The Ultimate Third Wheel
So, last night was Coop's 18th birthday party. Which rocked. We all had a great time (well apart from random girl who spent the night in tears). There was helluva turn out as well, I didn't know half of the people there! Also: I discovered I suck at Fusball.
Anyway, it was at about 4.00 in the morning when something went wrong. Holly U had one of her depression sprouts, I suppose you could call it an an anxiety attack. I wasn't around at this point, and Coop's and her and gone upstairs to the room at the top where nobody really went (so you can guess why we thought they had left). Anyway, later on I ran into Cooper when he came downstairs and asked where Hol was coz I was after my little badge thing off my T-shirt she nabbed. So, I went up and found her shaking and feeling really bad. She'd told me bout the spells of feeling like this but I'd never seen her like it!
I comforted her for a bit ('coz Cooper had to go and kick everybody out), but didn't do very well. Possibly because there was a distraction where I was lifting a chair off a garage roof after Sam put it there out the window. Did my back in doing that as well. Of course, it's also possible that it's REALLY hard to cheer up someone when they become depressed like that. Luckily, Cooper saved the day when he came back and gave her chocolates, and somehow some jokes 'bout chocolates came out and she cheered up. Chocolates really can solve all of life's problems.
There's kinda a scene missing here. I went downstairs, actually waiting to get my jumper back off Hol before I left (she asked to borrow it after it became freezing when Sam opened the window). Anyway, I musta missed something 'coz Cooper disappeared in a bad mood. I discovered Hol was leaving at some point as well, so I thought I had better wait for her so she had someone to walk home with. (At 5.00 I could hardly let her walk home alone! Eventually she got a taxi from the pub outside my house anyway. So really she kept me company walking home, which I'm grateful for!) When we found Cooper though, he seemed pissed off at her, and wouldn't tell me what was wrong. Very strange.
Anyway, I kinda ended up feeling like the world's ultimate third wheel, when I was in these random situations with the two of them, being great mates with both, and kinda feeling like I should leave but not wanting to. It was strange and unpleasant. Being a third wheel is not fun.
