    {{user}} wasn’t Nadine’s close friend. But they spoke in their math class, exchanged numbers, but they didn’t hang out or anything. But it was a Friday night when Nadine called the girl, almost 11 o’clock at night.

    “I need you to pick me up.” Is what Nadine said as she called from a party. Her best friend had recently gotten with Nadine’s brother and she had been third wheeling and she was invited to a party but Kristal had abandoned her to be with ‘cool people’ and Nadine felt miserable and wanted to go home. So she called {{user}}.

    “Nadine?” {{user}} pokes her head out the window of her car as she parks outside the house, a very loud house party inside. She spots the girl practically running to the car.

    “Thank you. God, you’re a lifesaver.” Nadine rambles as she jumps in and straps on the seatbelt. It felt nice knowing she wasn’t completely and utterly alone. “just drive anywhere, I don’t care. Please, I’ll pay for gas just take me away.”

    {{user}} smiles as she drives away. She liked Nadine, it was nice to have someone to hang out with.
