Milanas PoV
"And I have been sober for 5 years now"
Me and the rest of the room clapped him and cheered. The woman who had a bun turned to me
"Tell us your name and your story" she said with a calm voice. I felt about 15 paires of eyes burn into my skin. I stood myself up and took a deep breath
"Yes, hello I'm milana, this is slightly awkward but I'm not an alcoholic, I came in here to use the toilet and I ended up here, but I'm very proud of you all, especially you Berne" I said and pointed to the old man and did a little clap. Man this was awkward. The room was silent
"Right, I see" she said in a confused voice. I nodded and started to shift away
"I'll be going now, keep it up everyone" I cheered as I walked out.
Never in my life had I been so embarrassed. I'd been in that room for half a hour, listening to people's story's, after taking a wrong turn for the toilets.
I walked though the doubles doors and walked all the way outside to my car. It was dark outside so I pulled out the flashlight on my phone to guide me. I was in the dark area of town, which meant limited amount of light and also a high crime rate.
I felt uneasy but I knew my car wasn't far. Once I got inside I'd be fine.
I got to my car safely and unlocked it and climbed in. I strapped myself in and instantly started up the engine. Without hesitation I started to drive away.
I was driving along an empty road when my headlights caught a car. It was pulled over and had smoke coming out of it. I slowed down the car slightly as I passed it so I could see what had happened.

I could see a guy. He was stood at the front of his car and looking inside it. He turned to me. I couldn't see any facial features but damn that body
He lifted his arm up, like he was indicating for me to stop. I rolled the window down
"Are you okay" I called. The man started to walk over to my car. It was still too dark to make out his face
"My car had broken down" I herd him laugh, his voice was heavenly. "I can't get a repair man still tomorrow" he groaned
"I'll drive you home if you want" I offered, trying to be a good person
"Really, yes please that will be great" he said, he turned back to his car then back to me. He then walked around to the passenger side of my car and climbed it. I switched on the light so he could strap himself in. Also so I could see his face.
I turned and watched him strap him self and that's when I realised I had let an angel into my car. His dark hair sat perfectly curled ontop of his head, dark mysterious eyes, everything just perfect.
I coughed slightly to snap my self back into reality.
He strapped himself in and I switched the light back off and started driving.
"Why were you driving so late at night" he asked me, his voice had a slightly hint to it but I couldn't tell what
"Long story, you?" I asked
"Long story too" he said and chuckled slightly.
We drove in silence for a while. I couldn't think of anything to say and I think he couldn't think of anything either. I was about to ask him where he lived so I knew where I was even driving too but he beat me

"Didn't your parents even teach you not to pick up a hitch hiker" he asked, his voice was darker, and I felt his head turn and his eyes just burn into me. I felt my heart pound
"Wha-" I started but I was cut off by a cloth being pushed to my face.
I felt my eyes grow heavy and my body start to go limp
"Acetone and bleach, what a combo" I herd before everything went black.
