Damon and I went to a bar after we ate.
We drunk a lot.
„Oi Ayla!"
Damon shouts my name over the loud music.
„What is it?"
"I think I'll go home. I have stuff to do, you know?"
"Okay make sure you come home safe!"
The alcohol makes my tongue feel heavy.
The place is small and filled with drunk and stoned people.
I dance with random people in the crowd and drink beer.
Suddenly I see Alex.
He dances with a young woman.
She's hot.
Way hotter then me.
A shower of numbness hits me.
I'm nothing special at all.
Alex sees me and winks halfhearted and try not to cry.
Fuck it hurts seeing him with someone else.
I turn away from him and throw my arms around some guy who has been watching me for some time now.
"Hey Cutie!"
His breath smells of alcohol.
"Hey handsome."
I look over my shoulder and see Alex staring at me.
"Wanna have fun?"
He takes a little plastic bag out of his pocket with pills in it.
"Sure."
He takes one out and looks at me with a weird look.
I open my mouth, stretch my tongue out and he places the pill on my tongue.
This is a bad idea.
A really bad idea.
He puts his hands around my hips and I get a uncomfortable feeling in my tummy.
After some minutes my sight gets blurry.
I feel the guy dragging me towards the toilets.
I try to free myself but I'm to weak, so I try shouting for help.
What on earth did I take?
Somebody puts his hand on my shoulder and starts shouting.
I think it's Alex.
Everything around me starts spinning.
Alex punches the bloke in his face.
People are screaming something.
I'm scared.
The bouncer comes and clears the scene.
Alex tries talking to me but I can't understand a thing.
Then there's nothing.

I open my eyes.
My head hurts like some one stabbed thousands of needles in it.
Everything is blurred.
A small light burns next to me.
I'm laying in a big, cozy bed.
Someone lays besides me.
"H-hel-lo?"
My voice is cracking and my throat is sore and dry.
"Oh hey, how are you feeling?"
The someone is called Alex.
He sounds sleepy.
"My head hurts badly. What happened?"
"I explain it to you later. I'll get you an aspirin first. Okay?"
I nod wich makes my headache worse.
He gets up and goes in his kitchen.
What happened?
I was with Damon and we were in a club.
Then there's a big hole.
Alex comes back and gives me a glass of milky water.
It tastes bitter because of the medicine.
"Thanks, Alex. Why are you doing this all for me even though I'm such a dick to you?"
"Nah you're not a dick. You know... I really like you and I'm sorry I hurt you with what I said.
It was stupid."
He sits next to me on the edge of his bed.
I look up in his dark eyes and hug his side.
I close my eyes and he lays his arm around me.
"I like you too."
