His Shortcake

Chaoter twenty three ~Great sex Advice~

~Great sex advice~

I wake up before Maddox, so I get up and head out to the living room. "Wow you're up early." Grace says.

"Yeah." I mutter.

"Are you okay? You look like you've been crying all night." She frowns at me.

"It's nothing, well I think Maddox is mad at me. And I mean I guess I get it but he shouldn't be mad at me." I say.

"What happened?" She asks so I explain the whole situation to her.

"I mean I get why he is upset. You weren't going to tell him that you got a guys number. What else wouldn't you tell him?" She asks.

I remain quiet. "You know I wouldn't do anything like that. That's like him saying I'm my mother and that's probably the worst insult." I say.

"You know he has been cheated on to, so he has to have trust issues." She says.

We decode to go watch a movie. Maddox is the last one to get up and he looks angry. He joins us for the last of the movie. Everyone could sense the tension.

"Hey Tate, why don't you help me in the kitchen." Laura suggests.

I don't agree and just go with her. "Okay I'm getting some icy vibes out there." She says.

"Yeah that's because he is pissed at me Laura." I growl.

"I was for sure he'd be over it now." She frowns.

"Well he isn't and he thinks I'm my mother. So thanks for that." I storm away making sure to slam the bedroom door. I get dressed and walk outside. They were all to busy in another movie.

I didn't have keys so, I guess I was walking. It shouldn't take that long anyway.

<Maddox's>

I heard her in the bathroom. She was crying and my stupid ass pride wouldn't let me go comfort her. Laura comes back and everyone flinches when a door slams.

"Just so you know this is your fault." She says to me.

"My fault? Seriously?" I ask.

"Yes, she thinks you think she is like her mother which is the worse insult of all time."

"I never accused her of cheating." I frown, is that why she cried? She was nothing like her mother.

~~~

"Can you go get her for dinner?" Grace asks.

"Yeah." I get up and head to the bedroom. The room was empty so I assumed she was in the bathroom but she wasn't there either.

I pull my phone out and call her. It goes straight to voicemail. "Fuck." I groan. I walk back out to everyone looking at me expectantly.

"She isn't here." I say.

"Very funny Maddox." Maddie says.

"I don't get the joke." Fay frowns.

"You don't get it because it's not a joke. She isn't here." I say.

Immediately everyone starts searching the house. Of course they don't find her. "Why not call her?" Laura asks.

"Phones off." I mutter. "This is my fault for being a dick to her." I sigh.

"No it's my fault. I told her not to tell you." Laura says. I glare at her.

"Why the fuck would you tell her that?" I ask.

"Because, I figured if I told you, then afterwards you'd have great make up sex." She says.

That's why she asked for sex. I pinch the bridge of my nose trying to keep my composure. "I'll deal with you later. The love of my life is out there in negative below weather." I grab my keys.

"I'll come with." Maddie puts her jacket on. We drive slowly making sure to call out to her every so often.

"Don't worry we will find her." She says I think more to herself than me. Then I spot her, sitting on the side of the road. When I crouch in front of her, she had tear stained cheeks looking lost.

Her lips were starting to turn bluish purple color. "What are you doing shortcake?" I ask gently. She looks up at me and I try to hold my own damn tears in.

"I-I just wanted to leave so you could have your space." She was shaking from the cold.

"I don't want space from you." I pick her up putting her in the car. "You can drive right?" I ask Maddie. She nods getting into the driver side.

"You realize you could have been frozen to death." I say.

"I'm fine." She mutters. "It was peaceful." She adds as I hold her trying to warm her up.

When we reach the cabin I carry her to our room and lock the door so she can't leave again. I gently undress her and her skin is so cold.

"Are we going to have amazing sex now?" She mutter.

"Babe, you're half frozen. We aren't having sex." I sigh. "Also you should really stop listening to your friend about sex advice." I say.

"Yeah, she hasn't had sex in months." She says.

Once she is warmed up and I got her in dry warm clothes and tucked her in. I got to the kitchen to get her some food and a drink.

"How she doing?" Fay asks.

"Warmed up finally, just came to get her some food and a drink." I grab two plates of food and two drinks and go back to the room.

I get her to eat some and drink a little before she falls asleep. I clean up and lay down pulling her into my arms.
