Logan sighed. He bit his lip nervously and waited for Patton to explain.

Patt 🎠💘: so uh

Logan: Tell me about the habits that have resurfaced.

Patt 🎠💘: coffee

Patt 🎠💘: and getting no sleep

Logan: Oh. Well, what is the new habit you mentioned just a moment ago?

Patt 🎠💘: you'll scream at me

Logan: I will not.

Logan: I swear on my life.

Logan: I've never screamed at you except out of worry and other specific situations that aren't very important at this moment.

Patt 🎠💘: yes you will

Patt 🎠💘: you won't love me anymore because I'm just a big old disappointment

Patt 🎠💘: I'm sorry I'm not who I was in high school

Patt 🎠💘: idk why I thought it was a good idea to try it

Logan: Just tell me about the habit/addiction. And know that I'll always love you no matter what.

Patt 🎠💘: I doubt that you'll love me after I tell you

Logan: I doubt that your doubt will come true.

Patt 🎠💘: fine..

Patt 🎠💘: but prepare for the worst I guess?

Logan: Okay, I will.

Patt 🎠💘: Logan..

Patt 🎠💘: Logan, I've started drinking and I never told you because I knew you'd hate me but I didn't stop and I know I should but I don't know how

Patt 🎠💘: ..

Patt 🎠💘: Logan?

Patt 🎠💘: hello?

Logan: I'm sorry for not replying. That was just a lot to process.

Patt 🎠💘: Logan I'm sorry 😞

Logan: Don't be sorry.

Patt 🎠💘: and the reason I was in the hospital was because I drove drunk and got into a crash with about seven other cars

Patt 🎠💘: I could've died and was never able to respond to your messages, and that one time I left you on read - that was because I wanted to text you as soon as I woke up but before I could say anything, the lady made me put the phone down

Logan: Oh...

Logan: Patton, I'm coming to Canada.

Patt 🎠💘: logie you really don't have to

Patt 🎠💘: I'll be fine! And you're busy with your job

Logan: I won't be fine until you're fine!

Patt 🎠💘: that's really sweet and romance movie cliche but like

Patt 🎠💘: don't do this just for me

Patt 🎠💘: go do something more important

Logan: Doing you is most important.

Logan: Wait, that sounded wrong.

Logan: But I'm coming. At least for a short visit.

Patt 🎠💘: you don't need me

Patt 🎠💘: I'm just freaking stupid.

Logan: Shush. I can't live without you.
