I'm still sitting outside, but right now it is so cold and my entire body is shivering. So I decide to get back in. Slowly I stand up and make my way back from the lonely street to the door of the house. Before I rushed out I didn't close the door I left it open just a tiny bit. I did it without thinking about it, but now I am glad that I did it. I stand right before the hazel door, my hand is at the doorknob but I stop.  Taking a deep breath I try to motivate myself "don't worry, everything is going to be okay, you won't be here forever, just get Kyle ". So my hand is at the doorknob again, but before I could pull it, the door was opened. I look up and stare at a really confused face.

" Who are you?"

The question was coming from a guy with the confused face. To be honest I have no idea who he is. He is taller than me, He has tanned skin and his black hair looks really messy, like he just messed around with it. The clothes he is wearing suit his look, although the jeans paired with a white shirt and a grey sweatshirt are a simple outfit. His confused face expression changed to a waiting one. Right I should probably answer.

So I start :" Erm... well  I am."

 He cut me off:" whatever, it looks like you belong inside this house with those other idiots."

He pushed me aside and now he rushes out of the house. Now it is me, who is the confused one. "Well that was strange " I think. I look back and see that he turns left. I think that I should mind my own business and so my hand is at that doorknob again I try to pull but it doesn't work I try to push and then realization hit me. While this guy was rushing out he  closed the door. I hit my head against the door. What should I do now? Even if I try to ring nobody would hear me or care about me. I have exactly two options now. The first option is staying here, freezing my butt off and hoping that Kyle is sober enough to notice that I am away or running after a complete stranger and hoping that he maybe took keys with him. Okay what is more realistic sober Kyle or that this stranger is clever? My decision is made I go after that guy. Sober and Kyle are two words that don't go well with each other. So I turn left just like that boy did, hoping that he went straight because if not and I start to search him, then I will get lost, because I don't really know this area well. I go about 50 meters and I see someone, hoping that it is him I come closer. He is sitting on the footpath he has his elbow on his knees and his face in his hands but I remember his jacket. I come closer to him and realise that he doesn't look too well, actually he looks bad and in a position like this he looks kind of depressed, he looks like he is resting. I know exactly how you feel . I come closer, so I stand right next to him and sit down. He seems to notice me for the first time and looks up. "Would you mind leaving me alone?" He asked quite politely to be honest. It is really strange, because it is very obvious that he doesn't want my company, but he is still very polite.

 So I start to answer for the second time:"Well actually I wouldn't mind, but you closed the door so I had two options, staying there or running after you and hoping that you have keys."


"Oh I'm sorry I didn't realise that I closed the door, but I can't help you either, I also don't have keys."
I can tell that he really feels sorry because of this situation, but I sigh and look away. What am I supposed to do now? There is no way I can get in, get Kyle and finally leave from this hell. But wait, I look at him again.


"Did I get this right you literally escaped, without taking keys or leaving the door a little bit open? You really wanted to get away, am I right?"


The gut starts smiling:"that was a really good guess . Erm... how do I explain this, you know this situation when you planned something and  actually it was a good plan in theory, but then nothing worked out the way you wanted it to?"


I nod when he told me this. You have no idea how good I know those situations.

 He continue:" well I guess that kind of happened to me tonight."


He run his hands through his hair, messing it up even more.

"Besides my name is Samuel, but call me Sam."


"Nice to meet you and I know you don't know me, but you can believe me when I say that I exactly know how you feel. You know I'm out here more or less because of the same reason."

His expression lights up a bit." Probably I shouldn't ask this, but I have never seen you with them. So are you the new girlfriend of kyle? I saw you two coming at the same time."


I start to grin:" Kyle and I will never ever  be in a relationship. We are not even friends. He just needed someone to drive him around and we are neighbors so that's how I came here. I probably shouldn't be saying this either, but I don't really like those people inside there. I'm serious you are the first person, who seems nice to me."

Samuel changed his position and I can't help myself, but he already looks better, maybe talking to him was a good idea. "I know these people can be really crappy, but if you know them better,  they are cool to hang out with", he said.


" I guess it must be so. Wait when you were at the door didn't you also say something about "those idiots"?"


"Yes but that was only because I was kinda angry with like everyone, because, well how do I say this ... okay something happened tonight and I didn't like it and nobody understood me and yes you're right sometimes they're really shitty"


He bit his lip , it looks like he his really concentrated  and concerned about something.
I wonder if I said anything wrong, but he seems to notice it, so he changes his expression into a more friendly one.

 "We should head back and look for some way to get in, it's actually really cold here,"he said.

We both stand up and we walk silently back to the house. I'm sure he has something he wants to talk about, but I don't want to seem impolite and ask, because it may be to personal for him and we are still strangers. We stop right before the door of the house. "Any ideas how we get in"?

This was the second chapter and now you know sam, but I'm not sure what I want to do with his character.
Bye:)
