Quinn

After last night and uh whatever the fuck that was, I went home and instantly took my ass to sleep.

And knowing I have a date tonight with Vera is actually shaking me to my core, no jokes. I haven't been on a date in a while and who knows this woman whom I don't even know yet could be some possible serial killer, which by the way, I wouldn't be surprised by the way she looks.

But I can't just stand her up again, that would be selfish by the way I know she has an interest in me and I think I have an interest for her too. 

It was currently 4pm so I have an hour or two until Vera comes to get me. We exchanged phone numbers while texting on that dating app this morning since that would be easier.

So far she doesn't seem so bad though, she seems like a nice and caring person, but people do wear masks a lot and I'm not gonna fall for her yet until her mask is off. 

I know that sounds like I'm gonna be playing hard to get but hey a girl needs to know if her possible future soulmate is a serial killer or not, and between me and you, that would be hot. 

I'm fucked up in many ways so the fact I just admitted that to myself doesn't even concern me and I also blame in on the books I read. 

My thoughts to myself were ruined when I heard my phone start ringing and Vera's name popped up brightly on the screen.

I wasn't sure if I wanted to answer it knowing that I actually can't comprehend words when I talk to her but I gathered myself up and grew some balls to answer.

Putting the phone to my ear, I was the first one to say something. "Hello??"

I heard some noises in the background but couldn't really figure out what they were.

"Hey Quinn, sorry I'm calling you before our date but well this is actually about that.. I have to cancel." I heard her tone in her voice saddening as she spoke.

I frowned and started looking for things to say. "Uhm.. why?."

I heard her talk to some people and sighed before speaking again, "I have uhm work and need to do some things, maybe Saturday?" 

Hesitating for a second, "I don't think the universe is wanting us to get together. I know the first date was my fault but like missing a second time?"

She was silent for a second so I assumed she was looking for something to say. "Maybe.. but I am sorry and we can have a date."

I rolled my eyes, feeling myself start to have an uneasy feeling and my eyes start to sting. I did not want to cry over this but I really wanted to go and get to know her and see if someone actually has an interest in me. 

I finally spoke again, "No It's okay, just let me know one day when your not busy." I said while hanging up and throwing my phone to the side.

Stupid reason to get sad over I know, but this actually kind of hit me deep. 

Looking at my surroundings and thinking about what to do, I finally conjured up a thought and decided to go to the club to see if Chloe knows where Vera is.

I changed into more club worthy clothes and slipped out the house and got into my car instantly speeding off.

See I know I look like a crazy woman going to find her but hey I don't give up on things.. or people that easily.

Finally making it to the club, I walked inside and was of course like always met with that God awful club smell. Like actually shit is so bad sometimes.
