Hard Road
“Stay true to your friends
Cause they’ll save you in the end”-Sam Roberts
He stumbles from his impromptu bed on the couch, nearly falling over hastily discarded shoes and clothes. Makes it into the bathroom just in time.
He would smile at the pathetic sight of himself hanging his head into the toilet bowl if he wasn’t too busy puking his brains out.
He stops thinking about it once he feels those small, cool hands on his forehead. He hates anyone seeing him like that.
Doesn’t complain though, when the low murmur of Scots accented English fills his ears as he’s gently cleaned up and led back to the sofa.
Water fills his dry mouth and he drinks it down greedily.
“Better?” he nods, his eyes still closed and the ridiculous notion of him looking like a sickly kitten rises in his head.
If the drink and his life don’t kill him, his sense of humour will. He’s sure of it.
The image is reinforced when his body decides to snuggle up into as much of Billy’s lap as he possibly can.
Billy only laughs softly and begins to stroke his hair, soothing him back to the darkness of sleep.
Dom feels like he’s gonna start to purr any minute now. He’s never felt so warm and so safe as he does at that point.
He doesn’t realize exactly how much time has passed, but he knows that he’s literally on the verge of sleep when he hears Billy’s muttered question.
He doesn’t reply.
He pretends to sleep instead, opting for subterfuge rather than truth at that moment.
Maybe sometime, someday, he’ll be able to tell Billy why.
Why he goes out when he can to get sodden drunk.
And why he only lands on Billy’s door-step right after.
But for now, he’d rather be saved by his friend than heart-broken by a possible love.
It shreds him like squeezing broken glass through his palms, but that pain is more preferable than being tossed out on the street.
He sleeps.
End.
