A/N: WOW. It has been quite a while since I updated any of my stories, much less write for a new fandom! Yes, this is my first sortofkindof Glee fic. But it is about Lea Michele & Cory Monteith, not Finchel - though I do love them dearly and will post a story about them soon - and basically starts when a few weeks after every noticed there was like, absolutely no pictures or anything of them together. I still have to get my timeline right, I'm still working on it, so I'm sure by the time I post the first actual chapter - if I get enough reviews, that is - I'll let you guys know when this actually takes place! Okay. The stuff in the italics, that's a flashback. This is just a prologue, very short and (not really) sweet. ;) hope you like it! Review if you do! Wooo!
Your Love Is A Shadow.
It's been two weeks. Two weeks and three days since they last talked. Well, aside from their scenes together, of course. He was still mad and she was too stubborn to give in first. She still didn't understand, she didn't give out that much, no one has a clue what happened off-set.
She sighed as she sat in her car, leaning her head against the steering wheel. What a completely unnecessary mess!
Her mind swam with thoughts of her upcoming –and very busy- schedule, but she couldn't focus, for her thoughts went to him once again, as always. She couldn't stop thinking of their fight…
"But I don't understand what the problem is!" She trailed after him in the long hallway, her short legs struggling to keep up with his long strides.
"It's not a pr-" He almost shouted, but then sighed, stopping right in front of her door to look at her. "Just – forget it."
She began to grow frustrated and almost stomped her foot, Rachel Berry style. Why was he being so cold to her?
"Don't ignore me! We need to talk about this!"
She continued to follow him into her bedroom, sitting down on her bed as she watched him fumble through her dresser.
When he ignored her again, she huffed, "Cory!"
Sensing an angry lecture, Cory sighed again, turning towards her, "I just came here to get some things, Lea. I don't have time to talk right now."
She crossed her arms in annoyance. "Don't give me that! You're plane doesn't leave until tonight!"
He stuffed a few of his shirts in his green duffel bag. "I still have a few places to go."
This time she did stomp her foot in frustration. She hated to be ignored and he knew it. Damn him.
She left the room, entering the kitchen and sitting on a chair, silently fuming.
After a few minutes pass, she heard him closing the door and straightened up in her seat when he walked toward the door to leave.
When he saw her sitting in the chair, still obviously pouting, he silently gestured for her to follow him.
She really didn't want to, but he was going to be gone for a few days and she didn't want him to leave in the middle of a fight with her.
He set his bag on the concrete outside and she leaned against the doorframe.
He finally spoke, "I don't wanna leave like this."
She uncrossed her arms. "Me neither."
"I guess I'm just in a bad mood." He looked into her eyes. "It's been a rough couple of weeks, you know?"
She nodded, still a little angry.
As if reading her mind, he reached his hand out to cup her cheek. "I'm sorry." He said sincerely and she believed him, nodding again.
He looked at his watch. "I really have to go now, but we'll talk when I get back, okay? I promise."
He kissed her forehead as she whispered "okay", leaning into his touch.
"I'll call you when I get there." He told her, grabbing his bag and walking to his car.
Lea pulled herself out of the memory with a groan. So much for a promise. He had gotten back from Canada a week and a half ago and they still haven't talked. She would've done something by now but she –both of them- were just so busy these days.
Lea's schedule was exploding with events to attend, Glee, songs to record in the studio, dance rehearsal, award shows, interviews… And while it was fun and she loved it all,… she really missed doing it with him.
A\N: And that's it for now! Tell me what you think! :)
