I woke up late today as well with the regular back pain from sleeping on the sofa. Its been three months since our separation and I still haven't found it in me to sleep in our room on our bed.
The bed which smells like Liv, the bed on which we have spent countless nights lying down making jokes, holding hands, listening to music, kissing and giggling. I made my way to the bathroom to freshen up.
The days were longer without her. Normal mundane things were exhausting without seeing her face. Eating and sleeping were difficult, living was difficult without her here with me.
I searched for food in the fridge but there wasn't anything under the expiration date. I sighed and ordered a burger. I have been eat all the junk these days, I couldn't cook knowing Liv isn't here to eat it with me, make faces and complain how its all 'vegetables'.
I smiled as the memory flashed through my mind.
I have worked more in these 3 months than I have since I joined this company, I guess it helps me distract myself from the absence of Liv and also as soon as I complete the task, I get to go to Harry and submit him the hard drive, as he is the one who presents it to managers and the CEO.
Couple of times I caught a glimpse of Liv as she smiled at me. It made my heart clutch, her smile still had the same effect on me as it did when we first met, when I first got butterflies over her.
I sound so gay right now but I am a little bit gay aren't I.
Little bit !? I had a freaking boyfriend !
And if constantly talking and appreciating Olivia makes me gay in stereotypes then I have no problem being the stereotypical gay.
As Nick Jonas's This is heaven played Liv crossed my mind once again. I decided to send it to Liv.
Sunrise, another long night lost in your eyes
So don't blink, you're the centre of my attention,
yeah know nothing is perfect,
but this is close So don't go,
keep it coming in my direction
If you told me that my fate was on your fingertips*
Its almost lunchtime now, my task is almost done but I am exhausted now. Within seconds of me closing my laptop and lying on the sofa, the doorbell rang. I groaned, volumed down the music and received the door.
It was May, my face lightened up seeing the box of pizza in her hand.
We sat eating the pizza while May told me all about her day and that the dog they had rescued couple of days ago was named BUCK by Liv. I smiled on hearing the name and her eyebrows rose in question.
Then I had to explain to it to her.
"Buck was short for Bucky and he is a character from Avengers, Liv doesn't follow the whole fandom but she is a sucker for Sebastian Stan, who plays the character."
"Is Sebastian the one in Monday?"
"Yup."
"He isn't that good though."My eyebrows shot up and my jaw dropped in shock at her words.
"Are you fucking kidding me. He is so handsome and sexy. His face structure is so perfect and his expressions are just—."
May burst into laughter, catching her breath told me to continue the 'Preachment of the Sebastian Stan religion'.
I pouted at her picking up a slice of pizza and looking away from her.
"I am sorry James, but its just so much fun bringing your Gay side out."
"I am not kidding bit the way you get all defensive is so cute. Obviously Sebastian Stan is great."She paused for a second while I tried to ignore her but then she mimicked me saying, " his face structure is perfect" in a goofy voice which made me laugh and choke on the pizza. She rushed to the kitchen to fetch me a glass of water and helped me shallow the pizza. Then once again we laughed and this time there were tears.
I asked her to promise that she wouldn't say a word of this, to which she shockingly agreed.
Its been 4 hours since May went home, I was working on my incomplete task listening to Charlie Puth, this man has a angel's voice for real.
I'll be there to save the day
Superman got nothing on me
I'm only one call away
Come along with me and don't be scared
I just wanna set you freeWhen my phone buzzed, it was a text from Liv saying she wanted to join the 'Sebastian Stan religion'.
I KNEW IT.
I cursed (lovingly) May and replied Liv with the clown emoticons.
To which she sent a video of Harry laughing and rolling down the couch with the caption, 'the face structure'.
DAMN
YOU
MAY
