Hi, it's me again. I have a new story for you and it's very different from my usual content because it's 100% real. Normally I enjoy writing fictional stories but this son of a bitch happened just yesterday and I had to just... write about it. It's all I think about at the moment. Anyway... Enjoy ;)
********************************
I live with my parents but on weekdays I am at my dorm because I attend university and travelling is not cheap or comfortable. This story happened on Monday. I did not expect this to happen; I think it may have been a hallucination. I mean... I just... I don't know what happened for sure but I bet I was trolled or something. Anyway, like most Mondays, there is usually a party somewhere. And unlike most Mondays, I decided to join my roommates and just go to it. I'm not a party guy. If anything I enjoy LAN parties, because it's less chaotic.
I have two roommates: Alex and Patch. No relation to my other story. I have no idea what the Patch's name actually is, I have heard it maybe two or three times tops, but it was so long ago that I forgot and it's really awkward to ask him what his name is. When we met he had an eye-patch and he still did for a few months so his nickname kinda stuck.
I wasn't planning to go to the stupid party but there was something Patch said to me that changed my mind. Following the current meme trend, when it comes up, we often discuss if traps are gay or not. What do you guys think? Just because someone dresses as a woman, doesn't instantly makes him gay, right? So I was just staying in my room, grinding on whatever MMO I was playing at the time, when he barged in and said:
"Dude, you gotta come to the party. It's a madhouse up there."
Naturally I said:
"Of course I will come. Just like every day I come."
We are smart people; we recognize sarcasm before the sentence is even finished. But he knew how to make me drop everything and follow him upstairs.
"My buddy will be there..."
Here's a little backstory. Sometimes he mentions that he has a "buddy" who is a trap. And let me tell you this - I LOVE TRAPS. I'm not afraid to admit it. I love traps. That's the way it fuckin' is. I'm not gay, I tested it. I like girls or guys who look so much like girls that you can't tell they're guys. In other words - traps.
"Are you sure? I don't think your "buddy" even exists. And I don't want to spend my evening around people who I don't know and will potentially hate."
To which he said:
"Oh, he's real... or she is real. Depending on what you call them. Trust me, I told him about you and now he's super into you."
Normally this isn't something I would even think about but the fact that it's a trap intrigued me. I had no other choice but to play it like I'm forced to go against my will.
"Alright, dude, let's get this over with."
Suddenly he just looked at something above like he was having a flashback and said:
"Ever since we met and you told me you liked traps I was chatting with my buddy whenever we were together and he was like super excited to meet you. I was fixing this sort of blind date for months. And it looks like you need someone in your life. You look kinda lonely..."
"Wooooow, woooooow, wooooooow... Wow. First of all, I'm alone, not lonely. I prefer to be alone. By no means do I actually feel like I need someone in my life. Second. Are you drunk? You don't act this nice when you're sober."
"I'm not drunk... yet. You're my friend and I think I made the right call when I invited my buddy to the party. Don't let him down, alright? At least come and meet him and if it's not meant to be then it's not meant to be."
"Alright fine. Let me just change into something more fit for a party."
He looked me over and raised his eyebrows.
"Have you ever been to one of these parties before? You don't need to change. Just wear your shoes because there's always vomit on the floor."
"God I hope this is worth it."
So I pull the plug on my laptop because it shuts off for like 5 minutes and I wear my snickers. As we're moving towards the party, the music is getting louder. Then I figured I should ask:
"How will I recognize your buddy? Are you gonna introduce us?"
"Uhm, no actually. He knows what you look like from pictures I've shown him. He will recognize you."
"Great." Sarcastically.
We arrive at the party and oh man. Like I said I'm not a party person. The last party I attended was probably in high school and it's the main reason I don't go to these. The music is loud. No, that would be an understatement. THE MUSIC IS LOUD. If you can hear my thoughts, it's likely that I can't hear mine. Not only that, but everyone in there is either - dancing, drinking, kissing or smoking. For a lone guy like me, this is an alien planet.
I make a step inside and just as promised the first thing I stepped on was somebody's vomit on the floor. What a great start. At that point Patch has already left me and I was alone so to speak in this alien environment, so I look around and try to make my way to the bar for a drink. When I arrive it's surprisingly deserted. Probably the people who arrived earlier grabbed their drinks and went to party. I looked around and started nervously to tap my fingers on the table, wondering if I should just pour myself a drink. Not a second later a girl jumps from the other side and looks at me in something between shock and the look you get when you expect the guy to order.
"Yes? What would it be?"
That took me out of nowhere, I wasn't really prepared for this, so I had to make sure I was in the right place.
"Are you in charge of the drinks here?"
"Yeah, today's my turn."
"Your turn? Does everyone get a turn?"
"It's a boring job but someone has to do it. What would you like?"
I look at the drinks behind her and try to find something I would actually drink. I don't drink alcohol, so it was a bit tricky.
"Do you have... something different?"
The way I said that, it was no surprise she reacted in such a manner.
"What are you? Like a cop or something?"
"What? No!"
"That's totally what a cop would say..."
"I'm NOT a cop."
"Because if you are and I ask you then you have to tell me. That's totally a law or something."
"I'm not a cop. And that isn't a real law."
"Well if you're not a cop then how do you know it's not a real law? Busted."
"...you got me."
"Relax, I'm just messing with you. What do you want? Coke is pretty popular today."
"Do you have Pepsi?"
"Pepsi?"
