I look down at my phone and I see a text from my best friend, Andy. "Hey, you wanna hang out and maybe go to the park?? 😊" It reads. I sigh and reply back. "No, got plans with the hubby tonight..😁 sorry boo." "It's fine, have fun, but not too much 😋" I giggle at his last text and put my phone up. Andy is so sweet and dorky. It's adorable! I grab my bag and head out the door, waiting for my hubby to come home from work and pick me up. I wait and wait, but he doesn't arrive. I start to get worried and I pull out my phone to check the time. 7:45..He said he would be off at 7:00. Then I get a call. "Hey babe, where are you?!" I ask. "Ugh sorry babe..I have to work over again." He sighs over the phone. I frown. "Again? It's the 4th time this week!" He sighs. "I know, sorry Dani." He then hangs up. I slump down onto the stairs and go to my messages. "Hey..Derek cancelled again 😐 he has to work over. So I'll take you up on that park offer 😋." I text to Andy. He replies immediately with "See ya in 5 👌🏻" Andy and I are best friends, but my big brother, Patrick, doesn't really approve of it. I guess it has something to do with the fact I'm 19 and Andy is 36 and they're in the same band and stuff, but hey Pat is too overprotective of me anyways. I know Andy wouldn't do anything. I hear the rumble of a motor, and in pulls Andy. I smile and hop in the car. "Well, you look mighty fine tonight." Andy smiles, eyeing my red dress and heels. I smile. "Thanks boo." We decide to go eat at this small diner near the park. On the way there, we rock out to Disturbed. Andy pulls in to the parking lot. I smile, looking at the people eating outside under the umbrellas. When I get to the last one, I gasp. There is Derek, sitting with a blonde girl, who is giggling and sipping on a milkshake. Tears fill my eyes as I storm up to him. "Dani!" Andy calls after me, trying to stop me. I jerk my wedding ring off and slam it on their table. He looks up at me. "Oh uh, hey Dani!" "Don't hey Dani me motherfucker! How could you let this bitch get between us?!" The girl gasps and stands up. "I am not a bitch! I mean, have you seen your whore self lately?!" Andy comes over and jerks Derek out of the seat. "You are never allowed to talk to her again. Move out by tonight." "Oh who are you, her new boyfriend?" He smirks. Andy's face fills with rage as he punches Derek in the face and the stomach, making him fall, his nose bloody. He then turns to the girl. "And she is not a whore. Last time I checked, you're the one who tried to hook up with Pete two weeks ago at our concert." He takes my hand and leads me back to the car. He helps me in and then he speeds angrily out of the parking lot.

He takes me back to his apartment and pulls me into his arms. I burst out in tears. "Why Andy? Why am I not good enough?" He frowns, running his fingers through my hair. "You are more than good enough. He's just a major jerk off." I sniffle and look up at him. He smiles down at me, causing me to smile back. I then bite my lip. His shirt is soaking wet with tears. "Uh sorry.." I look down. He laughs and gives me a kiss on the cheek. Wow..unexpected much? I blink at him and then awkwardly giggle. "You can stay at my place if you want for a while. I'll sleep on the couch." I smile. "Thanks Andy, but how would Patrick feel about that?" He laughs. "He'd probably kill me, but who says he has to know?" We both burst out laughing as I head to his bedroom. He follows me in there, opening a drawer and handing me a long shirt to sleep in. I climb into his extremely comfy bed and look up at him with a pouty face. "What cutie?" He giggles. "I want my teddy bear!" I whine. He fake sighs. "Fineee." He hops onto the bed. He rolls over and wraps his arms around me. "Better?" He asks. I smile. "Much better." I then fall asleep in his arms.
