Y/N's POV
May 26, 1985
11:29 PM
(Warning: drinking, kissing,
sorry if I forgot anything)
--------------------------------------------------------------
I drank quite too much and because of that, I laid down on the couch and closed my eyes for a minute so I could come to my senses. I ignored everything. I didn't listen to my friends' conversations or neither did I participate in one.
After 10 minutes of me just staying still on the couch, I got up. Around me were everyone except for Michael and Jessica which was really suspicious. When I regained consciousness, I got up from the couch and dizzily stumbled across the room to search in the other rooms.
They weren't on the first floor. I thought that I was too drunk to find them but I still decided to look for them upstairs. I struggled 5 minutes to go up the stairs until I finally did. Simon and Stella's house had really long corridors since their house was big so I took awhile.
I was at the turn of the corridor and that was my last hope to find them. I looked around the corner just as carelessly as they were kissing.
I didn't give a shit how drunk I was at this point. I felt some tears leave my eyes but I tried to keep them in. They kept kissing until I gasped which was the moment I took a glimpse. I felt a rock falling in my stomach and my heart dropped suddenly. Michael looked at me, scared as Jessica looked kind of proud of herself.
I didn't say absolutely anything. Neither did Jessica. The only brave one to the so was Michael.
"Y/N, it's not what it looks like.." His voice felt shaky.
I didn't listen and just ran away. I didnt know where to go cuz I couldn't just run out of the house. Let's not mention the fact that I was drunk, sad and anyone could kidnap me. At this point, I intentionally entered the bathroom, where I cried my heart out and had more space for a few minutes until I heard a knock on the door.
"Y/N..?" It was Maddie who was knocking. I wiped my tears and answered.
"Yeah?" I tried to make my voice sound as normal as possible and I think I succeeded.
"Are you okay?.. You've been in there for a while" She worriedly asked and by her voice, I think she already knew that I was upset.
"I'm fine.." I sighed "Um.. Maddie.. Would you mind helping me get back home?.. My head is spinning and I just wanna have a rest for tonight.."
"No, I don't mind" She kindly replied as she stayed outside, waiting for me to finally come out "Come on!"
I came out of the bathroom quickly and also left the house as quickly, saying bye to everybody. I didn't know where Michael and Jessica were and I didn't believe they actually stayed together after what happened. It didn't matter all I wanted was to get to bed and forget about tonight.
We walked away from the house back to mine. I even wondered how did Maddie agree to get me back home, knowing that my neighbourhood was quite far from Simon and Stella's. Well, she had already got on her way with me so it didn't matter but I was really grateful for her.
"Thank you for helping me get back home!" I smiled and looked at her kindly as I tried not to show the hidden disappointment from Michael's shit.
"Of course, I mean, I wouldn't have let you go out here alone!" She answered and ensured me "Especially being drunk".
"I heard you were sobbing when I found you in the bathroom... Umm.. Do you mind if I ask what happened..?" Maddie asked once and I knew that it was all over with Michael so I finally blew that cover. I stopped walking so did she.
"Well, um.. it was because of Michael.." I started explaining as calmly as I could "Now, this may sound really weird to you but we've actually been dating for quite a while now... We just.. didn't want to tell you..."
She looked at me understandingly and weirdly at the same time. She also looked pretty shocked and surprised by the information she was just given. Though, she did not exclaim in frustration or surprise or even in angriness, she just asked:
"What happened with him?"
"Y'know, I started looking for him and Jessica as I told you I would and then..." I tried keeping calm but at this point I just felt my voice breaking down and warm tears streaming down my cheeks. I ended the sentence just like that because I couldn't finish it without actually having a breakdown.
"Aww.. come here!" She opened her arms in a welcoming hug and she affectionately wrapped her arms around me "You don't have to go all depressed because of him.. he's just a boy and definitely the least you could care about!"
"I know but.. I loved him.." And that's when another stream of heavy tears showed up.
"You are one amazing girl and I won't let you cry over that asshole!" She gave me some confidence to be able to think that I didn't need him. Though, I kept on crying with voice "You're going to get over him because you're strong and independent".
I wiped my tears and tried to smile. Quite unsuccessfully if you ask me but it's the attempt that counts.
"Thank you so much, Maddie! I don't know what I would've done without you right now!" I hugged her once again as we stayed like this for a few seconds and once I had pulled off, we continued walking. At least we were close to my house so I could eventually go to bed.
--- Time skip ---
Happily for me, we were already in front of my house. We said our goodbyes, hugged one last time and I thanked her for getting me back home and listening to me. I also asked her to call me once she was back home so I could be sure she returned home safely (I knew that I would be asleep already but I'd still pick up to check up on her at least).
I got in, took of my heels cause my feet were already hurting like hell and as quietly as possible got up the stairs back to my room. If not anything else, I had the great ability of hiding whether I was drunk so I didn't have a problem with being quiet to not wake up my dad.
It was around 1:30 am and I was wondering how he didn't call me to check where I was. Well, I brushed it off thinking he just fell asleep early. Honestly, I was more tired than ever so all I did was put on my pajamas and take off my makeup.
Once I did all of that, I finally laid down on my bed and cried myself to sleep.
