One glass of wine down, and she still had troubles falling asleep. It was ridiculous, really, how stupidly vulnerable she felt at night without Athlis - the only ever time she felt vulnerable. It was weak, and childish, but it was what it was, and she couldn't do much about it, except drink and hope the alcohol would put her to sleep sooner or later.
Today, it seemed like it was going to be later.
Just great. It was past midnight already, perhaps even past one a.m., she didn't know and she didn't bother looking at the clock because she didn't really want to know. She had settled in bed already, hoping that her glass of wine would help, but it was no use - she kept tossing and turning, wide awake. Infuriating. She let out a resolved sigh, getting up from the king sized bed she shared with Athlis, heading towards the cabinet to pour herself another glass of wine. And there went the second glass, the third, the fourth... She lost count around the fourth, but really, it couldn't have been much more than seven glasses at the most.
Finally, she made her way back to the bed, although stumbling, feeling dizzy, the world blurry. She smiled, pleased. Just what she was trying to accomplish. Her head hit the pillows with a soft thud, her eyes closing and finally, she succumbed to sleep.
