Its been weeks. Its been weeks since Phil and I talked. He won't even look at me anymore. Each time we'd run into each other, he'd just roll his eyes and leave. I guess I shouldn't blame him because me and my stubborn personality have been doing the same thing he has. Its just so irritating.
God, what am I doing with my life? I tried so hard to get Phil to like me but all he did was push me away. It feels just like my human life. I was always wanting people who would never want me back, and I thought shutting off all my emotions would help with that. It did for awhile, but even then it still got lonely every now and again. But when it got lonely I would drown my sorrow in someone else, just like I did with Anthony. The only difference between Anthony and everyone else was he is a vampire and he got attached.
No. Stop. I'm not going to do anything else sad like that. No way.
I quickly rake through my thoughts to try and think of something to do. Suddenly a thought comes to mind. With one swift movement, I'm out of the bed and running down the stairs. Shaun is doing an all night-er and I think Phil is staying somewhere else tonight. I don't know where he'd be staying but its nearly midnight and he isn't home so I guess he must be going somewhere.
Once I get downstairs, I head straight towards the cabinet I'd seen various times without actually getting anything out of it. The liquor cabinet had so many different types of bottles littering it, I don't think they'd notice if I took twenty bottles out of it. I'll just stick with three instead though.
I grab one bottle of scotch and two of Bourbon and head straight to the living room. At least I can say I won't be wasting my night.
Oh my God this is too much! Undisclosed Desires by Muse is blaring through the over priced sound system they'd put into the living room as I dance around with one of the nearly empty bottles in my hand and a goofy smile on my face.
My feet have fallen out from underneath me about fifteen times total tonight, but that's okay. Everything is okay.
I close my eyes as I take the last swig left in the bottle. "Its all gone." My voice is laced in disappointment.
Before I can even try to go get another, I hear keys in the door. Who could that be? So in order to find out who it is, I speed over and open it before it can be opened by whoever is on the other side. I lean against the door frame with a grin on my face until I see who it actually is. Phil. A huge smile spreads across my lips now. "Phil!"
Those bright blue eyes go wide as can get when he looks at me before sinking right back down to the bored expression he'd had before. Then his eyes go towards the bottle in my hand and back up at me again. "Are you drunk?" He raises one of his eyebrows questioningly at me.
I just press my lips together as I look up at him with big eyes. "Maybe." That one word comes out way more childish sounding than I'd planned, but that's okay.
Phil just rolls his eyes and pushes me back so that he can step through the door and then shut it tightly behind him. "I can't believe you raided my dad's liquor cabinet, Dan." He shoots a glare at me while taking his shoes off as well.
"Oh come on Phil, I'm just trying to have some fun." I giggle at him and lean against the wall with a huge smile on my face. This is such a blissful feeling.
Just then, I hear something that makes me smile even wider, if that's even possible. "I Love You Baby" by Frank Sinatra starts blaring through the speakers of his house. This was probably my favorite song ever up until the point where rock and roll was a thing. "Oh my god! Phil, dance with me!"
His eye brows shoot up. "No. Dan, no. I don't dan-"
But before he can finish, I'm grabbing his hand and pulling him towards me. "You're just too good to be true. Can't take my eyes off of youuu." I coo into his ear before spinning him around the living room.
