Tap.

I slowly opened my eyes to the faint sound of a tap. I stayed cuddle under my blankets with Josie snoring lightly next to me as I listened to see if what I heard was real, or if it was simply apart of my dream realm that leaked into reality.

After a few silent seconds, my heavy eyelids began to close - then I heard it again.

Tap.

My eyes snapped open once more when I heard the clear sound of something hitting against my window.

My initial thought is that it was Anakin, but I highly doubted that since we already saw each other just a few hours ago, and we planned to see each other again at noon tomorrow. But then again, I wouldn't put it past him to show up again.

Tap.

I glanced to Josie and she was dead asleep with her mouth hung open ajar as she drooled onto the pillow - her snores consistent but quiet.

Piett sure is a lucky man..

Not wanting to disturb her for what could easily be Anakin's impatient nature, I slowly moved out from under the covers and placed my feet firmly on the floor.

The wooden boards underneath my steps creaked as I inched closer to the window, but I could still hear Josies snores - so I knew I hadn't woken her up with the piercing noise.

I reached the window and lifted it up, before poking my head out, only to be hit between the eyes with a hard pebble, "Ow!" I whisper shouted as I shot my hand to the space on my skin that began to throb.

"Oh shit, I'm sorry!" I heard the late night disturber and I immediately dropped my hand down to glare at his unwanted presence. The pain suddenly being the least of my problems.

"What the hell are you doing here Clovis?" I snapped in annoyance at my ex who was gazing up at me with his blue eyes - wearing the exact jacket I got him for his seventeenth birthday a few months ago.

He placed his hands in his pockets as he nervously shuffled his feet on the grass, "Can we talk?"

I shook my head, "No." I went to pull my head back in and slam the window shut, but his next words stopped me.

"I won't come again," He shouted quickly before I could close it, and I glanced over to make sure Josie hasn't woken up, "If you please just give me five minutes. I promise I'll leave you alone for good after tonight."

I stood there with with my hands on the window, debating on closing it and going back to bed. But the idea of him leaving me alone to live my life without the constant reminder of not being good enough, was tempting.

So I sighed heavily and stuck my head back out, "I'll meet you up front." I pulled myself back in and softly closed the window.

I folded my arms over my chest after closing my front door to keep myself warm from the cold night air, "You have five minutes and I already started counting." I addressed Clovis who was already on my porch and leaning on the wooden pilar by the short steps.
