Robbie blinked up at his ceiling, hearing the barely audible noise of rain hitting against the gutters. With a lot of difficultly, he was able to pull himself into a sitting position. He listened carefully for any signs that anyone was home for they could close his window. The thin line of light filtered under his door. If his mother was home the woman would have turned off the hall light.

It wasn't a must that he close the window, he wasn't cold. He was actually quite hot, but he couldn't fall asleep and honestly, he wanted company. His mind was filled with too many thoughts, thoughts that he hated to think about. Thoughts he couldn't manage to escape.

His eyes found his lonely pear phone laying on his nightstand. Who would talk to him at this hour? Well, he was aware of one being who had too.

"What, what, what," Is how he is greeted when the girl picked up on his fifth call. He had her number programmed into his phone on speed dial.

Robbie leans his head back against the wall behind him. "Can you come over here?"

"No."

"If you come now you won't have to come today and you can skip tomorrow too." He quickly said before his 'girlfriend' could hang up.

There's a pause of silence. "You mean that?"

"I… I try not to lie." He tells her, shrugging his shoulders.

Jade actually snorts. "Oh, because none of what you're doing right now is a lie?" Robbie only closes and eyes and clears his throat. "Fine, I'm on my way."

"Wait," Robbie calls. "Bring frozen yogurt." She hangs up in reply.

When Jade finally does show up an hour later, she bursts into his room wearing a flannel shirt and grey sweats with a big hole in one of the legs, and her hair looks like a black nest. Yeah, it's like three in the morning but he wasn't expecting this monster.

She actually made him jump when she came in, her glare wasn't helping. After staring at the fuming girl in his doorway for a few seconds, he began laughing. A body shacking laugh that had him throwing his head back and shaking his head and holding his stomach.

"Keep laughing…" The girl said threateningly coming further into the room. "I'm going to hurt you."

That only made him laugh harder. When he had finally calmed down enough to open his eyes, he found the girl was searching through his drawers.

"Hey, what are you doing?" He exclaimed, laughter still tainting his voice. "There isn't anything in there."

She glanced at him, "Trying to find something to stick in your mouth."

"I'm sorry, Jade." He told her insincerely. "I'm done laughing now."

Jade quiet her search and turned to look at him, sneer in place. "What?"

"My frozen yogurt…"

"Yeah right, name this place you get yogurt at three in the morning."

Robbie gave her a look. "24/7 Yogurt… It's near Tori's house."

"Really…" Jade asked truly surprised. "This place is open 24/7?" Robbie nodded. "Oh"

Robbie gently sighed, "Whatever, I guess I'll live." He returned his attention back to the book he had in his lap.

"Why am I here?" Jade gritted out after a few seconds.

"I told you to come…" Robbie told her slowly. At her look he continued. "Look, I only wanted company."

Jade blew air out of her nose. "Why?" She asked in a way that obviously showed her lack of interest.

Robbie closed his book and sighed again. "I'm afraid."

His words caught her off guard, obviously. "So, I'm supposed to ask why you're afraid now."

Robbie gently ran a hand through his hair. "You can if you want to." He told her. "I won't tell you. Can you help me into my chair?"

She helps him into his chair and he rolls himself out of his bedroom, forcing Jade to follow him. In the living room and begins fumbling with the tall bookshelf in the room – ignoring her.

"Fine ignore me but remember you're going to have to pee." That actually got a snort out of Robbie as Jade flopped down on his couch.

"My mom finally installed a rail. I don't need your help anymore."

"Good, I can leave." The girl made to get off the couch.

"No you can't."

"Yes, that's right, I'm being blackmailed." Jade mumbled. "When did you become… mean?"

"Around the time I realized I couldn't walk." He answered bitterly. "Maybe I've always been mean." He realized that he had always been hiding behind Rex, that he wasn't as nice and caring as he thought.

"I really do feel bad about what happened." Jade admitted in a rare quiet voice. "It wasn't really supposed to happen like that."

"Obviously," Robbie commented. "In a few days I have to see my physical therapist." He tells her which means she has to take him.

She groans quietly. "I thought you didn't have to go."

That's true he really didn't have to go until a nosey therapist thought it would be a good idea, and could get him out of his supposed depression. "I have to go now, and you have to be a good girlfriend and give me lots of support."

"Of course," the girl says with faked sweetness. "I'll do anything to get you walking again."

Robbie found the movie he was looking for and popped it in. "You're the best!" He announced back with just as much sarcasm.

Jade made a face. "I like you much better like this."

"Well…"
