Someone Else

Thirty Five

Breezy.

It's been more than two weeks since Tinashe left, she didn't want to get visiting days there, she just fully wanted to be away to focus all on herself. Which I understand. She need to get better, is keeping showing up is going to hold her back. While she's been gone I have mostly just been working and staying at home, occasionally meeting up Jhene and Trey.

"You know what, we haven't done anything real fun in ages, when the last time we went out?" Trey suggested.

Trey, Jhene and their other half's are currently around my house, keeping me company for the evening.

"I can't even remember." I shrugged.

I honestly couldn't remember. I didn't go while T was away or I didn't go when she back as she was trying to get better, going to he club wouldn't help that.

"I'm not really dressed for all that now though." Lauren complained to Trey.

"You sure you even ready for that, Chris?" Jhene asked me.

"Why wouldn't I be ready?" I asked back in a confused expression.

"Well, I mean. Usually after break ups people go to the club to move onto someone else." Jhene explained.

I suppose that it true, but I didn't even think of it like that until now. I was just planning on going out and having fun with my closest friends.

I still love T. I still stay thinking about her when I'm all alone in bed. I don't know if I'm ready to move on from her yet. However, she has given me her blessing to find someone else, so if someone else comes along and manages to have an affect on me I won't shy away from it. But she going have to be special to compare or even come close to Tinashe.

"I'm just going out to have fun." I told Jhene.

"So everyone wit it?" Trey asked with a happy smile.

"I am." I confirmed.

Shortly after a bit of discussing the girls finally said yes too. This is an sudden change of plans for the night. The girls where complaining what they look like but it was just going to be a quick night out.

We got a über there as we know we will be drinking.

"Why it so busy?!" Jhene shouted over the music as we walked through.

Donald took her hand as they walked through the crowd, making our way to a table. We then ordered some drinks in. I'm the only single one tonight, which feels oddly wired as I'm usual the only one who is taken.

"Friendly drinking competition?" Trey questioned me with a smirk.

"Thought we weren't getting wasted?" I chuckled.

"Aieh." Trey shrugged with a laugh.

I started drinking whatever Trey was passing to me.

"You looking for someone?" Trey asked me.

I wasn't looking for someone purposely, if I come across someone though I might change my mind.

"Don't be comparing girls to, Tinashe. New girl, new relationship, it's going to be different." Trey gave me advice.

"Hopefully it's a good different, I don't think I even know how to get girls anymore." I awkwardly chuckled. "The other relationship just went from friends into more."

"Just go buy a pretty lady a drink." Trey boosted me on.

I just didn't feel comfortable with it yet. Isn't it too soon? I know she gone and wants me to be happy but don't mean I have to jump straight into a new relationship.

"Trey, leave me him alone, baby." Lauren came over, taking Trey's hand.

They walked off, doing their relationship lovey dovey shit. While I stood, looking over at all the couples dancing and kissing in each other. My eyes stopped on Jhene and Donald, who where sitting down at a table, laughing and hugging up on each other too. I smiled a bit, it's nice to see Jhene happy. Maybe I should go for someone simply but cute like Jhene. She seems like a good girlfriend.

I got my phone out, wondering whether I should text Tinashe or not. I know she wants to get away and have her own space in rehab. But my mind is just on her, I miss her and the relationship stuff. I want to hold someone at night, I want to show off my girl in a club in front of all the nigga's. Been a long ass time since I was living the single life.

"You sure you straight to drive?" Trey questioned me.

"I only had a few." I spoke truthfully.

Lauren and Trey jumped into the back along with Jhene, while Donald say in the passenger seat next to me.

"You a quite one." I started conversation with Donald as I started driving.

"Sometimes I suppose." He replied shyly.

"Leave him alone, Chris." Jhene defended him, with a little laugh at the end.

I dropped Trey and Lauren off first, then Jhene and Donald. Then I went back home, walking into the usual quite empty house. I had a quick wash, got into my basketball shorts then got into bed. Wrapping myself up in the covers, hugging up to the pillow. This is so sad. I miss having someone else in the bed with me.

I couldn't sleep so I scrolled through my phone for around an hour. Going through Tinashe's old Instagram, seeing photos of us together. Also, seeing photos of her, me, Trey, Tyga, Jhene and Mia. Now we don't have Mia, Tyga or Tinashe. How times have changed, people changed.

Short & boring chapter, I'm sorry! I had small writers block. Also... Calm before the storm...

1) You think it's to early for Chris to move on?

2) You think Chris misses Tinashe or the relationship feeling? Or both?

3) You prefer the old or new group? Old group being Tinashe, Chris, Jhene, Mia, Trey & Tyga or the new group Chris, Trey, Lauren, Jhene and Donald?
