   For a few nights after Axel was shot Aaron had to rush into my room due to my nightmares. I made him promise not to tell Axel about them because I'm the last thing he needs to worry about. Axel has been out of the hospital for about a month and I've never felt as at peace as I do now with him living with me, being able to wake up in his arms every morning and knowing there's no time limit to it, constantly being able to be around him and knowing he's there. Sometimes I have to keep reminding myself that he's not going anywhere and that he's still with me. 

   "Hey you okay?" I looked at Ashley and tilted my head, "Hm?" She frowned and took my hand standing in front of me. "Whats going on, you were zoned out for like an hour" I shrugged and turned the T.V off, "I'm fine, just thinking" She nodded and sighed sitting next to me on the couch. "Where's Ax?" I pursed my lips, "He's staying at the office late with Evan" She made a face of disgust and I giggled. "Let's order pizza and watch chick flicks while we get wine drunk" I smirked at her and nodded and she took her phone out and dialed a pizza joint by our apartment. 

   I hopped off the couch and took out two wine glasses and two bottles of red wine. "I assume we'll be blowing through the both of these, should I run out and get another?" She scratched her chin then nodded. I smiled with a small giggle and grabbed my wallet before heading out to the liquor store on the end of our block. I quickly jogged to the corner and when I got in the store I immediately made my way to the wines and got another two bottles of red moscato and a bottle of sangria. I paid and quickly made my way back to the apartment and Ashleys eyes widened when she saw the extra two bottles. "Girl you said one" I smirked at her as I set the bottles on the table and shrugged. 

   "We don't have to drink them all Ash" She narrowed her eyes at me and opened the first of the five bottles we have and poured it in the two glasses I set out. I brought all the bottles to the coffee table and Ashley brung the glasses and handed me mine before she sat. I put Netflix on and we searched through the chick flicks and put one of them on. An hour and two glasses of wine later the pizza come and Ashley gets on her knees looking at the ceiling and thanks God. I laughed so hard I almost peed and she quickly got up and got the pizza. "I fucking love pepperoni" Ashley said while sniffing the air above the pizza box.

   "Mmmm I second that" I giggled out and Ashley placed the box of pizza on the coffee table after I moved the bottles of wine to the floor. "Let's dig in baby" I nodded with a huge smile and we started to eat while going back to the movie and our wine. Ashley was quick to put another movie on and we were two bottles down. "Ash I think I may have over calculated how much wine we'd be able to handle" She bursted out in laughter and it was hard to not follow suite. "Babes I need to head to bed before I yack pizza all over the place" I scrunched my face at her and she laughed again. "Go go, I'll clean up in here" She nodded and made her way to her room, closing her door behind her. 

   I quickly washed our wine glasses and put them away before stumbling back to the living area and taking the full bottles of wine and putting them away. I then placed the empty bottles in the recycling bin and took the box of pizza and placed it in the fridge. The apartment door opened and I turned to Axel who was studying me intently. "Why are you still up princess?" I giggled and stumbled into his arms. "Ashley and I were watching movies, there's pizza in the fridge" He smiled down at me and gently grabbed the back of my neck. "You smell like wine, how much?" I giggled again and he rose a brow at me. "You're pretty" He shook his head smiling and kissed my forehead. "So are you, now how much wine did you have?".

   "Ashley and I split two bottles" He sighed and dropped his head. "Let's get you to bed yeah?" I nodded smiling and he walked me to our room and sat me on the bed. He took my hair out of the bun it was in and gently messaged my head then kissed me before taking my shirt off. He made me stand and placed my hands on his shoulders as he slid my jeans down and sat me back down before going to my dresser and pulling out a t-shirt. He slipped it on me and helped me under the covers before he got himself situated. He got in bed next to me and pulled me into his chest giving me a quick kiss to my forehead before I completely knocked.
