Trust me when I tell you, that is a big step for me.She’s not there, of course, and the literal rock stars who occupy the seats we abandoned are not cooperative. The drummer, though, with ice blue eyes, tattooed knuckles and an insouciant attitude, tells me he saw her, she doesn’t have her phone, and left with his guitar player to find us... moreChelseaWhen my friend gets left behind during our girls’ night out, I’m the one who’s brave enough to go back to the last club we’d left to find her.
