Weeks later and I was still miserable. The pills Mandy gave me were running out and I was thinking of giving her another call.
"So why is there a party on campus?" I asked Katherine. "It's Christmas Eve and isn't everyone suppose to leave?"
"You ask way too many questions." She said putting her heels on. "Have you told Kasey about you know who?"
"Now you're asking way too many questions." I said. I still hadn't moved back in with Kasey and I still didn't tell her anything about Jeremiah. I was still buying sleeping pills from Mandy though.
"Why aren't you getting dressed?" She asked me.
"I'm not up for partying." I answered.
"I'm not going alone." She told me. Mariah had left like most kids do for the holidays. Since I hated my family and barely had friends though I was spending it alone.
"I have nothing to wear." I said.
"Good thing I bought you a dress." She replied before throwing a red dress at me. I laid back on Mariah's bed holding in tears. I randomly cried hysterically.
"It'll take your mind off things, I promise." She said sighing. My phone beeped once again and it was Jeremiah for the thousandth time.
Jeremiah: Just meet with me and I'll explain. I love you.
I locked my phone again then turned it off. I couldn't meet with him yet, I wasn't ready.
"I'll go." I finally said before wiping my tears and getting up. I went into the bathroom and put on the dress Katherine gave me. It was a bit too sexy for Christmas.
"Katherine what is this?" I asked her walking out of the bathroom.

"Oooo I love it!" She yelled while clapping. "You pulling everyone tonight."
"This isn't Christmas like." I told her.
"So? This is college." She replied. "We're going to go out there and be sexy and fearless."
I started to smile at her and for the first time it was real. Then I felt bad for smiling I should be miserable right now. I should be facing this pain head on covering it up would make it worse. I felt nauseous for the millionth time and ran to the bathroom. I started throwing up into the toilet. I felt the tears running down my face as I stopped puking.
"Are you okay? You throw up a lot." Katherine said coming into the bathroom.
"I'm depressed." I admitted.
"Aw sweetie." She said bending down beside me. "I promise it'll get better."
