RESCUE - Part 2

Chapter 33 - what you done?

6.00am, my head was banging, far too much to drink from the previous night, far far too much, I sighed heavily at the thought of going to work, so sooo early, it'd been a two weeks since I'd had that argument with mum, I hadn't contacted her, she hadn't with me, she was happy with Timothy and there was nothing that I could say or do that would make her change her mind, nothing. As I laid looking at the ceiling, willing my body to drag itself up when mouse came in, creeping through the door "I'm coming I sear, just, I need some tablets, I'll grab some in a moment, I just need ten more minutes" "and you can have them...." I looked up at him, confused until I saw something in his hands "Awww, you've bought me flowers!" He walked over to me slowly, holding out this big bunch of flowers, I looked at him "what you done?" "Nothing can't I surprise my adoring, beautiful, loving sexy ass of a wife?" "What you broke?" "Nothing my fancy pants gal" "Michael...." "You're mother is downstairs" "phew hid behind his hands "what." "You're mother...is down-" "I HEARD THAT BIT! WHY...." I sighed heavily "why is she downstairs?" "She barged in the front door...." "Then barge her back out" I got out of bed and walked to the bathroom, getting in the shower as mouse sat on the toilet lid "I'm not talking to her" "well you can't just ignore her" "yeah? Try me?".

I walked downstairs, and there she was, sat at the table, I ignored her, what I couldn't ignore was all the empty wine bottles, whiskey bottles sat on the table "Charlie, Jenkison, sit" "I'm not a dog" "you will sit and you will talk to me" "I will not, and I won't, I'm going to work, you know where the front door is yeah, please use it" I pulled my hair from the towel as I grabbed my car keys "how much are you drinking Charlie, are you drinking all of this?" "I'm 40 years old, I can have a drink if I like" "how much are you drinking!" "I'm not having this conversation, because yknow what, I don't have too, you've chosen Timothy, I don't care anymore, I'm going to work goodbye, lock the door on the way out" I stormed out the house and sat in my car, waiting for mouse.

Driving along the road, mouse kept looking at me, "say it" "what?" "You think I'm drinking too much" "I...-" "I do it to forget...." I looked at him before back at the road quickly "char-" "I've tried sleeping, I've tried watching shows, I've tried burying my head, but nothing makes me forget more than having a few drinks...I'm not an alcoholic" "I never said you were Charlie, but that was a lot of bottles on that table" he rubbed my knee "Michael...I'm not an alcoholic, I enjoy a drink, and I enjoy the fact it makes me forget, I don't rely on the alcohol, I just use it to escape sometimes" "I believe you I just..I worry about you" "and I worry about you, that's our jobs, to worry about people, each other" "Charlie you know what I mean" "I know...look from now, I'll drink less okay?" "Charlie I....thank you" "I'm not an alcoholic....I couldn't do that to you, or the kids, but I need something to stop me from constantly being reminded, that she's chosen that bastard, And that bastard hurt her, but....but trying to forget those horrible things she said to me, Michael it's hard" "we'll figure something out, okay?" "okay."

That afternoon, I was sat in the lifeguard tower, munching on the most amazingly taste bud tingling snicker bar ever! when mouse walked in with three men, and a woman, "what's all this?" "Erm, they want me to be in a film" "oh right! What film?" "I'm a vampire..." "Oh god not a twilight remake" "no no miss Charlie, it's a new thing, a one off film, we loved mouse in that episode he did when he saved you and we think he's perfect for the role of Eric garner" "right..." I smiled At mouse who looked extremely nervous "and we were wondering if you'd be the lead woman" "no" i stated plainly "no?" Mouse gasped "Charlie!!" "Mouse, I want you to do this, this is YOUR film, and I'll support you all the way, but if I'm in it, it'll take away your shine, and I think you deserve it more than me, I just want to see who the lead is...first.."....

That night...

"Danneel! DANNEEL IS THE LEAD!" I threw my keys onto the kitchen side, "Charlie I don't have to do this" "no! No no it's fine, just, don't fall for her" "this is how I felt with you and Jensen, because he sai" "I never....well...I" "I won't do it" "you'd better bloody do it! I've got my cheerleading suit for you and everything...whoa wait...he said what?" "We, it was ages ago and we weren't together and I was at the bar, jared and Jensen was there, and they were chatting about celeb crushes...and they were chatting" he began to bumble "right" I pushed "yknow what, it doesn't matter! Whoa!-" I pushed him down on the chair and sat on his lap, wrapping my legs around him and the chair "what did they say?" "This is very hot" "MICHAEL!" "Okay! they were saying the usual, models and then Jensen said you" he said very quickly, okay not gonna lie my heart was racing, "they started talking about, when they have scenes with you they love it, and that I was lucky and that if I didn't have you they would if they weren't married...and why are you smiling like a Cheshire Cat" "Jensen Ackles likes me" "oh god what have I done?" "this is like a fan girls dream..." He raised his eyebrow "oh come on I'm sorry, look, the film will be amazing, and I can't wait to see you in it! Danneel is a babe and I think you two will do great and hey we're all friends right..." "Yes!" "Yes..." "You're still not happy" "please don't make it twilight..." "Oh god I won't! Come with me for the first day" "course I will" I smiled "what's wrong?" "Nothing? I just thought, Jensen is probably thinking the same as me" he pulled back slightly "I'm confused?" "Well you're a hot hunk of meat, Danneel is his wife...you're gonna have some hot scenes...." "Oh my god, please stop, this'll feel so weird" "yeah...you'll be fine!" I kissed his nose and walked to the fridge to grab a can of coke, there sat on the shelf was a bottle of wine...

I shuck it off, grabbed a can of coke and sat back on Mouses knee to watch a film...
