Stay Around You Now And Forever

Terry was not a big drinker, so he was not a good drinker.

After drinking two bottles of red wine, his steps were already zigzagging when he was on the way home.

"What's the matter? How did you get him so drunk?" Emily hadn't seen Terry drunk since she had been here two years.

"I don't know. Maybe he is happy to see me, so he drank more."

Joe smiled a little awkwardly. He had never been good at lying.

"Well, anyway, I don't know why he is so excited to see me, I... I'm a little tired, Emily. I'll sleep in Terry's room, and you take care of Terry."

"Yes, I'll help you get him in."

Terry wasn't exactly drunk, just a little unsteady on his feet, but at least he was conscious.

He was not used to be supported by Joe like this treated Emily like this.

But Joe's words lingered in his mind.

It had been two years. If he didn’t take the initiative, was he going to make a woman take the initiative?

It was said that time could dilute everything. Maybe Emily was not as infatuated with Hunter as before?

Maybe he did have a chance?

Wine boosted his courage.

Thrown on Emily's bed by Joe, he rolled over and saw Emily standing beside the bed. He was so scared that he closed his eyes, lest she should know he was still awake.

Emily didn't look at him at all. She stared at Joe as he was leaving. "Don't go. Stay here to take care of Terry."

Terry was so drunk that Joe moved him in here. But he had to spend the night with the kids.

Joe suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to be doing enough.

If he were sober, the responsibility of taking care of Terry would fall on him.

"Oh... Okay, I'll take care of... I'll take care of him." Joe narrowed his eyes, as if he wanted to walk back.

But somehow, he hit the chair so hard that he almost rolled on the floor.
