She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger. And finally drank away his memory. Life is short but this time it was bigger.Than the strength she had to get up off her knees.We found her with her face down in the pillow.Clinging to his picture for dear life.We laid her next to him beneath the willow.While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby.

It was about 11:30 and Alex was sitting in a bar she was on her second bottle of Jack Daniels. She had been there since about 8:00 she was slurring her word and she could hardly stand.
"Give me another bottle" she slurred
"I think you have had enough" the bartender said
"Well I don't what is up with everyone trying to control my life first Randy now you well you know what the hell with the both of you" she said as she tried to stand up but she fell and passed out.
"Jesus why do I always get stuck with the drunks?" he bartender muttered to himself as he reached his hand into Alex's coat pocket trying to find some sort of ID. He found her cell phone and her wallet. He found a piece of paper with a number and the name Randy written on it he figured it was worth a shot. He dialed the number and waited for someone to pick up.
"Hello" Randy said
"Yes hello this is Jeff Dawson I'm a bartender at the Claddah pub here in Boston we seem to have a friend of yours passed out here" the bartender said
"Ok how long has John been passed out?" Randy asked
"It isn't John her name is Alex Hart and if you could come get her it would be very much appreciated" Jeff said
"Ok I'll be there in a few minutes where are you located?" Randy asked
The bartender gave him the directions. Then he hung up.
Randy's Pov
I can't believe her she tells me she hates me and the next thing I know I have to pick her up because she is passed out in a bar. She is lucky I stayed around to keep an eye on her. I really care about her and I don't want to see her hurt herself which is what she is doing. This isn't anyway for her to honor Dave's memory. I grabbed my keys and headed out to my car. I was outside the bar 20 minutes later.
"Hi I'm here to pick up Alex" I said
"She is over here she said something about people trying to control her life and then she passed out" Jeff said
"Ok thanks" I replied as I picked her up and carried her out to my car. I laid her out in the backseat and got into the driver's seat.
"Alex why are you doing this to yourself don't you see that people still care about you?" I asked her sleeping form.
I looked at her curled up in the backseat. 'This is going to be fun' I thought to myself before driving off.
