Jades pov:
I made my way to the bathrooms, trying to get away from the loud crowds, following my best friend trying not to trip over others skates
"Why'd we come here again? They play shit music and the people here scare me."
My friend rolls her eyes
"Because youuu need to get out of your funk. Stop moping about that asshole and get out once and a while"
"He wasn't an asshole-" I didn't even believe myself.
"Nope nope nope not talking about that tonight, go pee or whatever I'm gonna go get us waters"
She leaves the bathroom as I stare myself in the bathroom mirror fixing my outfit and taking a deep breath before heading back out.
I roll myself towards the snack bar and Christine is no where in sight.
"Goddamnit-" I turn around in a hurry, and get hit with a splash of water
I start to fall back as I lose my balance but I'm held up by a hand under my arm
"I am so so sorry are you okay?" I can barely hear the soft apologetic voice over the loud music and I try not to cry
I nod as I pull my arm away and try to make my way away from him as I feel myself starting to cry.
The music too loud, too many people, I couldn't find my friend, my head was pounding, my shirt was wet
Oh god I'm gonna cry no no no- fuck I wanna go home
I feel myself get lost for a moment but the hand on my arm is back again and I snap back to reality when I hear the voice of the guy I ran into once again
"Hey are you okay?" I look him up and down and pull my arm away again, starting to cry "hey I'm sorry I didn't mean to upset you.." he steps away giving me space
I head back into the bathroom, not knowing where else to go.
I stand in the bathroom with my back against the wall trying to catch my breath as a hand holding the hoodie he was wearing snakes it's way into the room
"At least wear this this so you're not in a wet shirt-"
I utter a small thank you as I take his hoodie
I take off my wet tshirt and slide it over myself, it nearly hangs below my knees but it was soft and comforting.
I fix my hair in the hood and make my way back out and there the stranger was sitting outside the bathroom
"Jesus man you stalking me?" I try to joke but I sound so cold and harsh from the crying
"You were upset- I didn't wanna leave you alone upset by something I caused" he looks me up anx down and a faint blush can be seen across his face.
"I'm fine.. thank you- and.. thank you for the dry shirt- I'll give it back to you before I leave which" I look around "will probably be soon"
"What's your name?"
I try to go with a lie, not wanting to give a stranger my name, being in his shirt was enough. But I didn't completely lie- middle name is still my name.
"Rose."
"You have a beautiful name" I can't help but blush at the compliment "are you here alone rose?"
