"Have you been doing better?" Asked Josh. "I guess.." Replied Bolt. Josh gave him a sympathetic smile and hugged him. Bolt began to feel warm inside and so he hugged him back and smiled. They pulled away from the hug soon after and both followed Tom into Adam's house for the party. They joked around and giggled in excitement. Tom's face lit up when she saw Adam so she ran up and hugged her, after that they started a conversation. "Well, Tom's gone. You can stay with me if you want" Said Josh. Bolt gasped and smiled and let out a small 'bzzt!' Josh blushed a bit but got the feelings off of him quickly. They sat at a table they found and laughed and joked around together, so soon Josh said, "Can we go to the dance floor?" With a cute little smile to make Bolt say yes, which he was a sucker for. "Sure I guess" Bolt said with a chuckle. Josh giggled and took Bolt's hand and ran to the dance floor. They both were having fun, Bolt felt like his bond with Josh became stronger and stronger with each and every second and moment they had together. Josh held both of Bolt's hands and they began to dance together. After a while of dancing they both got tired. "Let's go get a drink, there's a bar down the street." Said Bolt. Josh nodded his head and followed Bolt to the bar. Once they finally arrived, Bolt got himself a water since he wasn't a drinker. Josh decided to get alcohol for himself. "You sure that's a good idea?" Asked Bolt. "Pff, yeah I'll be fineee" Replied Josh. They talked and drank, though Josh drank a bit too much and got drunk. Josh giggled and got closer and closer to Bolt, and soon, Josh pulled Bolt into a kiss. Josh pulled away and laughed some more but Bolt stayed quiet. His face flushed, "Uh.. w-we should probably get going.." He said with a stutter, but Josh didn't listen. Bolt groaned and pulled the drunk male out of his seat and carried him out of the bar. Bolt thought he wasn't about to bring him back into the party and probably do something stupid and possibly get hurt and he wasn't going to let him walk home alone at one in the morning, so he decided he was going to bring him to his house. Bolt opened his front door and went into his room and placed Josh on his bed, he was already asleep. Bolt smiled a bit and decided he would sleep on the sofa in the living room. He laid down and fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.
Josh woke up and rubbed his eyes. He groaned and held his head in pain. He realized he wasn't at home so he looked around and saw Bolt stand up from a desk. "Hey Josh." Bolt said with a smile as he walked towards Josh, "Need any pills?" Bolt asked. Josh nodded as he let out a small whimper. Bolt gave him a small sympathetic look as he handed him a glass of water and a pill for his headache. "Thanks.." Josh mumbled. He popped the pill into his mouth and got up from Bolt's bed. "Hey uh, did I do anything stupid last night?" Josh asked. Bolt shook his head "nah." Josh let out a small sigh of relief. A ringing sound could be heard coming from Bolt's phone. Bolt gave an angry look and answered the phone as he walked to another room. "What do you want?" He said. Josh sat down on a stool in the room and he looked down at the floor as he heard Bolt screaming. He didn't like the sound of his friend being angry so he held back some tears. "You fucking slut! Why don't you just run away with him?!" Bolt yelled. Josh clutched his fists and wiped away a tear. He wondered who Bolt was screaming at but it was most likely his girlfriend. Josh realized Bolt got silent and he started to worry a bit until Bolt finally came back into the room. Josh let out a silent relieved chuckle. He stood up and walked up to Bolt. "Hey are you okay what's wrong?" Said Josh in a worried tone. Bolt's clenched his fist and looked down at the floor. He held his eyes shut causing a tear to roll down his cheek. He looked at Josh dead in the eye and punched him. "When will you ever learn!?" Bolt yelled. His anger went away as it turned into shock. Josh looked at Bolt in fear. "J-Josh I'm sorry.." Said Bolt in almost a whisper. His voice was shaking as well as his body. Josh only looked down at the floor and left the house. Bolt stood there shaking, still in shock. He looked down at his hands and cried. "I fucked up again, just like I always do.." He said to himself. Time only seemed like a myth at this point. All of existence left him. The only thing left was his regrets, his past, and his tears.
