2K READS IN 3 DAYS? WTF? THANK YOU SM

I wake up to the obnoxious sound of the phone ringing.

I groan and slam my hand on the bed, hoping it would eventually stop. But it didn't.

I sigh and quickly step out of the bed, opening the door and walking to the kitchen. The phone got louder as I got closer.

I angrily take the phone off the wall and put it to my ear. "Hello?"

"This is.. Willow right?" Henry spoke on the other line.

"Oh, hi Henry. Everything okay?" I calmed down.

"Yes. Well, er- no. Is William there?" Henry asked.

I turned around and looked into the living room, where William had fallen off the couch and had been sleeping on the floor. I furrow my eyebrows.

"Yeah, he is. What's up?" I ask.

"Can you ask him to come to the restaurant? There's been a.. mishap." Henry sighed.

"Oh, yes of course Henry. He'll be there soon." I told him, confused.

"Great. Tell him I'll see him soon." Henry ended the call.

I slammed the phone back into the wall and walked into the living room.

William had been snoring, like always. Maggie was asleep on the couch with no blankets.

William must've took them off her. The heat was off all night.

I kneel down to William and began shaking him. "What did you do."

William simply furrowed his eyebrows, so I shook harder. "William!"

"Hey, hey! Stop shaking me!" William flipped his head.

"William, what did you do." I took my hands off of him.

"Nothing! I was asleep!" he kept his eyebrows furrowed and eyes closed.

"Henry wants you at the restaurant." I said.

William opened his eyes and looked at me. "Why?"

"There's been a 'mishap'." I finger quoted.

"Did he say what it was?" William sat up.

I shook my head as William sighed. He placed his hand on his head and sighed again as he stood up and walked to the bathroom.

I sat against the couch on the floor.

What the hell did he do this time? And here I was hoping Henry would never find out about his actions.

"I didn't do anything!" William yelled from the bathroom.

I rolled my eyes.

William came out of the bathroom and simply stood at the doorway, looking at me with his eyes heavy.

"Yes?" I looked at him.

"You look funny." He pointed at me.

"What do you mean? Why?" I asked.

"You've got.. black stuff around your eyes." he motioned his hand.

I nodded. "Oh. I slept in makeup."

William took a deep breath. "Alright."

He walked over to the island and grabbed his keys, walking to the front door. "I guess I'll see you later then. What are you gonna do today?"
