May Mariana's POV
"Arthur! Listen to me and go to bed" I shouted. "Fuck off" he grumbled I sighed, looking to Ada, who held her hands up
"Don't look at me" she said "Go to bed. Or I'll take the opium out of your coat, out of your boot, I'll ransack your fucking car" I threatened.
He stumbled up the stairs, grumbling to himself about me "Thank you" she said sadly "He needs sense knocking into him" I said
"He needs his brother to pick him up" she said instead "And I'm guessing he isn't" I said "No. He's on a mission" she said boredly
"Still not drinking?" I asked
She shook her head "No, he says water gives him a clear mind" she said "Water will drown him" I said He was too wrapped up in Polly's grief and his own hatred for Michael.

"Did you hear from Micheal?" I asked "No, he's not talked to any of us since they left" she said "Shacked up with the new family?" I joked
"Seems so" she shrugged, leaning against the counter "And you? How is your new family?" She asked
"I don't know" I said honestly
After me and Alfie woke up beside each other once again, we hadn't spoken much Two weeks had gone by of us yet again falling into ways to avoid each other "Have you slept with him?" She asked slowly, I looked up, to her analysing my face
"No" I lied, her eyes narrowed "You did" she smiled "Fine I did" I said
"And?" She asked "And what?" I asked. I was sick of people asking Are you getting back together? How do you feel? How does he feel?
