Hotel California

"You’re tickling me"
"Oh really?"
"Yes"
"Then I think this Will be even better" said Tom tickling my sides again.
"no!"

I squirmed trying to tickle him too. I think it was only fair.

It had been almost a month since Tom and I where together. And it was amazing. When I was with him I was genuinely happy. I was special, because Tom took care of making me happy and telling me he loved me every minute of the day made it even better.

Just now we where having another tickling fight. Which was not fair because he always won. We where lying or at least I thought I had. The door suddenly opened and Mikey was there, looking at Tom and I kissing. Mikey knew about Tom and me, but he never liked the idea. When we saw him there we sat up.

"Don’t you know how to knock?” I said angrily.
"I did, I guess you where too busy to hear," he said almost as angry as I was.
"Well you know? I really appreciate my privacy. So if you excuse me, I would like a little time alone with my boyfriend"
"Really? Because lately you only have time for him"
Tom stood up and walked over to Mikey, which in turn make him react to the aggression.
"Wait a minute you two, don’t start fighting.” I said quickly getting up from the bed and walking over to them. "Tom, I need to talk to Mikey. I think we have some things to talk over." I told him quietly.
"Do you want me to leave?”
"Ill call you later okay?”

"Yeah sure, ill see you later" we kissed quickly and he left the room leaving me and Mikey alone. I locked the door again and turned to Mikey. I was really angry.
"All right, now tell me. Who the fuck do you think you are to barge in my room like that? "
"God! I have a key! I think you gave me that right a long time ago"
"And why did you come in if you knew i was with him?”
"Because I didn’t, I only asked your mother if she knew where you where and she said here. She didn’t mention anything else"
"I know she is an idiot, but couldn’t you tell from the music? "
"You always listen to music like that"
"Then you could’ve just supposed I was with him!”
"Oh right i forgot… you are always with him!”
"What are you trying to say?”
"That you don’t have time for anything else, it’s always Tom time"
"And what did you want? He is my boyfriend. Its supposed to be like this"
"Really? Because you’re not even the same from before. You're not the same with me"
"Don’t be stupid"
"It’s the truth you’re not even spending time with me anymore"
"This is just about you isn’t it? " I spat at him.
"Of course not! For gods sake! He had his hand under your blouse you would never permit that"
"What are you trying to say? That I’m a hooker? "
I yelled at him. It was the first time we had ever done that.
"That you are turning into something you hated. Now you are just like Greta. You used to say that she was a whore and now you…"

I didn’t even let him finish that sentence. Before that I slapped him, as hard as I could.

"I cant Believe you are saying that. " I said with tears on my Face "and if you are going to act like this, I don’t want to see you again… ever. " I was trying to catch my breath. "Get out"

Mikey left my room not saying a single word. I don’t remember being as mad as I was at that moment, ever in my life. I looked out the window and I could see that it was getting darker. I felt desperate. I was walking around my whole room, but I couldn’t stop thinking about Mikey. I was about t explode. It was best if I just walked around and took some fresh air, I needed to clear my head before my thoughts starting attacking each other. I took my bag and left the house, my mom stopping me first of course.

"Where are you going?”
"I need to take a walk"
"All right I’m about to go out"
"Ill take my keys"
"Okay"

I left the house and started walking around, not really going anywhere. I just wanted to forget about everything. My cell phone rang… Tom.

"yeah? "
"Alex are you all right?”
"Not really, I just need to think about stuff"
"What happened?”
"We had a fight"
"Yeah I think that’s kind of obvious. But what happened between you two? "
"I just don’t want to see him again"
"That bad?”
"Yes"
"I’m sorry Alex"
"You know what? It doesn’t matter. If he is not capable of understanding my reasons, then I can’t be his friend"
"You should think about it"
"I’m trying"
"Okay, then ill leave you to think. Ill call you later"
"I love you"
"Hmhm. Bye"

I hung up and put the phone inside my purse again, I kept walking and I noticed that I didn’t have any where I was. I stopped to look around, maybe if I recognized something around me I could go back.

All I could see was old buildings, almost all of them barren of people. I saw my watch, almost 9 o’clock. It had been a while since I left my house, but everything seemed like it had been minutes since my fight with Mikey. His words where embedded in my head and I just couldn’t forget. I was not as mad now, but I was still hurt. And I had lost him forever. I had been too hard on him. He was only trying to look out for me, as always. I had just yelled at him, for nothing. Maybe it was not as late as I thought, he was my best friend, I couldn’t let this fight take him away from me. It was best if I called him. I took my phone out again, no signal. I could call him when I got home.

I suddenly heard some rustling behind me, I looked back and there was nothing there.

"Someone there?” I asked with no response.

I was about to start walking again, when someone covered my mouth and hit me in the head.
