Jay stares at the distance as he mindlessly plays with his beer bottle, He couldn't believe it still, He wouldn't believe it. his brain and heart were fighting, his brain yelling to finally face the truth, while his heart still aches, crying that it's all just a dream, trying to convince his brain to make him wake up from this nightmare. He breathed in deeply, trying to fight the tears. She would've want him to be strong right? She would laugh mockingly as he cries, in a weird way, trying to make him feel better. He laughs silently as he remembers it, she was failing miserably, and she ended up being depressed at the end, saying that it depresses her to see the love of her life all crying and sad, what a child. as he remembers it, he continues to stifle a cry, his heart aching. People walks up to him, trying to comfort him and recall the memories they had with her, he ignores them. He took a swig of his beer and bit his lip as it trembles. Siva shuffled to his side, all worried

"Are you alright mate?" He asked, Jay chuckled. he shook his head and finished his beer in one gulp, having this shot of alcohol inside him, his plan for tonight, getting so drunk that he would forget all this, even if it's only for a night.

"Do I need to answer the obvious Seev?" Jay retorted, Siva sighed, he turns to face the visitors, half were laughing their problems away as others grieved for a great loss. Siva knew that all Jay needed for now was to be alone, he doesn't need to hear people's stories as it reminds him more of her. The more he tries to forget the main problem, they try to remind him, figuratively slapping him at the face.

"Just take it in for a little while now, it's past 11 already, they'll leave." Siva said, he reached out to Jay for a comforting hug to him, but he just avoided him. Oh, he really needs to be alone now. As Siva's prediction was right, after a while, all was left were The Wanted, their girlfriends and some of their closest friends- or as she may call, the Power group. They huddled around Jay, worried. Drunk Jay stared at them, his eyes pleading for personal time.

"Jay, we're a bit worried, why don't you sleep in my flat for tonight?" Nathan offered, Jay shook his head, he tried to stand up, trying to get away from them, but then he was too drunk to even walk. He fell to the floor as Max and Tom sprinted to his side, Jay swings his arms towards them, shooing them.

"I don't need any help, I need to go home... She's waiting for mee" He slurred, he tried to get up and once again, slipped, now caught by Max. He strapped his arms to the drunkard, helping him stand up.

"MAAAXX, hheeellpp me home.." Jay slurred off "She might get angry... It's late!" He shouted, He wobbled as he walked, just showed how intoxicated he is. 

"Oh Jay.." Kelsey trailed off as she saw one of her best mate so crushed.  She fights off the tears with the lads as they remember why he was acting like this, It's not only his loss, it's also theirs. But they understood that Jay was the most affected one, it's expected. He blamed it all on himself. There's nothing that they can do to make him feel better at the moment, even if he's drunk, his mind is still set one thing and one thing only... Lilah.

 Nathan volunteered to get Jay home as the rest of the lads took care of getting Jay in the car. Nathan Scarlet a kiss good night and She drove away with Max and Michelle. Tom can't bear to think that there might be complication if Nathan was the only one managing Jay. He asked Kelsey to drive home alone for tonight, promising that he'll come back home the next morning. She drove away the same time Siva and Nareesha left. Tom struggled to enter the backseat as Jay keeps closing the car door, believing that Nath has a crazy car door that kept on opening while it moves. Later,  Nathan tries to drive safely while as he saw his best friend going crazy at the backseat, which includes distracting him from driving. It was an hour long drive of him shouting, worrying about the possibly angry Lilah. Finally reached his home, they had another struggle of carrying Jay into his home. It wasn't hard enough though, He, himself, tried hard to get into their home, waiting for the only solution for all this problem of his...
