well it's 4pm now so I'm gonna get ready
Since I have to be here then I have to get ready and face them. I'll just simply tell them what happened and tell them I want to forget. I guess I'll take a shower and find something to wear.
I threw on jeans and a T-shirt. It's about 6 so I walked to Scott's house. I'm the last to show up so everyone's ready raving. "Hey everyone!" I yelled. Everyone cheered. "Pizza's here!" Malia yelled once she heard the doorbell. She went up and brought it in.
We all grabbed a few slices and random junk food. "Guys before the night goes on I want to tell you all something." I cower down in slight fear. "Theo and I broke up last night." I get it out and continue eating my pizza. Lydia ran up to me and hugged me. "Liam I'm so sorry." Scott genuinely apologized. I waved it off. "It's fine. We got into a huge argument and hurtful words were exchanged and it's over but I want to forget it." I simply said.
"Liam you should talk about it." Mason whispered. "I said I want to forget okay?" I firmly said. They all backed off and apologized.
I needed to be firm about it so they could back off. I grab my phone and connect it to the speaker. I play upbeat music and start dancing. Everyone laughs and gets up and starts dancing with me.
I run around dancing and eating pizza. I take a moment and step outside. I look out at the stars. Mason walks outside next to me. "Just a few months ago we were standing out here and you were wondering if Theo was thinking about you." Mason laughs. I chuckle. "Man it's been a long road since then." I laugh even more. I continue laughing to the point where Mason should be worried. I start crying in the middle of laughing.
"Liam?" Mason looked scared and grabbed my shoulders. He shook them lightly and pulled me in for a tight hug. "H-he thought I didn't love him anymore." I burst out in the middle of my loud sobs.
"That isn't true is it?" Mason softly asked me.
"No o-of course not. I did it because I love him Mason." Still crying, I make no sense.
"Liam why would you do it?" Mason questions.
"He did something bad and I knew if we stayed together we'd keep fighting and it would get worse. I had to do it." I cried out. No one understands why I had to do it. They don't get it. No one does except for me.
I quickly wipe away my tears and Mason escorts me inside. "Where's the vodka?" I am quick to ask. "Maybe you shouldn't." Scott looked worried. "No I need it." I looked around and found the bottle with some wolfsbane. I dropped some in and took a big sip. A little more then a sip. I need to forget.
Everyone started to drink and we all got crazy.
"Shit guys we have school tomorrow!" Scott yelled out. We all quickly tried to sober up and ran to our own homes.
It was 1am so I tried to be able to fall asleep. I ran up to my room and went in my bad. I stay up worried. I don't even think I'll be able to handle seeing Theo tomorrow.
I try to fall asleep and eventually drift off.

I woke up to my alarm blaring loudly along with an equally annoying headache. I lazily walk to the shower and turn it on. I know I'll stay in here forever so I turn it slightly cold. Once I start hustling I'm about ready for school.
I run downstairs and grab a breakfast bar to eat on my way to school. I put my earbuds in and walk to school.
I'm almost late and just walk into class right away. I see Corey and sat down next to him. So far so good. Right?
