I stare at the black screen of the TV from where I’m sitting on the couch, hands folded in my lap. Jesse supervised as Will packed up his shit from the spare room and left. I couldn’t stand to be anywhere near him; otherwise, I might have hurt him even more than he already was. He eventually admitted that a friend of his got some people that they knew to jump him. He didn’t know exactly when it was going to happen, but he knew it wasn’t just some random act of violence. He may not have known the people who jumped him and took his shit, but he damn well knowingly put them up to it. And all because he wanted to get me away from Jesse. Well, he never expected Jesse to show up at my door and ruin his whole plan. Who the fuck have I been friends with for the past ten years? Was he always this insane and I just didn’t see it? Or was this something that happened gradually?

The couch dips next to me as Jesse sits down and hands me an already opened beer. I quietly thank him and take a big swig. His hand lands on my thigh and he gives it a squeeze.

“I’m sorry,” he says softly.

I shake my head. “Not your fault.”

“Doesn’t make me feel any less shitty about it.”

I sigh and drop my head to his shoulder. “I’m glad you’re here with me.”

He leans his head against mine. “Me, too.”

We sit like that for a good five minutes before Jesse lifts his head and gives my thigh another squeeze.

“Finish that beer so we can go to bed. I’m fucking exhausted,” he yawns.

“Mmm. I have an interview with the psychiatrist tomorrow at 11:00 am to see if I’m fit to go back to work.”

“Well, it’s close to three now, so you really need to get to bed,” he replies and shoves to his feet.

I down the rest of the beer then take his outstretched hand, letting him help pull me up.

“I’m sorry our date ended like that. I’ll make it up to you, I promise,” I murmur sleepily as we walk down the hall to my room.

Jesse just hums in agreement and starts stripping out of his clothes as he makes his way around to the far side of the bed. When he’s down to his briefs, he climbs under the covers and snuggles down into the pillow with a heavy sigh.

“Come, let me spoon you,” he mutters, floppily waving his arm at me.

I can’t help but snicker at him. He can be so goofy sometimes. I get down to my briefs and slip under the covers next to him. Jesse immediately grabs me and yanks me closer. I settle down on my side with my back to him. He scoots closer and plasters the front of his body along the back of mine and wraps his arm around my waist, while his face gets tucked into the back of my neck.
