The Nighttime Samaritan
The streets of downtown bustled with music, laughter, and yelling. The clubs were still alive and my friends and I were in the heat of it. Body to body dancing in the clubs of San Diego for our girls night. When I had had enough, I called my partner to come collect me. My friends, not wanting the debauchery to end, opted to stay but walked me outside at the very least. They hugged me in a swaying “I’ve had one too many drinks sort of way” and I nuzzled against them. Telling them drunken lies of how I could make it home on my own and didn’t need them to wait with me. I didn’t want to be an inconvenience to them.
