A/N On every chapter there's going to be a song by "ALL" which I find to have interesting lyrics ;D
Chapter 2 – Casual Girl
-------------------------------------------
I met her one night, on one of my walks around Washington square park. It's not very common, meeting a girl like her that late at night, alone in the middle of the park. I guess she looked a little lost.
Guess I did too. After all, I was running away from dealing with my drunk mother and her new drunken boyfriend.
When we first looked at each other, when our eyes met, a look of understanding was exchanged between us.
Life sucks. We both knew it.
We became lovers that night, there, in the park on a green bench. It was desperate, the need for warmth we've both had. There were no questions asked. Just a deep, basic need to feel, be comforted for our miserable existence.
To fill our nothingness.
We used to meet there in the park almost every night. Sitting and dreaming together about being normal.
I'm usually a very guarded person. I have my walls. But with her, my guard gradually melted. Maybe it was the similarity between us, our fucked up lives, I don't know.
I began to lose my defenses and that was my biggest mistake. The beginning of the end of me. 'Cause it gave her control over me. Over my heart.
One night, one of my 'friends' told me about a party he was having. His parents went away for the weekend. It was gonna be a real chance to have some fun for a change.
I asked her to come with me, but she didn't want to join. Said it wasn't her 'thing', She's not a people's person. Like I was...
So I went alone, willing to get smashed and have a good time.
That was the last time I ever saw her. She just vanished, disappeared.
I asked around, tried to trace her down for a while, but it was a dead end effort. Deep down, I knew I'll never see her again. I just didn't want to think about what might have caused her disappearance.
I tried to go back to my old routine, wandering around the park alone at nights, reading my books on my green bench. But it just didn't seem to work for me anymore. It lost its comforting effect. I've missed her. I opened my heart to get hurt.
And I was alone again.
I had to find a way to blur the pain, a way to forget. Then I met him.
Adrian.
