“ i guess being angry is just easier than being sad. ” / jess @ roy
@hopecut / drownedjewel - idk which meme!!
if he could raise a drink to her statement, he would. but alcohol wasn’t exactly easily available within the confines of rehab, nor should it be. his hand loosely scratched at the beard that had grown due to the lack of self-care he’d be practising, eyes that had grown tired from the withdrawals flickered over to jessica where they observed her face for but a mere second before he adverted them and spoke. “it is.” he gave a raise of his eyebrows in agreement, hands then busying themselves with the other, picking the quicks out of his nail beds. “doesn’t excuse you from being a dick to that counsellor though.” not that he could talk, wasn’t it only last week he’d lashed out at one, too?
“what’s going on?” his voice was raspy, not his own anymore. once, it had been as smooth as velvet, boosted with confidence that practically radiated out of every pore on his body. now? it was desperate and hopeless all at once, worn out and deteriorated... it perfectly mirrored the hollow shell of a man he’d turned into. “i thought you were feelin’ better?”
