I answer the door.
"Hey, haven't seen you in a while." The delivery guy, Dave says. He's my regular guy, so we've sorta became friends over the years.
"Yeah, I went on vacation for like three months." He hands me the pizza box and tells me the price. I give him a $20. "You can keep the change."
"Thanks. So where'd you go?"
"I went on tour with my boyfriend and his band."
"Oh, cool." His face dropped. "Well I better get going, it was nice seeing you."
"You too." We say our goodbyes and he leaves. I shut the door and put the box on the table. Riker is just staring at me. "What?" I ask.
"You know him?" Riker asks.
"Sort of. He's the usual delivery guy, why?" I grab plates and put them on the counter.
"He seemed to be a little interested in a certain someone."
"Well even if he is, I'm interested in a different certain someone." I walk over to Riker and put my arms around his neck.
"Oh, and who's that?"
"Jensen Ackles." I say with all seriousness. "But he's married, so I have to settle for you." I joke.
"Nice." I let out a tiny giggle and give him a quick peck on the lips.
"I'm kidding. There's only one person in the world for me, and it's you."
"Better be."

We quit our joking, I grabbed myself a beer, along with a water for Riker out of the fridge, we get ourselves a slice of pizza, and sit on the couch. I had MTV on, which Ridiculousness was on, like always. I've seen every episode, and I mean every episode a good twenty times each, so I go On Demand, go onto HBO, and turn on Shaun of the Dead.

Throughout the movie, we ate, talked, and Riker stole my beer.
"You know, you could've gotten your own." I say getting up to get myself another.
"Nah, that involves getting up."
"Lazy. And you know you have to stay now, right?" I sit back down.
"I was planning on it." He puts an arm around me.
"Good." We both go silent and watch the rest of the movie.

Throughout the rest of the night, we finish Shaun of the Dead, watch Grown Ups 2, and drink. Both Riker and I haven't had a night like this in a while, and we both needed it, especially with all that we've been through within the past two months or so. Midnight came and went, and I was ready for bed.
"Alright, I'm about to ass out. You can do whatever you want, but I'm going to bed." I say standing up from the couch and stretching out my back. I walk over to the door, lock it, and turn off the front light.
"Seriously? It's only 1:34am."
"Exactly, I'm tired." I give Riker a kiss on the cheek. "Goodnight."
"Night."

I go into my bedroom, grab a pair of sweatpants, and head into the bathroom. I change out of my jeans and into the sweats, and wash my face. When I exit, Riker is laying on my bed.
"Yes, because I said you're allowed to sleep in here." I say taking off my jewelry and putting it on my dresser.
"Hey, you never had a problem with it before."
"I know, I was kidding. Go to sleep." I turn off the light, and get under the covers. Riker wraps an arm around me, and pulls me close to him. "Goodnight, again."
"Goodnight. I love you."
"I love you too." I smile to myself, because I haven't gone to sleep this happy in a long time. I close my eyes, and slowly drift off to sleep.
