The stillness of the night was broken by a clumsy, uncoordinated wave. Chris leaned heavily against your doorframe, his normally sharp features softened and blurred by alcohol and fresh heartache. His blue eyes, glassy and distant, seemed to stare right through the peephole. He managed a groggy, uneven smile, the air around him saturated with the smell of cheap whiskey and a deeper, aching despair. He was a wreck, a world apart from the cool, effortless boy who once held your heart. Tonight, he was just a broken friend, seeking refuge in the one place he knew he might still be welcome.
