"I think I saw a bar when we were driving up here." Harry said quietly, breaking the silence.

Jessica merely nodded her head, her lips pressed into a thin line.

Harry glanced at her worriedly, his eyebrows furrowed in concern. Keeping one hand on the steering wheel, he reached over and turned on the radio.

'Say something I'm giving up on you

I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you

Anywhere I would've followed you

Say something I'm giving up in you'

A strangled sob emitted from Jessica's pursed lips.

"Oh! Oh my, are you okay? Stupid question, of course you're not. I'm sorry, I'll just change the station." Harry gushed frantically, his hands fumbling with the dial. He hastily twisted the knob, and let out a breath as a different song came on.

"Thank you." Jessica said quietly.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't realize that that song would come on, I should have changed the station sooner." Harry said hastily.

"It's fine don't-"

"And now you have 'Stay' by Rihanna next for all you brokenhearted lovers!"

'Ooh ooh ooh, the reason I hold on

Ooh ooh ooh, 'cause I need this hole gone

Funny you're the broken one but I'm the only one who needed saving

'Cause when you never see the light it's hard to know which one of us is craving'

"No..." Jessica gasped, her eyes widening, tears blurring her vision.

"Oh fuck, shit I'm sorry." Harry cursed, quickly changing the station again.

Jessica sniffled a bit, wiping her nose on the hem of her shirt.

'You see her when you close your eyes

Maybe one day you'll understand why

Everything you touch surely dies

Well you only need the light when to burning low

Only miss he sun when it starts to snow

Only know your lover when you let her go

And you let her go'

"Are you fucking kidding me?" Jessica yelled in frustration.

"Wow, okay I'm just going to turn this off now." Harry mumbled, stabbing the button to turn the radio off.

Jessica angrily wiped her cheeks and sat there in stony silence.

"I think we're here." Harry announced, pulling into the run down parking lot of a little country bar.

"The Drunken Saloon?" Harry questioned.

Jessica shrugged indifferently. "Who gives a damn what it's called. As long as they have the booze, I'm not complaining."

Harry looked at her before nodding. He grabbed the door and held it open for her.

Jessica who immediately made a beeline to the bar. She slipped onto a bar stool and signaled to the bar tender. "Hey, can you do a girl a favor and send me the strongest drink you have?"
