Honest Diaries

Chapter 14

Dear diary,

school finally started. It was my first week at the University! Can you believe it? Sitting at the lectures, with tens of other students, living the student life. With Andrew by my side. Eeeeek. I can't believe it. I actually look forward to every school day. Of course Andrew grumbles each day about waking up early, learning unnecessary things, having boring lectures. But we sit together. We go to lunch together. Get coffee sometimes. I feel like we actually bonded quite a lot these past few days.

Best part of it all? Our classmates actually think we're dating. I know, it sounds silly and of course that I avidly refused it, because, you know, it's not the truth. But it's the little things... I actually liked that thought. Was it silly of me? Probably. Was Andrew feeling the same way. Most certainly not. I don't even know what gave that impression of us.

Then November came and with it the students' celebration. Something like an informal initiation for the first year students, plus other students were always welcome. It was a huge thing for the school. Something like a massive formal party. Of course me and Andrew were going. He even invited a roommate of his, our former classmate. It was supposed to be a good time. Until it got complicated.

Andrew ended up being sick unexpectedly. So it was just me and the friend, Peter. No, not my Peter, another one, haha. Since we didn't want to go along and had another spare ticket, Peter invited Tara. I wasn't super thrilled about the idea, but I was glad I wasn't coming with him alone. Tara then invited another friend, former classmate and Peter and Andrew's roommate Thomas. Complicated enough you say? Just wait and read on. It gets worse.

We went to the party, all glammed up. For the first few hours actually having a good time. I was pleasantly surprised. Then Tara started talking about her love endeavors. Different guys. No feelings, it was all physical. Just to let the steam off I guess. All just mere months after their break up with Andrew. I was pretty shocked, to say the least.

Thomas and Peter then started bashing Andrew. I couldn't believe my ears. They were saying pretty bad things about him and Tara actually joined in. It was making me sick. I could understand Tara, she might still be upset from the break up. But the guys? I thought they were his friends! They hung out together the whole high school and beyond. I wanted to get the hell out of here. Peter got wasted and was really touchy feely. I was disgusted. This was supposed to be a good time but I wasn't feeling good at all. I was the first one to leave the party.

That's not even the end of the story.
