"No, this is my crappy way of making sure that if you pass out you don't topple down the stairs."

"Huh, I guess that is pretty smart?"

"How much did you really drink?"

"Had like three drinks."

"Three drinks of what?"

"First one was a glass of whisky, then I had a glass of red wine then took a shot of vodka."

"I thought I had told you to stop drinking and mixing different alcohols?" I looked at him sternly, he simply looked back with a blank face, eyes half lidded.

"I find it so boring to stick to one though, I like variety."

"Well I'm sorry your majesty that I don't like when you mix and then proceed to get drunk and end with me carrying you up to your room."

"Do keep apologising darling, who said you could stop?" I smirked slightly, I merely rolled my eyes in response.

We finally reached the top of the stairs, I removed his arm from my shoulder and stretched my limbs and wings. My head trunks to look at him.

"Can you walk yourself to your room or do you need me to drag you there too?"

"Mmmmm." He hums using all his brain power to make a simple decision "I can walk but can you walk with me incase I do pass out?"

"Fine."

We take off to his room, no dialogue is being exchanged instead a silence falls over us. Although I have this strange gut feeling that he was about to ask me something that I would rather not answer right now.

"Are you still mad at me from this morning?" He asks a hint of sadness in his tone, his eyes locked on the floor below him.

"First of all look up or else you might crash into something, secondly I honestly don't know. I didn't get a good night's rest but I shouldn't push my anger onto you, that doesn't mean you didn't tick me off either."

He briefly looks at me before reverting his gaze back to the ground.

"But you should also know how much I hate being angry, so I'll forgive you and say no I'm not angry." He remains quiet before opening his mouth and uttering one simple word...

"Thanks." It wasn't slurred and was a genuine 'thank you' which caught me slightly off guard, because he wasn't one to typically thank people when showing him forgiveness.

Then I remember that this man is drunk, but they do say drunk words are sober thoughts so in the end I have no actual clue to if this is genuine or if it just sounds like it.

After a few more steps we finally arrived at his door.

"There we've arrived, so now I shall bid you goodnight!" I gave a mock salute, turned around and started walking back to the main area. When I suddenly felt a hand wrap around my wrist and tug me back. "What now?"

"I meant it."

"Uh, what?"

"I meant it when I said 'Thanks'."

"I can't tell if you're saying that with a sober or drunk mind."

"Sober, definitely sober." A few seconds of silence silenced his purple eyes, looking at my lime green ones.

"You're welcome." With that he lets go of my wrist and I leave for the main area, not looking back but debating if I should. In the end I chose to look forward, not a common thing for me. Maybe I caught his drunkenness and now my thoughts are straying away from being sober.

☆Miracle's: POV☆

I'm munching happily on my sandwich, the best food I've had in a while, bread's so fluffy too! I can hear Jaza chatting away to some patrons in the background, I can see Rainbow approaching from the distance, probably back to collect and give orders. I take another bite of my sandwich wondering how they do this everyday, wonder if they ever get bored? Wait nevermind forget they have their 'special days' where the walls probably become more red then they already are.

A nervous pit starts to grow in my stomach as I'm silently wondering when I'm going to experience my first 'mission'. Assasination is the better term to be honest but, each to their own I suppose.

I take my final bite of my sandwich, munching and then swallowing. I let out a satisfied sigh, and leaned over the counter lost in my contempt. I close my eyes and let myself enjoy this small moment of peace, nothing crazy, no one bothering me.

When I felt someone poking at my cheek "You ok, or are you dying?" I spoke too soon, what crazy thing is gonna come out of this.

I open one eye to see Jaza holding an empty glass, small droplets coating its surface and a half damp rag hanging out of it, their other hand close but not touching my face.

"Nope, not dead yet."

"Good, I didn't want to deal with a body tonight, even if that was the case I would just have Rainbow take the body away." They place a tray on the counter, drinks and small bowls filled with snacks sit on it, Rainbow comes in at that exact moment and swoops it away but quickly tacks on "No I wouldn't, your bar your body."

"What does that have to do with anything-" I ask brows furrowed in confusion.

"No no, they've got a point." Jaza dismisses me.

"Whatever." I huff and try to enjoy my peacefulness. "Haven't seen Chubby much this evening." I say half groggily.

"Someone's tired, didn't you technically take an 8 hour nap?"

"Yeah, I could sleep more though."

"Then go sleep."

"Should I?"

"Yes."

"But what if I'm needed."

"You're not."

"Ouch, that was kinda rude."

"You know what I mean."

"Do I?"

"Yes now go.to.bed."

"Sheesh, fine mum I'm going"

"God's children are such brats."

"I heard that plus I'm almost an adult."

"Then maybe start acting like one, has that thought ever crossed your mind."

I stuck my tongue out in defeat, I would have shown them my lovely birds, but there were too many people around so I refrained myself.

I dash up the stairs, I always feel like someone will grab my legs and pull me back down if I'm not fast enough. I think that's just me being paranoid. I walk down the hall and finally make it to my room.

I quickly get changed throwing my work clothes on the ground not bothering to fold them and proceed to just crash into my bed.

I nuzzle my face into my pillow and lay there for a few seconds before actually crawling into the bed. I pull the soft covers over my body and immediately feel enveloped by warmth and satisfaction.

My eyes slowly closing, preparing my body to drift into a sleeping state. As I waited for the slumber to hit me, I thought if I was going to be lucky and have a dreamless night or have another weird dream. With that my world shuts down as I await the new day.
