He stared into the greenish liquid and then he inhaled it, relishing the heady scent. He sipped at it and the flavour of it enflamed his senses. "It's...incredible," he informed her.

He had been trying to keep sober while Joey was missing in case he was needed, but it was too hard now. He was giving in.
