The man infront of me seems to be asking me something but I'm unable to comprehend his words. Infact the world stopped making sense after the tenth shot.

Earlier Remi was trying to stop me, his lips and hands aggressively moving as I swiftly moved past him to the dance floor. The man looks very familiar to me as he keeps trying to build a conversation without any luck. I had one of those shitty days since I woke up to another intense nightmare. They came for me again, trying to choke me to death.

Followed by the nightmare I sensed the gloomy feeling of someone's eyes on me for the entire day. I messed up my cello recital. Naturally I came for the pub to drink my worries away, where I felt the uneasiness. Again. The awareness of someone watching me suffocated me so much to the point I went looking for the person but came up with empty hands. 

My vision blurs as my blonde ponytail swings from side to side when I feel someone holding me by my waist. I try to wiggle out of their hold, but I might as well be trying to move a damn mountain. The world tilts on its axis and my senses are invaded by woody smell with a hint of tobacco. 

My body feels like floating and then moving smooth for few minutes before it hit something very soft. Throughout the time the woody smell accompanies me. Whatever feeble connection that I have with the world snaps and everything goes black.

For few seconds nothing registers in my mind, before I get clear picture of my room. My head pounds like someone is playing drums inside. I clutch my head with my hands closing my eyes.

Holding my head I sit straight shaking it for a few times trying to shoo away the darkness. A hand appears in my vision with a tablet and I jump back in shock. I lift my gaze to find Eli holding a glass of water, another hand giving me what I assume as paracetamol.

I reluctantly take it from him and gulp it after drinking water. I am no longer dressed in my pretty pink dress, instead I am wearing one of my silky pajamas. No matter how much I scratch my brain I can't remember anything.

Did he change my clothes? The thought alone makes me go red at face. I look up to see Eli giving me a blank stare.

"What are..." Eli raises his hand stopping me midtracks.

"What is the last thing you remember?" his morning voice sent deep shivers down to my body. Was his voice always this deep?

"Drinking shots, dancing and the world flipping upside down" I say in a low voice. 

The intoxicating woody smell mixed with tobacco. I obviously don't say that because now my brain realizes the smell as him.

"The guy you were talking to?" his jaw clenches hard. 

"Who? I didn't talk to anybody" I genuinely don't remember anything or anybody. 

"Ava, he was dancing with you. What did he say?" his eyes bore into mine. 

Now that he has mentioned dancing, bits and pieces of memories comes back to me. I was dancing and then someone was trying to talk. But that is how far my brain could remember right now. 

How many aura points will I lose if I mention that I was too drunk to recall the talk I had with the other guy? In fact that I don't even recognize the guy.
