By the time I had woken up three hours had passed. I still felt drugged up.

I accidentally knocked a glass right off my bedside table. "Asher? Are you okay?"

He was right outside my door.

I didn't want to answer. I really didn't want to. My mind hurt so bad and no words would come, just like they had in the beginning.

"Ash!" The doorknob tugged hard, I ripped a piece of paper and quickly wrote YES. before shooting it under the door. I sat quietly against it.

"Why aren't you talking?" Sweet Pea questioned through the door, suspicious but full of curiosity.

"Because she's in shut down mode, idiot. Did you not see her face? Whatever you did fucking snapped her in half, Snake." I heard Reggie snap at him, clearly near by.

"You're the one getting her drunk!" Sweet Pea snapped back at him.

"She's gonna do it either way! Usually it's a day of it and that's it, she stopped even answering my texts okay? I fucking let you guys in okay? Clearly I'm worried too. She's gonna be pissed at me." Reggie explained, getting quieter as he spoke.

"Is she gonna talk again?" Sweet Pea murmured to the Bulldog.

"I don't know, man. She didn't talk for four months and then barely spoke for another eight until she met you." It was a grumble by the end and it made tears rise. I changed completely once I met him.

"Why?" Sweet Pea asked which only made Reggie sigh.

"I don't know? What do you mean why? She met you and she didn't even wanna give me the time of day anymore. She fucking liked you, asshole. She doesn't give up on you unless you do something really messed up. What did you do?" I can imagine Reggie's scrunched up angry face as he spoke.

"I started a huge fight with her and freaked out. And then left her in the middle of the night." Sweet Pea answered slowly, I felt his head hit against the door.

Reggie was silent for a minute. "Was this Friday night?" I couldn't help but flinch as I could hear the disappointment in his voice.

It's as if I can feel Sweet Pea nod, "How'd you know?"

Reggie sighed loudly, "She came back. Picked me up at 4 am. I figured she just had a nightmare, not a fight with you."

Sweet Pea hummed a little, "Saw her drive past, hoped it wasn't to you."

"I'm her comfort man, she's mine. She's my rock. I was never hers though. Cheated on her all the time, don't ask why." I hear a quick movement on the floor.

"Ow! Fuck!" I hear Reggie shout, I turn my head quickly as if I would be able to look out of the door.

"You deserved that, asshole!" I couldn't help but roll my eyes at Sweet Pea, clearly having assaulted Reggie for his confession.
