It was time for Alanna to go home. Randy was getting ready to take her to the airport. Alanna went into Payton's room to say goodbye to her.
"Come here." Payton said. They hugged. "I'm gonna miss you."
"I'm gonna miss you to."
"Make sure you still Skype with me ok?"
"Yeah." Alanna kissed Payton's stomach. "I love you." "I can't wait to meet you in a few months."
Randy came into the room.
"Are you ready to go?" He asked.
"Yeah." Alanna said.
"I'll be back soon." Randy said looking at Payton.
"Ok." Payton said. They left.
About five minutes later Payton got a text. It read.
Hey just checking in. - Lindsey
Two days later it was early in the morning. The kitchen window was open. Randy was in the backyard talking to Alexa. Payton was trying not to listen but couldn't help herself.
"I miss you." She heard him say. "Ok." "I love you too." "Bye."
Even though she decided to move on. Hearing Randy say that hurt really bad.
Later that afternoon Payton was sitting in the living room.
"You should be resting." Randy said.
"I just woke up from a three hour nap." There was a knock at the door.
"Expecting someone?"
"Yeah." "You might wanna go upstairs."
"Why?"
"You won't like who's at the door." She answered the door. "Hi." Randy couldn't believe it when Lindsey walked in.
"Hi Payton." Lindsey said. "It's nice to see you."
"Payton we need to talk now." Randy said.
"Ok." Payton said. They went into the kitchen. "What?"
"What in the hell is he doing here?" Randy said angrily.
"We've been talking and he asked if he could come see me."
"Talking?" "Are you fucking kidding me?"
"Just as friends."
"Payton have you learned nothing?" "Lindsey wants you." Not friendship."
"Even if he does, so?"
"So?" "That's your response?"
"Yeah." "Why do you care anyway?" "You have Alexa, right?"
"Yeah." Randy grabbed his car keys and left.
