The Rose Garden Chapter 4: drowning sorrows Just staring beyond the window during my magic studies class, looking at the beautiful summer weather outside on a Friday day, school is gonna end in two hour since Fridays are a short day. I still felt depressed that i wasn't making any progress with Chad, I sighed. "you ok Alex?" Ryan said with a concerned tone. "oh...I'm ok" i quietly said as i turned to face him. "you sure?" he said, "hey, Alex..." "yes?" i said, wondering what he is gonna to say next. "there's this party tonight, it's gonna be fun" he said, suppressing the excitement in his voice, i never knew that Ryan partied, he look like the bookworm type, oh well you can't judge a book by it's cover. "ok sure....it's been awhile since i last partied" "great, I'll pick you up at 8:30" he said and continued to pretend to look at his school book. I brought my head back to the window and daydreamed about Chad. The end of the school bell rang and people got up and rushed back to their dorms to do whatever. i walked back to my dorm at a normal pace, but I was a bit depressed, oh well, I'll drown my depression with a couple drinks of booze. When i arrived at my room door, i grabbed my key's and unlocked the door and i walked inside and closed the door quickly. I flopped down on my bed and buried my head into the soft pillow an slowly feel asleep. I slowly opened my eyes and turned my head to look at the clock. 7:53 I got up and walked to the shower, i took off my clothes and turned on the shower, cleansing my body and soul, moments later i slowly walked out of the bathroom with only a towel around my waist and walked over to my clothes drawer, i put on baggy black jeans and a loose khaki shirt and i walked over to the mirror to fix my hair, after that was done i sat on my bed to wait for Ryan. shortly i heard a knock on my door i quickly walked over and opened a door and saw Ryan, he was wearing baggy jeans and a loose sweater, he didn't wear his glasses, he looked good. "you ready?" he said with a smile. "yeah" i said back, smiling back at him. "cool" he said and walked away, myself behind him. We finally arrived at this big house outside of the school grounds, the sound the music booming and loud and people laughing before i got inside the house, when i walked inside, Ryan took me to his group of friends, who were all drinking, i quickly grabbed a cup from a nearby table and started drinking the beer, shortly i felt light on my feet and i found myself wobbling a bit and Ryan took me to a small room where the alcohol took over and i soon passed out unknowing what Ryan was gonna do. After a while i got up and i noticed that the music was playing quietly and i heard people leaving, i got up and headed for the door where i found Ryan was standing by with a big grin on his face. "you had fun?" he asked "yeah, this party kicked ass, but i kinda drank a bit too much" i said a bit woozy "Yeah, it happens" he said and walked back to the campus, i slowly followed him, trying to remember what Ryan was doing when he took me to that room, i tired hard but it was just all a blur, i figured that Ryan did nothing and it didn't bothered me anymore.
