The next morning rolls by, – Jake woke up at his usual time of 8:00AM. He only got four hours of sleep.
Johnnie grunted and woke up as he felt the blankets shift and he looked over. Noticing Jake was getting out of bed.
He sees Jake's back as he is exiting the room quietly and closing the door with a soft thud.
Johnnie sits up and yawned, pulling the blanket off himself and got out of the bed too. He walked out of the bedroom and opened the door.
"Jake?" Johnnie called out. Jake was walking down the hallway, he turned his head. "Oh, sorry. Did I wake you? I always wake early"
"Oh uh– no, no it's alright. Remember that time you woke up at like– 7:30 when you used your smoothie machine?" Johnnie light-heartedly asked.
Jake laughed, "Oh yeah! That was funny, when was that? Last week?"
"Yeah," Johnnie nodded with a smile.
They make eye contact. Blue and brown clashing into each other as they looked at each other. There hearts suddenly sparked with a new feeling inside of their chests.
Jake however shifted his gaze away and cleared his throat, "I'm gonna get ready for my appointment. Again, sorry for waking you" he said and went to his own room.
Johnnie felt his smile fade. He knew Jake was still upset from last night. There was no doubt about that. He turned around and went to his own room, deciding that perhaps the punk needs space for a while.
It was around 10:45AM now, – and Jake was ready to go. He took a shower, got dressed, brushed his teeth and styled up his hair and then walked downstairs.
He slips his shoes on as he is sitting on the couch. A glum look in his face. Johnnie was also sitting on the couch and he looked over when he noticed Jake sit down next to him.
"You okay?" Johnnie asked. Jake sighed, "Yeah, I just want some answers honestly. I've been doing therapy for a year and I still feel like something is off or wrong with me."
Johnnie frowned. "Oh.. hey, maybe they'll figure it out today," he said positively. He wrapped an arm around Jake and squeezed him lightly.
Jake pulled away and nodded, "Maybe. I'll see you later." He mumbled as he yawned. Getting up and grabbing his phone and exiting the house with a soft shut of the front door.
Johnnie helplessly watched Jake leave with a frown on his face. He just wants Jake to accept himself more, and see how much Jake really is. How much he means to him.
Jake entered his Tesla and started the car. Placing his hands on the wheel as he exited the driveway. His heart felt heavy as he is driving away.
Johnnie watches from the window Jake leave for his therapy appointment, and all he could do is wish for Jake to get some answers.
That's all Jake wants,
Answers.
