Logan

Twenty-one

«So I'll see you tomorrow?» he asked her when they arrived to the parking of her apartment.
«Sure.» she said.
They were walking to the apartment and as they got to the main door, they stopped. «What are you doing tonight?»
«I'm not sure, I'll probably go out with my girls in a disco or whatever.» she replied. «I'll text you as I know, if you want to "casually" meet me there»
«Okay, thank you» he said.
They had an awkward moment of silence and then Logan hugged her. "We will have to tell them all, one day, you know?" she thought, hoping for him to hear her somehow. She felt so bad only thinking of all the lies she told to her friends and she knew she would've said many others.
But he couldn't read her mind, so he stood back, said bye and left.

She had to think of something to say to not be suspected on why not drinking lately when they all went to clubs. She always used the excuse of "I'm tired, it's a miracle if I'm coming, I'm not even touching alcohol." but now it was too old.
"Can I pretend with alcohol free drinks?" she wondered.
That night she wore a long dark green dress, soft on her curves and collected right under her breast, so her minuscule belly wasn't showing at all. She texted Logan with the name of the place and he said he would've came with some of his friends.
She got out of her room and blushed when her friends pointed out how good she looked.
They left and arrived at the club. She instantly went to the bar and ordered an an-alcoholic drink without being heard from the other girls. "I just have to act a little crazy." she told herself.
She went near to her friends to make sure they saw her drinking and danced with them for a while, until she got tired and sat to the bar, waiting for Logan.
It was the first time she smiled when she heard that usual voice behind her. He said: «Can we just point out how I never bought you a drink?»
