But... She is really incomprehensible. On the one hand she could leave me on seen for absolutely no reason and on the other hand she worries about me when I don't answer her for a night. Why is she so worried? I don't owe her anything, two days ago we barely knew each other. How on earth can she make me feel guilty for not telling her I was out tonight?I could wait until tomorrow and stall her for a while before giving her an answer. Maybe she would understand that she can play with my nerves like that. However, she was worried about me, which is cute, so it wouldn't be nice of me. She has such an impact on me and I haven't even known her for a week... Maybe I could blame it on the alcohol right now, I'm usually too emotional when I'm drunk.

"hey- excuse me, we're here". I take a few seconds to realize I'm still in the uber and the driver tells me we've arrived at the destination I told him. I snap out of my trance, pick up my phone and thank him. I go straight to bed because I can't even walk without tripping, I'm still going to answer her though.

hiii strangerr

Omg calm down

Can I go out at night without you knowing? I'm an adult yk

I can do whatever the fuck I want

But thanks for the concern tho

THATS CUTEE

I love talking to you



I hear a beeping sound from my bedside table. What- I slowly open my eyes to face the sun coming from outside the window. My head hurts, still wearing my clothes from yesterday. I close my eyes for a moment, not to fall asleep again, just to rest my eyes a little. 5 minutes later I finally get up and change into some grey comfy pants and a red zip-up sweater. I make myself a cup of coffee and quickly eat a bowl of cereal with milk.My classes start in two hours, so hopefully I'll have time to get less of a headache. I turn on the TV and scroll through the channels, eventually settling on Jimmy Fallon.

I don't remember much about last night except than that we met up at the club, spent a few hours there, and got a ride home in an uber. I'm not sure my memories will come back anytime soon, so I'm trying to think of something else until they eventually do. I catch up on the show a while until I go into my room to get ready.


The day passes and nothing important happens. I didn't get to see y/f/n today because we didn't have class together, so I guess we'll see each other another day. My memories of last night are still a little fuzzy but I remember most things now. I remember telling y/f/n to go home because it was late, dropping her off at her house first and then at mine. I remember the driver calling me to tell me we were there... Still, I don't remember why I didn't hear him call me before, but that's not a big deal so I'll let it go for now.

I feel myself getting hungry so I decide to make something for dinner. I decide to make Japanese noodles with dumplings. I eat in silence, getting lost in my thoughts when I tilt something. I remember now! I didn't hear the driver call me at first because I was thinking about the text N had sent me. Damn it, I haven't checked my phone all day...

I click on the conversation to see some messages I sent last night. I read them, I obviously didn't remember that part. Did really tell her she was cute? No, I told her that what she was doing was cute, it's not the same. Right?
Oh no no no, did I really tell her I loved talking to her?! I feel like an idiot now, I'm so embarrassed...
She replied to my messages and I know it. I'm a little afraid to read what she answered after that but I'll never sleep if I don't.

Yes, I know you can do whatever you want.
I didn't mean to offend you.
It was just weird of you not to answer

It could have been worse. I should talk to her now that I am sober and can think properly. Just so we can clarified that I wasn't mad at her about anything but just completely wasted.

Morning

Hi

How are you?

I'm okay. How about you?

I'm okay, thanks
Umh
About last night

What about it?

I was drunk, that's why I was acting weird.

Yes I came to this conclusion, when
you told me I was cute and also
that you loved talking to me.

Right, okay.

I that all you wanted to say?

Umh pretty much yeah.
Also just so you know, you didn't offend me
It was actually very nice of you to worry about me.

Okay. Can I ask you something?

Sure

I know you wasn't thinking straight
but did you meant what you said?

What?
What did I say?

That you loved talking to me.
Is it true?

Well,
Is it okay if I do?
