Restless Morning
Disclaimer: I am the unlucky one who doesn't own any of the characters, but Meg Cabbot does!
I waited forever for Jesse to get home,but I couldn't take it any longer and I fell asleep on the couch. I guess I was pretty tired because it was 10 o' clock in the morning when I woke up. I thought maybe Jesse was tired and just went straight to bed when he walked in the door. I went and checked the bedroom and to my suprise he wasn't there. Yeah, so I might of been a little peeved at the fact my fiance didn't come home last night, but you can't keep a schedule for a medical student who works and goes to school. So I tried to calm myself by saying things like 'he's fine he probably fell asleep in the parking lot of the hospital' and 'he must of had a long shift.' But something told me that that wasn't the case. Then I did what any worried wife to be would do, I went looking for him. Yeah, that's right I went looking for him even though I had no real idea where to look. I went to the hospital and the other interns said they hadn't seen him sense last night. Now that got me worried and more peeved because he could have called me. Then I went to his work and they said they hadn't seen him sense yesterday morning. I guess you could say I was about to blow up, but I kept my cool for the time being.
I went back to the house and saw that Jesse's car was in the driveway. Oh, so now he decides to come home, when I have been looking for him all over gods creation. Maybe I was overreacting a little and I was just being paranoid. I got out of the car with such confidence and walked to the front door. I turned the handle and opened the door to find a drunken Jesse sprawled out on the couch.
"Jesse," I whispered in his ear.
"Susannah," he said groggly.
"What were you thinking," I asked with a little hint of anger in my voice.
"I just went to get a drink with the other guys and I guess I had to many beers because I passed out in the bathroom," he answered.
"Oh Jesse, I thought something bad happened," I said in a whisper.
"You don't think passing out in a bathroom isn't bad, well it is."
"The bar owner found me on the floor and woke me up, you have no idea how embarrassed I was."
"No I guess I don't know, but you scrared the hell out of me."
"I'm sorry Susannah, I didn't think I was going to get drunk."
"As long as your okay."
"Yeah, I'm okay, but I have a whicked headache," he said while rubbing his temples.
"I'll get you some aspirin," I said and got up to go to the kitchen. I thought to myself while I got the medicine. I wonder why he chose to drink, usually he's not like that. I hope this isn't the start of some long nights. I gave him some water and the aspirin and for the rest of the day I took care of him.
I know what your thinking, okay maybe I don't but I'm just getting started! I hope you like this Chapter...Please R&R!
