Your P.O.V.
I had several missed calls from Toni, which I'd been ignoring all day long.
The weather was so depressing on my way home with rain drenching my clothes. But in a magical way, the raining suddenly stopped as soon as I entered my house.
"Of course." I scoffed; how typical.
The tears stung in my eyes as I was trying to surpress them from coming out. God, I felt like shit. I was also surpressing my feelings, which pretty much became a habit for me that day. My eyes scanned the kitchen and I found the cup of coffee from that morning, still standing there, cold now of course. I poored the liquid into the sink and put the cup in the dishwasher before hopping in the shower.

My mind was blurry still.
And my thoughts didn't make any sense.
The water felt good though, sending chills down my body the way Veronica used to.
But no one was as much on my mind as Cheryl was. 
I really cared for her and I was so sure that she still had feelings for me just as I still had feelings for her.
No one could just stop loving someone else over day, right?
That was the reason why I crashed her party in the first place, why I decided to talk to her that night.
That was the reason why I wanted to see her again, look her in the eyes and tell her how wrong I was.
Could I still make this right?

I texted Toni and told her that she didn't have to pick me up before the party. If I was going, I wanted to arrive alone. And walking to Thornhill could ease my mind a little too.
My phone had been vibrating a lot, but I really didn't want to know what Toni was saying. I put my head on my pillow, just stared at the ceiling, and waited until I fell asleep. That's what I always did; sleep. Whenever I felt miserable or something really pissed me off, it didn't matter really, cus I'd just sleep and would hope that when I woke up everything'd be better. It never was though. Nothing would change, but at least I had a little more energy then to do something about it.
But that day when I woke up again, the world was exactly the same as it was before. But I wasn't. Feeling thirsty I went downstairs to get a glass of water.
Then it dawned on me; my mom left her bottle of wine at home. She'd usually take it to work on weekends, because her colleagues always liked to have a little party on friday night. My mom didn't like parties at all, but she was a good friend though.
My phone vibrated again, indicating that someone texted me for the hundredst time that day. I put the mouth of the bottle to my lips and drank the red wine like it was the water I initially came downstairs for. The alcohol left a burning sensation in the back of my throat, but I drank through it. It started to feel good after a couple more sips though and before I knew it I had finished the entire bottle of wine.
I turned the speakers in the living room up and put on 'My Dilemma' by Selena Gomez.

"And I tell myself to run from you, but I find myself attracted.
To my dilemma, my dilemma;
It's you."

(A/N; guys I'm obsessed with a couple Selena Gomez songs lately, so please forgive me.)
'Bang Bang Bang' came on which only made me scream along even harder. I jumped on the sofa, using my hairbrush as a microphone singing out every single word.
It was an entire world tour y'all.

"Bang bang bang I'm breaking in!
Stealing all my love back, giving it to him.
Bang bang bang this time I win.
I thought your love was all that,
until I let him in."

The lyrics are pretty hetero, but oh well. Little did I know that Toni was watching me the entire time as I danced on the table like a real superstar. I was having a real lit party for myself! when the music suddenly stopped, almost making me fall off the table. The room was spinning even more now, which I only noticed right when the music stopped playing. I then looked up to see Toni standing there, baffled with what was happening in front of her.
"Topaz!" I jumped off the table and straight in her arms. The girl barely managed to keep her balance as I hung onto her like a monkey.
"God, you reek of alcohol." She loosened my arms that were draped around her neck and put me down on the couch. I was missing the music already wow, but then I remembered;
"Toni we need to go! The party is starting soon." I told her, searching for my phone.
"I don't think you should go." Ok Toni was being a real buzzkill.
"Whatttt, Toni no. I have to go pleaseee." It took a while before Toni gave into my whining. She insisted on taking me to the party though, like the good bestfriend that she is. I thanked her a hundred times, jumping around the room like a little kid that just got candy from it's mother. Toni rolled her eyes at me and made sure we got everything before leaving my house. I gave her my phone sine it wasn't safe to stay with my drunk ass.
