21 : 35 . Katy looked at the clock and was getting really worried about Emily and Jason . They should have been home hours ago. She looked outside the window. Really . She thought to herself. There they were dancing in the middle of the street and she was stressing herself out about them. She had this sudden feeling of anger. She looked outside the window again. She smiled at her friend. In the 7 years Katy knew Emily she had never seen her this happy. She loved Emily so much and wanted nothing but happiness for her. Sometimes she wished she would open up to her as she does to Jason. She knows Emily tells him much more than she has ever done with her. She could never understand why. Katy has always been there for her. She knew she had a lot of issues with her parents but that's about all she knew.
But Emily was not the only one keeping secrets . Katy looked over to her phone. Nothing. Her arms were starting to itch. She tried her best not to scratch. He was doing this just to get to her. She has the money . But this one is not after the money he only wants her. She always knew she was pretty but not pretty enough to obsessive over. Sometimes he scared her so much and each time she promised herself its over , never again. But for her the high was worth it. Every time she had it , it was like all her problems went away and she became the version of herself she actually liked. The one game for anything and anyone . The one everyone seemed to love so much more. The one who had no insucurities. And he was the only one who was able to give it to her.
23: 04. Katy was shaking uncontrollably . She picked up the phone and scrolled through her contacts. B. Brandon. Found him . She pressed call and the phone started ringing . " Brandon Hello . " he said mocking her. She was getting really pissed off. " Where the f**k are you , you said you'd be her at f*****g eight! " She yelled. " Well hi there sweet heart it's nice to hear your voice too . " he answered . " Cut the crap Brandon are you coming over or should I get someone else ? " She knew saying this would piss him off so much but she knew it was the only way to get him there quickly , she was just hoping he was still really into her , because it meant she still had a little bit of control. Even though deep down she was willing to do anything for the high. Anything. " Chill Katy , I'm on my way , I just had some business to attend to. Just make sure you're b***h ass roommate is not there when I get there . " He said . " She's sleeping over at her boyfriends house , so we're alone . " she said. Before she could say anything else he hung up the phone.
What work could he possibly be doing at 11 at night she thought to herself. She was kind of mad at him because he called Emily a b***h but she always knew they didn't like each other. Since day one when they both met him at the local bar one night Emily didn't like him. She warned Katy countless times to stay away but Katy always did what she was told not to do. The first time she got high with Brandon was just outside the bar and that night she felt like she was the life of the party . Everyone loved her. And it was all because of him. She knew what she was doing was wrong but you only life once so screw it right. Since the night at the bar she has been doing stronger and stronger drugs . Brandon told her not to go to hard but she didn't really care. One drug after the other she just kept going harder.
Katy wasn't the girl she always thought she was going to be . Her dream was always to have the perfect grades with the perfect boyfriend but things didn't work out. Instead Emily was living the life she had always dreamt of. It's not that Katy wasn't happy for her , it's just she wished it was her. Her wishful thinking suddenly interrupted by a familiar knock on the door. She turned around and almost jumped for joy. Finally she thought to herself. She rushed to open the door.
When she opened the door Brandon stood there in grey sweatpants and a black oversized t-shirt. In his hand he had a brown paper bag , she knew exactly what it was and her heart leaped for joy . She pulled him in by his arm and gave a giggle.
He stopped and took her hand , he tried to create a moment with her cause he wanted so much more. In the beginning she was just another girl he was trying to get hooked to make more money , just another rich girl. But along the way she did something to him , he didn't know when or where but it hit him hard. Brandon was never the type of guy to catch feelings but for her it was so different . And now all he wanted was for her to get sober. He hated seeing her so addicted , she didn't deserve it. But he knew the only way she would be with him was being addicted. He tried to stay away from her for as long as he could but it was one of the hardest things he had to do. He knew if she asked him to he would give her the world without hesitation no questions asked.
She took a hit and felt her heart beating faster and faster and then so slow she had to take a breath in . She could feel her pupils getting bigger. It felt like her senses were in overdrive , she felt everything , it felt as if she could feel her blood pumping inside her vanes . She looked studied her hands like it was the most interesting thing on earth He looked at her as if she was the most perfect human being , and to him she was more than enough , more than perfect and so much more than the money and drugs. That's why he was planning to get out of the drug business , for her . He wanted to show her the world he could give her and show her there was so much more than getting high to run away from all your problems.
