I pushed open the door to the room I had been using for the last two years.

We slept apart.

By choice.

I snored, or so I was told.

I preferred it that way.

It was pitiful to masturbate next to the person that professed to love you.

I quickly swiped my dirty pants and socks off the floor and did a quick look over in the attached bathroom.

She stood just inside the doorway following my every move.

"Do you sleep here?" She asked as I approached with my t-shirt and sweats in hand.

"Yes."

"Why?"

Because of you.
