"They say we are asleep until we fall in love
We are children of dust and ashes
But when we fall in love we wake up
And we are a god and angels weep
But if I die here tonight
I die in my sleep"

Benicia kept her arm looked with Matt's as she walked with him. She had already popped the Redbull open and was drinking it, "Do you want any?"
"Any of what?"
"Oh, right, it's Redbull." Benicia told him and glanced over at his face, "Do you know what it is?"
Matt tilted his head to the side, "No, could you explain?"
"Uh..." Her brain had completely shut off and forgot what Redbull even was for a second. "Well, it's an energy drink."
"What does it taste like?"
Benicia swung it around the can a bit while staring at the logo, "If you try it you'd know the taste, Matt."
"Does it really give you wings?"
Benicia paused as he began to laugh, "Were you fucking with me?" She shoved him a little bit, "Really?"
"I wanted to hear what you'd say." Matt admitted as he started to use his white cane to walk, "It was not as amusing as I'd hope. It was quite logical."
"Did you want me to choke?" Benicia crossed her arms over her chest, "Should have figured. You didn't answer me though."
"Sure." Matt held his hand out to take it.
"Wait, stop walking-" Benicia didn't want him to accidentally spill an on himself, "Hold on-" She held his hand up while placing the can correctly, "I wanna make sure you don't get any on your clothes."
Matt just listened to her closely and he could tell just how focused she was. She had one hand firmly holding his extended one, despite the fact that he could drink from the can just fine, he just didn't want to tell her. "Is it in the right position?"
"Yup."
Matt huffed out a breath-filled laugh before drinking some of her energy drink, "That's strong."
"You drink alcohol all the time and this is strong?" Benicia snorted before taking it back from him. "This is baby stuff."
"It tastes terrible."
"It really doesn't and that's unfortunate for you." Benicia drank the rest of what was left in the can, "Your taste buds must be broken."
"Yeah, they must be."
Benicia couldn't stop the smile from forming on her face. She crushed the can before putting it back into her Loungefly. "Do you drink anything other than whiskey?"
"Of course I do." Matt paused and knew that Benicia was staring at him, "Benicia, I drink water."
"Oh, my God." Benicia huffed and rolled her eyes, "I meant other things. And don't say coffee."
"Do you really think all I drink is alcohol and coffee?"
Benicia tilted her head to the side, "Well, I think I've only ever seen you drink alcohol and coffee."
