Blake buried her face into the rose scented sheets inhaling deeply hoping that it would comfort her and give her the courage and strength that she'd need to make these major changes if she truly wanted to keep her relationship with her silver eyed love. Time passed as Blake relaxed into the sheets 'Too much time,' she thought to herself and sat up to look at the faint red glow of her clock that stood on her nightstand that told her that somehow nearly 2 hours had passed since Ruby left and that it was nearly midnight. Panic flooded Blake as she realized that if she doesn't act quickly Ruby may move on from her to find someone who will give her the undivided attention she deserved for being such caring and understanding partner. Thus she quickly changed into a simple outfit of a purple and black zip up hoodie with a simple cat t-shirt that Ruby had bought her when they first started dating and black sweatpants.
Satisfied and comfortable with how she was dressed Blake ran out of her apartment building to sprint a few blocks before riding the train the rest of the way to Ruby's apartment complex. Rushing up the stairs like a shadowy blur completely disregarding the other residents of the building she arrived at a familiar front door and slowly used her own key given to her to quietly open the door and slip inside. At first Blake saw nothing of concern but then the smell hit her, instead of the calming sweet scent of roses or sometimes a hint of cinnamon all she smelled was strong hard alcohol coming from the only bedroom in the apartment. Terror and dread took over Blake afraid that Ruby may have in fact moved on by going to some bar and meeting someone.
Heart pounding in her ears she slowly creaked open the door and released a deep breath of pure anxiety that she hadn't realized she was holding in. For in the small bedroom softly lit by a small lamp on the nightstand and on the queen sized bed lay her queen, Ruby. Though something was off, very off. As Blake got close she heard small quiet whimpers and hiccups from her rose and once she got close she saw 2 empty bottles of what she could only assume was whiskey and she read the label and her heart sank to her very core. The bottle was a whiskey that is one of the highest in alcohol content and obviously if abused would stir great issues for the consumer. A small sob broke the raven haired girl from her focus and she quickly snapped her attention to Ruby who was clutching tightly to a pillow so hard her knuckles paled and she sobbed into it in her sleep, "B-Blake...please I need you,,I-I'm sorry if I'm not good enough.." The last sentence threw Blake into overdrive and very quickly and carefully she got into the bed with the smaller girl and pulled her close and held Ruby's face close to her chest hoping the melody of her pounding heart for her would lull Ruby to sleep more peacefully.
Heat rose to Blake's face as she realized the situation and how she was holding her love so close to her body. The reason for this is because of Blake being so busy for what seemed like every waking second of the day the pair hadn't really progressed in anytype of intimacy passed quick chaste kisses and holding hands occasionally. Yet here they were Ruby asleep drunk held tightly against Blake's chest while Blake shakily tried to gently pet Ruby's soft black and red hair to keep her asleep out of fear of the smaller girl's possible reaction. Ruby however in her sleep found the situation quite pleasant and comfortable stretching her legs a bit to a better position and slowly wrapping her arms around Blake and holding her nearly equally as tight. A happy giddy smile was the only main expression on Blake's face but in her golden eyes that were locked on the figure that she held her eyes held all the love in the world just waiting to be given to Ruby as soon as she woke but for now she was happy as they simply held each other on this soft relaxing bed and as Blake leaned down to kiss the top of Ruby's head that sweet rosey scent filled her head and she grinned and slowly kissed the top of her head which made Ruby quietly sigh with contempt and snuggle closer. Content with their current position Blake slowly leaned over her sleeping girlfriend to turn off the lamp before slowly settling back into holding Ruby while slowly leaning down and quietly whispering in the young girl's ear, "I promise I'll always be here for you from now on my rose." With that she shut her eyes and relaxed slowly falling into a deep comfortable sleep along with Ruby while said girl had a slight smile as if she had heard it in her own dream.
