I woke up to my body sore. I tried my best to get up but it hurt so much. I laid there looking at the ceiling thinking, still not being able to wrap my head over the fact that Nancy broke up with me last night. I gave up everything for her, my girlfriend, my best friend, my parents approval of me. I remember the first time my parents met Nancy.
-flashback-
I picked up Nancy from her place and drove back to mine. Nance was wearing a simple navy dress with silver jewelry. I got out and opened the door for Nance. I went in and my parents were in dinner table waiting for us. "Your late, Stephen" dad said in his gruff voice. "I'm sorry father it won't happen again. Mom Dad I'd like to introduce you to my girlfriend Nancy" I said to both of them, feeling intimidated by their stares. "Hello Mr. and Mrs. Harrington, it's a pleasure to meet both of you. Considering that you are very busy people" Nance greeted politely, but they were just staring. No one broke the silence until someone came out of the kitchen. "Food is done" (y/n) said sweetly holding a pot with chicken Alfredo and a salad. "Oh, thank you (y/n). You are such a sweetheart. What would we do with out you" mom said teasing a bit. "Oh, Mrs. Harrington it's nothing" she started but she was cut off "What do you mean you shouldn't have to cook for us grown folk" said dad, looking at her with loving eyes. At this point me an Nance had sat down at the table. (Y/n) took of the apron she had on, and was walking over to sit down until she saw Nancy. "I should get going" she started until again she was interrupted. "Nonsense, your staying for dinner" said father. "I wouldn't want to intrude and this seem of a 'get to know the girlfriend' type of dinner. So, I'd rather not make thing awkward" (y/n) explained. "Please you wouldn't be in intruding you made the dinner after all" mom plead with her. "No, I insit I wouldn't like to make Nancy uncomfortable and on the other hand I'd promise I'd take the kids to the arcade" I explained further, venom falling from her voice when she said Nancy, putting on her purse getting ready to walk out. She made her way to the door and walked out. "She is such a wonderful young lady and she's stunning to add to all her qualities" mother said, before taking a bite of her Alfredo. "She will make a great wife someday" father agreeing with mother. "She pretty, she take good care of kids, she can coo-" mom said before I did something "Mom Dad can we not talk about (y/n)" I interrupted. "This dinner is for Nancy not to name the qualities that (y/n) has" I stated quite angrily. "Do not interrupt your mother like that Stephen" Dad stated firmly. "Well I do apologize but last time I checked this dinner was for you to get to know Nance" I said slightly raising my voice. "Do not raise your voice at me, Stephen" Dad retaliated also raising his voice. "He has a point, honey. This dinner was for us to get to know Nancy. We do apologize Nancy for our behavior, but we think of (y/n) as our own daughter. After all she did look after our Stevie" Mom explained both of their actions. "Yes, Steve has mentioned it a couple of times" Nance politely said, before taking a bite if her food. "Oh, Nancy dear I don't think we caught your last name" Mom questioned. "Oh I'm sorry. Nancy, Nancy Wheeler" she said. "Oh, your Karen's other daughter. Karen use to always say that you would be the perfect one when both of you were little. I still think I'm right" Mom told us before taking another bite of her food. "I'm sorry, your still right about what" Nance said, well almost demand to know. "That (y/n) is the perfect one. Come on even a simpleton could of understood that one. Your standards are lowering, Stephen, don't let them hit the ground" Dad said strongly. "Dad how can you say that in front of her" I demanded "Well that because we believe in (y/n) ideology. 'It is better to talk bad about someone in front of them than behind them'" mother explained. "Either way it's better for Nancy to know her competition, if you could even call it that" Dad said taunting. "Well if I may be so bold. Steve dated (y/n) before me, and cheated on her with me" Nance remarked matter a factly. "Oh I see, your only picking up your sisters scraps" Mother asserted. "That's kind of stupid why would you pick a good for nothing, spoiled brat, like my Stephen" Dad concludes. "Thats enough. Me and Nance are leaving dinner was great but I'm tired of these snarky comments. Let's go" I demanded.

I looked over and saw a cup of water with Advil on the side. A note that read 'Morning sleepyhead, take the pills for your soreness and pain. Hey, don't beat yourself about what happened. It was my fault. Hope you feel better. Love Y/n and Tommy <3' I looked out the the window, to see the sun was going down. I walked down stair to make myself something. I ate went back to my room and fell asleep, again.
