I sighed and closed my eyes, remaining silent for a while. Finally, when I had sobered up a little, I turned over so I was facing her and I looked up into her eyes. "Thanks for being there.."
"Of coarse. I would never leave you alone,"I said with a smile, rubbing her arm gently. What kind on monster would I be if I let her leave the bad alone? Especially now... I know her story, I know what that blackness behind her eyes is, why she is cold and empty sometimes, and why she is popping those pills like M&Ms.
I smiled slightly and leaned forwards, kissing her cheek. "I'm glad." I said warily. I closed my eyes and sighed, my emotions in control at last. All I wanted to do now was sleep..
I could sense how completely exhausted she was and I looked down at her,"Want me to go or stay?" I felt totally comfortable right here, holding her in my arms. My cheek tingled where her lips had been and I felt warm and fuzzy inside. However, she would never know, I'm positive she doesn't feel the same way... But, I'll take what I can get.
"Stay please.." I breathed. I snuggled more comfortably in her arms and I slowly, but surely fell asleep.
I grabbed the wet rag at tossed it at the wall, turning the lights off. I pulled the blankets around us and wrapped my arms around her a bit more snugly, holding her close. I was so content, so at peace wih her close to me..
The next morning I woke up with a huge headache. I got up and went to the bathroom, looking in the mirror. I looked awful. I took a quick shower, then I went and waited for her to wake up.
When I felt her stir I rolled over into my side. Slowly I sat up slowly and rubbed my eyes, looking up at her,"Hey.."
I smiled down at her. "Hi. Sleep well?" I asked.
"Yeah, I was fine,"I said with a smile, nodding slowly. She looked better... Real, sober.
I smiled. "That's good." I pulled my hair into a curly ponytail and I yawned. "So, are you hungry?"
"Haha, yeah, actually, I'm really hungry,"I said with as I got up and tried to smooth out my wrinkled clothing.
"Here. You're about my size." I handed her a skirt and a blouse with some nice sandles. I handed her a brush and I changed clothes, not bothering to go to the bathroom. I'm not shy.
I stripped and changed as well, rushing out my hair and letting it fall around my face loosely. The skirt was a bit short, but flattering and I almost felt sexy, smirking softly, stuffing my clothes ito my purse.
I smiled at her when she was done changing. "Lookin good!" I complimented her. I then took her to IHOP for pancakes.
"How did you sleep, okay?"I asked after we got our breakfasts. I took a small bite and sat back comfortably, my legs crossed under the table.
I shrugged. "Yeah, I guess." I answered, chewing off a piece of bacon. I looked around the room, studying people. And the really cute waitress.
I saw her checking out the waitress and I felt jealous stomping around in my stomach. I ate a good portion of my breakfast before noddin to Jez,"You should ask her out..."
I blinked, and looked up at her, shaking my head. "Nah. You can't just ask a girl out. Because you can't tell if they're straight or not." I shrugged. "I'm not interested, she's just cute."
"Yeah... Okay,"I said. When the waitress came back, I covered the bill and smiled at Jez,"Any plans for today?"
I shrugged. "Not really." I replied. "What about you?"
"Just thought I would stick with you, if that's okay. I heard about this new club downtown though, want to check it out?" I took one last sip from my soda before rising and straightening my skirt, looking down at her
I nodded. "Alright. Cool." I replied. I got up and left with her. We went to go see a movie, then I stopped the car at the mall. "I'm taking you shopping."
"Oh dear lord... Jez, you don't have to,"I said through a small fit of laughter,"You can't make me look good, I swear."
"Wanna bet?" I asked with a grin. "It's okay! I have more money than I need." I grabbed her hand and led her inside. I took her to a few good shops and got her to try on stuff. I actually found her some really good outfits. After we shopped for clothes, I stepped pretty close to her and ran my fingers through her dark hair. "Have you ever thought about highlights?"
The space between us was so small that I could smell her sweet perfume, my heart rate quickening,"I... I might consider them with some convincing..."
"Well.." I looked into her eyes and smiled. "I think blonde or red highlights would look great on you."
"Red would be fun,"I said with a grin, chuckling softly,"Should I cut it?"
I shook my head. "No. I like long hair. But layers would be cool. You can do more with your hair." I took a small step back. "What do you say?"
"Sure, why the hell not?"I couldn't help but buckle as she led me towards the salon. I was nervous... But this would be fun, right?
