Juice found alaster an hour later, pants down around his ankles and spots of blood on the bedsheets.

The room was dim, lit only by a lamp on the dresser that cast everything in a sick dull yellow glow. The music was muffled now, distant. Alaster was slumped against the headboard, head tilted downward, one arm wrapped around his middle.

Alaster flinched at the sound of his name.

7Please respect copyright.PENANAvQR1FCPAqt
He lifted his head slowly, his eyes glassy and unfocused, he look almost confused at first like he didn't know where he was or how he got there. Then it hit him and his face crumpled.

"Juice" he mummered, his voice was quiet barely there, "don't, dont look at me"
7Please respect copyright.PENANAqr04OTOhqD
7Please respect copyright.PENANA9aGKz8ixAV
7Please respect copyright.PENANAIO1KM4ArrN
Juice moved without thinking, shrugging off his jacket and stepping foward causing alaster to flinch and juice slowed down, mumbling a small "I'm sorry" and he draped his jacket that he somehow aquired during the party over alasters lap, his hands shaking with rage.

"What the fuck happened?" Juice asked roughly following it up with a softer "who did this?"
7Please respect copyright.PENANAiPyvupqODD
7Please respect copyright.PENANAgot3UE18GC
7Please respect copyright.PENANA7qoB9PqxF5
Alaster shook his head weakly the action casuing him to sway, he reached up setting his hands on his face with a slight tremble in them.

"I'm fine" he said automatically. His words were slurred and shaky, "I'm okay, I just...I drank too much. It's my fault."
7Please respect copyright.PENANAvZGa6imH3A
7Please respect copyright.PENANAPdmsqJ2Gwc

7Please respect copyright.PENANAeSDI7DnsPf
7Please respect copyright.PENANAUkmW3MnjAp
7Please respect copyright.PENANAzysGji5iTo
"I said I'm fine!" Alaster snapped sharply then he immediately deflated his shoulders sinking down. "Please dont make this a thing"
7Please respect copyright.PENANAlYcOCZY3b1
7Please respect copyright.PENANAjpLfRMgO4y
7Please respect copyright.PENANAQHsFkYDJbV
Juice knelt down infront of him, lowering himself so they were eye level "look at me"
7Please respect copyright.PENANAXMBc06NgNw
7Please respect copyright.PENANAf2Xuvku6Jw
7Please respect copyright.PENANAaxMCBvglzw
Alaster didn't want to. He kept his gazed fixed on the floor, jaw tensed. Shame radiating off of him.

7Please respect copyright.PENANANQ65lhe2Be
7Please respect copyright.PENANAZxK2PV1AS8
"I..I don't want anyone to know" he whispered "please. Don't tell marcus. Don't tell Jerome. Don't-don't tell anyone"
7Please respect copyright.PENANAdSfci0Iafo
7Please respect copyright.PENANArb7LwOjqIm
7Please respect copyright.PENANA7K89cgi6Sb
Alasters throat bobbed. "Because I let it happen."

"I drank" alaster interrupted him his voice cracking at the end "I went upstairs, I didnt stop him. So just dont, okay?"
7Please respect copyright.PENANAtHADqP8Siu
7Please respect copyright.PENANADBeHUYSqFQ
7Please respect copyright.PENANAyTTcQjkVgq
His breathing was heavy and with a slight hitch.
7Please respect copyright.PENANADMLyvZ2Nau
7Please respect copyright.PENANATnO6SqnOb3
7Please respect copyright.PENANAVdzoNiCrd4
Juice stood slowly, jaw tight, every fiber of his being screaming at him to go find whoever did this and kill them. But alaster was still there, still barely awake, still shaking.
7Please respect copyright.PENANAXYF0Y4pxBW
7Please respect copyright.PENANAQAnYoEwBv9
7Please respect copyright.PENANA2GMiqSu7zZ
"Alright" juice said after a moment, forcing his voice to come out steady "alright. We're not doing anything right now. We're just gonna get you out of here"
7Please respect copyright.PENANAdpB0M6bWda
7Please respect copyright.PENANAIvKVsA3TW0

Juice helped him stand and pull up his pants, keeping a soft but firm grip on him when he nearly buckled over, alaster leaned into him all of his normal stubbornness gone and replaced by pure misery and exhaustion.
7Please respect copyright.PENANAflgASgMQsh
7Please respect copyright.PENANAZ3k68ru8wz

