Alicia and I pulled up to Roger's apartment in her car, I made her give me the keys since she was planning on drinking tonight, I was going to be the designated driver. Roger answered the door and looked happy to see Alicia and suprised to see me, he pulled me into a hug, "You're actually here in the flesh!"

Dork.

"Yea..I've just been kinda busy lately." "It's cool I'm glad you could make it." He lead us up to his apartment and there were already quite a few people, the music was going and I could see people playing beer pong in the kitchen. I walked to the fridge and grabbed a waterbottle. Glancing around, I recognized alot of these people, from classes or just seeing them around campus. I spotted Alicia on the sofa with a group of people. I walked over and sat next to her, "What are you all doing?" "Oh we're playing this game called heads up, basically you see Jordan holding up the ipad against his head? It's an app and you have to give him hints on whatever or whoevers name comes on the screen..but you can't tell him who it is exactly." We played a couple rounds of Heads Up and it was getting intense! We were in a rush to guess who was on the screen it was pretty funny.

I ended up drinking like 3 bottles of water by now and I danced a bit with Alicia, she was getting drunk, I could see it on her face. I on the other hand needed to take the biggest piss. I made my way to the bathroom and opened the door to find someone bent over the sink having a nose bleed. It was a guy. I grabbed some toilet paper and handed it to him, "You okay?" he looked at me and nodded..."This is like my third one today."

Dayum!?

He stood up straight and I could see what he was trying to cover on the sink....coke.

I looked at him, "Is that yours?" "Yea." he sounded ashamed. "You need moisture and liquid..that's why you're bleeding so much." "How do you know?" he turned around and looked at me, he's fairly handsome.. but he's no Robert. "Because I was a snorter." He looked at me weird, "Really? What happened?" "I stopped...because if I didn't ...my life would be ruined." he scratched the back of his neck, "Well do you want some I don't mind?" I looked at him and my heart rate picked up...it takes a long time for withdrawal to completely end, sure..the worst of it is done with..but sometimes my body misses the coke and just completely shuts down and all I want to do is sleep, sometimes I feel depressed and like I would do anything to have just one snort again but then I remember what's at stake and that I promised Robert, and I can't let him down. I just can't, I won't be selfish towards him again. This doesn't mean I'm not mad at him for how he tried to demand me earlier..yep I'm still pissed about that, but right now this is the first time I've ever been tested...I haven't seen coke since I flushed my last bit away..and right now it is so tempting.

Would I regret this choice?

I couldn't help it...

I walked over and stood infront of the setup, and without giving it another thought, I took the mirror it was on and dumped it in the trash can right next to the sink. "Hey what the fuck!?" I turned and looked at him, he looked pissed...if I wasn't clean and someone did that to me I'd be pissed to, "You're better than that.. that is just bringing you down, everytime you do it you dig yourself deeper and you don't even realize it. You just snort like it's a routine, but try looking at it in someone else's perspective who doesn't do coke..and look at what that routine is doing to you." he didn't look mad anymore..he was listening to what I was saying he was clean and getting what I was trying to say to him, and that's all that mattered. "Can you think about it outside though...I really need to pee." he looked at me, a bit shocked and slowly left the bathroom...maybe I helped him, maybe he's gonna snort as soon as he gets home, but it was worth a try, and I'm proud of myself.

I left the bathroom and went to find Alicia, it's already 12:00 a.m. and the baby's making me sleepy. I found her in the kitchen drinking something, most likely liquor. "Hey we should get going it's already 12." I shouted over the music, she frowned and pouted, "Alicia..you're drunk and I'm pregnant, it's time to go." she sadly nodded and we left, she brought her cup with her.
