I lay in bed thinking about my current situation, why is it so hard to like someone? Maybe i should try liking someone that i have a chance with. My mind kept thinking on ways to forget Ms. Stevens, maybe going to a bar? That's the usual way to forget someone, right? I quickly searched through the internet where the nearest gay bar is, i didn't want to fall in love with a straight person again, it hurts.

I gathered my things ready to improve my love life, closing the door behind me. The nearest was just a couple of blocks away from my apartment, i stood in front of it, hesitant, but i eventually convinced myself to go in. As I opened the door, my eyes were greeted by flashing lights and loud music, i felt instantly uncomfortable, i wasn't exactly the best socialite, i took a seat in front of the bartender's station, observing the place.

"Do you want anything?" I turned around revealing a female bartender.

"Give me the strongest you've got." I said, unaware of what i was asking for and fully aware that my alcohol tolerance isn't the best. The bartender gave me a nod and started to prepare my drink, seconds after, a girl sat beside me.

"So, what are you here for? Do you want to get layed?" She said smirking, i gave her a disgusted look, i hate people who assume, i guess that's why i liked Kollin after all, she never does, instead, she asks if something is wrong. I didn't reply to her, i thought minding my own business was the best option.

"Here you go." The bartender suddenly spoke, startling me a bit. I smiled at him, paying for my drink immediately, at this point, the girl beside me had already gone somewhere else. I took the shot that was given to me, wincing at the burning sensation in my throat.

As the hours went by, i took shots after shots of the alcohol, eventually crying, thinking about the good things that could've happened if she just liked me back, i sniffled, wiping my tears away with the back of my hand, i stood up grabbing my bag, ready to leave.

While walking home i felt incredibly dizzy, every step i took, the worse it got, i decided to sit in the streets for a while, after realizing that the dizziness isn't going to stop, i decided to call my best friend, asking her to pick me up.

"Molly?" I said to who i thought was Molly, in the verge of crying again.

"What? What the fuck happened to you?" A voice replied to me, it seemed familiar but my drunken state cannot pinpoint who it was.

"Why does she have to be so difficult? And why does it have to hurt so much?" I said finally ugly crying.

"Where are you? I'm coming to pick you up." The person said, worried.

"I-i'm somewhere in main street, i don't k-know." I cried, sniffling along the way.

After a couple of minutes, a car pulled up in front of me, the door opened, revealing a tall figure, obviously taller than Molly, my face frowned with my eyes squinting, trying to figure out who it was, as the figure came closer and closer i finally figured out who it was, my eyes widened upon realization, it was my boss, i tried to stand up straight, still dizzy, causing me to fall backwards, my eyes closed tightly expecting my body to hit the cold hard floor but it didn't, upon opening my eyes, i was presented with Kollin's face only centimeters away from me, making my cheeks heat up.

"What has gotten into you?!" She said angrily, i looked down, pouting, unable to speak.

The car ride was quiet, i turned to her angry face, admiring it.

"I'm sorry." I said, guilty of what had happened.

"What were you thinking? Calling your boss in the middle of the night drunk!? If you can't take it, then don't drink." She sternly said, my eyes already tearing up from being shouted at, when she noticed and she sighed, focusing herself into driving.
