I felt my pocket buzzed and Lacus's eyes drift over to me for the umpteenth time this morning. Curiosity was clearly brimming in his eyes as he sat across from me, an eyebrow quirked in a silent question: who keeps texting you?
I sighed, fishing the device out of my pant pocket and eyed the screen as it displayed that I had thirty-one new text messages…
What time do you have work?
Oh, you left some of your stuff here &Guren shitting brick about it
Are you awake?

No wait, if you're at work… did you forget about it in your desk?
Are you in the shower?
Did you fall asleep on the toilet?

"I have to leave early… please let her know, I went home feeling sick and will be in early tomorrow morning to finish up today's papers…" I monotonously noted as I stuffed my phone in my pocket and grabbed my jacket off the back of my chair.
As I exited my office, I heard Lacus call out: "Aww~ Trouble in paradise?" before howling with laughter that was swiftly cut off as the door slammed shut.
