I heard my phone start to ring and it woke me up. I felt so weak and exhausted. I reached down and picked it up off the floor. "Blair! Where the hell are you?" I heard. I let out a big yawn and looked at the clock. It was 10:00 PM. I took a second look at the clock. I couldn't beleive I had been sleeping so long. "I'm at Rob's." I mumbled. "Where is that?" "Who is this?" I asked. "Brody." He answered. "How could you not know who this is?" I shrugged, then realized he couldn't see me. I giggled. "I don't know." I said, yawning again. "Put Rob on the phone." He said. I rolled over and shook him a little. He opened his eyes and looked at me. I handed him the phone. "Hello?" He said. I layed back down. He got up and walked out of the room. I heard him giving Brody directions. I felt myself starting to doze off again. I just wanted to sleep. "Blair, Brody is on his way to pick you up." I heard Rob say. "No." He laughed. "Yes." He grabbed me and sat me up. "Drink some water." He said handing me a water bottle. I sighed and took a few big sips. "Promise me that you won't call me tomorrow." He said. "What?" He just nodded. "Why?" I asked. "I don't want you to get hurt." He said. "Please just take a day off." "I don't want to." I said. I stood up and got dressed. "I want you to." He said. "No." "Yes. If you call me, I won't answer. If you stop by here, I won't answer." He said. "And I'm not changing my mind." He got up and left the room again. "That's stupid. I don't need a day off." I said. "Yes you do." "No. I don't." I argued. I walked out to the front room where he was rolling a joint. I rolled my eyes. I picked up my purse and stormed out of the apartment. He didn't even follow me, which really pissed me off. I sat down on the sidewalk while I waited for Brody. He pulled up a few minutes later. I stood up and got a bad head rush. Brody got out of his car and ran over to me. "Are you okay?" He asked. "Just a head rush." I said rudely. I got in the car. He leaned down staring me in the eyes. "What?" I asked annoyed. "Chris has been so worried." He said. "Why are you treating him like shit? I had to drive over there and help him with his wounds." He slammed the door and got in the driver side. "He's got Sarah." I said. "What is wrong with you? Sarah has a baby." He said. "She doesn't have time to just drop everything and help him whenever she wants." I just shrugged my shoulders. "Blair, this is not you." He said. "If you keep this up, I'm calling your Dad." "Oh god." I said laughing. "He'd be so disapointed in you if he knew what you were doing." He said. "And you have no right to tell him anything." I said. "Yes I do. If that is what it takes for you to get your life back on track, then he has a right to know." He said. "You're talking like I am a drug addict." I said. "You're an idiot if you don't see that that is the road you are going down as we speak." He said. "Shut up." I said. "No." "Yes. I don't want to talk to you." I said. "I had no life before." I blurted out as we pulled up at my apartments. I opened the door. He grabbed my arm and pulled me back down into the seat as I tried to step out. I looked at him. "You had an amazing life before." He said. "Yeah." I said letting out a chuckle. "Will you stay with me tonight?" He asked. "So I can hear all this shit all night? I don't think so." I said. I got out of the car and started walking to my apartment. I heard Brody call my name a few times, but I ignored him.
