After giving myself a few pep talks outside of Flynn and Wes' apartment, I knocked on their door. Flynn opened it excitedly and directed me to Wes' room before he left. I'd rather he not leave, but I didn't really have a choice.
What are you going to say, Vienna? I asked myself as I walked down the hall to his bedroom.
I stopped and stood outside Wes' room. I wanted to open the door but Aidan and Flynn were making such a big deal of this, I was afraid to and all I really wanted to do was walk away and get back to my own life. But I hated the thought of Wes being alone and in pain.
I knocked on the door lightly and waited before I knocked a little harder but there was still no answer. So I turned the knob and found it was unlocked. I stepped into the room hesitantly, only to find Wes in bed. At the sight of him surrounded by beer bottles and a bottle of liquor on the floor, I stepped into the room fully to get a better look at his state. His room was dim, the thick curtains blocking out most of the light.
"Wes?" I asked timidly.
He didn't stir. I could see his head tucked into his arm and pillows, a comforter covering half his bare back.
"Wes."
"Fuck off, Flynn."
"Wes, are you drunk?" I groaned. I didn't want to deal with drunk or hungover Wes.
"I haven't had anything since yesterday."
I chuckled and I raised my voice, "Wes, look at me."
His head turned to the side, cheek smashed against his arm as he squinted at me. A look of shock, then anger took over his face. "Who let you in?" He grumbled. I frowned ashamedly.
You shouldn't be here and he clearly doesn't want you here.
I left him and walked to the kitchen to get a glass of water. I saw his lips were chapped more than usual when he lifted his head, so when I came back, I set the glass on his nightstand. "I think the real question is why the hell are you moping around like this?" I retorted when I walked back in.
"Fuck you, Valley."
I sighed, walking over to the bed and I sat lightly on the edge by his legs. "Wes, they're worried about you."
He shifted, groaning. "What the hell do you want?"
"I'm not quite sure actually. They think I can help."
