One Hundred Sleepless Nights
Cuatro
I yawned as I tossed over for what had seemed like the hundredth time since I’d crawled into my bed. I sat up slowly and looked around my dark room, then to the alarm clock on my dresser and sighed. “5:45!” I screamed and tossed myself back onto the pillow. I just couldn’t seem to sleep, and I couldn’t seem to get him off my mind.
I sighed as I licked my lips and stared up at the ceiling with a frustrated groan escaping my throat. “What the fuck is wrong with me, it was a god damned one night stand.” I muttered to myself before slowly getting up, figuring I should probably take a hot bath since I wasn’t going to be able to relax any other way.
I got up and slowly walked to the bathroom, grabbing a towel and my bathrobe off the back of the door and turned on the water in the tub, letting it fill up and adding bubbles as it went. I shook my hair down and looked at myself in the mirror with a sigh as I noticed a few forming bruises on my skin. I licked my lips and shed my shorts and tank top before crawling into the hot water, and allowing my body to sink down in to it. I glanced over the room and then let myself submerge into the water slowly for a moment, just taking in the time to just relax and be myself.
I stayed in the water for a good twenty five minutes or so before draining the tub and getting out with a sigh. I checked the clock and bit my lip as I walked over and grabbed my phone, picking it up and looking at the number I had saved before getting in to my bed that night. I sighed and tossed the phone on to the bed in front of me and shook my head before dropping it down into my hands.
“I can’t be falling for someone.” I murmured to myself, mentally reminding myself of what I had moved for, of what I was moving away from. I sighed and grabbed my phone opening a text quickly and sighed.
‘get out of my head.’ I sent with a winky fae and sighed heavily.
I tossed my phone back down and got up heading to grab some clothing quickly from my closet and started getting dress, granted only in sweats and a tank top, but still was more than a towel. I raised a brow and looked at the clock, only 7:30 and my phone was going off already with a text message.
I walked over grabbing my phone off the bed and smiled laughing a bit at the text I got back.
‘No thanks, I kind of like it in here. At least I’m still there with you in one way.’ He said with a smiley. I laughed and shook my head slowly.
‘Well…. Do you want to be here with me for real?’ I asked in reply and sighed looking down at my phone, sending before I could stop myself and licked my lips hesitantly glancing back at the phone.
I set it down and went to brush my teeth quickly, walking back to read the reply a few minutes later and smiled a bit to myself, even though it was against everything I had originally wanted, I was excited.
‘Yeah, I’ll head on over if you want, maybe then I can get some relaxation. My band-mates won’t shut up, they won’t go to sleep.’ He joked and I rolled my eyes smiling again.
‘See you soon good looking.’ He sent and I giggled a bit before slapping my hand over my mouth and running around to quickly clean up. Chances were he’d be seeing the rest of my apartment today. And I didn’t want to look like a slob then.
