Just add water

"Goodnight baby" he says

"Night" I say back and sleep into a deep sleep.

I wake up and check my phone. 9:00 not too bad. I relize Mason ins't next to me, but I hear him. he's on the phone in the living room. "Yeah I know, babe, I'll tell her later, ok i love you."

First thing that comes to mind: Who the fuck was he talking to?!

It sounds like he's making his way back and I close my eyes to make it look like I heard nothing.

I roll over. "Morning Babe." I put an emphasis on the word babe. "Hey." "So..." I start "Hmm?" "Who was on the phone?" His eyes go wide. "Oh yeah I was talking to my mom. She called, asked how we were, all that jazz." He puts his jazz hands up in emphasis. "You call your mom 'Babe'?" I raise an eyebrow. "Yeah..." he looks unconfortable. "I'm gonna ask again Mason. Who was on the phone?" My voice is stern. "I told you, my mom!" He whimpers. "Okay, give me your phone, I wanna see your call history." I was now angry with him. "I'm not giving you my phone! Why can't you just trust me?!" "Because no normal 24 year old calls their mom Babe!" I yell. I get up. I glare at him. and I walk to the back porch making sure the door slams.
