Damn

One day I saw this guy from across the room at a party. I thought to myself "Damn. he's cute." I walked over to talk to him, which was weird since I was usually really shy. We got to talking. He seemed genuinely interested. He had a golden halo of hair that made him seem like an angel with eyes the color of chocolate brownies. He asked me for my number and I complied. Then he gave me this smile that made my heart melt. I fell for him instantly. Hard. But I didn't know he wouldn't be there to catch me.

One day Thomas called me up. He asked if I wanted to go out. I said yes, trying to contain the excitement. We went out to eat at a nice restaurant. I noticed how pink and perfect his lips were and how his voice sounded like music. I thought "Damn. He's hot." He offered me a shot and I said yes. He offered me another and I said yes. Shot after shot I drank, losing all sense of reality. Before I knew it, I was in his apartment. Lips touched my neck, hands roamed my body. He asked me if I was okay with this and I said yes. Of course I wanted this. Clothes were off in a matter of minutes. I woke up the next morning with a pounding head. I smiled when I remembered last night. The way he touched me made me feel so... Alive.

I left the apartment before he woke up and went home. I got a call later saying he'd give me a call when he wanted to meet up again. 2 weeks later I got a phone call from him. I was surprised he took so long to call but happy nonetheless. We met up, got drunk, and repeated the process. I was a little shocked when he didn't ask me about how I was doing. Or tell me how he was. We just got drunk and hooked up. Nothing more, nothing less. The next morning when I didn't leave right away he looked annoyed. Left when he said that he had a few coworkers he was meeting up with. I knew he was lying and thought "Damn. What did I do?"

A few days later I saw him walking in the streets, a girl holding his hand. They stop in front of a store and share a passionate kiss. My chest started to ache and tears welled in my eyes. I ran home and tried to think of a reasonable explanation. The same day he called me and asked me to come over. I thought that when I went over there he was going to break up the weird relationship we had but instead he grabbed my waist and kissed me. I asked who the girl was and he said nobody. That seemed to be good enough for me.

A month went by and he hadn't called me. I got nervous and went to his apartment. I knocked on his door and the girl I saw with Thomas opened the door. She wasn't wearing anything other than one of his shirts that went down to her mid thigh. "Is Thomas here?" I asked, trying to stay calm. "No he's in the shower. Who are you?" She answered. 'Nobody important." I said and left. How could I be so stupid. He didn't love me. He didn't care about me. Those empty words he whispered in my ear to make me want him. Those insincere compliments to get me in bed. Those eyes I once thought were innocent and lovable where now filled with poisonous lies. "Damn. How could I be so stupid?"
