Not What I Want, But What I Need

Chapter 8:Jealous?

I awoke with a throbbing headache. Maybe I should get used to these by now. My body felt cold and i reached around the bed. Empty. I sat up holding my head as it felt like popcorn popping in a microwave. I looked at the bed and started to actually think, where am I? Memories of last night started to flash through my mind. Richard, the restraint, the wine, the kissing, he kicked me out, and Shane. Shane! I was at Shanes house, er apartment!..in his bed. Oh yeah, I snuck into it..but I was drunk! Or at least I mostly was. I felt a bit of pain in my chest, i put my hand above it and realized. My necklace. It's gone! i started ripping off the covers of the bad and shaking them out. Maybe the chain broke in it's somewhere on the bed. I threw of the pillows and tore off the sheet. Where is it!? I kicked the blankets over and began searching the ground. i found my clothes shook them out and put them aside to continue my search.

I shook my self out as if it was possible that my necklace would be hiding in the little amount of clothing I was wearing. Little amount of clothing, in Shane's apartment, in his bed. I slid down to the floor and laid on the floor, he had soft carpet that smelt like him, its like he marks his territory with his intense and amazing scent. Earth to Mia! But I just kept thinking about how close we were last night and our conversation, it was so light and playful, it had helped me to forget about Richard. That jackass, Richard. I decided to focus on the important topic, my necklace. I sat up and looked at the door way to see Shane leaning against the door staring at me intently, a confused look plastered on his face. He was in plain jeans and I black T-shirt.

"Um are you OK?" I groaned, and threw my face into a near by pillow.

"Noooo!" I said with my face still in the pillow. He kneeled down by me.

"What's wrong?" I could hear the concern in his voice but there was a hint of amusement. I sat up and looked at him my hair thrashed and in front of my face i pushed it all back and he smiled at me.

"I lost my necklace.." He laughed and I frowned at him. "How is that funny?"

"It's just that I wish I would've given you this before you thrashed my room " he dug into his pocket and pulled out my necklace dangling it in front of my face. I smiled, grabbed it and tackled him into a hug and then I hit his arm.

"Wait why did you have this?"

"You left it in the bathroom and I didn't want it to fall into the sink or something" he scratched the back of his neck a blush rising on his cheeks I realized we were still on the ground how I tackled him. I jumped up mumbling a thank you.

He got up and started fixing the blankets and pillows. I didn't know what to do so I gathered my clothes from the ground and started towards the door. "Do you want something else to wear?" i looked down at my minimal amount of clothing and nodded. "You can take a shower first if you want" Thank goodness! 

"Ok! Thank You Shane, you are such a great guy you've done so much for me in just the past week! I have a feeling were going to become the best of friends" he laughed awkwardly He went to his closet and pulled out a towel for me, he also handed me a brush which was surprising. "Why do you have a brush?" he was confused but then understood my question.

"Oh! It's my little sisters, she left it last time she came to visit." 

 "You have a sister?" i looked at him quizzically.

"Yeah she's about 8 years old oddly enough" Well there's another thing he doesn't match on my list.

6. He'll be an only child, so i won't be compared.

Not like i'd consider Shane anymore, 1 he hasn't matched a single thing on my list as of now and 2 It'd awkward being in a relationship with someone who's seen you throw up in a urinal. I took the brush and towel and headed towards the Bathroom. I locked the door and brushed my hair, the water temprature was a little on the cold side but thats how i liked my showers. I stripped off my clothes off and made way into the falling water. I let the water wash over me.
