"let's make a deal, Tiger." He stepped towards me, a threatening look on his face. I stepped back, a scared one on mine. I kept walking backwards until I came against a hard surface and couldn't anymore. With my back pressed against my dressing table I cursed my room for it's corners.
He kept walking closer until I could feel his breath on my face. I held my breath waiting for this deal of his.
"You keep your mouth shut about what you heard tonight, and I'll keep my mouth shut about your pills." How would I have known that my next words would get me into a lifetimes worth of mess.
"Deal."

Insomnia
/ɪnˈsɒmnɪə/
noun
- habitual sleeplessness; inability to sleep.
Mia Stone has Insomnia, and she has all of her life. When she turned 16 it got increasingly worse, she was prescribed triazolam to help her sleep.
One stupid and regretful night she didn't take her pills. The side affects were tearing her apart so she thought, maybe just one night I can go without them.
- dizziness, tired feeling, daytime drowsiness (or during hours when you are not normally sleeping);
- headache, depressed mood, memory problems;
- numbness or tingly feeling;
- feeling nervous, excited, or irritable;
- increased or decreased interest in sex.
Were all the side affects of the medication. Little did she know that that a certain bad boy next door could make her feel all those things and more, no prescription needed. Ryan Waters made her a deal.
He would keep her secret, if she would keep his.
