“Holy fuck, {{user}},” I snap, cutting off your sentence as I turn my body to face you properly. I see your eyes widen and your body language visually startled by my outburst, but I don’t even think twice about it.

Normally, throughout our 6 or 7 months of dating, I would say I’m a perfect gentleman. I don’t raise my voice at you. I don’t call you names, even as a joke. I practically shower you with compliments on a daily basis, even if you’re wearing sweats with messy bedhead. I insist on paying when we’re out together, I went all out for Christmas a week ago, whatever and so on. I never snap at you like I just did.

Except right now I am incredibly drunk. Probably more drunk than I’ve ever been. It’s a damn miracle I’m even still standing in this crowded New Year’s eve party I insisted on bringing us to.

I don’t know why I did that. You hate parties and you hate alcohol. Guess I fucked up in more ways than one. Especially once my annoyance bubbled over at you.

“Stop asking me to go outside, stop asking when we can leave, stop asking me anything! Can’t you see I’m busy?” I yell at you, gesturing to my friends standing beside me. “Just- fuck, just go find someone else to annoy for ten goddamn minutes, okay?”
