 June 3rd

Hi, it's me again, and if it's me, you already know it's not going to be good.

So basically, after she went to this "party", she got super drunk and she "fell in love" with her ex again and her ex rejected her and now she's depressed as heck. Wow, my English got pretty modernized. Back to the story. And how do I know this? I kind of sort of spied on her and I went to the party as well

-Oh come on! Just one drink! -Aria's ex said.

-Fineeee... -she said and she drank a lot more drinks than one.

I was thinking about leaving because the whole club smelt like tequila and it was honestly disgusting and I almost got run over with humans. I'd never go to not one of these stupid parties, even if my past would go away. Ugh, I made everything about myself again.

Then, as I saw, Aria got very very drunk and she got her phone out and texted me "heyyyyyyyyyy I can't let him gooooooo I love hiimm!!" and I immediately knew she was talking about her ex. Then she said the same thing to him and he rejected her in the most horrible way possible. Even I felt a knife going into my chest. She stormed out of the house and she ran to the garden with completely red eyes from crying. So I did what I had to do and I called Leia to help me carry Aria to the car. I heard her voice getting closer and closer to me, but not on the phone. She was on the other side of the garden trying to find me. Leia yelled my name out loud to see if I was there or not, and when my eyes saw her for the first time, I couldn't stop looking at her. Then my brain told my heart to stop this stupid thing and to respond and help Aria to get to the car I just learned how to control. I murmured an "I'm over here" under my nose.

-Where is she? -Leia asked while her right hand gripped her forehead.

-I don't know. She's in the garden somewhere.

-Why did you even let her come here?! -Leia said, panicking.

-I didn't know that she would get so drunk in the first place!

-Oh, come on, it's her ex for crying out loud! He obviously has alcohol anywhere he goes!

At this point, everyone next to us was staring at us. Leia looked like she was about to have a panic attack, and I personally didn't know what in the living hell I could say to her.

-It's going to be okay, we'll find her. -I said the first thing that came to my mind.

-Okay? You think it's going to be okay? You were the one who didn't do anything when it happened! Are you seriously that scared of people? Is that your stupid fear and symptom? My best friend is crying her drunk ass off somewhere and you don't do anything?!

-I tried to go and find her with you but you start this worthless argument instead of finding your best friend you supposedly care so much about? You're not the only victim here! Think about how we'd be on our way home now, but no! You had to hide all of your mistakes and shove them on me and Aria! This shows how much you care about her. Truly -I yelled and the people around us wanted to call Aria's ex to kick us out, including Axel, Leia's boyfriend, who didn't know it was us in the beginning.

-It's not what this is about! You knew she was going to come here without her even wanting to and you didn't tell her that it really isn't worth it!

-This is really pointless now, just come on and do something nice for your best friend! -I grabbed her hand aggressively and we ran out of the crowd. We were looking for a little bit of time and we reached a quiet place where no music was hearable. Leia then looked at me relieved that the music stopped.

-Hey -Leia said with a regretful expression on her face. -I'm sorry I said all those things to you. I was trying to hide my mistakes. It seems like all I am is just a regret towards everyone.

-What do you mean? -I asked. -You have Aria, you have your boyfriend who would die for you...-I said wanting to continue but she accidentally cut my words with her tears. In seconds, she was sobbing on my shoulders, while she was trying to explain everything. What I got out of it was that her boyfriend broke up with her because he regretted the decision of having a girlfriend. She was constantly asking me what she did wrong and it broke my heart seriously. When she started arguing with me, I never would've thought that this happened.

After she cried herself out, we went to look for Aria again and it didn't take too long, because she was waiting for us to come out.

-Where were you? We were so worried! -Leia said and she couldn't hold her tears back any longer.

Aria then murmured that she sneaked upstairs to take a nap and how she's surprisingly better. We took her to the car and we started our journey home.

-Soooo, what happened between the 2 of you in the alley? - she asked, and it was visible that she was still drunk. Leia started to gag and we were laughing so much.

-Aria, you smell straight up...-Leia wanted to say but me and Aria rudely interrupted her.

-Like life juice! -we screamed out loud and Leia looked at us like some kind of alcohol monsters.

-Calm down, it's a 1567 kind of thing.

-Definitely.

-Oh, remember when I was in a cafe with Dimitry and he pulled out his "life juice" and he said it's better free? -Aria asked, but she never even told me this.

-I miss them so much. -I whispered.

-Come on, you survived 7 years without him.

-I know, but during that time, my mind was in a different state, and I was thinking about everything but him and-I wanted to say, but some sort of bad pain hit my neck when I wanted to continue.

Aria didn't realize it, but Leia got confused and asked if I was okay or not. Then my eyes watered up and I still don't know why this happened.

Okay, there was nothing else, so we were driving quietly until we got to Aria's place. It was 1 am already, so her mom was sleeping. We entered in my martial arts style. We said bye to Leia and we entered Aria's secret room, cause that's where she wanted to sleep. Drunk people have pretty weird desires, I guess.

June 4th

Not this again! Aria keeps texting her stupid ex, even when she's totally sober again. Alright, I'll try to calm her down, and since it's summer break now, we'll finally go back like she promised! I'm so excited! Wish me luck, I'm going to calm her down now.
