NOW PLAYING:
THE BLACK DOG
t. swift

i always hated parties. hated the sweaty bodies that would surround me, the god awful loud music that made your ears ring, and seeing people you don't wanna see.

i adjust my purple corset top in the bathroom mirror, i had to pick out a costume last minute and ended up dressing as repunzel.

i fix the crown on my head and reapply my lipstick, which has been slowly coming off all night. i take one last look in the mirror and open the bathroom door.

i make eye contact with no other then stacy oxton. yes, the stacy oxton that is now dating the carrington that broke my heart.

stacy is dressed as a sexy version of lola bunny, and carrington is dressed as bugs. she looks me up and down and makes a disgusted look on her face, not even trying to hide it.

she bumps into my shoulder well rolling her eyes. i scoff and walk out the bathroom, i have no idea why she's always been a bitch to me.

i walk back into the kitchen hoping to find a dr pepper, or any non-alcoholic drink. i look around in the fridge, but there's only left overs and beer, same in the freezer.

i take a few rounds around the kitchen looking for anything, but there wasn't anything. i sigh and decide to look in the garage.

i surprisingly found it pretty fast considering how big the house was. but when i open the door i wish it took me longer.

carrington sits alone in the room playing pool by himself, i assume he was waiting for stacy or someone else to come back.

i stand in the door and he freezes up looking back at me. we stare at each other for what feels like forever. we weren't saying anything but in a way, we were.

"camil-" carrington says and starts walking towards me but gets cut off by stacy walking back into the garage. she bumps into my shoulder again, and runs into carringtons arms acting as if she hasn't seen him in years.

"hey baby" she giggles well wrapping her arms around his neck and leaning into kiss him, which leads to her making out with him.

however carringtons eye contact with me barely breaks. he isn't really kissing back and just continues to stare at me.

my gaze softens and i tilt my head towards him, not knowing what he was trying to say. but stacy harshly pulls out of the kiss when she realizes that he wasn't kissing back.

i can almost see the steam coming out of her ears when she sees he's still looking at me. "why are you still here" she turns around and basically yells at me.

i snap out of whatever trance carrington put me in and walk towards the fridge, successfully finding a dr pepper.

i turn around and walk out the garage, looking back at carrington one last time. he looked at me like how he used to, how he looked at me when we were in love.

that moment gave me hope, hope that the old carrington was in there somewhere still. but fool me once, shame on you. fool me twice, shame on me.
