"Well done Jared, well done!" Colin shouted furiously, flailing. "What?", Jared asked and he frowned. He was little confused of Colin yelling at him out of nowhere. "what, what?" Colin mocked him, making faces like rebellious twelve years old girl. "You fucking know what", he added even more angrily now.

"Hey can you just tell me what is wrong without instantly yelling at me, I, for real don't know what are you trying to tell me. You know, that attitude of yours pisses me" Jared said, trying his best to keep calm. He was the calm one in the relationship. "Oh really, I piss you off?", Colin rolled his eyes and walked towards kitchen table where was a little pile of bills to be paid.

He picked one that was already opened "there's huge bill again", he shook it in front of Jared’s face "...new fucking clothes. What are you doing with all of them?". "Well, usually people wear them", Jared responded in tone of sarcasm. "Colin, dear, I hope you're not high again, aren't you?", Jared added sweet-talk just in case because he knew Colin wasn't pleased when he put his nose on Colin’s businesses, even thought it was for his own good that at least Jared took care of him. But this was a relationship."Not your business. And what if I was, would you care?" Colin replied shrugging. Jared exhaled. "I would. Aren't we supposed to be in relationship?". It was more like rhetorical question.

 “Hey, I’m talking to you!” Jared snapped, when Colin didn’t seem to listen at all and just took off and went to living room. Jared dropped his jaw, looked confused by Colin ignoring him and followed his boyfriend to their living room. The Living room had been messy for two weeks again. But not just living room. Kitchen, both bathrooms and hall. Colin sat on couch and sniffed cocaine from glassy couch table.

“Oh my god! Really??” Jared said as he saw Colin sniffing another line of cocaine. He glanced to Jared under his dark thick eyebrows carelessly. He didn’t care. Colin behaved very egoistically on the days he was high. Which has been all the time lately. He had been on rehab plenty of times, once he went there because Jared asked him to. It was no problem then. On another time, he was caught by cops from a party. They knew about Colin’s rehab and they took him there against his will.

”What?” he asked, but actually not wanting to get an answer. He leaned back on couch and opened a beer can. “Oh, nothing.. just.. you know.. continue, whatever you were doing. Don’t let me interrupt.” Jared replied sarcastically again to his boyfriend. He was about to go away from living room and took few steps towards the door that leaned to hall, but then he stopped next to Colin. “I’m so fed up with you!” He opened. “You never keep your promise to get better on rehab”.  Jared glanced down on Colin. Colin looked up to see his face. There was a tear in Jared’s eye about to fall and he turned his head away. He made it just enough in time that Colin didn’t see him starting to cry. He took off.

“Where are you going now, princess?” Colin mocked him again.

Jared came back on the doorway. He had put his shoes and black leather jacket on with dark grey scarf. “I’m off from here. I’m going to Shannon’s over the night. I’m sick of you.” “Well get off then already, don’t let me keep from going..” Colin said while taking sip on beer.

On his way to his big brother’s apartment, Jared wasn’t able to keep it all in anymore. It was dark summer night. Jared managed to stop tears at times when there was people passing by from opposite way. He walked fast, he just wanted to escape.

He finally came to the apartment where Shannon lived. It was nice fancy building and there was doorman. He knew Jared well, and just nodded to him when he walked by reception. A little fancier place than Jared’s and Colin’s apartment at few blocks away from where he was now.

Jared went to elevator and it opened it’s doors instantly with a nice little chink sound. He entered in and pushed the button that took him to seventh floor. The elevator took it’s passenger straight to one’s apartment like, the elevator door was your kind of front door. But not just anyone could enter your home, because of the doorman in the building’s lobby.

Elevator’s doors opened and he entered to Shannon’s apartment. It was huge. And most of all, it was clean. And no one used drugs. The life here was the one Jared was used to have before he met Colin.

“Hey little brother!”  Shannon greeted him with hug. Jared responded to hug with simple and short “Hi”. And he had just cried and he tried to avoid talking too much. And also he wasn’t in chatty mood after shitty evening at home.
“How’s things at home?” Shannon asked directly because he knew. “I think he’s on drugs again.” He replied as he let go of their hug. “Is it that bad ?” “Well, according to me, I would say he needs to get back to rehab. I can’t stand it anymore, Shannon!” Jared tried to hold back tears that were so close to come out in any minute. He was so done with this shit in his life. Suddenly his phone started ringing. It said the number was unknown to him. Knowingly Jared didn’t answer those calls and as usually, even now, he just clicked the red button to turn down the call. “What if it was him?” Shannon said while leading Jared to kitchen to make something to eat before bedtime. “He would only continue where he left at home; mocking and yelling how ‘incredibly dumb bitch I am’.” Jared shook his head in doubt.

Jared and Shannon chatted a while during diner in kitchen and then they both went to sleep. Shannon into his own bed and Jared went to another bedroom. Shannon had actually kept it for Jared so he could come over whenever he wanted. He took care of his little brother. Shannon had also said few times before to Jared that he should just leave Colin. He wasn’t good for him.

Jared lied down in bed and stared at ceiling for a while. Finally he fell asleep.

Next morning, Jared woke up to delicious smell of fresh coffee. He inhaled the smell deeply. It was heavenly good, he couldn’t resist it and got up from bed. He got into kitchen and sat down on one of the four tall bar chairs Shannon had around table. Sometimes Jared thought why the hell his brother had so huge house on his own. It looked more like there lived at least 3 other people too. But Shannon lived there alone. “Morning.” “Morning..” They said to each other and Shannon poured coffee for his brother. Jared yawned and took a look around. “You have painted here.” He noticed that the walls in this large kitchen were painted stone grey. “Yup. It was too light shade for my taste.” Shannon replied laughing a little under his breath while sipping coffee.

Jared gulped the last mouthful amount of his coffee and stretched his arms and muscles. He couldn’t help for making little inhuman noises. Shannon smiled at him. “Did you know, you sound like baby dinosaur when you do that”. They laughed together for minute.

“Well, I should probably go back and take Colin to rehab.” Jared started. Shannon nodded and they stood up. Jared put his clothes on and he said farewells to Shannon and went to elevator.

Jared walked in morning sunrise. He was couple of block away from home. He wasn’t sure were Colin at home last night or did he went somewhere to party and do drugs. Anyway, Jared’s plan was to go talk to him. It was all unsteady but at least he planned to try to talk to Colin back to rehab.

He put his home key to front door’s lock and turned it open. He was aware that Colin was asleep, even though it was 10am. The atmosphere felt quite calm. Almost dead calm. Jared undressed his jacket and hanged it on rack. He took off his shoes and entered to kitchen. There was still the same mess around as yesterday. Jared heard sound from living room. Knowing Colin, he assumed he had left TV open over night.

He marched to living room nagging “Colin, I have said to you billions of times that you fucking must--”, he was cut short by a shocking view. The rare blush on his face ran off and he went pale. He could only stand there in front of what he saw right now.

After a minute of staring in shock, he took an aware step forward. “Colin?” it was barely audible sound that came out of his mouth. “Colin…?” he repeated. Colin lied on couch in sitting position, mouth open, pale as ghost, dead eyes glanced to ceiling seeing nothing. Jared whispered so quietly, it was actually only readable on his lips.

“Oh my god”.
