Ch. 73

[A/N: My phone is being an ass so I'm using a school computer. Sorry if this is late :3]

"If I sit here... If I just sit here... Do you think time will go faster?" I ask myself. Now that I'm done preoccupying myself, I feel the empty whiplash of Dans absence. I scroll through three days worth of Instagram and twitter. Dan doesn't look happy in them. I wonder if he feels homesick. Twitter is pretty uneventful, all is quiet on Facebook. I pull YouTube up on my phone, to tired and empty to grab my laptop, and put on the episodes I've been missing. I fall asleep most of the day, and have been ever sense I was done moving. When I'm awake I listen to Game Grumps and other YouTube videos. Which reminds me I haven't done something for my channel in forever. It's a little poetry channel where I read my poems online. Come to think of it, I haven't wrote a poem in a long while as well. It's to late to fix that so I just listen to the episodes in my own private vigil.

I finally go downstairs around dinner time, and find Lauren petting our cat, Misty, and watching TV.

"Hey, you don't look so good. Finally getting the loneliness?"

"Yea... Do me have any TV dinners in the freezer?"

"Yes but I was hoping we could go out tonight. We certainly can afford it. I was thinking something Mexican."

"I don't want to go out. You can if you want." I continue looking through the freezer.

"You haven't been out in a while come on. You can choose where we go." She pleads.

"Can't I just make a Mac and Cheese TV dinner and eat on my own?"

"No it's not healthy to sit in your room all day." Typical parental Lauren.

"Your acting like my dad when I was a teenager."

"I will if it means you get out." She threatens.

"Alright, geez." I concede, but only because I have a place in mind. "Is it ok if we go to La Gáre? It's a little Italian restaurant that has good soup." My moms side of the family would go there for the annual reunion. I would always order the same thing, Prawns Bordelaise. It's three large shrimp, cut butterfly style, and sautéed in a white whine sauce, with a hint of lemon. It's really great, and comes with that ever soup they made that day.

"Sounds fancy."

"A bit, I'll go get changed." I pad back to my room and change, not bothering to close the door, I don't really care if people see me naked and only Lauren is in the house. I pull my pants all the way up and grab my wallet. Most of the money I put in a bank account to earn interest as time goes on. The rest I split up and put on Lauren and I's credit cards. I think Lauren is going to use it for student loans debts.

I pull my pants up and walk back downstairs. "You ready?" Lauren asks.

"I guess." I shrug.

"I'll drive. Hop in." We get into her car and she googles directions to the restaurant, taking the route that passes by the pretty night lights. I watch them twinkle as we drive by, thinking about Dan of course.

We pull up to the restaurant and walk in.

"Oh my, (Y/N) look how big you are!" The person at the front desk greets me. I think her name is Carol. Like I said, every year family reunion. And this is a family run restaurant.

"Yea, just for two. It's nice to see you."

"Yes, right this way."

Lauren slips closer to me. "You didn't tell me you were known here." She whispers.

"Relax I come here at least once a year. It's family run, not mine of course, but yea."

"I'll bring out soup and salad for the both of you." Carol walks into the kitchen, leaving Lauren to figure out the menu, as I already know I'm getting Prawns Bordelaise.
