"Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you."

Noah's POV
I was wasn't up to going to school today. After Carter left me last night, I set out to do what I intended, to get drunk.
Great call Noah.
I got drunk last night and I wasn't ready to pay the consequences. That being a massive hangover this morning. It was like 12:00 and I was still reeling from last night.
I check my phone and see a text from Carter.
From Carter:
To Noah:
"Hey, wya. Imy."
To Carter:
From Noah:
"I'm home, not feeling well. Come to my house straight after school, we'll talk then. See you".
I go back to sleep before Carter comes, I don't want her to see me like this. I set an alarm so I can take some aspirin, drink some water and eat some bread to sober me up.
2 hours later
School ended already and Carter's late. She's always punctual.
From Noah:
To Carter:
"Where are you?...class ended 20 mins ago"
She didn't text me back for a little, but then after a while I heard a knock at the door. I tried to fix myself before answering the door.
When I open the door I see the girl I love looking worried out of her mind.
You shouldn't of got drunk, she's on to you.
You think I don't know that, Damn.
"Hey", I say a little more edge to my voice than normal. I guess that bread and shit didn't sober me up, like I thought it would.
Carter looks at me skeptically before answering."You're hung over that's why you didn't come to class today?".
The question comes out like more of a 'I already know just tell me the truth' type statements. It surprises the hell out of me and guilt immediately fills my emotions. I looked down and away from her eyes, I can't lie to her. Whoever implemented the thought that it's better to tell the truth, sucks.
She walks away from me and I can't let her go. "Carter wait!"
"Carter please", I beg her. I'm finally ready to get what I need to off my chest.
"Carter!!" I grabbed her arm.
"What the hell do you want!?", She screamed at me hurt evident in her voice.
"To talk to you, why won't you let me?", I had pleaded to her. You're probably thinking he needs to grow some balls and stop begging like a baby. Well if you knew why I get like this with her, and only her, you would understand.
"Why would I want to talk to a drunk, your going down that path again and I don't want to watch your own self-destruction", she says. I have to admit that cut deep.
"You don't understand so let me explain", I say this calmly trying to hold my composure.
"Not while your hungover, like I said I don't want to talk to the drunk Noah, I wanna talk to my sober boyfriend Noah".
