Chapter 11: Hopes Shattered-Part 1
Bruce paced back and forth as he waited for the sound of her car. When he finally heard it he threw open the door and rushed out to greet her. She fell into his arms as he led her inside. They sat on the couch in silence as Amy sobbed into Bruce's chest. His arms wrapped protectively around her, he ran his hands up and down her back.
When she finally looked up at him, he found himself dreading what she was about to say. "Bruce.... I.... about earlier...." she couldn't bring herself to say it; "do you have some wine?" Bruce obligingly stood up and got a bottle of wine and two glasses.
"Who said we needed glasses?" Amy opened the bottle and poured wine directly into her mouth. Bruce felt a shiver down his spine as she played with the bottleneck.
"Should you be drinking Judge Gray?" He asked concerned
"It's Amy and no!" He reached for the bottle, but she swung it away from him and downed it. He stared at her in shock.
"Judge.... Amy, what are you doing?"
"Getting drunk with a friend!" He took the empty bottle from her and went to fetch another for himself. He sat back down and poured out a glass, he put the bottle down, but regretted it as Amy reached for it instantly and downed that as well.
All Amy felt was numb, and that's how she wanted to be, but she still wanted to be comforted, held close and cared for.
"Brusch.... I...." Amy leant over to him and ran a finger down his chest; he took her hand in his. "Brusch.... I don't want to...." She moved closer to him and planted a kiss on his lips, he willingly accepted and reciprocated, but after a few minutes he felt her become limp in his arms. He moved her away and saw that she had passed out. He picked her up and walked up to his room, smiling; the one he loved had kissed him.... again.
