I never thought id wake up again in all honesty. My head hurts worse than ever, all of the memories from last night come flooding back. I turn over and see Fez next to me, sat up against my headboard eating a bowl of lucky charms. He looks at me and smiles, milk dribbling out of his mouth, I love how strange Fez can be sometimes.

"Hey" I say yawning.

"Hey beautiful." He rubs my back as I sit up and hold my head in pain.

We sit in silence for a few minutes as I fully gather my surroundings, fez still rubbing my back while he spoons cereal into his mouth with one hand, almost spilling the whole bowl all over my bed sheets.

"Rue told me ab you sis. Im so sorry Kid." He says gently.

I turn my head to look at him.

"How did Rue find out?"

"Her mom got a call from your sisters boyfriends parents, they musta found her number and classed it as a close contact"

"Ah, right." I say sighing, I don't even want to think about my sister, it just adds onto everything.

"I know you didn't actually get clean." He sighs.

I knew Rue had told him, but i'm not even angry, because i know deep down i was really going to try. If only this whole suicide attempt hadn't happened.

"i'm sorry. I really was trying at the start. But then Loads of shit happened with me and rue, she tried to get me to do drugs again but i didn't do it. But then my sister died and I overdosed." I want him to know, the truth always comes out.

"I ain't mad baby. I just want you to be happy and healthy." He says wrapping his arms around me.

He stands up and pulls me up.

"cmon u needa shower."

We walk over to the bathroom and shut the door, he turns on the shower and takes my t shirt and shorts off. I laugh and take his boxers off. We get into the hot shower and bicker about stupid things, like who's hogging the hot water, who's splashing who, who needs more soap, and it makes me appreciate the real and genuine things in life. It makes me appreciate him and realise how much i truly love him. He kisses me slowly as we are drenched by the water, grabbing at my waist and moving my hair out of the way. I kiss his neck gently and move down to his chest, leaving hickeys, which i know he just loves.

We get out and dry ourselves off and get dressed.

"come back to mine for awhile mel, this house got too many bad memories."

I nod and smile, knowing i will feel so much more support being around Fez.

I pack a large bag to make sure i have plenty of stuff to last me, So i don't have to come back here until i feel better.

We get into his car and drive off, unrolling the windows and enjoying the hot breeze.

I feel alive again.
