Today I sit at home, not doing anything of productivity. Mostly I was scrolling through twitter waiting for the photos of the meetup the boys had last night in NYC. I was proud of them, I have heard Cal, Callum, and JJ meeting their favourite fans. 

Since I had absolutely nothing planned today you can assume that I was disturbed when I heard knocking on my door. "Chip?" I answered as I revealed his face behind the door. He had a sad expression drawn across his face.

"I just got a call from your brother." Oh. I may have an idea of where this is going. "He knows about our relationship and says that we can't be together anymore." 

"We've barely even dated." I don't know what point I was trying to make, but anything to slow this down.

"That's good, it means we didn't get to far into the relationship before something serious happened. So we're not losing as much." Rather than sadness, anger was boiling up inside me.

"I'm losing you, and that's quite a bit." I shut the door in his face and locked my door, heading to my room for extra isolation. Did he really think that this didn't mean that much to me. 

The next few days I hadn't left my room except for eating and bathroom needs. I ignored my phone the whole time knowing that Cal or someone else might try to get a hold of me. That's when I made one of the dumbest choices of my life, or what I believe to be.

I slipped on a pair of jeans and a Volcom tee. Just casual wear. My phone was on the nightstand by my bed so I slipped it in my pocket, grabbed a LuxLike sweater and headed to the club where Aaron and I used to hang out. I can only hope he still does. 

I got in the cab that I called and instructed him to the nearby nightclub. We pulled up and it wasn't that crowded since it was a Tuesday night but if he could I guarantee that Aaron would be here. 

Checking my phone as I entered the club I saw many missed calls from Chip, and the Cals. The bouncer reconised me as a semi-regular and let me pass by the rest of the line. "The fuck mate we've been waiting for hours." I ignored the shouting and went straight to the bar. A couple shots down and more than a few to go.

After I was obviously wasted I jumped into the crowd and started dancing. The music was so loud it moved my boy, or my mind more or less. My mind was spinning and I couldn't focus on one figure as the blood in my vein moved faster and faster. I could physically feel it and it freaked me out.

Had I drank too much? Was this from too much emotional damage? No way! I was fine. I only came her to calm down. "Chloe?" I tried to find the person that the voice came from hoping it might be a handsome stranger that I could kiss to get Chip off my mind.

"Heyyy." I greeted the person confidently as he put his hand on my hip. My vision was so blurred that I couldn't really care what this person looked like.

"C'mon I need to bring you home. It's not safe here." I grinned at the thought of this person taking me home. It's not like I was cheating on Josh he broke up with me.

I instantly fell asleep in the Uber but woke up again when I was picked up and brought into the decently large house. "Why'd you bring her home?" A voice asked, it was another guy.

"She was alone at the club completely smashed I couldn't leave her." The stairs were spinning, figuratively and literally. Spiral stairs were an enemy when you're this drunk. I was set down on a bed that had a large tv at the end of it and many computers to the right of it. I could see a soft glow of colour coming from the dressers and nightstands that were calming.

"You just need rest." The man who was carrying me soon. "I'll see you in the morning." I watched the tall figure walk out the room and a wrapped myself in the white covers. Instantly growing comfortable with the scent made it easier to fall asleep in. Man am I gonna have a hangover tomorrow.
