Me: Anyway you could be a babe and get some milk.


Babe: Almond milk?


Me: No, regular milk. Moonshine's sick :(


Babe: Sure baby, no problem :*


Me: Thank you :*


I flipped onto my stomach and groaned, "Get your lazy ass up, and put a pizza in for your boyfriend" I told myself. I slowly sat up and walked over turning the oven on. Grabbing the bottle of Jack from the cabinet I mixed it in a taller glass with coke and took a few sips.


About half an hour later he showed up, tired from a group practice. "Eat" he said bumping the slice against my lips. "Im not hungry" "yes you are" he started to flap his wings so I rewraped him in the blanket. I scratched the underside of his chin holding thr baby bottle back to him. "He would want you to eat." "Ricky" he held it back up and I took a bite.


"Here trade me, you eat and ill feed him." "But" "Sage" " Fine." I carefully traded him the piece for the small mammal. "How was your practice?" "Shit, we already know them. But they find it nessicarry to make us practice." "Im sorry" "What about you baby?"  I couldn't speak my smile was glued so tightly to my face. "Your so cute." He wrapped his other arm around my shoulder and gave me a lengthy kiss.


I lay cuddled up to his chest  "well, I would like to live in Pennsylvania, But it wouldn't have to be Scranton." "Yeah, it be too wierd anywhere really far away." A loud screech can from the cage and I scrambled to turn the light on. Bones was in the cage fighting with the two, "Holy shit" Rick jumped up and ran towards the cage. But the squeekes continued as he ran out of the room with him in his mouth.


He followed him out in a sprint, and I ran over grabbing the remaining bat. A small bit of his wing was torn and he was panicked. I held a tissue to the wing and blurred out his yelling to the cat. I wiped the tears falling down my face and curled up on the with Moonshine.


A few minutes later he walked in but there wasn't panic in him something else. He was quiet. Putting the cat in the large cage. "Ricky where is she?" "Okay, now stay in here."  "No, where is she." "Ill be back give me a few minutes." He walked out and I couldn't hear anything, only his footsteps echoing.


When he did come back and threw the cat outside of the door and locked it placing the one from in my hands inside of the cage.  " Ricky" I started my lip trembling. "Baby im so sorry." He bent down and wrapped his arms around me in a loose hug.


The tears poured out until my eyes ran dry, I just stared at the clock '3:47am' lit up in green letters. I knew he was asleep, so I carefully unwrapped myself and wandered into the kitchen.  I grabbed my car keys and headed to the gas station getting the largest bottle of whatever would do the job.


When I did get home I drunk the entire bottle and started on my own personal collection. Downing everything I could find until everything just became blur of color. I reached for a different  glass from the cabinet, but one fell and shattered on the floor. I ignored it and grabbed on filling in with moonshine. I got most of it down at one time. "Sage?" The harsh light flipped on scarring me and hurting my eyes.


"Baby come here" he started holding me again and I collapsed on the floor. "Hey, calm down, it was an accident." " Now shes dead because of me." " i can't understand you.But you smell like your a bottle past drunk, so lets get back to bed. Ill clean this mess up." He picked me up and tucked me in. "Ill be back" in a minute he was and cuddled me until I passed out.