As they made there way to the door alasters fingers twisted into juices shirt fabric. "Please" he whispered "dont make me explain"
7Please respect copyright.PENANAPu3kTKpNRy
7Please respect copyright.PENANAUWzWT86nPy
7Please respect copyright.PENANAcp6YCHK5Bc

Juice guided him down the stairs slowly, one careful step at a time. The party continued around them, People laughing, bodies swaying, people yelling over the music but it all felt distant to Juice.
7Please respect copyright.PENANAV0cDETM77P
7Please respect copyright.PENANA4Xjg2YvCQD
7Please respect copyright.PENANA7aLiIacENT
No one really noticed. Or maybe they did and just didn't care. Juice kept his body angled where he was shielding alaster, one arm around his back and the other holding his wrist.
7Please respect copyright.PENANAMz16RHCcAv
7Please respect copyright.PENANA5GMnK3PyLL

7Please respect copyright.PENANAVYY8T5b3EC
7Please respect copyright.PENANAqMxh8A7QXq
Alaster sucked in a sharp breath, shuddering. His knees buckled for a second on the porch steps, and juice tightened his hold, steadying alaster.
7Please respect copyright.PENANASDhQpGM6MA

"Easy" juice mummered

7Please respect copyright.PENANAflS6lmEK7p
The walk to the car felt longer than it actually was, grass crumpled under there feet with a soft sound, juice opened the passenger door and helped alaster turn gently, he was so gentle for a man who was burning with unimaginable rage.
7Please respect copyright.PENANAVvzR22Lm68
7Please respect copyright.PENANAiaTNNZ2t3Q
7Please respect copyright.PENANAaqVeE0t3gw
As alaster lowered himself into the seat, his body tensed.
7Please respect copyright.PENANA8m1yNI7uVq
7Please respect copyright.PENANAfNiwnVY09i
7Please respect copyright.PENANAOIwb22gPup

7Please respect copyright.PENANA0Yft4Wegy8
7Please respect copyright.PENANA5jJOwsXMns
"It's hurts..." he whispered
7Please respect copyright.PENANA09fnWxAV3W
Juice froze for half a second, hand still braced on alasters side. His jaw tightened so hard it ached.
7Please respect copyright.PENANAU5BJGaBuqq
7Please respect copyright.PENANALNV5DreLWa
7Please respect copyright.PENANA4sl5H9dd0p

7Please respect copyright.PENANAVtd5hd3bh6
He eased the door shut once alaster was settled, then walked around the car and got into the driver's seat. The door closed with a dull thud.

7Please respect copyright.PENANAe5KtJLedKb
Streetlights passed in broken fast intervals, casting brief bands of light across alasters face. He stared straight foward, hands clenched together in juices jacket that he still was carrying, his breathing was uneven and still shaky.
7Please respect copyright.PENANA4N4J0St2EC
7Please respect copyright.PENANAL0YIqJeWQ9
7Please respect copyright.PENANARZBrIg04l8
A few minutes into the drive juice heard it.
7Please respect copyright.PENANA1fCS8kmLj4
7Please respect copyright.PENANAPw9RSDzEVD

Alasters shoulders were shaking.
7Please respect copyright.PENANAx5xbLclyaR
7Please respect copyright.PENANAwt93zdBwDo
7Please respect copyright.PENANA1iYfhC4XgA
Tears slipped down his cheeks freely, his lips pressed together tightly, trying not to make a sound. A broken sob escaped him. He lifted the jacket burying his face in it, like he was ashamed.
7Please respect copyright.PENANA27UqRNjBg4
7Please respect copyright.PENANAnmHYuXitTQ

Juice kept his attention on the road, his knuckles turning white from how hard he was gripping the steering wheel.
7Please respect copyright.PENANAM3YCSohohj

7Please respect copyright.PENANA2nwlWLhvHh
"You dont gotta hold it in" he said quietly. "You can cry. It's okay"
7Please respect copyright.PENANADcjM1eM2Qt
7Please respect copyright.PENANA0fM5NUxWzJ
7Please respect copyright.PENANAIgcQyCgCei
Alaster didn't answer but more broken sobs followed.
