8: drugs.

(again, another song. i think i'm gonna put songs there to portrait the chapter and to really set the mood)

aria's pov:
i got home and thought about everything harry said. what a dick. maybe he's right. maybe. just fucking maybe. oh no. it's happening again. i'm crying. i'm fucking crying.
i quickly get up and look under my bed for a box. ah, yes. i found it. my barbie lunchbox.
(tw: drugs and alcohol)
i open it and see my drug stash. i know i'm 15 and shouldn't be using drugs or alcohol but it's and escape. i open the packet and put in a line, then i snort it. this feels great. i go under my bed again and see the alcohol, i open the vodka and down it. it was only a small bottle so it's fine right? whatever. who cares. i snort another line, and drink the vodka. i go on my phone and go to see what i look like. i look horrible. my eyes bloodshot and puffy, mascara smudged, my nose covered in white powder. i look fucking horrendous. i take another bottle of alcohol, rum this time, and leave the house. i start walking while drinking the rum and i can't even walk in a straight line. i walk all the way to nicks house. this is going to be a fucking shit show.

nick's pov:
i'm still in the car and my mum is bombarding me with questions.
what happened to aria? why did you punch him? what did he say? did he punch you first?
just fuck off.
my eyes get teary and i start yo cry, nellie in my lap and licking my tears away.
"nicky, nicky baby. what happened?" my mum asked. i know she's worried but i'm not in the mood. they do say that love makes you crazy right? well, me and aria aren't even together. i mean, we kissed a couple times and i swear to god, i'm in love with her. she's the first girl who actually cares about me. she just makes me happy.
"don't worry mum, i'm fine" i smile while tears are still falling from my eyes.
"nicky, i know something is up." she raised an eyebrow.
i sigh and decide to tell her.
"harry was calling aria really bad words mum. he was making her feel uncomfortable and when i was asking him about it, he called her a really offensive word and i lost it." i look down at nellie.
"i see. aria's a real special friend ain't she?"
i lean my head against the window.
"yeah" i sigh. tears still falling from my eyes, snot coming down from my nose. i use my sleeve to wipe it away.
when we pull up outside i see someone familiar drinking some liquid that i'm 100% sure it's alcohol.
i take a closer look and it's aria.
i quickly get out the car and run over to her.

aria's pov:
i see nick coming at me.
"oh there you are, stranger" i swing my arms around his neck.
"aria. are you drunk?" he asks
"whaaaaat. pfft no" i laugh
"aria. what have you done?" he asks
"nothing....." i pause.
"aria, your drunk. why are you here?" he raises his voice a little.
"wait." i notice bruises on him. "what happened to you"
"nothing. i think your hallucinating" he says
"no i'm not! your a bullshit liar!" i shout at him.
"aria, please get inside." he looks at me seriously
"no. our relationship is bullshit." i look at him, taking another gulp of the rum
"bullshit?" nick looks at me with tears in his eyes.
"bullshit." i look at him.
"why are we bullshit?" he asks nearly crying.
"because. we aren't even dating, yet we kiss on the downlow. you are the reason people call me a dirty slut" i tremble on the floor. nick starts to cry and i fall on the floor.
"aria. none of this is my fault." nick's voice goes all raspy.
"it's all bullshit nick. you don't care about me. you never even liked me." i spit out, finishing the bottle of alcohol. i'm super drunk. and high for that matter.
"i love you aria. did you not mean anything you said to me? like how much you liked me?" he asks with tears falling from his eyes.
"we- we are bullshit. we are a lie." i spit out, my arms and legs shaking from the cold wind.
"aria please stop this" nick cries even harder
(tw: drugs)
"bullshit, bullshit, bullshit." i go in my pocket and pull out a bag of cocaine. i sit on the doorstep and line it. i go to snort it when nick stops me.
"aria! where the hell did you get that?" he shouts
"from ur mom" i say and quickly snort it. i get up to leave when nick grabs my arm and pushes me into his house.
"upstairs. get upstairs." he stands behind me. i walk the stairs and tremble as i'm high and drunk. like super drunk.
i walk into his room and sit on his bed.
"why are you doing this aria? aria? aria?" he calls my name.
i've blacked out.
