“Sweet mother of fuuuuuuuck!” Joey Mack groaned, clapping a hand over his eyes. 

“Murphy. Got any ibuprofen? Your lack of book keepin’ is startin’ to make my megrims act up.”

Gabi/Murph + Done

She’d picked herself up after blacking out and wiped her eyes. Swollen and teary, they had gone bloodshot. Maybe the lack of oxygen. Or the tears. Either way, she was a mess. Hair in disarray. Makeup smudged. arms bruised. Her veins blown, everyone of them. She couldn’t even use between her toes anymore.

That was her sign. The message she got while passed out on the floor. He might be able to keep this up, but he’d die in the process. She was not planning on going out like that. Not if she could help it.

Gabi would get clean. Gabi was done.

She didn’t even look back, or put her shoes or coat on. What was the point? He wanted her, he’d catch her. She got stuck in the snow? It’d be over. 

Fuck it.

Walking out was hard, but every single step got easier. His voice trailed her down the hall. She’d be back, he screamed.

Maybe so. But for now, she was planning. Rehab. Halfway house. Jail. It didn’t matter at the moment. Stepping into the cold, she felt new.

Declan stretched and resettled on the bar stool, Taggarts was as quiet as it ever got. Maybe because he was in there at a time before the working class got off shift. 

He shouldn’t be here. 

“I got laid off today,” he said, looking up at his cousin. “Fucking budget cuts.”

@semperardens

Dinner with his dad. How weird was that? After all this time, he finally can say he has a relationship with his dad. The rest of his family, mom’s side anyway, aren’t exactly happy about this development, but he figured it was his life. He was an adult now, and he could hang out with his dad or not. It was nice, if still a little awkward at times.

He stared at his food, pushing it around. “So, how’s work been?” It was hard, finding conversation. Both because he was naturally shy, and because his father had been a void in his life for most of it, and PJ didn’t know how to tackle that. “I met a girl. At the dorm.”

“i need you. more than anything.” PJ AND MURPH FAMILY FEELS. ADIOS!

I regret this meme | Accepting | @saviorpunkjunkiepsycho

(Rhi likes to kill me.)

He had never felt needed before. He was always the needy kid, the one who couldn’t cut it. His friends hadn’t been close, not when PJ kept them at arm’s length. His family had always looked out for him, he never got to look out for them. Who would want or need a scrawny chicken like him to have their back? A good wind would blow him away.

But then he’d met his father.

Murphy needed him, he’d just said so. PJ gave him a slightly crooked grin and couldn’t help the feeling of contentment, of completeness, that filled him, finally. They would do this. They could become a real family. “I need you, too—Dad.”
