Make it Home

September 4th

Dream's POV
6:30am

I felt an impression on the side of the bed beside me so I lazily turned over and noticed it was August. What time is it? I figured it's now morning since some light escaped into the room from the outside.

August "Can you close dat shit?" He asked in a groggy voice referring to the blinds.

Dream "Are you now getting in?" I asked realizing that he went somewhere last night.

August "Strip club." He said with his face slumped in his pillow.

Dream "Ok." I said feeling some type of way.

I got up and closed the curtains like he requested then got back into bed.

August "Ma head hurt like a muthaf*cka." He mumbled.

Dream "I should have some Tylenol in my bag I'll get you some water." Said hopping off the bed grabbing my rob in the process.

August "..." he didn't respond so I went downstairs quickly to grab a bottle of water and the pills from the room where my bag was in then returned.

Dream "August?" I asked sitting on the bed beside him.

You can tell his head really hurt from the painful expression he had on his face.

August "Sup?"

Dream "I need you to sit up so you could drink the pills."

August "Dem shits nasty as f*ck."

Dream "They're pills, how are they nasty?" I asked chucking under my breath.

August "Cud neva get dem past ma throat." He said in his raspy voice causing me to chuckle again. "Deh always get stuck right hea." He said sluggishly pointing to his throat.

Dream "Come on let me show you how. Promise it will make you feel better."

August "..."

Dream "Auggie please don't give me a hard time."

August "Mayne." He said sucking his teeth at me yet still sitting up.

Dream "Ok, the best way to do it is by filling your mouth with lots of water then putting the pill in and swallowing everything together."

August "Aight cum on cuz I'm tryna go ta sleep." He said taking the pills and water bottle from me.

I watched him as he did exactly what I said but miserably failed choking causing the water from his
mouth to splash on me.

Dream "Omg, are you ok?" I asked as I patted his back while he coughed hysterically.

He then took off for the bathroom so I followed behind. I found him throwing up in the toilet. I felt really bad for him cause I saw how miserable he was.

After he was done, he sat on the floor leaning his head against the sink.

Dream "Poor baby." I cooed. "Here, you need a shower." I said reaching for his shirt to take it off. My right hand hit something hard in his waist causing me to winch in pain for a second. "Ow." I said sucking on my fingers.
