Summary
Crowley moved to close the door but Aziraphale reached out and blocked the barrier from slamming into place.
Crowley growled and spun around, sloppy and uncoordinated from the alcohol, and stalked off, muttering, “Suit yourself. ‘M not talkin’.”
He took another swig right out of the whiskey bottle. His throat bobbed up and down with the large gulp. Aziraphale pushed forward, letting himself inside, and immediately noticed two other empty bottles on the coffee table, both freshly drained.
The reality of their situation set in.
Aziraphale’s bottom lip trembled, and he choked out, “Oh, Crowley. How did we get here?”
…
When Aziraphale returns after the Second Coming that never was, he finds Crowley drunk, angry, and convinced he has been abandoned for good. What begins as a confrontation spirals backward through six thousand years of shared history, from the birth of stars and Eden to friendship and where they are today.
Sometimes life is not about choosing sides. Sometimes it is about finally choosing each other.
