I was waiting for my boyfriend Mike to get home. He does this a lot. Goes out in the morning and doesn't come back for a while. It was because of his job. He walked through the door and I got up.
"You should know not to wait for me."
"I know, but I do." He smiled and kissed me.
"I love you, Tony Turtle."
"I love you too, Mikey." I replied. "So, how was work?"
"Long." He replied.
"Hungry?" He nodded and I went to the kitchen. I warned some dinner up and Mike came in.
"I have the next two days off so we can spend them together."
"Finally. I haven't seen you for more than an hour in months."
"I know. I got offered a job. Pays amazing. I can work from home. Days are short. Only two a week and then the rest from home. I know the boss. We're friends."
"Are you gonna take it?"
"I think so. I wanna spend more time on you." He hugged me and I smiled.
"I think you should. I miss you. A lot."
"I miss you, too." He kissed me again and I smiled, moving my lips with his. "I'll call her."
"But it's midnight."
"She offered it to me two hours ago and she said the first one to call back. So." He called her. "Hey, Terra. I want the job...yes I talked to Tony about it." I put my arms around his waist and he wrapped his arm around my shoulder. "He's right here. Thank you so much Terra. I'll see you next week."
"You got it?!" He hung up.
"Yeah." He kissed me quickly and then called his work. "Hey this is Mike Fuentes and I quit." He hung up. "It feels so good to do that."
"I'm glad I can have you back now."
"You never have to wait for me again."
"Except when you go out with your friends."
"Yeah. I don't know why you don't come with me."
"Because you need time with your friends. We've been together for five years and I trust you not so do anything stupid." I replied.
He started eating food and I leaned on him. "Tired?"
"Yeah." I whispered.
"Go to bed." He replied.
"I don't like going to sleep without you."
"Baby, you need to rest. You got up at five am because of me."
"I know, but I can wait. You worked for like nineteen hours." He finished his dinner and picked me up. I squealed. "Put me down. I can walk."
"It's fine baby." He replied. Mike carried me upstairs and laid me down. I took my pants and shirt off. He laid down beside me after undressing and put his arms around me. "I love you."
"I love you, too." He put his head in my neck and fell asleep. I soon followed.

I woke up before Mike. I turned and saw him sleeping peacefully. He had really bad bags under his eyes from lack of sleep. I kissed his forehead and he pulled me closer, groaning a bit. I messed with his hair and his eyes fluttered open.
"Mm. Morning, angel." He whispered.
"Morning, love." I pecked his lips and he did the same for me. He got up and stretched. He went to the bathroom and brushed his teeth. I got up and followed.
