Hercules's POV

I sat at the bar, looking at Drunken couples.

People are puppets held together with string

I wanted nothing more than to be with Y/n, but when she found out I've been drinking, she got Angry and kicked me out of the house

There's a beautiful sadness that runs through him

" Yo Herc! Stop day dreaming and have a couple of shots! " My Friend, John Yelled. I rolled my eyes and walked over to where him, Laf and Alex were sitting. " hey guys? " Alex paused his drinking. " what's up " " I need help, how do I earn Y/n's Trust back? "

As he asked me to pray to the God, he doesn't believe in

Laf looked at me like I was on crack or something. " Easy Mon Ami, Just stop drinking " " What?! " " yeah loosen up will ya? " " Excuse me, But YOU guys called ME over here to drink with you " We were silent for a second before John said " That's a lie " " Whatever, i'm going somewhere else " It was time for me to face my fears. But it was impatiently growing inside me, What do I say to Y/n?

Time and again boys are raised to be men, impatient they start, fearful they end

I realized I still had the drink in my hand, I looked at it questionly. I Mentally Cursed and sat down at the table I was at, and hesitated to take a huge sip.

But here was a man, Mourning tomorrow

I took a huge drink. ' no more '
Then no more went to one, then two seven three. I lost count at how many shots I took. I did it again, I was Binge Drinking, this is Exactly why Y/n kicked me out of the house

He drank, then finally, Drowned in his sorrow.

" I CAN'T TAKE IT!!!! I'M MARCHING UP TO OUR HOUSE RIGHT NOW!!!! "
I stood up and walked straight to Our House.

He could not break surface tension

Before I headed over there I went to Thomas's Mansion.

He looked, in the wrong place for redemption.

' no, not now, I got to go to Y/n '

Y/n POV

I was scrolling through Instagram, Liking Every post that I see when I Suddenly heard a knock on my door. I sighed and got up, part of me was hoping it would be Hercules finally realizing what he's doing is wrong. I opened it and there was Herc, staring at me with wild, pleading eyes.

"PLEASEFORGIVEMEIKNOWWHATIDIDWASWRONGANDIWILLNEVERDOITAGAINBABEIMISSYOUSOMUCHWILLYOUFORGIVEME-"  " HERC HERC "
He looked at me with the same Begging eyes and I shook my head.

Don't look at me with those eyes

" Herc, you know how I feel about people drinking.... " " I know I know, I'm awful sorry "

I tried to unheave the ties

" Herc, Drinking Killed most of my family members, I kicked you out because I wanted you to see where it will lead " I had flashbacks of my father and mother, both alcoholics, die right in front of me.

Turn back the time that drew him

I then remembered my brother, got into a fight over a bottle of whiskey. I tried to stop him, but the guns were already drawn, he got shot

He couldn't be saved

I broke down into tears and Herc immediately started hugging me.
" oh my god, I'm such an idiot, I promise to never drink EVER again "

Herc's POV

" I promise to never drink EVER again " even though those words hurt me, I had to say it, I wasn't gonna lose Y/n Again. " I love you Y/n " Y/n looked at me, wiped her tears away, then responded " I love you too "

A sadness runs through him. Through him

Word count: 666
A/n WHOOOO believe it or not it was made up in my weird ass mind.

Stay strong Stay positive and don't forget to be nice to each other
