeah."
"Are you sure? You don't really look like you're okay."
It didn't take me a second to break down. He pulled me in hug.
Dude why I always end up 'trusting' strangers?
"You wanna talk?"
"I-I don't even know you."
"Well I guess the conversations with strangers are the best, cause they don't know you and can't really judge you. I don't judge."
"I- uh, anxiety attack. I, uh, broke up with my boyfriend and my friends took me out to distract me. And I thought vodka will distract me, but it just hit me more cause I've been hiding my feelings inside."
"Oh. Why'd you guys break up?"
"Well, I, uh, we, well some bad shit happened that he says 'he caused' and that it's his fault I 'got broken' and he didn't wanted to break me more so he thought breaking up with me is going to help. But it's only worse."
"Well he's obviously missing something."
"What do you mean?"
"Well, I mean, you are really pretty, so I don't know why'd he leave someone like you. I bet you're a good person, I mean, I already know you are since you're opening up to stranger. Trust issues, I guess?"
"You don't gotta read me like book, okay?"
I said chuckling with him.
"What's your name?"
"What's yours?"
I said giggling, yeah, now this is what vodka also does.
"I'm a stranger."
He said giggling with me.
"Well, I guess I'm stranger too."
I said and he nodded.
"Well, stranger, do you want to give me your number? Or Snap?"
"Meh, it was not that smooth."
He gasped putting his hand over his chest acting hurt as I laughed.
"So, is that a no or a yes?"
"I don't know, what you think?"
He smirked gettting his phone out of his pocket.
He handed me phone and I typed in the number.
"There she is!"
"Bitch the fuck are you doing out here?"
"Uh, nothing."
"C'mon, you get d another time, we are going home now."
A stranger boy started laughing and I mentally slapped myself.
"Well, stranger boy, sorry for spilling you drink. But I gotta go now."
"You can buy me one next time."
He said and I laughed.
"Okay, that was lowkey smooth."
"Might do it on Monday?"
He said smirking again.
"We'll see about that stranger. bye."
I said waving and walking away, as he yelled 'bye' back.
We sat in cars driving to our homes.
Lynn, Larri, John and Cooper were staying with me, Jack picked up Mia and everyone else went their homes.

I passed away half way to home so someone must've got me in cause I don't remember walking to the room, nor I remember much things from last night.
I grabbed my phone from nightstand. 10:42 am. Great.
I got a message from unknown number.

Xx :
Heyy pretty, what's up?

Who the fuck is this?

You :
Who's this?

Xx :
Stranger

That's when it klicked in my head, I gave a guy my number last night. I think so.

You :
Ooh, hi stranger

Stranger🧍🏼‍♂️:
So, Monday you said?

You :
You ain't giving up huh?

Stranger🧍🏼‍♂️ :
I guess you could say so

You :
Smh

We texted for a bit more, he was being pretty flirty whole time. I guess I probably gave him the vibe last night, but I don't really remember how he looked like.
I'm still obviously so much in love with Jaden, love doesn't fade away just like that, but a little of distraction won't be that bad, right?

×Time skip to Monday

Today I'm going out with Michael. Yeah, that's the name of stranger guy.
In past few days Addison came over and we talked about whole situation and stuff, and the other day we spent the whole day out together to celebrate her birthday, since I wasn't planning on going on her real birthday, I couldn't face Jaden.
I'm making myself hate him, or just stop being stupidly in love with him, but it's hard. Even that only a week passed by.
My parents were here, they don't want to leave me alone which really annoys me. I didn't tell anybody what really happened when we were 'kidnapped'. I am still really ashamed of it and just thinking about it makes my body shiver and hurt in pain.

I got on ripped baggy jeans and tank top.
"I mean you look hella fine in that, but gurl it's a date!"
"So what? Am I supposed to wear dress for first date? I am not trying to win him!"
"Yeah, dress! Exactly that!"
Larri yelled and Lynn nodded, agreeing with him.
"No, I'ma wear this!"

"Heyy." Michael said embracing me into hug.
"Hey, what's up?"
"You look amazing in that dress."
He said as I looked down at my body. Yeah, you heard it right. Larri and Lynn got me to wear this summery yellowish dress, not too tight, not too short.
"Well, thank you."
Now that I look at him, he is actually pretty attractive, I can't lie. Light skin, hair was pretty cute. Not too short, but still making him look even more attractive.
We went in some café near the place we met. We talked a lot, it was not awkward at all, honestly. I thought it'd be in awkward silence but he always started different conversations, which made me feel more comfortable and we got to know each other.
"Well, when can I take you out again?"
"Hmm, I don't know, we'll see."
We said our bye's and he went to his car while Cooper picked me up. He offered to drive me back home, but I didn't want to. He already paid the dinner and stuff, he doesn't need to drive me home.
"Hey Coop." I said buckling my seat belt.
"Hey, how was it?"
"Umm, it was good. Pretty good."
"Well that's great."
"Yeah, I guess so."
He drove me back home in Malibu and Larri and Lynn were already there, along with John and Mia, waiting for me to come home from 'FiRsT dAtE'.
"There is my bitch, how was it?!"
Lynn yelled as I walked in living room, Cooper behind me.
"It was good, better than I expected."
I told them everything that happened. They were all hyped up about it, I guess they were trying to make me feel better for trying to move on from Jaden.

°°°°°°°°°°

Umm, anyway, she got a new bitch. 😫✋🏻
ANYWAYS GUYSS I'M STARTING A NEW BOOK!! I published first chapter, it's called 'Meet me in the woods' about Jaden Hossler so go hype it up besties!! :**
