When chaos was our hobby

"Let go of me! What the?!" Eros shouted, completely drunk.

He'd already had a lot, but he kept drinking.

"Take it easy, man. You want to get an autograph from St. Peter?" Ivo, one of Eros's friends, said.

"What's his problem? Why did he suddenly want to drink? He doesn't even drink, does he?" Yuki another friend, asked, grabbing the glass of alcohol from Eros.

"I don't know. He just called me out of the blue and said he wanted to drink. When I got to the bar, he was already like this," Ivo replied, taking a swig of his beer.

"I wonder what's wrong. Hey, Eros, what's up? Did you and Ivy have a fight?" Yuki asked.

Eros just looked at him, clutching his glass of alcohol. He drank it down and then started crying again.

"Ivy!!" he yelled, drawing everyone's attention.

"Ugh!! What's with the sudden shouting? You almost burst my eardrums! Ow!" Yuki complained.

"Ivy, Ivy," Eros repeated.

"I think Eros is losing it. Hey, it's almost dawn. When is that idiot getting here?" Ivo grumbled, looking at his watch.

"Oh, there he is," Yuki said, pointing to Bryn approaching.

Bryn walked over, smiling and twirling his car keys on his finger.

Yuki mmediately punched him in the arm.

"Where were you? You took forever! Come on, come on! Help us carry Eros before he makes a scene here."

Together, they carried Eros to Bryn's car. They put him in the back seat between Yuki and Ivo, while Bryn started driving.

"What happened? Why is he so drunk? He doesn't even drink, does he?" Bryn asked as he drove.

"We don't know. He just keeps saying 'Ivy, Ivy, Ivy.' It's driving me crazy," Yuki complained.

"Hey, Eros, what did you and Ivy fight about? What's going on?" Ivo asked again, leaning against the car window.

Eros didn't answer. He just stared silently out the window.

"Maybe they broke up," Bryn chimed in.

Eros suddenly started sobbing and then burst into tears again, continuing to call out Ivy's name. Yuki and Ivo didn't know what to do.

"There, there, Eros, don't cry," Yuki comforted him.

"Yeah, it's okay. This is all your fault," Ivo blamed Bryn, kicking his seat.

"H-hey! Why me?"

Ivo leaned Eros against his shoulder, comforting him.

"Shhh, it's okay. You poor thing. So, you and… Ivy broke up?"

Eros cried even harder.

"Now look what you did, you made him cry even more!

Yuki pulled Eros closer and leaned him against his own shoulder, soothing him.

"Shhh, it's okay. It'll be alright. Don't cry, baby boo," Yuki said, hugging him.

Ivo joined the hug as well.

A few moments later, they heard Bryn sniffling.

"What are you crying about? Are you heartbroken too?" Yuki asked.

"No… it's just… it's so sad," Bryn replied.

"Ugh, you're such an idiot! Now you're making me cry too! Wahh!!"

"What's wrong with you guys?! I told you… why are you crying? I'm going to cry too!" Yuki sobbed.

They all started crying together. Eros just stared at them, looking annoyed.

The three continued to cry, while Eros just stared out the window. After a while, they stopped when they reached a bridge.

"Let me out," Eros said, still staring out the window.

The three exchanged glances.

"Let me out. I need to get out," Eros repeated.

"We can't, Eros. We're in the middle of the bridge," Bryn said, continuing to drive.

"I said, let me out!" Eros shouted, startling the three of them.

Ivo and Yuki exchanged another look and suddenly grabbed Eros tightly.

"What the?! Let go of me! What are you doing?"

Eros struggled, but he couldn't break free.

"No, don't… don't do what you're thinking. You're still young! We have so many dreams!" Ivo said, hugging Eros tightly.

"Don't even think about it. No way. What about your future generations? What are we going to tell them about you? No, Eros, no!" Yuki pleaded.

"What are you doing? Let go of me! Bryn, stop the car!" He continued to struggle, but they wouldn't let him go.

"Let me out! I need to get out!!" Eros screamed. Ivo hugged him even tighter.

"Let go of me, Ivo! I need to get out! Let go..."

"No. You can't die. I won't let you go, no matter what," Ivo said.

Bwuaah...

Bryn stopped the car. Everyone froze, especially when Eros suddenly threw up, and it landed squarely on Ivo's face.

Yuki swallowed hard.

"I… told you to let me go," Eros said.

Yuki and Bryn immediately got out of the car. Eros followed. Ivo remained inside, completely still.

"I… I'm going to kill you, Eros," Ivo said through gritted teeth, wiping the vomit off his face.

"Eros!!!" he yelled, as Eros took off running, with his two friends in hot pursuit.
