College Life

Once at my door, I hugged her gently, closing my eyes. "Goodnight." I whispered.

"Goodnight,"I said softly before going to my own room, leaving the door open so I could hear her.

(Going to sleep, Nuh night!)

((Goodnight!))

I went and laid down and after a very long while, I finally fell asleep in the cold lonely bed.

In the morning I got up and made breakfast, but some eggs and toast. The knocked on her door very lightly, not to wake her if she was asleep.

I opened my eyes, feeling groggy and tired. "Come in.." I said, sitting up.

I walked in and sat at the foot of her bed,"Here, eat, it's just toast and eggs..."

"Thank you." I whispered. I ate silently, then after i smiled at her. "Thank you."

"You're welcome,"I said with a smile, setting her plates on her nightstand. I felt her forehead, she wasn't warm yet, so that was good.

I closed my eyes at her gentle touch. It felt good. I smiled slightly and looked into her eyes.

I smiled back at her and looked her over,"How are you feeling?"

I shrugged. "A little shitty, but I'll be fine." I answered, looking down.

"What can I do for you?"I asked, placing my hand on hers.

I looked down at our hands, then I looked up at her. I smiled. "You've already done a lot for me sweetheart."

"Well, I'll be here for awhile,"I said, giving her hand a soft squeeze before rising up.

I watched as she walked out and i went and took a shower. I then went outside to smoke a cigarette and it reminded me of the bar.

I followed her and smiled,"I would kill for one of those, now..."

I smiled at her and handed her one. "No need to do that." I teased.

I handed it back,"Pregnant, remember?"

"Oh yeah. Right." I said, putting it behind my ear.

I chuckled,"I miss alcohol and cigarettes,"I said with a smile, leaning against the porch rail,"But I've got to take care o this kid..."

I just nodded, remaining silent. Shes right.. I finished my cigarette then went inside.

Did I say something wrong? I followed after her, sighing softly as I stood in the kitchen. Iwas terribly bored..

I turned to look at her. "Im getting more furniture today. Wanna come?"

"Do you think you should be going out?"I asked, turning to face her. I didn't want her to get sick in the middle of the store or something..

I sighed. "Im not going to mope around all day without a tv.."

I chuckled softly and nodded,"Okay, I can agree with you there."

We went and I ordered a couch to be delivered and I got 3 flatscreen TVs. One for the living room, my room, and the room where Amy is staying.

"So, are you going to get cable installed this week, too?"I asked as we walked down the sidewalk.

I nodded and went to my car. We got in and i said,"Are you okay?"

"Of coarse, why wouldn't I be?"I asked, smiling at her as I buckled up.

I smiled. "Just making sure. Are you hungry?"

"Sure! Whatcha want to go get?"I asked with a smile, watching her. She looked okay and was doing alright. I was just glad I could be here for her.

I started the car and smiled at her. "Does Rosas sound okay?" I asked.

"Sure, whatever that is,"I said with a chuckle, nodding slowly.

"Its a Mexican food place. They have killer bean and cheese burritos." I said and i drove us over there.

"Great,"I said with a smile, running my fingers through my hair,"It sounds delicious!"

I drove us over there and I got a burrito. As we were sitting there, a man passed by and he smelled strongly of alchohol and i ran to the bathroom to puke.

I waited for her outside the door and sighed softly, knocking,"I'll pay and we can go.."

I slumped against the stall and took a deep breath. "Im okay."

"Alright,"I said softly as I walked to the register, paying for our food and then waiting for her outside the door.
