Beauty Behind The Madness

Echoes of Silence

(unedited)

Valerie:

When i woke up i was hot and sweaty, getting out of bed i took my hoodie off and went downstairs to turn the air on. Walking back into my room i sat down in my bean bag chair and scrolled on my phone while Abel slept. Looking at my messages i had a few from Jacob, a few from Mia and a few from Aubrey. I opened Aubrey's messages first

"you coming over today?" "i miss you"

"yeah i'll be over in a few hours"

Looking at Abel he rolled over into my spot and started to wake up, he looked around for me and when he found me he smiled.

"good morning baby"

Abel:

"good morning" I said yawning

"come back to bed i'm still tired"

Valerie:

"i'll sit with you but i can't go back to sleep i'm already up"

I got in bed next to him and scrolled through my phone while he went back to sleep. A few hours later i got a text from Audrey asking if i was still coming over, i told him that i was busy but i would still make it.

Abel:

Waking up again i felt Valerie softly playing with my hair while scrolling on her phone, i set my hand on her thigh and squeezed it.

Valerie:

"i ordered breakfast it's about to be here so get your ass up"

Kissing him i got out of bed and went to use the bathroom, afterwards i met Abel downstairs and sat at the table.

"it says it was delivered lemme go grab it"

I got the food and brought it to the table.

"i didn't know what to get so i got some of everything, here's some waffles, eggs i think? yeah it's eggs, bacon and sausage, hash browns, and some purple grapes"

Abel:

"baby there's no way we're eating this all"

Valerie:

"that's why i have a fridge, leftovers at the best"

I grabbed us plates and sat down to eat, after a hour of eating and talking he helped me put away the food then we said our goodbyes.

"i'll see you in a few days, I love you"

Abel:

"I love you more, and i'll miss you more"

I leaned down and kissed her.

Valerie:

"not true, i'll miss you more than you could imagine"

I kissed him and walked him out.

Abel:

"and turn your location on" I said smiling

Valerie:

"okay, I love you and be safe!"

He got in the backseat of his drivers car and left. Fuck. how was i going to go to Aubrey's if he wanted my location to be on. I grabbed my purse and drove next door to Mia's house, unlocking her door i went in and seen her sitting on the couch.

"Mia i need a favor"

"what's up?"

"okay so you know how i'm like kind of involved with drake, so i was about to go over to his house but Abel told me to turn my location on and i know he knows where drake lives so if he sees i'm over there he's going to lose his shit"
