Joey's Pov

I wake up the next morning once again, hungover. I feel as if I'm going to puke. I sit up and see everything in a blur. I look over at the clock and see the time.

"11:30" I whisper to myself.

"Better get ready for Alyssa." I say, satcasm in my voice.

I start to stand up, but fall back onto the bed when I feel light-headed.

"Shit. "

I sigh then text Alyssa, (I know, shocking).

Joey: Hey, would u mind bringing me some bottled water when u come?

Alyssa: sure, I guess.  b there in 20.

Joey: cool, thanks.

I won't even bother showering for her. I'm hoping the water will help. I don't exactly like tap water, which is all I have.

I heard the doorbell ring shortly after. I get up to answer it, seeing spots as I walk.

"Joey hey!"

"Hi Alyssa."

"I brought you waters! Just like you asked! Haven't been to the groccery store lately?" she said, smiling at me.

"Uh, yeah." I respond.

As I show her in, she immediately sits on the couch. Looking straight at me.

"Let's cut the crap, Joe." she says to me, no longer smiling.

"First of all, it's Joe-y, and second, what exactly do you mean?" I say, taking a sip of one if the waters.

"I know Joey."

I look at her, expecting her to elaborate.

"I know about your alcoholism."

"I am not  a fucking alcoholic!" I say, my voice raising again.

"I knew I shouldn't have let you come over. " I say,  venom in my voice.

"Joey, you need help! you were drunk at my wedding! That's why you left early! "

"You lied to me."

"Joey I-

"You LIED to me! You said you wanted to be friends...... You just want to ruin my life!" I say, now screaming my lungs out.

"No, Joey please, I-" she started to say but I cut her off.

"JUST. LEAVE. "

Then she left.

And I fell to my knees and cried.
