Tonight

A girl starts crying
A boy starts crying, wrongly assuming blame
Another girl starts crying when another boy screams at her
I go outside and find three drunk friends sobbing their eyes out
Girl one wants boy one to comfort her
I must comfort boy one because he is sobbing
Boy two and girl one fight and make up
I comfort crying boy and put him to bed
Other people take care of girl one who is going insane
Girl one goes to bed.
Girl two and boy one leave to fix their fight.
I talk to boy one for hours and eventually take on his pain as he falls asleep.

And in the end, Travis found me sitting against a fence, crying, by myself, in the dark, begging a friend over a long distance phone call to tell me a story...
Any bedtime story...
Just so I can fall asleep.
And forget that everyone hurts so badly.
