drive.
I could've stayed home and watched this entire party on Snapchat. I don't know anyone here other than my cousin Carly, who actually just texted me saying she went off with some friends somewhere in the house. I tucked a curl behind my ear and leaned on the wall, attempting to pull down my dress a bit. No one in their right mind would wear this shit. Then again, despite being convinced and nearly bribed to wear "something cute" tonight, I can't really say I was in my right mind either, especially for not making her give me the money. I could've used it for an Uber or some shit.
"Hey," I heard a voice to my right. I looked up and saw a tall Hispanic boy smiling. Not at me, though. He was legit smiling at my ass. He said hi to my butt. Literally, I shit you not, ol' boy was trying to communicate with my curves.
"I don't think you can get a reply from my ass but I'm right here, hi," I said, glancing from my phone and quickly returning to it.
"My bad, ma," He chuckled. "You here alone?"
"With a cousin."
"You got a boyfriend, shawty?"
"I don't want one. Sorry," I smiled genuinely. "Shorty over there is a baddie though, you should dance with her."
He raised his eyebrows. "That's what's up, Miss Independent. Sorry to bother you."
"Nah, you're good, hun," I nodded, starting to text a friend. "You gonna talk to the box-braid jawn now?"
"Uh, I guess. I might as well. Why?" He asked.
"Make eye contact. Ask her to dance. Don't offer her a drink," I looked up from my phone and smiled. "Good luck."
He smiled back. "What's your name?"
"Jay."
"You're probably a really good friend, Jay," He laughed. "I'm Ty."
"Nice meeting you, Ty," I smiled.
"I'll leave you to your phone now. Thanks for the advice," He nodded.
"Good luck, fam," I nodded back, pushing that one curl back behind my ear.

I ended up texting Carly and told her I was headed out. She was with her roommate so she'll be good for a ride home later tonight. Honestly, regardless of whether or not Connor texted me, I'd be out of here anyway.
I drove to my apartment and decided to just put on tights and a white T-Shirt. I threw my hair into a bun and was honestly too lazy to remove my makeup so I kept it on. Well, that and Connor would be over tonight, so ya know. Even though I'm dressed like a bum doesn't mean I can't keep my eyeliner on. That's all I had on tonight anyway.
