Waking up alone when you fell asleep the opposite way is hell. I felt around the bed for Jeff. No one.
I got my cell phone from the nightstand. I blindly dialed Matt's cell phone.
"Mornin' sunshine." He answered cheerfully.
"Is Jeff there?" I barked.
"You guys fight too much." Matt said.
I groaned, "Let me talk to him."
He sighed, "Fine!"
"Good morning, love." Jeff said cheerfully.
"Why didn't you wake me up?"
Jeff seemed taken back by my question, "You were asleep."
"But I want to spend time with you."
"Well! You were asleep! I can't wake you up when you're sleeping." He yelled.
"Just fucking tell everyone we're fighting!" I yelled back at him.
"I will! Stop being such a baby!"
I never said anything, my mind raced a million different ways. My voice softened and lowered a few decibels.
"I just wanted to spend time with you." I whispered.
He sighed, "We've spent all day together."
"I was asleep."
"No. I'm out with my friends." He said sternly.
"They're my friends too."
"Jess. I'm. OUT. With. MY. Friends."
"Fine. Stay out with your friends, I really don't care." I said then hung up and turned my phone off.
The room was completely silence, the silence that makes your ears ring and your heart ache.
I sat up in the bed and rested my back against the headboard.
There was a knock at the door, I sighed and rolled my eyes, "Who is it?!"
"Phil." He answered.
My heart skipped a beat.
"Come in!" I said excitedly.
"Jess…the door's locked."
"Sorry!" I laughed then ran to the door and let him in.
He held two huge Hardee's bags in his arms.
"Where is everybody?" He asked as he walked in, closing the door with his foot.
"Jeff's friends went out without me." I said as I grabbed a bag from Phil and sat down on the bed.
"What do you mean by Jeff's friends?" He asked, sitting down on the other bed, pouring the bag out beside him.
"We got in a fight. He's always hanging out with his friends, it's not that I don't want him to be with his friends." I unwrapped a biscuit and took a big bite, "I just want to know when he's gone and for him to at least want to spend time with me."
Phil sighed, "I don't know. Some times us guys just need time on our own. It's a male thing."
I smiled, "I asked him why he didn't wake me up and he said because I was sleeping. So I said I wanted to spend time with him and he started yelling."
"He's just being a prick right now…"
"No…I don't know he's been doing this lately. All the time they leave without saying jack shit to me."
Phil frowned, "I'll always be here."
I smiled and made a face at him.
"You bitch!" He faked shock and jumped at me, he tackled me backwards onto the bed.
I laughed, "You'll never catch meeee!!"
I wiggled away from him and ran across the room. He wrapped one arm around my waist and pulled me backwards.
I slumped in his arms, "You caught me."
He laughed and kissed my forehead.
"Jeff doesn't tell me he loves me anymore. We've said it once…" I spaced out.
Phil sighed, "I don't know what's up with him."
"Me either."
I sat down on the bed and finished devouring my breakfast. I've got a bad feeling about tonight.
I just wanted to say I'm sorry.
