After I had stopped crying, I wiped away my tears, and walked back into the bedroom where Lilly was listening to music. "Is everything okay?" She asked, turning to face me as I took a seat on the bed. "Yeah, everything's fine." I said, giving her a fake ensuring smile. "we can leave early if you want." She suggested, but I know how much this trip meant to her, and I'm not going to ruin this for her. "No it's okay, Everything is fine." I said, as I heard my stomach rumble. I hadn't eaten anything this morning. I walked over to the kitchen and made pancakes, slowly taking mini bites. I was starving but I could barely eat.

Everything has changed so much. Just a while ago I had moved into Harry's apartment. I remember my first day meeting Harry so clearly. He was exactly the same, angry, and rude. He will never change will he? Even if he does love me, he doesn't know how to show it. I just can't help but think, how would things have ended if I never met him?

I'm glad I met him, Harry has helped me realize so many things, I'm no longer that weak, naive girl everyone wanted to protect. I've learned from my mistakes, I know how to stand up for myself, I can speak up for the truth. I've grown from my mistakes, and that's all that matters. I see Harry for the way he really is, and I see others, the way no one else would think to see. I have realized that everyone has their own battles to fight, and everyone has something they worry about. I've realized the truth now.

Once I finished my pancakes, I cleaned up the dishes, and sat in the living room watching tv.

After thirty minutes or so Lilly said she wanted some fresh air and left the house, as I continued to watch television.

By the time it was midnight Lilly still wasn't home, and neither was Harry. I decided to have fun by myself and called a cab to take me to a bar. Once I got there it was filled with people, everyone having fun.

I ordered a bottle of beer, and just started drinking. Suddenly I felt a tap on my back. I turned to see a blonde boy, somewhat cute, wearing jeans and a white t-shirt from true religion.

"Hi." I said with a smile. "Hey, I couldn't help but notice you were sitting all alone, mind if I sit with you?" He asked, as I nodded kindly. "I'm Michael, by the way." He added, taking a seat next to me. "Alice, nice to meet you." I smiled at him, he seemed like a nice guy. "What is a beautiful woman like you doing here all alone?" He asked, causing me to blush. "There's just a lot going on in my mind, needed to clear some thoughts up." I replied.

The best thing about strangers is, you can tell them anything you desire, because they will never see you again anyway.

"What brings you here?" I asked, repeating his question. "Had a fight with my parents. Don't approve of what I'm doing with my life. They want me to go to college- but it's just not my thing." He answered. I appreciate the fact that he's honest with me, I'm sick of everyone around me constantly lying to me.

We continued to talk for a while, getting extremely drunk together. We eventually ended up making out. I asked him to come home with me, and we called a cab to take us back. Once we got to Harry's house I asked him to be extremely quiet as we walked into the basement, where I know no one would be. There was nothing but a couch and an old tv there. We laid on the couch, making out and slowly taking off each other's clothing. I would regret this in the morning, but I honesty don't even care.

I woke up with a headache, on top of Michael. We were both extremely hung over. We got dressed, then he said "I want to see you again, what's your number." He said, kissing me gently on my forehead. "I actually don't live here, this is my friends house. I live in Seattle." I admitted. "Oh, well I hope to see you again. Pay me a visit of you ever find yourself in Miami again." He said, giving me a wink, causing me to giggle. "Alright." I replied with a smile, then walked him out the house. As soon as I shut the door i heard Harry.
