 (I wrote this in 2021 as a freshman in high school and then privated it but honestly it didn't deserve that)

I wish that I had the courage to tell him how I feel but here I stand getting ready for a party that I don't even want to attend. I hate parties but since he is the one hosting it I have to go. I head downstairs. I have just some comfortable clothes on. " Hey, mom I'm heading out." " Are you sure you want to go Y/n? You don't Strike me as the social type." "Mom I'll be fine don't worry I won't be gone long besides I'm almost eighteen." She sighs and smiles at me. "Ok have fun." I head out hoping to get there before most arrive.

When I get close I see people already in the house and on the lawn. I head towards the door hoping to recognize someone. I walk through the door and see Josuke talking to a girl that he has been sleeping with for a while. I wish that I could just talk to him. I stand against the wall waiting for Josuke to get done talking with the girl but, As I watch I see him take her hand and lead her away. Great the only reason I came to this party and he just went off with some girl. I space out hoping to pass the time faster.

I watch as people come in and out of the door getting progressively drunker through the night. I hear something break and look around to see two men fighting over something? Why can't they take it outside? I hear one of them yell and push the other. One of them looks to be bleeding. Why is no one doing anything? The fight is getting closer to me. "can you guys take it outside?" They ignore me and continue.

"Hey, assholes take it outside!" They split apart immediately and apologize and head outside. "Y/n, hey." "Hey, Okuyasu." "Josuke didn't think that you would come?" I want to talk somewhere else. "Hey, can we talk somewhere else please?" He nods and leads me upstairs which is blocked off. "So what is it Y/n?" "Nothing just I'm not really a party person." "Oh well feel free to stay up here forever how long you need." I thank him for helping me and he heads off to enjoy the party. I sit at the top of the stairs and watch.

I'm about ready to head home when I hear moans come from Josuke's room. I wish that I could have talked to him before leaving. I rush down the stairs as the moans get louder. I wish that I had never heard that in the first place. That's not the Josuke from the beginning of high school. I run into Okuyasu on the way out. He asks me if I want someone to walk me home. I decline feeling like I've had enough social interaction for the night. As I walk home I feel a slight breeze it feels nice.
