I fell asleep on Jonathan's couch last night.

We stayed up watching movies, talking- getting to know each other, and we had a few drinks. Nothing happened though, he was a perfect gentleman.

When When I woke up, he was sitting on a rocking chair watching TV. The smell of cinnamon rolls and coffee surprised me, he bought them for me.

The coffee was from the coffee shop he reconedmended for me yesterday morning. It was absolutely delicious. I ate one cinmain roll, it tasted like the one Carter had, I took a bite.

Carter kept calling me like I was going to answer, he such a dick. I needed space, he can't even resoect that. He cheated on me, I want to be left alone.

He texted me a bunch too. Said, "I told you I was sorry, I know you don't believe that I mean it."

Honestly, he probably said all of that just so I would come back and stay with him. He doesn't like conflict, which is why I am always the one distracting or causing things when we are on a run.

The entity will bring us back together at some point, it is always game for heated arguments though. Always causing arguments and fights between us, it likes the pain it causes us and other people.

Carter fears he will lose me one day and I will never come back whether the entity allows it or not. He does everything he can to keep me here with him.

Until now, I guess.

I've been walking around outside for a while before I have to go back. He awaits my arrival and probably will be very pissed when he finds out where I have been hiding. He has no right to be mad, he will feel entitled to be.

We didn't do anything other than watch TV and sleep, so he can kiss my ass.

As I am about to turn around and walk back down the sidewalk, I come across a flower shop. There is a small yellow sunflower on the outside that lights up.

The sign says, 'open,' so I open the door and walk in. It is a quiet atmisphore that smells amazing. The quiet blush of yellows, blue, pinks, and matte colors illuminate the walls of the small enclosure.

I set of different color roses sit up un a stand near the left wall. Lilies, and tulips follow suit around the store with flowers I have never seen or heard of.

A dragging sound on the floor grabs my attention by the counter in the middle if the front part of the store. I see a petite brunette with pink highlights opening up a box which is on the floor.

She takes out gold and silver ribbons, stands up, and places them on the counter. With blowing the hair out of her eyes, she stops and notices me.

"Hi, welcome," her bright smile warms my insides.

She seems genuine, "what can I help you with today?"

"Oh, nothing."

I aimlessly walk around the counter looking at all of the different assortment, "I am just looking."

"Alright," she says.

"If you need anything or have any questions, just let me know," the brunette goes back to assorting the ribbons she took out of the box.
