He was devoured.


Completely and utterly ruined.


Who knew that a girl would make him return to his old habits again. He thought that those addictions were behind him, he wanted them gone - needed them gone. But now they're back, and all because of a stupid, petty argument.


You just wanted to see more of him, that's all. Just more intimate time spent with your boyfriend on a regular basis - Not too much to ask, was it? But of course, they had to get in the way. His managers told him that he couldn't and would never be able to get any free time. So they made him choose...


...And that choice ruined him.


So, here he sat, slumped against the side of his bed, half-empty beer bottle in his hand - after the hundreds before, a smoking ash tray nearby where he'd just about gathered the effort to extinguish his last cigarette of his 9th packet. He rested his head back against the mattress, closing his raw and red eyes, breathing deeply. No more tears to fall.


Images of you danced in his mind, quickly being burned by the thought of you not being there. Of you never being there.


He loved you, adored you, thought of nothing else but you. Yet he let you go, just like that. Of course, as soon as he signed those papers and gulped down the first sip of cool beer, he regretted every single thing. The burning he felt in the pit of his stomach, a mix of alcohol, anger and guilt, building up to create a loud and deep scream, his dry throat just about taking a couple of seconds, before silencing him.


He threw the beer bottle with force, a terrifying crash as it smashed against his bedroom door, the tiny pieces of glass, coated in a pool of liquid that could make even the most calm and relaxed person indignant and irritated - the whole reason why he stopped.


Although, he didn't just stop the drinking for himself...He stopped for you. As soon as he saw you at that bar that one, warm, spring night, he realized that love was greater than a pint of bitter. He was so struck by your incredible beauty, he just had to know your name!


That was the one day both you and he will never forget. The both of you caught on like a house on fire, but had no idea that the house that once burned so brightly had the darkest ash.


The both of you decided to go on a few more dates before making it official. You met his parents, and he met yours. You all seemed to like each other. It was then that you thought that he was your one true love, until you found out his drinking addiction.


Initially, you were shocked, but you stayed with him to help him through this - you loved him after all. One time, that dreadful time, when you saw him what he really was like totally drunk. He was scary and nothing like you remembered of him at all. He left you with that scar up your forearm. Immediately, you went to hospital and had all the glass taken out and had to have stitches. The next day, when he had sobered up, he'd some to your door in floods of tears, telling you how much he was sorry and how much he hated himself for being such an idiot. It was then that he promised to you that he wouldn't drink again - not to that extent anyway.


After the incident, you both continued to be in a happy and healthy relationship, until the sudden comeback. EXO had just come back to the music world with their latest single, 'Overdose'. You were so ecstatic for your boyfriend and his friend's sudden rise in popularity, but suddenly became slightly heartbroken at how strict his schedule was. Performance after performance after performance started to take it's toll on both him and you. All you wanted to do was spend at least a night with him, to hold him and just be with him - but it seemed that that was just a dream to hold on to.


Then, you finally told him how you felt. About how you hated that fact that you used to be so close, and had now fallen apart. He said that he felt the same, but even worse as it was 'his fault', but you reassured him that it wasn't. You pleaded him to try to sort something out, to which he did - but failed.An argument sparked and how you wished it didn't...


...Which is how you find yourself now.


You stayed in your bed, cuddled up with your duvet and tear/makeup-stained pillow, with nothing but a melancholy filled room. After the first few days, you found that you were all cried out.


You then started to get up a little, only to grab something small to eat and to drink, nothing much. It was strange how much your chest felt heavy, like you heart had actually broken in half and was now laying in your chest, gloomy and morose.


Whenever the phone rang, you ignored it. It just blended into the dull and drab background of your so-called 'life'. This time, as it rang, you thought about answering it, but just stood there, staring at the phone and just let it go to voicemail. You turned away, but the voice stopped you.


"_-_-___..." The familiar, deep and weak voice crackled through the telephone line.


"___, please, if you can hear this," He sniffed, the slurred voice sounded fatigued. You stay where you were, frozen by the drunk voice making you feel so many expressions. "I-I know you really hate me, b-but please, listen to me. I know that things have been hard and...I've mistreated you so much and you don't deserve anything I-I-I did, but...I-It's late and I just had to let you know that I still love you..."


He paused.


"...I may be drunk, j-just a little, but I do, truly love you ___. I know that somewhere, deep down in that gentle, broken heart of yours - you love me too...Heh, maybe I'm just being stupid. Anyway, please talk to me soon, I never did, and never will stop loving you. Yours forever, Krissy-bear."


You raised your hand to your eyes and placed them over the skin of your eyelids. You let out a ferocious and loud sob, coupled by more and more. Your crying made you weak, suddenly causing your knees to buckle and make you come crashing down onto the floor in a sad and weeping heap.


"I-I love you t-too..." You sniffed through your harsh sobs.


It seems that he wasn't the only one that was devoured...
