That 'A' romance

Chapter 8

<Andrew's POV>

Today Logan offered me to take off some steam, and relax, spending the weekend with him. I didn't need to be said twice, thus it was hard week, I need some time off before I kill my secretary and her hoe level flirting attempts, if I could find somebody who does better job than her, I would fire her in a second.

We are at some home party. Apparently Logan loves to drink his loneliness with alcohol and random nightstands. To be honest, I don't even know why he became so indifferent, but I suppose it has something to do with his "perfect" ex-girlfriend. He dated some girl for 3 years, it was his longest commitment, I never got to meet her though, because I left one month before he met her, and while those 3 years I was abroad I never managed to get any free time to fly back and meet her. At first year he couldn't stop talking about how amazing she is, he showed me photos of her, when we were meeting in skype, but I was so overwhelmed with my studies and all, that I never cached what her name was, all I know it started with S, no L? E? ok, I have no idea..., but In the second year we talked through skype less, due not so much time, and because of that he promised me to not talk as much about her so we can actually manage to catch up. And then In the 3rd year he once called me at 2am in the morning, I never heard him cry before that night, he was drunk and just cried, I just stayed on a call with him until he fell asleep, after that, even though he never told me the reason, but he became different, I realized that, when I finished my Uni; I returned home and I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw him with too half naked girls smiling at me, it was only then when I realized that he broke up that same day he called me crying and I just automatically assumed he was cheated on, thus being the reason he tries to forget the girl, but in all reality I still don't know what happened.

Anyways... he didn't find anything interesting in this party except getting drunk, and I don't like it as well, so we are on our way to some random club he really wanted to visit for odd reason, I mean whatever floats his boat, I don't care, as long as my homie is happy.

We arrived at quite an expensive looking club, and even though it was already 1am, it was loaded with people and the music was pleasing my eardrums, finally some place, where DJ has taste. We sat in a corner near some stairs, that Logan wanted to climb, but was stopped by security, after that he became somehow silent... weird... ok... whatever, probably just some drunk mans' state.

After some time I got tired of looking at Logan so devastated and we were on our way to leave the club. Some girl bumped into me, but ran away... what is with people being strange today?... Yaay... great... I lost him, where the hell is he now?.. when I finally spotted him over tons of people, I saw that he looks at somewhere, but I didn't see what it was and when I finally got to him and grabbed him by wrist, he tried to say something, but in his state it was something in gibberish. When I looked at his eyes with dilated pupils, I noticed, that he looked as if he was breaking inside... his eyes became like buckets filled with water, trying not to spill it. With that I took him outside of there and adjusting him in my car, I closed the door and took a smoke.

It was my first cigarette in 2 years, and I felt angry at myself, but I can't cope with my emotions anymore. It is all too much –sister, company, now my best friend is in this drunken state almost crying for the reason I don't even know!

I looked around me and saw some people in the far end of the parking lot, at first I didn't find anything strange about it, but that was before I saw man looking with hungry eyes at 2 girls, he was getting closer to one and I tensed, but I felt relieved when I heard that the woman chuckle, after what she sat in the car and drove off leaving that man all by himself. Probably he got rejected lmao. But that lady... "What the hell?" I yelled, because Logan hit the window with his head and the sound startled me from my thoughts.
