The door swings open, Vinyl stumbles in, she is completely drunk. Vinyl walks through the dark house until bumps into something in the dark.

“Uha, what did I hit.” Vinyl said.

“It’s not what you hit, it’s who you hit,” Octavia said.

“Oh Octy. what are you doing up,” Vinyl asked.

“I think the better question is why were you out so late. You didn’t even work so what were you doing.” Octavia said.

“Well you see I got invited to go have a few drinks this person I met at one of my gigs.” Vinyl said.

“Well, you could have told me that you were going to be out so late,” Octavia said 

“I know I’m sorry, next time I will be sure to tell you, and I will try to not stay out so late.” Vinyl said.

“You promises,” Octavia asked.

“Promise” Vinyl said.

Twelve weeks later
“VINYL, get up now!” Octavia said yanking the cover of the couch.

“HAY! Why did you do that.” Vinyl shouted.

“Do you remember 12 weeks ago what you said to me,” Octavia asked.

“Octy I don’t even remember what I had for lunch yesterday.” Vinyl said.

“You promised me that you would try not to stay out so late and if you were you would tell me, and you didn’t,” Octavia said.

“Hay it’s the first time in two weeks so what’s the big deal.” Vinyl said.

“It’s not Vinyl, this is the 15th time this has happened,” Octavia said.

“Ok, but why is it a big deal that I am staying out so late,” Vinyl asked.

“It’s not that, it’s the fact that you have constantly broken the promise you made to me, and every time you do this you 
always come home drunk and can barely remember anything,” Octavia said.

“Hay I have been doing this long before I met you. How can you just ask me to change my way of life like that.” Vinyl said.

“Well, what about me Vinyl. I throw away my old life to run away with you. Have you ever stopped and think about 
everything I lost!” Octavia shouted.

“You wanted to run away with me, you should be happy I had somewhere for us to go and hide from your parents. I should 
not have to ruin my life because you throw away your old one.” Vinyl said.

“You just don’t understand Vinyl,” Octavia said then stormed out of the house.
Vinyl looked at the door in shock, then tears began to fall down her face.

“What just happened.” Vinyl said.
