"It's okay, calm down Ashlyn."

"Dylan, I cheated on my boyfriend! That's not okay."

Okay so for the past twenty minutes, I have found out that her name is Ashlyn, her boyfriend got into a fight with her because he has to go to "work" often and he's a bad boy. Also that she loves him somehow, still even though he can be a real douche and not pay attention to her, but he also has money.

"Look Ash, you've been explaining this whole situation so quickly that it's not even funny. Just breathe girl." I say soothingly.

With sass, she says,"Dylan, this is stressful, if he finds out what we were about to do, he'll get mad and probably beat you up, or even kill you."

"Yeah like he can woop my ass." I roll my eyes.

A dead serious look plasters on her face, "Does this look like I am joking."

Now that made things awkward because how bad can this guy be?

"Whatever, so what? You kinda cheated with him, he doesn't have ta know." I say awkwardly.

She starts crying again and I literally felt like I would have started crying with her because this was just so sad, straight out from a movie like I don't know, the notebook? Is that even like this? Eh.

"Hey hey, it's okay, Ash." I say hugging her tightly. She sobs louder into the crook of my neck.
Oh gosh. I hope Yolanda doesn't think we are having sex while crying.

"Tha-thank yo-you, D-Dylan." She stutters in the midst of her tears.

"I am here for you." I reply.

She picks up her head to face me and reveals her droopy black makeup, "I don't even kn-know you and I already wa-want to say I lo-love you."

Then without thinking, I crash my lips onto hers and slide my hands under her bra straps(but don't take them off in case you are wondering ya nasty). Her body seemed a little shocked or frozen for a second but regained consciousness and her lips began to move in sync with mine. Her hand began to carress my cheek and the other wrapped on the back of my head. My arm was holding onto her shoulder and my hand laid on her bare thigh.
Soon, the kiss deepened and her leg went over mine til she sat on my lap, kissing me ever so passionately. This may sound kinda sappy but it was probably the best kiss ever. Fireworks were created and it sent sparks throughout my whole body, and it felt fucking amazing.

"Get up, let's go hit that dance floor," she said.

I had been talking to this girl for almost an hour and I've never bonded with someone so quickly before, ya she was kind of a douche but now that I think I've actually impressed her, I feel so ecstatic. I don't drink or do drugs, I just get natural highs. If you have never heard of that before, let's just say I learned that word in the seventh grade and still remember. I mean, come on, you should already know I'm the smart one who remembers.

Though throughout the whole conversation with the girl, I don't remember if she said her name. If I ask and she did tell me, that'd be so awkward. Have I told her my name?

The girl dragged me near the dance floor but before we got on I tried to talk over the incredibly loud ass music.
"Wait, I don't want to be a douche the whole night and not know your name."

"What? Less talking more dancing!" She screamed back. It was obvious she had no idea what I was saying, but it just got me frustrated. Before I could make a peep, I mean, yell another word, someone pushed me forward and she kissed my cheek and grabbed my hand, then tugged me onto the dance floor. We were submerged in bodies with little room because of the amount of people here. I instantly forgot about what I was talking about when we stepped onto the floor. My face got red and hot from her lips touching my cheek, and my palms were already starting to sweat. That is the worst feeling ever too, trust me.

We danced and sang, I lost my voice and drank like five water bottles. She got so tipsy I think, I still don't know her name and we got so close even though I wasn't drunk. She was a happy drunk, she laughed and giggled the whole night and her happiness was contagious. I don't remember when I stopped smiling.

Dylan passed me by at one point, I noticed him out of the corner of my eye. You see, usually if I saw one of my friends, I'd run up to them to hang out because I had nothing better to do. This is the first fucking time I had something better to do, and hell, I wish this would last forever.

Artemis.

Artemis.

Artemis.

Her feeling in my arms,

her slow breathes on my neck,

her soaking tears,

felt so

weird.

Yet, it was oh so right.

She collected herself a little later and pulled away from me and stared into my eyes. I stared back, in awe.

"Artemis, you're basically someone I just met, and I actually have some respect for you." I say.
How stupid am I though.

"What, that's pretty shitty of you to say." She says raising an eyebrow.

"No I don't mean it like that!" I say waving my arms to frantically explain. "I mean that it was pretty honorable that you cried in front of me. I don't think most girls would."

That was stupid to say too.

"Huh? Girls cry and usually I don't ever, you just caught me at a terrible time you... Anti feminist." she rolled her eyes at me.

How was I suppose to know girls are this emotional?
Okay, I did kinda know-ish.
I'm not good with deep sadness with other people, I am only able to feel not awkward if I'm by myself. People are mysteries within stories of themselves, they are their own protagonist. The antagonist is their life. It just amazes me at how individual people are all so different but altogether are not much different. Strange.

Artemis is strange. I don't realize a lot of things, but I do realize that Artemis is strange, like a jigsaw puzzle of some sort. A puzzle and a jigsaw puzzle are both puzzles, what's the point in giving one a specific name?

No point! It's strange.

Like Artemis.

I look up at her to see her strangeness in the dim light of night.

I must've had a weird look on my face because she had a look of confusion.

"What are you staring at? Um, looking for something?" She questioned.

"Nope. Just looking for your answer." I said loosely.

"What do you mean, answer?"

"You have a mystery within you that I'm trying to solve."

"What does staring at me do to help?"

"I'm looking for clues or a hint."

"Well, you can keep looking all you want but all you will find is my beauty." She scoffed, brushing a shoulder.

"Very funny. I'm serious," I exclaimed.

"Yeah and I... Don't care." She said, smirking.

"You are kind of close minded for someone who is calling out to be understood."

"Since when did I call out to be understood?!"

"Well your aura tells a lot about you."

"Like?" She asked.
I was literally just saying uhh. That whole minute.

"Help me understand." I said, trying to break the silence, "I don't get you, and I want to get you."

"Wally, thank you for being someone to me right now, but-"

"Artemis, no!" I cut her off, "No more buts. (Smirk. Sorry not sorry) I can't tolerate excuses anymore!"

She inhaled a very deep breathe and exhaled. She grabbed my hand and turned me around to look out into the city's night life.

She stared out, blank but strongly. "I'll tell you."
