⚠️ drinking reference ⚠️
a few of my friends had found me at this point. it was around 8:30.
the insides have settled down and reeked less of sweat and alcohol.
I kept George close to my side.
we decided to go back outside since we had no point of being in.
we were out on the feild when Nick pulled a glass bottle.
oh no.
my one weakness.
Georges eyes widened a bit.
the teenage boys passed the bottle around the circle.
it hit George but he quickly passed it on to me with worry in his eyes.
just a sip. it'll be fine.
George had a slight frown on his face, but wasn't to pressed.
"I'm sorry."
I rested my hand on his knee.
all he could do was the same.
this makes him uncomfortable.
I need to stop.
after a few minutes or so of talking, George excused himself to the restroom.
the boys pressed me to drink.
"listen I really shouldn't.. I need to drive George home and myself as well.."
the negotiating didn't work.
George had returned and half the bottle was gone.
he looked at me suspiciously.
all I could do was smile and shake it off.
it was 9:03 and we were back inside for the slow dance.
I took George by the hand and brought him to the dance floor.
he was nervous.
"don't worry about what others think Georgiee"
my speech was slightly slurred.
"Dream.."
I looked down at him as we swayed.
"be honest with me.. are you- drunk?"
that's when it hit me.
this needs to stop.
if I want to keep this trust and bond with George everything.
needs to stop.
but it didn't.
more sneaking off and drinking occured on the feild.
it was all a blur.
next thing I know, I'm out cold.
I wake up in pitch black.
where am I?
why am I so dizzy?
who's next to me?
why is their voice so funny?
"god damn it Dream.."
he spoke as he lifted me over his shoulder.
what did I do?
"this was supposed to be the night. the one night I had fun with my.. boyfriend. the one night I was the one ready to make the move."
he looked at me with tears in his eyes.
wait don't cry.
did I make him cry?
"I don't even care about that.. all I care is that you're safe."
"but one thing I do care about.. is the fact you lied to me.."
what did I say?
we walked as he scolded me for some reason.
after about 20 minutes, I was passed out cold on a soft mattress.
I'm sorry.
