I slam my pointer and middle fingers into Ward’s mouth and down into his throat as hard as I can.

He lets out a disgusting gagging sound and I quickly pull my fingers back.

I move out of the way just in time as a line of vomit shoots across the room.

Ward falls to his hands and gags, coughs, and pukes some more.

I stand there, pissed off, and I slowly look at Mila.

“Jax…” she whispers.

I get it.

I might have just saved Ward’s life.

“Oh, fuck,” Ward groans. “More…”

He jams his own fingers into his mouth and keeps throwing up.

I step closer to Mila and she grabs my arm.

“Jax, thank you,” she whispers.

I nod.

I guess we all do crazy shit when it comes to love, huh?

Wait… what the fuck did I just think?

JAX

I’m doing this for Mila. Not for Ward.

Say what you want about me, but if this guy wants to drink himself to death, then go for it.

I am not cleaning anything up either.

Mila left the bedroom a minute ago.

I’m collecting myself.

Ward slowly lowers himself to the floor, placing his cheek down into the mess of his own vomit.

I crouch down again.

“Listen to me,” I say to him. “Don’t move. Close your fucking eyes and you better hope they open again in the morning. You dumb fool.”

I walk out of the bedroom to find Mila getting together some paper towels.

“There are no cleaning supplies here,” she says. “He lives like a pig.”

“He can sleep like one too,” I say. “He fell into his own puke. Let him stay like that.”

“Jax…”

I grab the paper towels from her hand. “Mila. This isn’t your job. It was never your job. You won’t like what I have to say about this next, but he needs to feel what rock bottom is. Maybe this is it. What exactly did he text you…?”
