“Yeah.” Skylar nods but seems eager to change the subject.
“Abbey could use a good friend.” Dean butts in but then quickly shoots me a look. “I just mean most of your past friends were kind of bitchy.”
“Kelly was fun for a while.” I say.
“Didn’t she fuck Kyle while you two were together?” Dean laughs.
“Yes.” I shrug.
“Ouch.” Ben laughs along with Dean.
“Kyle Mason from Deafening Silence?” Skylar asks curiously.
“Yes.” I nod.
“He mentioned you two dated when we toured with him last spring.” Skylar says.
“The guy was an ass.” Dean comments. “He was super jealous and possessive.”
“I would imagine he had to fight off a lot of guys.” Skylar laughs. I shrugged and took a long sip from the bottle of vodka. “Impressive." He nods at the bottle. “No chaser?”
“I have a liver made of stone.” I smile. I’m feeling pretty buzzed and missing Wes.
“I need another drink. See you around Abbey.” I smile as Dean walks away.
Ben looks at me, then at Skylar. “So, whatever happened with Holly?” He asks.
“We broke up before the start of the tour.”
“Holly?” I ask.
“Holly Wellington. She is a model for Hot Topic.” Ben says. “They dated for what, like a year?”
“Something like that.” Skylar says. “What about you? Do you have a girlfriend? I can’t seem to remember you ever having one.”
“No. I am forever single.” Ben’s voice is wry as he smiles.
I know what is happening. They are having a pissing contest, trying to make the other one look bad.
“I’m going to use the bathroom.” I say and walk down the hall.
I actually do need to pee, but I know Wes will think I threw up if he comes back and I’m in the bathroom, so instead, I walk down the bunks towards his bunk.
I sit on his bunk and pull out my vial. I quickly do a bump, resting the bottle of vodka between my legs. I put the vial away and lay back on his bunk. The smell of smoke and wood fills my nose. It smells like him, and I inhale the scent again.
I lay there for a bit until I hear footsteps.
“Hey.” I hear him say and sit up. “I was looking for you.”
“I have to pee, but I figured I should wait for you.” I hand him the bottle and stand up.
“Going to make me watch, huh?” He laughs.
“Just time it. Sue does that mostly.”
“Not going to throw up?” I shake my head. “I’m trusting you.”
I nod and walk past him to the bathroom.
