17.

As a rule, I don’t drink.

It hits me too hard and gives me a terrible headache. I feel hungover and puffy for days.

Popping the cork, I don’t think about the consequences. At least, not long enough to care. Everyone in town hates me.

And I have a crush on the literal Mothman, who left me. So, you know, that’s great. Love this for me. Foolish, he’d called me. His words burn a gaping hole in my heart.

I pour myself a glass of wine, swishing the dark liquid around in the glass.

The worst thing about it?

He was right all along.

A city girl in the woods? I’m more like a fish in the desert, flopping aimlessly without an ounce of water to revive me.

No grace, no dignity, just arguments in the middle of convenience stores and the feeling of suffocation squeezing my lungs. Moving away didn’t fix a damn thing. I was foolish to think it would. What if no one in this town is ever going to like me?

I wanted to connect with who I am outside of the brand I built. I didn’t consider that person might actually suck. Since moving out here, have I actually done anything to connect with nature? The weather is perfect tonight, and there’s a cool breeze. A real outdoorsy person would make a bonfire, so that’s exactly what I’ll do.
