Weslyn, I know we don't know each other. But I'll be honest, I wouldn't feel okay if I let you stay at that party tonight knowing I can do something about it. You are really drunk and I just want to make sure you get home safe.
well arent u some kind of night in shining armor
No, I'm not. I just want to help. Send me your location, Weslyn.
I don't want you to know where i live
It's an honest response, and one I will totally respect the boundary of because I know how foreign this situation is.

You won't have to tell me your destination, only where you're at right now. You can give your home address to the driver. I won't know where you live. I promise.
I wait, eager for her to listen. But there's nothing much I can do if she chooses not to and I would understand why. A few minutes pass, I watch the phone for any signal that she's texting, but then before I know it, her location comes through.
11:10pm
I type the address into the rideshare app and wait for the information to process before sending her another text.
11:13pm
Thank you, Weslyn. Your driver will be waiting for you in twenty minutes at the front door. Black SUV.

He keeps using my name. It's making my already fuzzy brain even fuzzier and it's crawling its way to my heart too. I stumble out of the bathroom after sending him my location feeling really strange about letting him do what he's doing for me, but I won't deny that I got myself into this situation and I'd really like to get home tonight.
Besides, I feel like my buzz is fading quickly now that I realize what I'm about to do, and I know exhaustion will invade me soon. So I grab a water bottle from the kitchen before I wander outside and wait for theUber.

im outside now
He's not far now. About eight minutes out.
Thank you.
Wow. I get a capital letterfinally.
Im so sorry for this
Do not apologize, Weslyn. You were just having fun. These things happen.
please stop using my name
I'm sorry. I didn't know it was bothering you.
It's not. the opposite actually.
What do you mean?
What do I mean?Do I tell him the truth? That when he types out my name, I wonder what his voice sounds like when he speaks it, what he'll looks like when he looks at me and says it. How I might want that. For him to look at me or say my name out loud. I know it's a crazy idea. And maybe it's the alcohol talking, but the thoughts are there and they're confusing me.
