In the morning I woke to the sound of my phone ringing. Groaning, I opened my eyes to see it on the bedside table. Figuring Aaron must have put it there last night or I did subconsciously.
Swiping it up, I answered it.
"Hello?"
"Good morning Ms Luna."
I paled "Alec. Uh- hi." I sat up shaking my head at how wrong this situation was already. Here I was on the phone to one man, and laying beside another.
"Are you home? I tho-"
"No. No I'm not... I uh- I spent the night out."
Silence sounded before a hard sigh, "Aaron."
"Yeah.." I replied quietly.
"Well I guess that is something. No matter, I will call you later or see you at work."
"Ale-"
"Goodbye Ms Luna." He concluded hanging up before I could say bye.
I pulled the phone away from my ear as the call disconnected. Sighing quietly, I pushed my phone back onto the side when Aaron's lips touched neck.
"Hmm.. Good Morning." He grumbled.
"Morning, you sleep okay?" I asked laying back down with him.
"Yeah, I woke before I woke you. Which is good.." He trailed off.
"And how are you feeling? In yourself?"
He thought about it before smiling, "A whole lot better knowing you're here."
I smiled "You're cute. But seriously? You'll tell me won't you? Even if you think it's just a bad mood? I need to know, I don't want you dealing with this alone."
"I'll be fine, it's nothing to wor-"
"Depression isn't nothing Aaron." I replied sternly.
He sighed looking away "I know but I don't need you walking around on egg shells either, we'll fall apart before we've even got started otherwise."
"I just want to support you, in any way I can.."
He nodded and turned to face me "I know. Hey do you wanna do something today?"
"Like what?"
"Um... Skip town? Head out? You don't have work do you?"
I thought about it before shaking my head "No, no I don't. I swapped with Roxanne, a colleague. So yeah, let's do something."
"So.." He grinned "What would you like to do Ms Clarke?"

"Please?" I asked batting my lashes at Aaron as he took in the scene.
"Really?"
"Yeah why not? Don't be a spoil sport." I pouted.
"I suggested skipping town, I took you home to change, ready for this bid escape, and you wanna stay right in Vegas.. Bowling."
"Well you chose if you're gonna whine. You know we can do other things beside bowling."
He chuckled beside me making my eyes narrow "I love it when you get all pouty."
I squeaked in surprise as he spanked my backside as he passed. Throwing him a glare he grinned and headed to the counter to see if we could play.
