kali uchis- dead to me
3:40 AM
LOCATION: Hotel

I fix my pillow and clear my throat. i sigh. i sit up. i made sure not to wake up anyone. i slid out of the bed and walked onto the balcony. I look out at the city nearby. the bright lights from the skyline made my adrenaline rush for some reason. i hear a door open nearby. someone was coming onto the balcony. A breeze came by and whipped me in the face. "it's pretty cold to be out here.." he said. "I know." i respond. he stands next to me. it was pretty dark,only a bit of light to make out it was one of the boys,obviously not james. he wouldn't step out here in this cold for a second. "did you enjoy the music festival?" he asks. "Yeah,It was really cool.". The voice was raspy,it had to be,plus i saw no earring. "The kid cudi set was my favourite." he says. "Yeah..". I thought he didn't like kid cudi. "What about the neighbourhood set?" i ask. "It was okay.." He says annoyed. He fucking loves the neighbourhood..he's probably tired. "This skyline is beautiful." i say,admiring the shining lights from the skyscrapers. "Definitely..." he agrees. "Like someone i know.." he mumbles almost inaudible under his breath. "Can i ask you something?" He asks. "Sure." "How much self-esteem do you have?". It was an odd question. "A decent amount i guess...not much...i'm extremely insecure..i mean you know-" "You should have high self-esteem...you've got the whole package.". "Really?" i ask. "Really." he says. i look up at him. "Whats the whole package mean?" i ask confused. "Intelligence,Kindness....beauty." he says,looking back at me. i blush up. "Thanks...that means so much to me.."
"It's just the truth....i've wanted to say that for a really long time.." he says. i blush up. he hugs me. i feel something cold touch me. it was dangling. i ignored it i guess. He stares at me. He quickly kissed me. I,confused grab the balcony railing and lean against it for balance. He lets go, and smiles. I smile back. I hear the door open. A guy steps out. I look closely. He had studs on. I looked at the person in front of me. I see the illuminating earring. I nearly shit myself. i cover my mouth and ran off the balcony. I ran into the hallway and grabbed my inhaler out my pocket. i pumped it. I looked at my phone and saw it was 4:00 AM. i sighed. "I knew something seemed off...". I hear someone run down the hall and run into a closet nearby. i peek out the door. I see nobody. i sigh and open the door. i walk out. "What happend?" a voice asked. i jumped and turned. Ethan was standing there. "I-I-I". "Are you okay drew?" he asks. "I...I accidentally kissed grayson thinking it was you and im really sorry because i sorta feel like a slut." i spit out. He frozes. "Can i just ask how the fuck that happend?" he asks. "I don't know okay!?" i yell. He shushes me. "sorry..". "Your not a slut,and it was a mistake...but him......he always does this shit..." he says firmly. He grabs my hand and rushes off. "Where are we going!?" i ask. "To get revenge." he says. "For what?" i ask. "You'll see." he says.
