Duke's ( pov )

Coming home early to my baby is the best feeling in the world. Her warm hugs, soft kisses and home cooked meal was all I ever needed when I came home. Sadly she didn't greet me at the door like she usually did and all the lights were off. I opened the door and entered slowly. This isn't like her, where's my beautiful girlfriend who usually greets me with a big smile spread across her face.

From the living area I could see the dim light come from our room. I walked quickly to the room to see her sitting Indian style on the bed stuffing her face with Chinese takeout. " is everything alright babe ? " I asked her shoving my hands into my pockets. She only looked at me for a quick second then focused back on the food.

Not only was she not paying me any attention but there was no more takeout food. She got up and brushed past me with the box in her hands. I took my suspenders off and she came and stood in front of me. " not tonight Duke, I'm not feeling too well.... so you'll have to look for something to eat tonight " she said fiddling with her fingers.

She's lying.

I just left it at that and went to take a shower not questioning her sudden attitude, she was already sleeping soundly when I got out. I put on some boxers then laid beside her wrapping my hands around her waist. She quickly moved away from me and laid on her back.
