"Aren't you excited for the party tonight babe? Babe? Are you listening?" My boyfriend Alex asked me.
"Um yeah. Yeah I guess." I replied. We were on our way to the cabin where the party was at. We are an hour into the two hour car drive, and Alex has literally not shut up sense we have sat in the car. This is one of the things that urked me about my boyfriend. He talked all the time. We could never just sit, and enjoy each other's company.
"Yeah me too. We are going to have so much fun. Don't drink too much tonight okay babe, I don't want to be the only one sober." That was another thing about Alex. The most he will ever drink is one beer, maybe one or two shots of vodka, never enough to really get drunk. I mean, I don't really care that he doesn't like to drink, smoke, or anything like that, but I do care that he is a prude about it.
"Alex, I'm not going to make any promises. I haven't gotten really shit faced sense we first started dating." That is actually how Alex and I met. Eight months ago at a party, I was totally fucked. Alex found me in the bathroom barfing my guts out. My friends were already passed out, so he cared for me and drove me home the next day. We instantly connected. But ever sense then the most I have done was smoke a few blunts.
"Fuck Carter. I don't want a repeat of what happened the night we met, you looked miserable."
"Alex, I will be fine. I will have loads of friends there, you don't even have to stay the whole time." I hope it isn't shitty of me to actually want him to leave early.
"I want to spend time with you though." He was pouting. This is something he does a lot.
"Alex, we are together all the time. I can take care of myself sometimes. I'm a big girl."
"Okay okay. I am still not leaving you there alone though."
"Alright. Can you promise me one thing though?"
"Depends. What do you want me to promise you?"
"Don't be up my ass the whole night. It is my friend's birthday. I want to spend time with her. I almost never see her anymore." I really just want one night where I can be myself. I know I shouldn't feel this way around my boyfriend. I haven't always felt this way around him. Just these past couple of months. I'm not actually sure why I have been feeling this way. We just aren't connecting like we used to.
He groaned, "Carter what am I supposed to do? I will barley know anyone there." He is getting a little frustrated.
"The whole school will be there, you are bound to know someone."
"So I am going to go to your friend's party, and I'm going to pretend that I don't even know you?!"
"No. We are going to be together. I don't know Alex. I just want to be independent sometimes." The tension in the car grew stronger. I can see by the look on Alex's face that my words hurt him. He has always been very sensitive.
"I can lay off a little. I don't always need you by my side." I know he wants me to say sorry, or say that I didn't mean anything I had said. But I did mean it, I didn't want to hang out with him all that much tonight. I want to have fun with my friends, and if he is with me I know that won't happen.
"Good. Then it's decided. You will give me a little space tonight."
We didn't speak anymore the rest of the car ride to the cabin. When we arrived to the cabin there was already kids wobbling around in the front yard. It was only six o'clock and there was a good amount of people already plastered. Tonight is going to be fun.
