we arrived at your place, and the trailer smelt of burned, yet wet, cigarettes.

the sofa was stained, the counters were dusty. but it was a hell of a lot better than before.

i hate the past. but you're the only acception. 

you're the only acception for a lot of things i normally despise. 

and i hate that, more than i can even imagine. 

"you can sleep in my room, but if i end up next to you its because i sleep walk." 

"all good, thank you by the way." that was probably the first actual sentence i said to you.

"of course, i don't know what you're going through, but i want to help," you said with an unlit cigarette in your mouth as you reached for the liquor. 

"care for a glass?" you said, in a very unrealistic british accent. 

contradicting whether one glass could fuck me up, i answered, 

"sure" 

"mmmk" you said pouring up another glass. 

i seated myself on the stained couch, you set the glasses on the coffee table. 

"is this hard liquor, in a wine glass?" 

"yeah, what? cant take it?" 

"i can i jus-" i shouldnt be here. 

you took my glass and drank half of it. 

"there." 

an hour went by and i was barely tipsy. 

it takes about 3 bottles of hard liquor to get me blackout. 

"okay im gonna head to bed." you told me. 

i stood up, heading into what i assumed was the bedroom. 

the bed wasnt made, that night i slept on top of the comforter. 

i liked sleeping. 

i slept all my problems away. 

drinking made me tired. 

i just wish you had actually gone to bed.
