"sammy? sammy? sammy? wake up please." i flipped over from caseys arms to find laura standing by my bedside, i looked at the clock, 4 AM. too early for me. much too early right now. we only got home, like, a half hour ago.
"whats wrong laura?"
"i cant sleep. and casey wont wake up...or zoe. or tony." i yawned and stretched my arms out.
"laura do you wanna sleep here? with casey?" she nodded, then hesitated,
"but where will you go?" she whispered, i smiled,
"ill be fine. just go to sleep ok?" i slipped out of bed, then picked her up and put her down where i was sleeping. she stretched out, and fell asleep in an instant. lucky her. i padded into the kitchen and made a cup of coffee. then i grabbed my homework and went to our walk-in closet, where i did my homework, and drank some of my coffee. but apparently 'some' wasnt 'enough.'
an hour later, i fell asleep. in a walk-in closet. yes, in a walk-in closet.
"sammy..sammy..sammy. man, she really was tired." my eyes fluttered open to find casey standing over me.
"mm. hi casey." my papers and laptop were spread around me, and my coffee cup was sitting on a box next to me. my head rested on the bare floor, and i had no blankets whatsoever. casey sighed and shook his head,
"care to explain how you fell asleep in the closet?"
"well. laura came to me around 4 am cause she couldnt sleep and no one else would wake up. so i told her to sleep where i was, and i went and made a cup of coffee and started my homework. but since i only got, like, a half hour of sleep, i guess i was still tired and fell asleep." he shook his head,
"its amazing what youll give up for other people you know that?" i sat up in his arms and he pulled me tighter to him. suddenly i heard shouting and yelling. i frowned and started to pull myself out of caseys arms and crawl out of the closet to the door. but casey pushed me down so that he was on top of me and said,
"sammy you dont want to know what that is." i tried to push him off, but he was too stong,
"yes i do. or you could just tell me." i cocked my head at him as he sighed,
"welllllllll..."he stretched the syllables, i gave him a warning look. "all right! all right!" he hesitated,
"casey." i hesitated, "is it about me?" he hesitated and opened his mouth to say something, but i beat him to it, "tell me the truth." the look on his face was sad,
"..." i frowned,
"casey i didnt catch any of that." i crossed my arms and looked him straight in the eyes, he took a deep breath before starting over,
"i guess my aunt doesnt exactly love you for some weird unknown reason, and thinks that i should break off the engagment and never talk to you again and that youre not right for me and...well...yeah." his muscles weakened a little and i pulled myself up into his arms,
"you...youre breaking off the engagment?" i asked, tears formed in my eyes. he shook his head,
"of course not. thats just what she thinks." i lie back down on my back, then pulled him on top of me,
"good. because if you did, i wouldnt be able to get over it." he smiled and brushed his lips against mine. i wrapped my arms around his waist and his arms rested by my sides. i pressed my lips harder to the kiss, and my arms tightened around his waist as one of his hands flew to my cheek and rested there.
a knock on the front door inturrupted our kiss, he carefully pulled away, and glared in the direction of the front door. i giggled and lightly pushed him off, he slung his arm around my shoulders, and guided me to the door. as we passed by the living room, i saw laura and zoe watching a movie on the TV, they glanced up at us as we passed. laura jumped up, and ran to me, where she hugged me,
"hi sammy!" i laughed, she raised her arms signaling she wanted me to pick her up. casey answered the door as i kenlt down and picked up the little girl. "sammy can you watch a movie with us?" she asked,
"sure, what movie?" she pointed to the screen where 'dispicable me' was playing. i sat down on the couch with the girls and a half hour later, the move finished, and i relized that i was starving.
in the kitchen casey was flipping pancakes, i wrapped my hand in his, and rested my head on his shoulder,
"who was at the door?" i asked,
"just anna and dad," he flipped the pancakes on a plate before pouring more batter in the pan. i tugged lightly on his shirt until he looked at me, i pulled his head down and kissed him. this time, we had the pleasure of not being inturrupted by the door...but by 2 giggling girls. i broke the kiss and turned around only to find laura and zoe hiding behind the counter. casey turned me around again and continued our kiss,
"casey," i pulled away, and pointed to his pancakes, he glanced at them and was about to kiss me again when he relized what he saw. he broke away and flipped the pancakes over, the girls giggled as casey watched his hands wander from my waist to under my shirt. he pulled himself closer and matched his lips to mine.
more giggling. he handed me the spatula and raced after the 2 girls. i flipped pancakes to the sounds of squealing, until laura and zoe ran in the kitchen, they grasped onto my legs as casey came running in.
