Dinah slowly opened the bathroom door, relieved to find that Jonathan was still asleep on the bed. She watched him for a few moments, before pulling a photograph out of her purse. She had planned to use it as insurance against Jeffrey, but she had a feeling that this would work a lot better. Besides, she still had the negatives… She wrote a short message on the back of the photo and placed it, face down, on the nightstand. Then she got dressed, and headed out the door.

"See… I told you that the sex was better out here…" Jonathan said, pulling away from Sandy as he pulled his pants back up. "There's nothing quite like taking you up against these rocks…"

Sandy was still panting slightly. He pulled his pants back up and turned around to face Jonathan, before pulling him into a kiss.

Jonathan returned the kiss momentarily before pulling away.

Sandy hesitated a moment. He wanted to say it, but he wasn't quite sure if he should. "Jonathan I…"

"Yeah…" Jonathan said, raising an eyebrow.

"Nothing…" Sandy said. "Never mind…"

"Something you wanna tell me, baby?" Jonathan asked.

"Jonathan… I… I love you…" Sandy finally managed.

Jonathan smirked. "And I love fucking you…" he said, before fishing into his jacket pocket. "I got a surprise for you…"

Sandy tried not to let the disappointment show on his face. That hadn't been the answer he was hoping for. Not by a long shot.

"Hey… Don't look sad…" Jonathan said. "This stuff'll cheer you right up…" He placed the tablet under his tongue and smiled. "Here baby… Try some…" he said, holding his hand out to Sandy.

"You know I don't do that stuff…" Sandy said, turning away from him.

"Fine…" Jonathan muttered. "Be that way, bitch…"

Sandy quickly spun back around to face him. "What did you just call me?" he snapped.

Jonathan chuckled slightly. "You heard me…" he said. "What's wrong? I thought you liked that pet name…"

Sandy glared at Jonathan angrily. "I never said that…"

"Sure you did…" Jonathan said. "You just probably don't remember… Because you were so high on pot that night, Mr. You Know I Don't Do That Stuff…"

Sandy rolled his eyes. "Pot doesn't count…" he said.

"Sure, Sandy…" Jonathan replied. "You just keep telling yourself that…" He moved closer to the edge of the cliff and stood out by it.

"Jonathan… What… What are you doing?" Sandy asked.

"What does it look like I'm doing, bitch?" Jonathan replied.

"Jonathan, you're going to fall…" Sandy said. "Please… Get back over here…"

"Would you quit whinin'?" Jonathan snapped.

"You're going to fall off of the cliff Jonathan…" Sandy said. He hated it when he got like this. So high that he didn't even think.

"Get over here…" Jonathan said.

"NO!" Sandy said.

Jonathan smirked. "Why? What, are you scared?" he asked.

Sandy glared at him. "That's what you think, right? That I'm afraid. That I'm weak. Go ahead, say it."

Jonathan stepped even closer to the edge, his voice suddenly taking on a mocking tone. "Oh! I'm so scared!" He said, chuckling slightly. "It's so far down!"

Sandy had just about had enough. "You know, I'm sick of this." He snapped, completely fed up with the way that Jonathan was acting. "And I try. I have tried so hard with you, but..."
Jonathan's foot slipped, and he tried to steady himself. "Whoa, Sandy." He said, completely losing his footing. "Sandy, help…"

"JONATHAN!!!" Sandy screamed out as his eyes snapped open. Shit. When had he fallen asleep? He couldn't remember. When had he left the bar? He couldn't even remember that. His head ached. How much had he had to drink? Too much. He made his way over to the medicine cabinet and popped some aspirin into his mouth, washing them down with the water from the faucet before splashing some onto his face. He looked at himself in the mirror, just thinking. He'd thought he'd gotten over Jonathan's death a long time ago. When had he become such a wreck again? Oh, right…
