Skinny Lovers

Welcome Home

My name is Sam.  Sam Austin. I'm a freshman in college. St. Vincent University. It's not really my ideal college but whatever. 

Anyway, its Spring Break and I'm going to visit my Dad back in Trenton NJ. I haven't seen him in a while. I'm looking forward to relaxing with my loved ones. he told me he had a surprise waiting for me.

I plug my ear buds in and start a playlist. I've got a few hours until the train reaches its destination. With all the anxiety in my body, I'm suprised when I'm incased in a deep slumber.

-----------------------------------

I walk off the train, making my way to the exit. Once I step out I see my Dad waiting with a big sign that has my name on it. I don't hesitate before I'm hopping into his arms. His oh so familiar scent floods my nostrils and comforts me. I look back on all the times that I had him right in front of me when I was growing up. It makes me realise how much I've really missed him. It's my dads vioce that breaks through,  snapping me out of my thoughts.  "So how's college been Sammy?"  he says while grabbing my bags. I love when my dad calls me Sammy. It reminds me that no matter what ill always be his little girl.

"Um...good I guess. I have no complaints so..." he didn't look satisfied with my response, but he seemed to brush it off. He's not a melding parent. I glance at him to see his thick eyebrows furrowed up. I hate making my dad worry. "You know I'd tell you if something was wrong right? " I assure him. He nods his head and keeps his eyes on the road.

Before I got the chance to go into our house, dad stopped me, telling me to put the garbage cans from the curb away. What a great way to welcome your daughter home I thought to myself.

When I finished with the cans I made my way into the house.  I was confused when I saw that the lights were all off. that was until they switched back on. Before I could realize what was going on, a crowd of people jumped up yelling "SUPRISE" I stumbked back, as I almost had a falling out.

Every one I knew from home was there. wait I'm wrong.  Someone was missing. Xander.  Where is he. I mean he text me saying he'd be over tonight.  Am I wrong to assume this is what he meant.

I walk up behind my dad tapping his shoulder. "Hey dad have you seen Xander anywhere?"

"No I'm sorry Sammy but I haven't" he's hiding something.  I can tell because he avoided eye contact.

I was really looking forward to spending time with him.  We've been best friends since I got hit on the side of my face in second grade. The boy who did it started to laugh so Xander pushed him.  We've been inseparable since.

I go upstairs to my room.  I figure, they won't miss me if I just go to change my clothes. When I open my bedroom door I see a him casually laying on my bed. I don't hesitate a second before I jump right on top of him. I think he was sleeping because he stirred a little before looking up at me. He sits up with me straddling his waist. I wrap my arms around his neck while his loop around my waist.

While we were in this position,  I noticed how much I missed  human contact. I mean being away at college with barely any friends deprives you if human contact. I took in his scent. He smelled like the cologne I got him for his birthday. I squeeze him tighter as if he'd run away if I didn't.  He seemed to notice this and pulled back. "What's wrong?" he questioned. 

"Nothing. Just thinking is all." he looks at me as if he isn't buying it. "I just miss being home no big deal." I shrug my shoulders.

He knows there's more to it but he doesn't bug me about it. I'm glad. I want to have fun with the two weeks we have not play Dr. Phil.
