I shove my hands in the pocket of my hoodie as I walk down the dark streets- my hands stinging because of cuts in them from the glass I had broken.

A lit up bar sign catches my eye as I walk slowly- I shouldn't... but what's one more drink?

I tug my hood off as I walk inside- ignoring the eyes on me as I sit down at the bar, ordering a beer and tapping my fingers on the counter impatiently.

"Thank you." I grumble to the lady behind the counter as she hands me the bottle, grabbing it from her and taking a swig of it.

A few minutes later it's empty- and suddenly, I feel like I can't stop.

I order three shots and down all of them within a minute, my throat burning as the acidic liquid goes down it.

The room turns fuzzy and my mind is clouded over as I rest my head in my hands, feeling the alcohol running through my veins.

JJ's POV
I sigh as I look at the destroyed car in front of me, running my hand through my hair and shaking my head.

"You can all go back to the party now, show's over." I mumble in an annoyed tone, everyone making comments to each other and filing back inside the house.

I kick a piece of glass that was on the ground in front of me, pulling out my phone and dialling Simon's number- just to have it go straight to voicemail.

"Fuck me." I sigh out and tug harshly on my hair- regret filling me as I start to sober up.

An hour ago I was kissing Simon- and everything was perfect.

Then I had to go and fuck it all up.

As soon as I walk into the smoke filled bar something feels off- I just came here to let off some steam, but now it doesn't feel right.

I look around the dark place and sigh, shaking my head- I'm going crazy.

I sit down at the bar and order a shot- the lady pouring it and setting it down on the counter in front of me.

I down it easily before ordering another one, quiet music filling my ears as I look around the small establishment.

I'm about to take my phone out and try to call Simon again, but then I recognise the familiar tall blonde standing in the corner of the same place I'm in.

I sigh in relief as I stand up and go to walk over to him- but immediately stopping as I see what's happening in front of me.

Simons lips are locked with another guy- slightly shorter than him with black hair and a small stubble on his face.

The blonde was pushed up against the wall as he made out with the other guy, their bodies basically flush together.

I clench my fists by my side as I watch them- I don't know what comes over me, but suddenly I'm walking over to them with anger radiating off of me.

I pull the guy off of Simon and watch as he looks disoriented, grabbing his shirt in my hand before connecting my fist with his jaw.

He's taken aback for a second before he lunges at me- knocking me back as he throws a punch at my stomach.

I groan in pain before kicking him back away from me- punching him hard enough square in his face to knock him to the floor.

"JJ! Stop!" I ignore Simon's yells as I kick the man in his side- giving no mercy as I hear him yelling out in agony.

I lean down and punch him again- just to receive a one in response straight to my nose, hard enough to make it bleed.

Suddenly strong arms are wrapped around me after I throw another punch- pulling me off of him and out of the bar.
