I have no friends well I talk to a lot of people but I don't remember their name.

I'm a drug addict, I got addicted because of my brother. He's a drugdealer and everywhere in the house is drugs laying around so it's hard not to get addicted.

My brother doesn't know and he can't know. I'm trying to quit but I just get more and more addicted. 

My brother is grocery shopping so I have exactly 1 hour to do some drugs. I go into my brother's room and get the duffelbag where the drugs is stored, get some cocaine to snort and my favourite, molly.

I go into my room and line up some coke on my desk and snort it. I then take the molly and swallow it with some beer. When I suddenly hear a bike outside, that can't be Barry right, it's only been 15 minutes since he left?

"Yo Barry, I need my shit!" a male voice yells, the voice so sounds familiar. I walk out of my room and get met with the one and only Rafe Cameron but my brother calls him Country Boy. 

"Barry's not here." I say. "Well then where is he?" he asks, "He's at the grocery store" I answer him. "Well I need my shit, I'm in a hurry. Can't you do the business?" He asks. "I'm sorry but I can't, Barry will be mad. I guess you'll have to wait" I answer. 

"The party is already started, I need it" he says. "I'll do the business for once, on one condition" I say. "And what would that be?" He asks, curious. "You need to take me to that party." I answer. I'm in the mood for a party and the drugs are kicking in. "Deal."

I walk back into Barry's room, Rafe following behind and I get the duffel bag again from Barry's closet. "How much do you want?" I ask him. "Depends on how much I could pay" He answers. "I can give you a bag for 300 and two for 500" I say. "I'll do one" He says. 

"Can't afford more?" I ask curious because he's like the richest kid on the island. "None of your business" He answers kinda angry. "okay so one bag it is" I say. He hands the money and I give him the bag of coke. "Pleasure doing business with you" I say with a grin. 

"let's go" He says. "What! I'm not ready yet." I say, panicked because no way in hell am I going to a kook's party in my sweatpants and hoodie. "Just give me 10 minutes max, please" I beg him. "Okay fine" He answers. 

I walk into my room, Rafe following. Shit, I forgot to clean the drugs off my desk. I quickly walk over to my desk and wipe the remaining drugs off the desk and put the left over cocaine from the bag and molly in a random drawer. 

"No need to hide it from me" He says with a smirk. "If my brother walks into my room he would kill me" I say. "Well I'm not your brother"

I open my closet and grab the dress I had in my mind.  I walk into the bathroom and quickly get dressed. I bought this dress in a thrift store, I was so lucky to find this for a decent price, I thought it would come in handy.  

I brushed my hair really quickly and let it loose, put some mascara on and walked back into my room. "Now I'm ready" I say. Rafe turns around from my bookshelf and looks at me "wow" he says. "Are we just gonna stand here or are we going to leave?" I ask him impatiently because I wanted something strong to drink and some more drugs.

We get onto his motorcycle and I hold on tight.

A/n: what do we think? Hope you're liking it as much as I do. This will NOT follow the OBX plot. This is my first time writing with full sentences not like a dialogue like my other books. Be honest is it good? Or do you prefer the dialogues? Ideas are always welcome! Love y'all! Stay safe!
