A weird love story

Crash Out

Molly
I was sitting on a crate starring at my phone when Tiffany ran over and said hey Molly, you okay? I said oh yeah, I'm fine. I'm sorry about earlier, I didn't mean to single you out like that. Tiffany said no, it's okay. I appreciate it actually. Everyone here thinks you're vile and I don't see how. I said neither do I? I haven't done shit to anyone here. Is that how they act towards me. Nice to my face and then talk shit about me behind my back? Tiffany said unfortunately, I try to tell people you're a good guy. I said but nobody believes you. What else do you expect from a washed up carnie? Tiffany said you were in the carnival? I said yeah, back home. It was my first job and I loved it. I loved everyone there. Everyone was so weird, it was freeing to be as weird as I wanted. Tiffany said why'd you leave? I looked down and said shit hit the fan, a circus act we had got loose and it killed everyone there. I was the only survivor. I was about to cry. Tiffany said Molly I'm sorry. I wiped my eyes and said it's okay. It happened a long time ago. Tiffany said is that when you came here? I said essentially, I helped a few friends out with some stuff before I came here. But it almost costed me my life to help them. So when they were all asleep, I just left. Didn't say goodbye or anything. Tiffany said have you tried reaching out? I said I can't, it's hard to contact them. Tiffany grabbed my hand and said it wouldn't hurt to try. I said maybe. I'm sorry for trauma dumping. I don't like to live in the past but-. Tiffany said Molly don't apologize. I can tell you haven't told anyone about this. I said I miss them so much Tiff. Tiffany said do you ever see them when we go to England? I said no. I broke down crying. Tiffany hugged me and said calm down Molly. I backed up and said I just need a moment alone please. Tiffany said okay. I went outside. I leaned against the wall and kicked it. I started having flashbacks of me killing Gustav. I punched the wall so hard it exploded. I screamed MOTHERFUCKER! My hand was bleeding. I watched my blood turn to ice. I flicked it on the ground and sat down. I just sat there and cried.

2 hours later
I walked in the hotel room. I took off my clothes and snapped my fingers. I turned back into my purple tiefling self. It feels good to get out of a human skin suit. I wish I could just be myself but people aren't purple creatures with tails. Being someone else feels weird. My phone rang. It was my friend Natalie aka Tatum Paxley. Tatum was my only friend in NXT. She's the only person who knows what I am and what I look like. I answered the FaceTime with it pointing at ceiling.

Natalie: Molly what room are you in? The hotel doesn't have my reservation apparently. Can I come bunk with you for the night?

Me: is it just you?

Natalie: yes

Me: room 523

Natalie: okay, see you in a minute

Hung up
I put on some shorts. There was a knock on my door. I opened it and stood behind the door. Natalie walked in and said I figured you were in this state. I closed the door and said actually I was naked a second ago. Natalie laughed and flopped on the bed. Natalie said where were you tonight? I couldn't find you anywhere. I said I might've crashed out and blew up a brick wall. Natalie said excuse me? I said look Tiff and I got to talking and I spilled a little bit of my previous life. Not the extent that you know. But enough for her to be like oh shit he's not a total freak. Because apparently that's what everyone there thinks I am. Natalie said well I am too. I said yeah but you're not purple and have a fucking 4 foot tail. Natalie said no I don't, but we're both freaks Molly. Kit is more passing than me though. But what part made you blow up the wall? I said the part when I recounted where I left my friends without an explanation and ya know my whole friends and family dying in front of me. That might've sealed it. Natalie said Jesus Christ, Molly. I said you're the only person who knows the depths of that. But yeah if you went outback and saw the wall blown up. That was me unfortunately. I didn't mean to blow it up. I'm a shitty friend. I feel bad everyday for leaving them. I waved my hand and made my cards appear in my hand and started shuffling. Natalie said that'll always be cool to me. I smiled and said I'm glad you think so. Oh on top of that, I also talked about Jack. Natalie said oh shit. I said not in explicit detail, I just said that he broke my heart and I'll never be able to love someone the way I loved him. Natalie said Molly you're capable of love. I said Nat, I've never loved someone as much as I loved him. Then he saw me for what I truly am and he left me. I started crying. I said I don't want to get hurt again. Natalie hugged me and said don't let one bad reaction ruin love for you Molly. Look how I reacted, I thought it was the coolest shit I've ever seen. I still do, someone else will accept you for you Molly. I said who could ever love a purple carnie! I'm a freak Nat! Jack and I were together 2 years and when he finally saw me for me he left. I'm going to die alone. Natalie said are you into Tiffany? I said yeah, but I don't want to hurt her and I don't want to get hurt. I lose everyone I love. I'm surprised you haven't left me. Natalie said I'm never gonna leave you Molly. I pinky promise. I said okay. Natalie smiled and said let's get some sleep. I said actually I'm gonna shower first. You can take the bed, I'll take the couch. Natalie said you sure? I said yeah. Natalie said okay. I grabbed some clothes from my suitcase, went to the bathroom and showered....
