Sleep Token- "Chokehold"

Time passed

Y/N's POV

I couldn't go back to sleep. I tossed and turned all morning. I fucking gave up. It's like I never can get a break. I turned on my music loud enough that I just wanted to drown out my thoughts. Silence my demons, cut the tears. Fuck, anything to make this pain stop

I called the guys if they wanted to do anything, didn't get a call back from neither of them. Guessing probably still asleep, ugh

I decided to get in the shower and find whatever to wear, I decided to visit Katherine. I debated about driving or walking over to her house, fuck it I'll drive

Bell rings

Katherine answers, greeting me and then inviting me inside

"Sorry, I wasn't expecting anyone today!" She says, grabbing water from the kitchen then offering it to me. I tell her "Thank you" and sit down in the living room with her

"So what brings you here?" Kat asks, pouring another glass of wine down in her glass cup.

"I just wanted to see how you were...that's all" And with the looks of it, Kat's having the time of her life....she was smiling til now

"Oh. I'm..." She pauses "still processing. I haven't gotten any news back from the doctors yet" She gulps down her glass

Kat seemed warily now that Patrick was mentioned. I can't imagine how she's feeling...

"Are you okay, Kat?" I ask when she zones out. Seemed like she went off the deep end for a bit

"Oh yeah! I'm okay, I just had a bad week at work and looked forward to this wine all day. Oh I'm sorry, I'm going off on a tangent! How are you, honey?" She asks me, eyes widened; acting even more weird. Her stiletto nails tapping against the glass

"If I had to be honest..." I sigh, I wanted to say how I really feel but I couldn't. I didn't want to break again, my tongue covering the roof of my mouth, to stop the fucking crying. Blinking the threatening tears away, yet trying to breath as steady as I could

Kat frowns, wine glass now lowered in her hand. "You're not doing well..." She points out. Now setting the glass back down. "Oh honey. It's okay" She reaches out to me. I stiffed when she pulled me close and kept me in her warm embrace.
