Ring Ring

Hard drops of water hit (y/n)'s windows.

She sat down on her stool and studied her painting. Her sketch had been worked on but not perfected. Two people dancing, their souls intertwined but she hadn't painted the faces.

When Claire called her earlier that morning she said to do herself and Luke. As much as that idea would have worked in the past, it didn't resonate with her presently.

Her timer went off and she set her pencil down. It was 12 pm and her phone had no new text messages. Kristen and Kiko were going on a road trip, Marshall and Bo returned to San Francisco so it was just her and Luke in the house.

She grimaced at that thought and stepped into the kitchen. Rose had prepared her a grilled cheese with some chips and vegetables. (Y/n) ate her food and focused on every bite.

Tristan had nothing better to do in his house so he went for a run in the rain.

His heart rattled in his ears and his chest rose with every heavy breath he took. His hair covered his eyes and water dripped from his nose. He didn't listen to anything on this run like he usually would.

He thought of his fight with (y/n) and ways he could've gone about it differently. He thought about the essay he hasn't started. He thought about the Instagram story.

Should I tell her?

He ran faster and pushed himself harder. The thought of (y/n) made him nauseous and the look on her face when she finds out made him almost throw up.

He stopped running and hunched over. He tilted his head back and let the water wash his face.

I should call her and tell her about Luke.

Tristan shook his head like it was a silly idea and ran back to his house.

"Did you go for a run in the rain?" Meredith asked. "You're actually stupid."

"Shut up." He panted and opened the fridge. He poured himself some water, chugged it, and poured himself another glass.

"Mom isn't going to be happy when she finds out you ran in the rain and got some rain disease."

"Rain disease doesn't exist," Tristan responded.

"You're the rain disease." She shot back.

Tristan rolled his eyes instead of arguing back because his sister's logic made no sense. He took his glass of water upstairs and started taking a shower.

The warm water gave him goosebumps and he sighed. He scrubbed his Head and Shoulders into his hair and washed his body. He tried not to focus on (y/n) for too long but it's the one thing his mind returned to.

He thought of the look on her face when he said he forgot a towel. Her brown eyes went wide, her soft lips in a line, her face red with embarrassment.

She looked so cute.

If I wasn't disoriented maybe I would've told her and she wouldn't hate me right now.

He turned off the water and dried himself. He snatched a pink sweater from his closet and a pair of grey sweats and opened his computer.

"Someone's been working hard," Luke commented.

"How could you tell?" (Y/n) responded.

"I don't know. I just got the vibe." Luke nodded and took a chip from her plate. "Rough morning?"
