Dean is Here

Thursday December 17

T: I'm home now, you can come over, I'll be in my room.

Well it was about time.

Deanie: I will be right over, I'm going to go ahead and get what you need before coming over so it's nice and warm for you.

That's what I did. I went ahead and got everything that she needed and I got a cab and to her house. I was so happy to see her. I have been waiting for so long to see her and talk to her. The cab pulled up in front of her house, I paid him, grabbed everything that I had and got out. I walked up her driveway and to the front door. I rang the doorbell and all I had to do was wait for someone to open the door and I was hoping that would be real quick. I looked through the little window and noticed her mom come walking over to the door. She opened it and smiled at me.

"Well hello Dean. She is up in her room. I'm not sure if she is sleeping or not. So be very quiet." she said and I nodded my head.

"Hello Mrs. Swindell. Okay I will do that. I wouldn't want to wake her anyways. I know what it's like when you do wake her up." I said and she smiled.

"I think we all noticed and learned from it." she said and I chuckled. I walked over to the stairs and walked up and to her room. I opened up the door and looked in. She turned her head in my direction and smiled at me. I was so happy that she wasn't asleep either. I didn't want to wake her but also I wanted her to be awake so she could see me sooner.

"It's about time you got here." she said with a smile on her face but of course I smiled back to her.

"Yeah I know. I didn't want to get the stuff you wanted before you got home because I wanted it to be at least a little warm for you when I got here." I said and she smiled.

"Awe how nice are you. Thank you by the way. I appreciate it." she said and I smiled.

"No problem. I'd do anything for you." I told her and she smiled. I gave her the food she wanted and she put the food around her. I walked over to the chair she had by her window and she looked at me.

"What are you doing over there for?" she asked me.

"I thought maybe you would want me over here instead of sitting in the bed with you." I told her and she shook her head. She patted the spot beside her so i got up and walked over and sat down.

"All you had to do was ask." she said and I smiled.

"I'll remember that. Did I do good?" I asked her and she nodded her head. She grabbed the Chinese food and put the rest on the table beside her bed. "Is this what you have been doing since you have been sick?" I asked her and she looked over at me.

"Stay up here in my room, watch TV, sleep, yes yes I do." she said and I chuckled.

Tinsley POV

This was good. I was actually happy that Dean was here. I was definitely unsure on him coming here or being around me but I came around and I was so glad and happy that I decided to let him and let it happen.

"Well you know it must be nice to just lay around and do what you have been doing." He said and I smiled and chuckled.

"Okay yes it is but I'd rather be up and doing something instead of just laying here and sleeping and watching TV the whole entire time." he nodded his head.

"Well now I'm here and you can do all of that stuff together." I smiled. He was about ready to talk but his phone went off. He was going to answer the text but his phone went off with getting a call. He ignored it whenever he saw who the contact was. I personally didn't know who the person was but all I knew was the whole fact that he didn't look to pleased to see the name. Now it was really making me wonder who it was and why he wasn't pleased with it. I was going to ask but kept to myself because that's none of my business. If he wants me to know, he would tell me. There was no sense in asking who it was. "Sorry about that, no one important anyways." he said and I nodded my head like I understood, I mean I did and I wanted to make sure he knew that too.

"Ah it's okay. I understand. We all have people who call us who we don't want to talk to." I said but I was mentally smacking myself in the head from it. Why did I just say that? Okay, now this is getting weird and I'm getting weird but oh well. I am weird and I am pretty good at putting people into weird situations.

A couple hours later, I woke up even though I didn't think I fell asleep and I looked over beside me and noticed that Dean wasn't there anymore. My bathroom door was wide open so he couldn't be in there, he wasn't on the floor either. I got up out of bed and started walking downstairs.

"Mom is Dean down here?" I asked and she came walking over to the stairs where I was standing at.

"No honey, he isn't. He left about an hour ago. Why what's going on?" She asked me and I looked and felt really confused.

"I didn't even know he left. I just woke up. Last time I remember we both fell asleep. I never felt him move beside me either. Why would he just leave like that?" She shrugged her shoulders.

"I'm not sure sweetie. Maybe he had to be somewhere." She suggested and I nodded my head.

"Yeah maybe you're right. Who knows. I'm gonna go back upstairs. It's a lot warmer up there." She nodded her head. I turned around and started walking upstairs. I walked back to my room and laid back down in bed. I grabbed my phone and there was nothing on it. I thought maybe he would text me to let me know what's going on but he didn't. I wonder why he left. It's going to bug me so much. I can't believe that he left.
