  I woke up feeling groggy.  I felt heavy, weak, droopy.  I felt like crap.
  I got up, upset at the fact that I couldn't go back to sleep.  I got out of my bed and put on a sweater and slippers, since it was way to cold.  I put my phone in my pocket and sniffed the sweater.  It still smelled like him.  Of course it did.
  I teared up at the thought of him and let the tears flow from my eyes.
  "Ugh!" I shouted and wiped my eyes.  I put in my headphones and blasted my music at its loudest, ignoring my thoughts.
  As XXXTENTACION screamed in my ears about heartbreak and depressing topics I picked up my laptop and made my way down stairs.
  "I know you're somewhere, somewhere!" I shouted, since no one was around.  I sat my laptop on my kitchen table and opened it up.  I logged on and went to start my coffee.  I made toast since I didn't have an appetite.
  I logged on to Twitter and saw tweet after tweet someone was talking about Brennens tweets.  Especially the one talking about Colby and I.  I unblocked Brennen to see what was going on then blocked him again, being to overwhelmed by the comments.
Aliceismine: BrennenTaylor I knew he was bad news!
BrennensBae: BrennenTaylor Expose him!
  MsBrock: BrennenTaylor Can we just stop assuming something went wrong?  She hasn't posted anything yet so stop being drama hungry!
  Calicetrash42: BrennenTaylor Shit!  Alice blocked you?!
  I exited twitter and went on to Instagram.  Same thing.
  I left social media and went back to work.  I edited my video for Thursday and dreaded it.
  I heard my door open and close.  I didn't look away from my phone knowing who it was.
  "Hello Love." Alissa said.  I looked up from my laptop and say she had chocolate, gummy worms, ice cream, and coffee. 
  "Hello." I sniffled.  She placed the ice cream in the freezer and sat across from me.
  "How are you?  What are you listening to?"
  "X." I sighed.  She turned off the music and passed me the gummy worms.  She gave me a half smile and rubbed my hand.  I covered my face with my hands and cried, or sobbed, in front of her.
  "Hun don't cry." She said getting up.  She rubbed my back in circles.
  "I'm such an idiot!  How did I not see it.  The random new followers and likes I gave and the tags and comments.  And they were all on Colby's and Brennens and Colby was the only person in my house!" I rambled on and on about how much of and idiot I've been.
  "Hey your not an idiot!  He is, okay.  Him and Brennen.  Come on get ready."
  "Why?" I said drying my tears.
  "We are going out tonight..."
  "No, No, No, No, No!"
  "Banks found the cool spot and were going!"
  "This is too much I hate this." I said shoving a ton of gummy worms in my mouth.



  I got out of the shower and dried off.  I blow dried my hair and and put on my underwear.  I put on a pair of jeans and a nice blouse.  I looked in the mirror and nodded.  I looked decent.
  I heard a knock on my door and looked at my watch.  It wasn't 8 yet.
  I walked down the stairs and put in my last hoop earring, then opened the door.
  "It's not even 8 yet." I said.  I looked up and was face to face with Colby.
  "Alice...hey." He said.  I stood in shock and raised an eyebrow.
  "What are you doing here?" I asked.
  "I came here to talk."  He walked In and closed the door behind himself. "Listen I'm so sorry Alice.  At first I was upset at the post!  I lost so many followers and I just wanted them back.  Brennen gave me the idea and I went with it."
  "Colby I don't wanna talk about this right now.  I'm leaving soon."
  "Where are you going?" He asked.
  I hesitated for a moment then told him. "I'm going out. To some club."
"Club? That's doesn't really seem like your thing. Alcohol everywhere? Very sweaty? Gross people?"
"I'm looking at one now." I rolled my eyes opening the door. "Out."
"What? No." He said closing the door again. "I'm not leaving until you talk to me."
"Well I'm not letting you stay the night now come on." I said opening it up again.
"Please Alice!" He yelled. He went to hold my hand but I pulled them back. He gave me a hurt look which broke my heart even more.
"Get out. Now." I repeated. He looked at me then at the couch. He walked over and sat down and crossed his arms.
I sighed and slammed the door. I ran up the stairs and opened the closet. I grabbed my bat and ran back down. Colby's eyes bulged out of his socket and he rises from his seat.
"You won't hit me." He said with a cocky attitude.
"Wanna bet?" I then swung my bat at him missing his head.
"You actually tried to hit me?!" He gasped.
"Yeah I missed your head let's see if I can get your sack." I said winding up my bat. He dodged my swing and ran out of the house.
I locked the door and groaned. I placed my back on the door and slid down it. I looked at the time and it's still not close to 8.
I looked at the wine on my kitchen table and examined it.
"A little wouldn't hurt." I sighed.
Got up and walked over to the bottle. I opened it up and didn't bother to get a cup. I took a few swigs and sat on my phone. Waiting for 8 o'clock to come.
