Different.
I woke up that morning feeling extremely different. A strange feeling in the pit of my stomach. Was it a good different? Bad?
Fuck, I don't know.
I groggily lifted my phone off the nightstand and peeked at the lockscreen, which read 8:44 a.m. I didn't have work so I contemplated rolling over and sleeping for another while before deciding against it. I swung my bare legs out of bed and shivered at the contact with the crisp morning air. I pulled back the curtain to reveal a typical winters morning. The sky, a dark grey with even darker clouds dotted. Blankets of white frost glistened across the top of buildings beneath, above and level from my window. A small smile creeped onto my face when I the aroma of sausages and bacon reached my nostrills, coming from the kitchen,
Then, I was a little more excited to be leaving my bedroom.
I slipped on my shorts and sauntered my way out of my bedroom. As I made my way to the kitchen, I knocked my leg off of the table in the hallway.
"Motherfucker!" I howled, holding onto my shin. A low rumble of laughter echoed the walls making my stomach weak.
"Be careful babe, we don't want a trip to A&E" I heard him scold in that accent I yearn to hear every morning.
"I'll be more careful I promise" I pouted, taking a seat at the breakfast bar. I watched him for a moment. Marvelled at how he was mine and why he loved someone like me. I watched his muscles flex as he prepared the meal. I watched his pink lips curve into a smile. And I watched his beautiful eyes meet mine as he smirked, turning down the heat on the cooker.
I blushed at the thought of being caught out staring, although I knew it didn't even matter at this stage. I mean, he's my boyfriend why should it? He's seen me at my worst and at my best. The redness in my cheeks didn't die down though, they only grew as he giggled.
"You always stare, Aimi" He mused, turning around to reach for two plates. I watched his back as he extended his arm upwards to get the plates, my mouth watering at the sight.
Or maybe it was watering at the food. We will never know.
"I observe" I finally spoke, correcting him. He rolled his eyes, placing the frying pan in the sink. "Don't roll your eyes at me!" He rolled his eyes continuously as I stood in front of him leaning on my hip, arms folded across my chest. Finally he noticed the grimace on my face and burst into laughter, walking closer to me with his arms open.
"I'm sorry" He said between laughs, pulling me by my waist. My heart beat faster just at his touch and my heart quickened. I felt his lips press against my neck and I tilted my head, gasping slightly. My eyes wandered to the delicious variety of food laying on the counter and despite one of the hottest guys I've ever met was kissing my neck, I immediately got distracted.
"Can we eat?"
The vibrations of his laugh rumbled against my neck making it tickle. "As you wish" He replied in posh accent. I giggled and took a seat at the breakfast bar watching him prepare the meal onto plates. He served me up my plate and took a seat opposite me.
"What date is today?" I asked out of the blue.
Ever since I woke up that morning I felt as if I was missing something. Like something important. But I couldn't put my finger on it.
"Twenty eighth of January"
The happy buzz I was on prior completely went out and it was replaced with a rather empty feeling. Completely numb feeling.
He watched me with confusion as I set down my fork, a frown tugging at my lips.
"Hey what's wrong?" He asked, holding onto my hand.
"Five years. They go quick you know, it's weird that it just ended like that and he still won't speak to me, even if it's just being friendly. It hurts me" I pouted.
"Aw shit, Aimi I forgot. I'm sorry. I'm sorry it didn't work out between you two but hey! If you two didn't end then I wouldn't have gotten to be with you" He smiled, stepping out of his seat to pull up my chin.
"I know we didn't last very long and I'm probably being silly but Cain mean't a lot to me. He was such a good friend too. God why am I complaining? I've got one of the hottest band members ever, willingly going out with me and living in an apartment with me and eating breakfast with me. And I love him so much I don't know where I'd be without him" I mumbled. He grinned, placing his lips against mine.
"I love you so so much Aimi Reynolds"
"I love you more Michael Clifford"
