*Vic's POV*
I've managed to avoid Kelly for two days but they were the worst days of my life. The farther I stayed away from her, the more I thought of her. I needed to get her out of my mind.

I needed a drink.

I left my office and stumbled into Erin, "Oh!"

"Oh shít, sorry Erin," I picked up the papers she had dropped.

"Where are you going in such a hurry?" She asked.

"I'm going out," I didn't want to be questioned further, "Laters, Erin."

I found myself at Jaime's club, mostly because the drinks were free for us exclusively.

"Well look what the cat dragged in!" Jack greeted me.

"Hey, Jack," I smiled and took a seat at the bar, "Slow business day, huh?"

"It's Wednesday, what could you expect? Besides, it's only three p.m."

"What?" I looked down at my watch, "Well shít, looks like you're right."

"So tell me Vic, I'm here to listen to all your sorrows," he handed me a beer, getting one for himself while he was at it.

"I don't know, Jack, I don't think this is something I can talk about," he could tell Jaime for all I knew and I didn't want that.

As if reading my thoughts, he said, "If you're worried about me telling Jaime I cross my heart that I won't say anything."

Jack was an easy person to talk to, "Do you think it's possible to love two people at once?"

"An old friend once told me if you love two people at the same time, choose the second one. Because if you truly loved the first one, you wouldn't have fallen for the second."

I sat there in confusion until I remembered where I heard that quote, "Seriously, Jack? Johnny Depp was an old friend of yours?"

"Hey, you can't blame a man for trying," he drank his beer.

"I guess you kind of have a point," I drank the last remains of my beer, "Give me something stronger."

He sighed, "You know the rules," he extended his palm and I rolled my eyes, handing him my car keys.

I guess it was good to have a safety precaution.

"I'm ready to go home nowww!" I laughed as I drank straight from the bottle of tequila.

"Vic, you're out of control," Jack crossed his arms on his chest, "Give me your phone."

I shook my head, "Nope! That ain't happening."

"You're lucky Jaime is out of town for a business meeting," he glared at me, "I would've called him to pick you up."

"Gimme my keyss," I whined, "Keyssss! I sound like a snake, sssssss."

"That's it, I'm taking you to my house," he was about to come around the counter when I stopped him.

"Okay, okay! I'll remain calm," I put on a straight face and looked directly at him but I burst out into laughter, "I need a minute, I'm going to the bathroom."

"That's if you can even walk towards there," he muttered.

I noticed there was a back door so I quickly ran towards it and ended up slamming myself into it, "Oops, sorry door."

I didn't exactly know where I was headed, I didn't have the keys to my car and Jack had my wallet. All I had was my phone but everything was moving too much to even read what my phone said.

I wandered around, letting my legs guide me to wherever they felt like going. I stopped on my tracks when I realized I was around the company, meaning Kelly's RV must be nearby.

I don't know how, but I managed to walk towards it, "Kellyyyy! Open the goddamn doorrrrr," I whined.

I saw the lights flicker on as she peeped through the curtains, giving me a tired and confused look.

She opened the door and stepped outside with a giant hoodie, "Vic, it's two in the morning," she rubbed her eyes.

"It is?" I looked at my watch, "Oh... I guess it is."

She sniffed the air, "Are... Are you drinking alcohol?" She came closer and shook her head, "I never knew you drank."

"I don't," oh god, my stomach started feeling uneasy.

I stumbled towards a nearby trash can and threw up, I felt her rub my back as she held my hair away from my face, "What are you doing here all drunk? It's dangerous."

"I dunno," I shrugged but came to the realization that I had thrown up in her presence, "S-Sorry, I'll be going home now."

I was about to walk away but she grabbed my arm, "You're crazy if you think I'm going to let you leave in the state that you're in."

She dragged me inside and laid me down on her bed. She grabbed a cloth and dampened it, wiping it over my face. She handed me a glass of water and ordered me to drink it so I did as told. She helped me get out of my suit and took off my shoes, making me feel like a giant baby.

"Go to sleep, we'll talk in the morning," she ordered.

"Where are you going to sleep?" I asked, I didn't want to take away her spot.

"I'll sleep on the floor," she said simply.

"There's no way I'm letting a lady sleep on the floor while I'm here," I was about to stand up but she pushed me down.

"Stop being stupid, just stay there!"

"I think we both fit," I pulled her in and wrapped my arms around her as she squirmed.

"Viiiiiiic!" She yelled, "This is a bed for one, not two!"

"We're both skinny people," I yawned, "I just don't want you sleeping on the floor."

She sighed in defeat, "Fine. I hope you know that as soon as you wake up I'm going to punch you in the face."

"Mhm," I closed my eyes, I felt her wrap her arms around me as I held her tighter.

I never wanted this night to end, who knew when I was going to have a chance to cuddle with her again?

Idk if you guys remember but in an interview, Jaime said that when Vic gets drunk he gets very touchy (in a non-creepy way). Idk about you guys but I think that's adorable.
