All I Needed Was You(IC) (Closed)

"So I'll see you next week, same time as today. And if anything happens, then you--"

"Yeah, I know... call you immediately."

"Alright, Charlie. Keep at it, you're doing great at this, You're improving a lot from when I first started seeing you."

"Thanks doc. I'll see you next week."

Charlie sighed as he closed the door to his psychologist's office. He had been seeing her for the past month and a half after trying to go sober for the fourth time. The last time he had gone into rehab, it went well until they finally let him out, thinking he was going to be okay. But of course, he wasn't.

After getting a call from the hospital he had left his father at just before going into the rehabilitation center, he had found out that his father was in terrible shape. And then things only seemed to get worse. Not only was his father in bad shape, but because of all the drinking he had done in the past twelve years, most of his vital organs were failing. Of course, the doctors had told Charlie they were going to do everything they could, but Charlie knew better. Even if his dad got a liver replacement he'd waste the new one away with alcohol, of course. He'd never stop. Three weeks later, he got the terrible, but obvious news... his father had died.

So once again for the next few months, Charlie spiraled back out of control, back to drinking excessively. And of course, just like the last time, his friends, the few he had left, staged an intervention for him. begging him to get and stay sober. It took some time, but Charlie finally obliged. But rather than going to rehab once more, he decided to just instead go see a therapist and talk out his problems, and keep up with once of his sober friends for support. So far, it was working. He felt like he finally had control over his addiction, more control than he ever had before. All because he decided to talk out his problems, and find out the real cause of his addiction.

After walking out of the building, Charlie headed down the street to the local coffee shop to grab a quick cup of coffee, then go home, get some rest before going back to work tomorrow.
