The Next Day
Avery's POVLast night Scarlett got very very drunk and I'm concerned. She's been doing better and now this? Every time I think she getting better she does something like this.
*************
"Scarlett wake up. We need to talk"She groggily got up and followed me into the kitchen.
"What?""Why the hell did you get drunk last night?"
"What do mean?"
"Do you seriously not remember last night?"
"No"
"You've gotta be kidding me. Do you remember drinking anything?"
She looked down and said no. "Try again. I know your lying"
"Okay, I remember drinking some vodka"
"Why did you steal vodka from the convenience store?"
"To drink it"
"You know what I mean Scar"
"I just wanted some okay?"
"Scarlett you've been doing so well lately. Why would you go and do something like that?"
"It's like an itch in the back of my head that I can't scratch. It's like my brain itch's and the only way to get rid of it is to drink"
"Scar" I don't know what to say.
"What about AA?" I heard Amy say
We both turn and look at her.
"I am not going to AA""Think about it, your an alcoholic. Your addicted to it, even when your in a good frame of mind you still drink"
"I agree with Amy Scar, maybe you should go to AA"
"It was one drink" She said getting up annoyed.
"You mean one bottle. You drank a whole bottle of vodka and worst you stole it"
"I'm not going to AA, I don't need another therapist or another group of people to quote on quote relate with and talk to"
"If you don't stop your going to end up killing yourself" Amy said. After she said that we all just kind of went silent for a second before Scarlett responded.
"Why do these things always lead to me killing myself?" She asked walking away into their room.
"Why haven't you guys put her in AA? She been like this for 3 years now""With all the other therapists and psychiatrists and groups she's been in, we didn't want to add another one when she already has plenty"
