please... dont drink and drive
saturday morning at 2:53am a good friend of mine was driving home from a party... drunk... crashed his car and died...
he just turned 21 not even two months ago...
ive known him for a little over a year... a year and a half at most... and i was crushed... i still randomly start crying everyday...
my boyfriend was like best friends with him when i met both of them, they had a falling out a while ago but had just gotten back into contact a week or so ago, we had hungout with him all friday/friday night... he was drinking with some people here at my boyfriends house, a friend of his called him and said blah blah blah huge party you should come blah blah and he went... he tried to get my boyfriend nick to go with him but i wouldnt let him go, i dont like drinking and driving in the first place, and i wasnt drinking and didnt want to go and have the cops show up and get an underage drinking ticket well sober, and really didnt want to sit at my boyfriends house by myself all night. so he stayed home, the next morning my boyfriend wakes up and has like 1121346 missed calls from his dad, somehow in the confustion another person who was in the car thought my boyfriend was with them and word got back to his dad, and nicks dad was trying to find him, to see what hospital he was in... thankfully i didnt let him go so he wasnt physically hurt, but he found out he had lost his friend...
on the positive side, i know nick has learned something from this, so dereks death wasnt compleatly invain, and the last momory i will have of him is when he huged me when he left and kissed the top of my head, he was a very sweet guy like that...
but not everybody has learned from dereks passing, lastnight, a friend of derek and nick called nick and said "im having some poeple over tonight drinking and talking about derek" and invited us to go... when i heard that i wanted to scream and kill the guy, his friend died less than 48 hours ago becuase he was drunk driving and crashed his car, and he wants to have people over to drink, and what drive home, is he that ****ing dumb?
then today nicks boss/landlord called him to see about picking up a carpet cleaning machine that nick had borrowed and nick told him how he hadnt slept since he found out about his friend, and that he really felt like he couldnt go into work today but he would be here painting the hallways of the building and stuff instead. the man told nick no you have to come in we dont have anyone else to work beside me and my son (who works there everyday)and said but i have some things i need you to do around the appartment when you get off work. so basicly... made nick, my greaving boyfriend who hasnt slept in two days and breaks down randomly throughout the day, go into work. by the time nick got to work... his boss had left, he couldnt put off whatever he had to do that was sooo important, to give my boyfriend one more day of graving before going in and working with people, and exsects him to work on the building when he gets off...
i just want to scream and cry and wake up from this horrible nightmare :(
but its not a nightmare its real life... i dont understand how people can be so insensive
rest in peace derek, you were an amazing person
