you look up at the sky. No stars. No sky, just the bottom of the bridge. You cast your eyes back down to horizontal. Too fast, you feel dizzy. The lights are fuzzy. Fuzzier than you remember. You make a note to get your eyes checked. Was that someone calling your name? You seem to be standing with a group of people. Where did they all come from? The night started with just a couple, now theres a big group of about 10 or 40. Was it just one night or two? It's still the weekend. Probably. Although there doesn't seem to be anybody else out...

Your name is called again and you see a river of movement in front of you. All your friends are boarding the bus. They have boarded. You jump on quickly and fumble for your wallet. No smart rider. Theres a couple of coins though. The bus driver is looking at you too much. You ask if you can get a ticket to Perth. You are already in Perth. You ask if you can get a ticket to Perth Station. The bus driver says something. You ask him if you can get a ticket to Perth Station for $1. You give the bus driver your wallet. It feels light... where have all your cards gone? The bus driver gives you back your wallet without taking anything and closes the door. He says its ok. He makes eye contact. Too much eye contact. You walk down the bus. Your friends didnt help you. Are they your friends? The bus driver looked at you. Your friends abandoned you. You spit on the floor of the bus
