1001 Love Stories Darker

Overdose (94)

Last night I think I overdosed. In an abandoned house that I had been squatting in. At the lowest I've ever been and today I woke up in bed with the first man I ever fell for.

He was asleep next to me, laying on the white sheets in the white room, bathed in light. He was still as handsome even though five years had passed. Gone was the last of the charming youth but he seemed mature into a stunningly handsome adult.

I stare at him wondering if this is what my version of the heaven is or maybe in my drug induced state I had broken in, But as I reach out to touch him he grabs me pulling me into his arm.

"Good morning love." He says smiling softly and I know this has to be a dream, and if it was I'd be ok w

"Jack." I whisper and he seems confused.

"What did I do now?" He asks sitting me up and and I just look at him.

"Am I dead?" I whisper and the smiles before rolling over on top of me.

"I hope not, if you were I'd have to become one of those necrophiles." He says kissing my neck and my heart begans to race letting me know I'm alive.

"Then what am I doing here?" I ask and he pulls away looking confused.

"Here, as, is?" He asks and I just get lost in those eyes and wonder if I should question my paradise.

"Here, with you?" I ask.

"We'll id like to think it's because you like me." He
Says and I still aren't so sure which causes him to look concerned.

"Creek? Are you, are we having problems?" He asks placing a hand on my cheek and I notice his wedding ring.

"Shit you're married!" I shout and he suddenly seems to get it.

"Oh are we roll playing, I thought you were serious!" He say slightly annoyed before turning back to me and I'm sure my look of confusion and fear hadn't changed so he looks even more worried.

"Creek, yeah I'm married, to you. Five years next September." He says and I audibly gasp.

"What!" I say looking at my hand and sure enough there's two rings.

"No we, I haven't seen you since Clare's!" I shout and he looks confused.

"Clare's, as in her gender reveal party a week ago?Creek Whats going on should I call someone?" He says putting a hand on my head.

"I, I." I begin to studder before his smile softens a bit and he pulls me into his chest.

"Love, please you're starting to worry me." He says and I say fuck it. It's not like I wanted to go back to pills in abandoned houses so I just hug him. Who am I to question a miracle.

"Yeah sorry I'm just crazy." I say and he only runs his hands up my back.

"Good. Because we're up and the kids aren't so I get to-"

"The kids?" I say and he drops his head in defeat.

"Fine we're going to the hospital." He says getting up and I grab him.

"No, that's, I was joking." I say hugging him by the waste.

He only grabs my face before pulling me up and kissing me deeply.

"Now, we're awake and the kids aren't so I get to-" I say sliding down his pants and he smiles.

"Be gentle with me." He says with a smile, his smile still driving me crazy. But suddenly there was a chime and a little screen next to the bed turns on showing a toddler tossing and turning.
