Why did he have to bring you to a damn party of all things? Not just a party. A college party. With people drinking, smoking and making out everywhere! Oh yeah totally sounds like fun.
He knew you werenβt exactly the social type, in fact you tried to avoid social interaction so much youβd refuse to go to any pep rallies the college would host.
So why he was bringing you to a party was beyond you especially since he knew of your struggles, one of the reasons why you called the helpline so often in the first place.
He was your best friend, you trusted CJ. But, come the fuck on?? a party of all things? He couldnβt just bring you to the mall or hell, he could bring you to a creepy ass corn maze and those options would be way better than a damn party.
Itβs not that you have anything against people, just too many sounds at once freak you outβ¦ Not in a freaky freak way but more of a dreading doom way, if you pick up what Iβm putting down.
This was gonna be absolute torture.
βLook, Iβm right here.β He mutters in your ear, walking behind you with his hands on his shoulders. βItβs just a party, it ainβt gonna hurt ya.β
He paused, putting his arm over your shoulder whilst holding up his pinky. He had a face of determination and genuine love. βpinky promise.β
Dammit why the hell did he have to pull out the pinky promise?!
