i wake up to the sun in my eyes, i squint sitting up. i turn to see my phone still on the facetime call with vinnie from last night

i smile and can see his hair in the corner of the screen

do i wait until he wakes up? should i end the call? i've never intentionally slept on facetime with a guy nor did i mean to fall asleep last night

i come to the decision to stay on the call but i mute myself to avoid waking him up, i leave my phone in my room while i go downstairs to say hi to my mom

i notice a sticky note on the fridge, i walk over to it to read

"hi sweetie i won't be home until friday when jett arrives. he mentioned vinnie is tagging along finally i get to meet him! i didn't want to wake u this morning i feel like u needed the sleep. i went shopping early this morning so the cupboards and fridge are stocked up. i love u honey "

i let out a groan

she always fucking leaves

i wonder what it was for this time. probably another guy offering to take her somewhere

i put some toast in the toaster and while it's cooking i run upstairs to grab my phone hoping vinnie woke up

to my disappointment he was still sleeping when i grabbed my phone. i went back downstairs and put peanut butter and banana slices on my toast

i head into the living room surrounding myself with blankets and turning on a show

i scroll through social media until i hear a yawn from vinnie

finally

i return to the call since i was on paused and see and very tired vinnie move into frame

"goodmorning beautiful" he smiles

that morning voice does shit to me

"morning vin" i can feel myself blushing

"i fly out in 2 days" he says grinning

"what time is the flight?" i ask

"7:00am. at least it's sorta early" he says

"god i cant wait" i sigh "i have the house to myself because of course my mom left"

"oh yeah i remember jett saying something about how ur always alone" speaks

"what did jett tell u.. about our home life?" i ask genuinely curious how much he knows

"everything." he answers

"oh"

"yeah, i'm sorry for what u guys had to go through" he says a little quieter than before

"meh, that was years ago. the only thing that still continues is my mom leaving but it's whatever i'm used to it"

it sounds like i'm trying to make him feel bad. i'm not

"that shit sucks though" vinnie replied

"what are ur plans for today" i question in attempt to switch the subject
