I take another gulp of my beer , I just want the stings of the words that Max said to me to go away .
" Time to go ." Dexter demands
" No You ain't the boss of me ." I reply I know he is only trying to help but but I don't want to leave .
"You know I have that molding gig in the morning ." He says
" So I don't ." I answer him back
He runs his fingers threw his brown hair . And let's out a breathe.
" Liv done went home ."he says
" So " I say
" You don't seem drunk how many drinks have you had ?" He asks
" This is my second ." I lie
It really is my 4thand I may have more but he don't need to know that .
" I guess I can ask somebody if you can ride home with them it is the 1 st party of the year ." He says and walks off
I tell him
" Thank you "and laugh . A few minutes later he walks back over and says
" Nathan will take you home ." He states
My heart races . What if Max is with him , how will that go ?
" It is only him and Jim knight ." Dexter says erasing my fears
and my heart and mind Relaxes .I would hate if Max was with him . Of course Max would probably hate it more . Max and Nathan is on the baseball team so the thought of them being here together was not far fetch either way I am happy they are not here together tonight.
After a hour of dancing and kind of making a new friend with a freshman named Solan who I know is only speaking to me because I am a senior but I don't care , Nathan walks over and asks me
" Are you ready to go ? "
" Yea sure ." I say I pretty much well sober up anyways .
As we reach Nathan's car Max is leaning on it . I stop in my tracks .
" No Jim was suppose to ride with you not Max ." I stutter
" Jim hooked up with some girl and left , Max needs a ride , it really shouldn't be a problem ." Nathan says
As we walk up anxiety is rushing threw me . I don't want Max to think I am here because I want to be around him .
" She is the girl you have to give a ride to " Max shouts
" Yes Dexter asked me to , it is not no big deal . " Nathan says and raising his hand like telling Max to calm down .
" Its not my choice trust me , I don't want to be in the same vehicle with you ." I shout And fold my arms like I am some spoiled toddler.
" Then don't I am sure there is some sober chick you can hitch a ride with . " he yells and moves his hands in the air
" I will just call a Uber Thanks though Nathan ." I say very calmly
" No we can't let a girl go alone in a Uber ." Max says even more calmly
" Then you call a Uber ." I say
Max looks at Nathan and back at me like he is weighing his options.
" No my account is messed up now " he stutters
" Whatever can we just leave wow y'all date for a short while now it is over maybe you liked each other but it was not love . You can be in a car together its not the end of the world ."
