The sudden and unexpected death of Toni's last family member shakes her deeper than ever. She begins to rely on risking herself and drinking not to think about it. She doesn't ever seem to be content without a drink in her hand. Will a sudden encou...
Hola putas. I know that it has been a while but I came back. I am not dead.
. . .
"You got food in this joint?" I ask accepting the hunger in my stomach realising I hadn't eaten for a while. I begin sneezing in a continuous sequence. When the fit was over I couldn't open my eyes because it burned
"mmmmm" I say groaning in pain.
"Ah shit" The beautiful girl got a wet cloth and put it on my head.
"Is there anyone that you can call to let them know where you are?" she said looking concerned. I just looked at her for a second and I realised something.
"As much as I would be fine with calling you beautiful, I still want to know what your name is honey. I mean, you don't even know my name."
"I know what your name is. I mean how could I not. You are one of the most famous people in the continent and well known around the world. So yeah from the moment I saw you I knew who you were." I felt hurt by this. Did she only save me because of my money and fame.
"Oh so you only came to talk to me because I am famous." I asked and she looked paniced and said
"No. No. In fact it was on purpose that I didn't call you by your name because I thought you would be tired of people like that." I looked at her and before I could say something in response she interupted.
"You changed the subject. Who can I call for you."
"Well I live with my two best friends so I will call them and you can talk. Because knowing them, the minute they hear that I fainted I am done for." I unlocked my phone and called Asia.

End of phone call
I hung up the phone before they could object. I sat back on the bed. And I smirked.
"So. Mika Thompson huh. Your name feels good on my tongue." I said. She blushed but then composed herself.
"Yup. So one of your conquests?"
"Uh I guess this is the part when I tell you why I conquests" I said rolling my eyes.
"Yes it is" I huffed and she lightly pushed me and excliamed
"I saved your bloody life"
"I didn't ask you to. I would be perfectly fine dead."
"Don't say things like that."
I look at her for a second and her face never faltered. She really wanted to know
"Around 4 months ago my brother died in a car crash and it was basically my fault. Now I drink and sleep with girls every night. I don't wanna talk about it anymore."
I look away from her. Suddenly I am wrapped in warmth. I look down and Mika has her arms wrapped around me in a tight hug.
"Its okay" I smile. I pull back and take the vulnerable look off my face. I sit back and close my eyes. We sit in silence for a minute as I think
"It smells so good in here." I say. I look at her and she was staring at the tattoo on my neck. She reaches out to touch it and I let her.
"What is it."
I pull the jumper I'm wearing down more to show her the rest of it.

(But streching across my collar bone and shoulder)
"It is a Taurus Bull. My birthday is May 1st. I always liked them because Taurus means bull in a china shop. They ruin everything around them and charge when they see red. I always thought I was like that, from a young age I was known for fighting and breaking thing when I am angry. So it symbols me in more than one way." I say watching her the whole time. I watch her as she runs her fingers along it. Her fingers reach further and further up my neck, she turns my head.
"What about this?" she asks her fingers underneath my ear.
That is where a lotus flower rests.

"In Buddhism it mean enlightenment. It also symbols the light in darkness. I got it after my brother died. He was my light in the darkness and now he is gone."
She smiles up at me and touches it again.
"I like that it has a meaning."
"Yeah I don't know why but I feel like if I am going to have a permanent mark on my it should mean something, if it doesn't mean anything I might as well just draw it on with a maker."
"That is cool."
She stares at me for a while as if I was interesting. It made me feel like she could see the real me, I didn't like that she made me feel safe. So I looked away from her deep brown eyes. I took a deep breath.
"Well if I am going to be there all day. I better have some fun." I jumped up.
Mika laughed. I looked down at myself and saw my legs coming out of the bottom of a large fluffy hoodie thingy. I huffed.
"I still look good. So shut the fuck up." And walked out the room, with my head held high.
