Falling for your twin

~6~

*𝗝𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗼'𝘀 𝗽𝗼𝘃*

He helped me to sit back at the counter and sat besides me, he then asked for a glass of water for me to the bartender.

I said a small "thank you..." after drinking half the glass.

"Are you okay now ?" He asked, staring at me.

"Y-Yeah"

No I'm not. I just fell in front of 15 people, duh!

He nodded, "then I'll take my leave, it was my pleasure to meet you"

He was about to go when I stopped him..

"Wait !"

He stared at me and raised one of his perfect eyebrows.

"I- uhm.. Can you p-please stay a bit longer?" I don't know what got into me but right at this moment I don't want him to leave. Maybe that's because I'm too drunk to know what I'm doing or just that I want some company ? I don't know.

He didn't answer anything but was still staring at me. Did I scared him ? Oh crap !

"I-I mean, I know that we're strangers b-but I kinda feel good with you so"

What am I even saying ?! What if it scares him even more and he run away? It would be doubly embarrassing.

After a few seconds, a playful smirk appeared on his face and he finally spoke, "you feel good with me ? Do you want me to stay so you could flirt with me again, Miss ?"

"WHAT- NO!!" I exclaimed a bit loudly which made him laugh a bit, "Okay okay, no need to scream I was joking"

What with this guy ? I don't even know him like that and yet he's already playing with me...well I was the one who asked him to stay with me even though I don't know him so

I watched with a pouty face as he sat back on the chair besides me, he ordered a shot of vodka and drank it. One and then two.

"I came here to drink because I was feeling anxious and eventually to forget about my problems. I needed something to forget about it but I exceeded my capacity to drink" I said out of the blue with a smile out of embarrassment trying to start a conversation.

"It's not my role to teach you how to drink but for me people who don't know their own limits are simply idiots" He said that without even glancing at me.

I was beyond surprised, what ? what happened to the joker guy from earlier ? He's upset because I told him to stay ? Or he's perhaps drunk too ?

"What-" I opened my mouth to speak but he continued...

"Drunks are one the kind of people that I hate the most. They think drowning themselves in alcohol will change whatever struggles they're in and it's plainly stupid"

"But I'm not an-"

"You're not an alcoholic ?" he interrupted me before glancing at me "what make you different from them if you're here getting wasted because something isn't doing well in your life ?"

The look on his eyes was cold, very cold almost like he despite me...Or maybe the fact that I was drunk.

He says that but he's also drinking like a maniac so what ?

As if he read in my mind he added "the difference between me and you is that I know my limits and will never get myself drunk, doing stupid things"

I didn't say anything. He's right, I knew that I wasn't a good drinker but I let myself get wasted, I thought I could have handled more than I can but I didn't.
