Nate Jacobs

She takes him to the place where she works.

She chuckled softly. "I'm fine. I'll be fine."

She was trying so hard not to cry. She just hugs him back.

She looked at him. "That's what the nightmares are..."

"If I lost you... I don't know what I would have done..."

"Nate, you're the only family I have left..."

She hugs him back, burying her face in his neck.

She nodded and looked down from his gaze. "I'm sorry.."

"Not much." She was telling the truth. "One glass or two... before i go to bed.. helps me sleep.. I have nightmares..."

"Yes." She nodded.

"But if you were to ask me if I was drinking... I wouldn't lie to you..." She admitted.

She shakes her head.. "Fez won't let me."

She looks back at his eyes. "It helps.. numb your feelings... believe me.. I've been there.."

She nodded and looked at him. "Yea.. I do.."

She knew he knew what she was going to say next, and that's why he picked up his pace. "I get it, you know.."

"Okay, just wanted to make sure."
