Shawn was finishing packing his bags; he didn't really want to leave however he had no other choice. Stephanie wasn't too pleased about him leaving for a few weeks, but what choice did he have they have to survive; he was currently the only one bringing in money for them. Stephanie came into the bedroom, as he finished putting his clothes in his bag. He turned around to look at his wife, she looked sad and disappointed, and he hated to see her like this. Shawn turned around to face her.

"Look honey I'm real sorry about this, but I promise as soon as I get back we can try for a Baby ok" Said Shawn

Stephanie let Shawn pull her in for a hug, she didn't want him to leave mainly because they should be trying for a Baby, starting a family and trying to mend there strained marriage. They weren't though where spending time away from each other, not only that but Stephanie felt like she needed to be with a man, she hadn't made love to Shawn for month's, every time they started to get close something would tear them apart.

"I have to go" Said Shawn he kissed his wife softly on the lips, he slipped his tongue in her mouth never wanting the kiss to end, Shawn knew there was nothing either of them could do. He was going away; they'd have to hope things would still be the same in 2 weeks. Shawn headed outside to the cab; Hunter helped Shawn with his bags.

"Right here are the keys to the apartment" Said Shawn hugging his friend "Look after my wife for me"

Hunter nodded he hated the woman, however now Shawn was gone; he felt he'd have to make an effort, unless he wanted Shawn to kick him out when he got back. Maybe he could invite Trish over, 'she may not be the sharpest tool in the drawer; however she has a nice set of tits' thought Hunter, as he headed back inside waving Shawn off.

Hunter do you have any money we need some food" Asked Stephanie

"Babe don't look at me"

"Well we need to do something" Said Stephanie annoyed by his laid back attitude.

"Just relax babe it's not that bad"

"Hunter the shelves are empty, as well as the fridge and stop calling me babe, I am not one of your slut's" Shouted Stephanie

"What is your problem, I try and be nice yet all you do is nag me, it's not my fault we've got no food."

"Well you live here as well Hunter, though if it was up to me you wouldn't" Shouted Stephanie

"Why are you always a bitch to me huh, what the hell did I do to piss you off" Shouted Hunter

"What did you do, since you've moved it all you've done is treat me like shit, your lucky Shawn loves you so much because I certainly don't"

"Glad to know how you really feel Steph….you need to grow the fuck up" Said Hunter leaving letting the door slam shut.

Stephanie was shaking, she'd just had the biggest argument ever with Hunter, recently they hadn't really spoke, now Shawn had gone they where back to ripping each other's heads off. Why did he have to be so bad tempered, he was such an asshole. Hunter didn't care about anyone; she wondered how long Trish would be able to put up with him. Stephanie needed money for the store, there was nothing left in the apartment, when Stephanie said the shelves where empty she wasn't kidding. She slammed the cupboard door in frustration, and sunk to the floor wishing Shawn was here to make it all go away.

"Shhh we have to be quiet" Whispered Trish

"I don't give a fuck what that bitch thinks" Shouted Hunter, he was drunk after the heated argument earlier, he decided to get wasted. When Trish showed up it was even better. Hunter stumbled to the door and looked for his key.

"Shit" Mumbled Hunter

"What's the matter baby" Said Trish holding him up

"I forgot my key"

"Ok" Said Trish rolling her eyes she began to knock on the door, Stephanie was in bed she could hear knocking on the door, she knew it was Hunter, he was cursing obscene words. She knew he must have been drunk the way he was acting. Stephanie was on two minds whether to lock him out, he deserved it after the way he spoke to her, though it would only make things worse, she opened the door.

"Thanks Stephanie" Said Trish giving her a fake smile; she helped Hunter to his room putting him on the bed.

The next morning Hunter woke up with a splitting headache, last night was a blur apart from him arguing with Stephanie. He turned over Trish was still asleep. Hunter sat up he was naked; he grabbed his boxers from the drawer, and went to the kitchen. Hunter hoped he didn't bump into Stephanie, after last night he wondered if they'd ever talk again. He cursed under his breath as he saw her sitting down, he went back to his room and put his pants on, he didn't want to piss her off anymore.

"If your looking for aspirin where all out" Said Stephanie

"Oh" Said Hunter

"I'm going shopping soon I'll get some"

"Here"

"What's this" Said Stephanie looking at the money he had just given to her.

"It's grocery money"

Hunter just went back into his room, sometimes he really confused her, they had a major argument last night. They weren't really speaking to each other, now he was giving her money. Stephanie realised he was doing it for himself, he was probably hungry, nope there was no way he could possibly do this, out the goodness of his heart, then again he probably didn't have one, the way he treated people. Stephanie put the money in her purse. She would have to get the groceries now she was hungry herself, how the food went so low so quickly, didn't make sense.

Hunter was up and dressed, he had been for the past hour he wished he wasn't so hungry, then again maybe if he'd given Stephanie the money sooner, he wouldn't be.

"Hunter baby I'm going to work" Said Trish coming out of the bedroom.

She gave him a long kiss on the lips before heading off to work, Hunter was all alone in the apartment, he wished he wasn't so damn hungry, also it didn't help that he had a splitting headache. He got up and grabbed a glass of water, he needed something to get rid of this hangover, he wished he hadn't drank so much, but he was pissed off after last night, now he was paying the price with a hangover from hell.
