Past: Hey you remember that one time, when we...

Present: Don’t!

Future: What? What happened?

Present: I dare you, let's not talk about it.

Past: It was fun....:D

Present: It was pure embarrassment.

Future: If you would tell me what happened I could help avoid it.

Present: We fell….

Past: Oh yeah, but HOW did we fall…

Present: Don't make it worse than it already was. Just on the floor!

Past: It was delightful! We swivelled across the dancefloor, over to the bar, glided up there like angels in heaven, and swung our ever so young hips to the rhythm of …

Present: No one needs to know....

Future: I need to know!

Past: With the rhythm of …”Call me maybe”

Future: Carly Rae Jepsen

Present: Wait, that song still exists?

Present: In the future ...then... I mean. Future? Input, please?

Future: *cough* You are still listening to it sometimes....*cough*

Past: Well it WAS a good song!

Present: ...IS a good song!

Future: WILL BE! haha

Past: So why were we wearing heels if we could not handle it?

Present: Well I thought we looked pretty and they would fit.

Future: You fell off the bar didn't you….

Present: True. Case closed. Good night.

Past: Untrue! We got off the bar just fine, but tumbled and stumbled and plunged down the stairs in divine…

Present: I don't want to hear anymore!

Future: I DO!

Past: and…BAM! face first, onto the middle of the dancefloor, what glee!

Future: Oookayyy….happens. Sure there were lots of peeps, and no one noticed.

Present: Can't you see? Luck does not have me now...

Past: …and did not have us then. hehe

Future: Meaning?

Past: Meaning... just in the right moment, music off, lights on, time to go home.

Present: Meaning, stares, and laughs coming from everyone!!

Future: Was there no one to help?

Past: Not a single one. Only pictures were taken of this little drunk one.

Present: Hey I wasn't even...urgh whatever...

Present: And WHY exactly are we talking about this now?

Past: Because it's my job, just to make sure to give you the right amount of anxiety because....

Future: Oh I know that one!! Because we are going out tomorrow!

Present: Well...if you are so clever, why don't you prevent it from happening again?

Past: Clumsiness is our destiny...if not this we find something else, maybe spill a drink on someone...or...

Future: Got it! Just don't wear heels!

Past:...Or just don't go out...

Present: I see what best appeals and what the party is about.

Future: Good shout.

Present: Good night.

Past: Sleep tight.

....

Past: Hey you remember that one time when we did....

Present, Future: Quiet now with that bull sh**!

About the Creator

Jess S

One day I will be myself again,

and this darkness might come to an end,

and all doubt will cease,

and all strength will rise.

One day my tainted memories will be left behind,

and I will be able to see the world through a clear lens.
