Days, I Haven't Seen Days
WHO: Kara Thrace and OPEN
WHERE: Kara's room
WHAT: Dealing with a hangover instead of her problems.
Kara groaned, being forced out of her alcohol-induced coma by something jabbing her in the ribs. She blindly felt under the covers for the object and her hand emerged with an empty liquor bottle. She let her hand drop over the side of the bed, releasing the bottle onto the floor. Her eyes opened, barely slits, to glare at the lone lamp that was shining on top of a dresser across from her bed.
She wanted to shoot it.
When had she even turned it on? It took her a few minutes, but she started to remember everything. The fight with Helo and Lee. Someone helping her find her room (she could barely remember a face, let alone a name). Turning on the lamp and sitting on the bed, waiting for her requested alcohol to arrive.
And then she just started to drink. More and more---anything to get the 'Sharon is a Cylon' mantra out of her head. And then, her world became one of passing out, barely making it to the bathroom, more drinking and drunk nightmares. Nightmares about her mother, hiding from her in a closet so that she wouldn't get smacked around. Nightmares about Zak, his ghost blaming her for his death, as he should...
Kara groaned again as she felt her stomach lurch. She moaned as she tried to sit up, the room spinning. Swinging her feet over the bed, she wobbly walked to the bathroom, making a nosedive for the toilet as she began to vomit.
