Claire's POV:
When Reneé left I almost felt empty. I didn't want her to go. She is such a fun person to have around and it was really interesting to get to know her a little better. About an hour after she left my place I decided to go to bed.The next few weeks flew by so fast. Reneé and I've been texting every day but since she is currently pretty busy with her upcoming album, we have only been able to meet up twice after that night. I've been furniture shopping and my apartment looks pretty bomb if you ask me. I've decided to keep everything in beige, white and grey with a few plants here and there. I'm a fan of decor so my apartment is full of it, but not too full.
My first day of work was on monday and it was actually pretty good. My coworkers are all pretty nice except for that girl Melissa but I don't really care about her, she just annoys me. She kept telling me what I'm did wrong when actually my way of preparing and serving food was completely fine. I know that because my other coworkers told me. Today was Wednesday and my shift started in the early morning . When I was done serving an older man a girl who was about my age came up to the counter.
"Hey, what can I get you today?" I asked her. "Hi! I'd say my usual but I haven't seen you here before so I'll get a caramel iced latte and a butter croissant please." She told me, smiling softly."That's funny, it's my exact to-go order." I replied, returning the smile. "So you come here a lot? Because you said you'd say your usual?" I asked her. "Every day actually so you better remember my order. I just haven't been here this week yet because I was out of town." She replied definitely flirting. "Alright! What name can I write onto the coffee cup for the pretty girl?" I asked her returning the flirt. A little fun couldn't hurt. She had black hair and pretty brown eyes. "It's Amber!" she exclaimed happily. "Alright Amber, coming right up, that'll be $7,49 with tax. Cash or card?" I asked and she held up her card. "Card please." I nodded and turned the card reader in her direction. She scanned the card and went to wait for her name to be called out. "Coffee for Amber?" I yelled and she came up to me. Taking her order she pulled out her phone. "My friend's throwing a party and I was wondering if you're interested in coming. It's in a small bar so it's open for everyone. I don't think she'd mind." the short girl in front of me said. "Sure, I don't mind but I can't stay that long, I start at 06:30 tomorrow." I told her but she seemed fine with that. "Cool, give me your insta and I'll text you the details." I did what she had told me to do and she smiled. "Okay I'll leave, I'm late for university. Talk to you later!" the shorter girl said as she turned around, ready to leave. "Can't wait!" I yelled after her and earned a chuckle from her.
When my shift ended, I went into the storage room and removed my apron. I gathered my stuff and told my coworkers goodbye. As soon as I got home I finally had the time to check through my notifications
'@Amb3r.02 started following you. 5hrs ago.'
I followed her back and about 10 minutes later I got a message from her. "Heyy." I unlocked my phone and slid into my dm's.
@Amb3r.02

'Amb3r.02 liked your message'
~Time skip to 8pm~
About an Hour before I had to leave I got ready. I put on a black mini dress, some black heels and a little black bag. I added some curls into my hair and did my makeup. I put on some lashes, eyeliner and some berry coloured matte lipstick. I was ready in time and decided to take my car and not get an Uber because I'm aware that I can't really drink, since I have work tomorrow. I headed to my car and drove to the adress Amber gave me. I got there at about 9:05pm and Amber was already there. She welcomed me and we got inside. She introduced me to her friends and we talked about various things.
After about 3 hours I felt the need of going to the bathroom since I had drunken a few glasses of soda and water. The second I opened the bathroom door I saw her laying there, unconscious. Her blonde hair all over her face. "Reneé!" was the only thing I said when I rushed over to her and kneed right next to her on the bathroom floor in front of the sinks. How had nobody noticed her laying there yet?? The bar is pretty full and I had seen various people coming out of there. She didn't look like she was only laying there for a minute. It looked longer, she was a little more pale than usual and I got really fucking scared. I reached for my phone but my purse was not with me, I left it at our table. I reached for her forearm to check her pulse and thank goodness it was there. I know that the music was too loud for anybody to hear me so I didn't even try. I didn't want to leave her alone on the floor but I had to. I put my hand onto her forehead and pushed her hair out of the way. I told her I'll be right back but I was aware that she couldn't hear me.
I rushed out of the stalls to the table and grabbed my bag in panic. "Are you okay???!" I heard one of Ambers friends asking. I just shook my head in no. "A friend of mine is laying on the bathroom floor, unconscious. I don't know since when she's laying there. We need an ambulance!" I replied. They immediately followed me, dealing 911 into their keypad. I kneed down next to Reneé again and held her hand when ambers friend, Oscar, handed me his phone.
"911, what's your emergency?"
