"What's wrong?" Chad asked, pulling me out of my thoughts.
"Huh?"
"You've been daydreaming all afternoon."
"I'm sorry, I have a lot on my mind."
"Like what?"
"You wouldn't want to know."
"So, are we still on for later?"
"I'll try get tonight off."
"Good, it's been a while since we had a night out, just the two of us."
"Mhm." I said as I stirred my hot chocolate.
"You're really away with the fairies, aren't you?" Chad laughed.
"So, I keep being told." I looked up at Chad. "I might go and visit my mom for a couple of days, you know get away on my own for a while, clear my head."
"That sounds nice, I can go and see how my mom is as well."

"Trixie, Trixie Trixie Trixie." I said as I entered her flat.
"What?"
"I need your help."
"Okay?" Brian said as he followed me into the living room. "What?"
"I fucked Justin."
"Oh my God, when?" Brian said excitedly.
"Just before he left on Sunday."
"And it's taken you until Wednesday to tell me this?"
"I'm sorry."
"Why exactly do you need my help?"
"I can't stop thinking about him."
"Are you going soft?"
"No."
"So what are you gonna do?"
"I've told Chad I'm gonna visit my mom for a few days."
"This is like one of those tragic love stories."
"So we're both gonna die at the end?" I laughed.
"No, we're gonna get you a man."
"I have one."
"True, what are you going to do about Chad?"
"I don't want to hurt him; he's trying to put on a brave face, but his mom really isn't great."
"Shit."
"What do I do Trix?"
"Apparently Justin."
"Shut up." I moaned causing Brian to laugh.