"thats not fair!" he complained as i heald up my spatula to him. i flipped the last pancake onto the plate and handed the plate to casey after flicking off the burner,
"i loooove you." he looked at me suspiciously, i kissed his cheek lightly.
"wheres the syrup?" zoe asked, i opened the top cabinet and pulled out the syrup. i handed it to her, closed the cabinet and followed casey to the dining room. laura climbed onto her chair and grabbed a pancake from the stack. then she poured, like, a gallon of syrup on top. i gasped and tsked,
"laura do you need that much syrup?" i asked, she smiled and handed the syrup to zoe, who did the same. casey, of course, gagged in disgust and went to the fridge. when he came back, he poured chocolate sauce on his pancakes. chocolate sauce. i stared at him, and he handed it to me.
"which would you prefer? chocolate sauce? syrup? or both?" he asked as he added syrup to his creation, then added syrup and chocolate sauce to mine before i had time to protest,
"casey!" i squealed, he laughed and naughtily kissed my cheek.
"chill babe. its really good just try it." i stuck out my tongue and crossed my arms,
"its also really unhealthy." he used his hands to pry my arms apart, then took one of my hands with his.
"eh, just try it would ya?" ok, so he was right. it tasted good.
"mmm...it tastes ok i guess..." he laughed,
"admit it, its god-like." the girls added chocolate sauce to theirs too, even though i tried to insist that they shouldnt because they already had a gallon of syrup on there. i was halfway through my chocolate-sauce-and-syrup pancakes, when the door burst open. i heard heels stomp around the front of the apartment,
"zoe! laura!" oh god. it was caseys aunt. his hand tightened around mine as the 2 of us stood up. she entered the dining room and motioned for her two girls to get up, but not, of course, before glaring at me. "come on girls. we're leaving." they both hung onto me,
"no, mommy!" laura complained, "i wanna stay with sammy and casey!" tony came out of the guest room for the first time in forever, just as heather came up from behind her aunt.
"hello tony." heather said grimly, he smirked,
"heather. how nice to see you again." i glanced at casey, and he shrugged, as his aunt tried to pry the girls free,
"come girls. we're going to see a movie." i nodded for them to go with her. "tony you can come too." he began to object, "its not a choice tony." the three children finished breakfast then, after zoe and laura gave me a hug goodbye, they followed their mother out the door. casey and i finished our own breakfast, then did the dishes.
i started my homework while casey took a shower, on the bright side, my homework was minimized because of how well i did on my essay. suddenly a pair of wet hands was soaking into my waist. a pair of just-as-wet lips kissed my neck lightly. water dripped onto my papers,
"casey! please!" i pushed my papers away from him. his hair was drenched, he shook it like a wet dog, getting water everywhere. he was wearing a pair of boxers, and that was it. he carefully pushed my papers to the ground, i began to protest, but he shut me up with a kiss.
our lips moved perfectly together as he began to pull off my shirt. i pulled away and stared at him, he matched our lips again, and began to fiddle with the button on my shorts. i reached down to stop him,
"casey, come on. i gotta finish preparing for the finals i have tonight, then i have to go to work, and then have to prepare for graduation, and apply at the FBI agency. when im done with all of that, and only then, can i do this."
"but thats not fair!" he complained loudly, like a 2 year old who wont get a cookie. i picked my damp papers up from off the floor and shook the loose drops of water off of them, i sighed,
"not everything has to be fair casey," i began scribbling on my FBI form, "you should know that." he rolled over so that he was laying on my papers, "casey! get up!" he shook his head and pulled me back down on top of him.
"sammyyy," i shifted off of him and finished signing papers. i licked the envelope closed and handed it to him,
"here. i need you to send this for me, i have to go to work." by the time id finished being reseptionast for a little while at the police station, aced my test, and gotten my things for my college graduation, it was 3 am when i got home.
i quietly began to unlock the door, when suddenly it swang open.
"where have you been?" he exclaimed, i yawned and pushed past him,
"casey please. im exhausted, ive worked way too much today and i just need to sleep. besides, i already told you where i was before i left." he lead me to our bedroom, but as i was changing, i thought i thought i saw someone, watching me.
'impossible.' i thought to myself, 'we're on the 15th floor! how could there be someone watching me throught the window on the 15th floor?'
but i was wrong. boy was i wrong.
