kiss it all better | c.h au

two.

as i had guessed yesterday, i was sore all over. even with taking another bath, i still felt like i couldn't move. so, now i was laying on my couch while trying to find a movie or show to start watching. nothing seemed interesting and i groaned, dropping the remote to the floor.

for some reason, i thought about texting calum for recommendations. i'd already watched almost everything that my other friends had told me to watch, so i was running out of options. grabbing my phone from the coffee table in front of me, i pulled up calum's contact and chose the option to text.

me: hey cal. so, i'm trying to find a netflix thing to watch (movie, show, whatever) but i've already watched so many i can't find anything. any recommendations?

i put my phone beside me, knowing he wouldn't respond immediately. it's only noon, who knows if he's even an early riser? i'd never been one to sleep past 11 as it means half the day had already gone by, so i just felt like it wasn't worth doing anything after that.

about 7 minutes later, my phone dinged with the normal text sound that i'd never change even though i'd had my phone for over a year now. i hadn't even changed the ring tone for anyone yet.

cal: hey addy. have you watched the office? or breaking bad? i'd definitely recommend those.

me: the office! i haven't seen that yet! that's one of the show my friends would always recommend me but i never got around to watching. thanks cal!

cal: not a problem addy

finally having a show to watch, i picked up the remote from the flor and went to the search bar, using the remote to put the few letters in until 'the office' popped up.

•

it was almost 5pm, and i was still watching 'the office'. i'd gotten up to get food and more water, but that was really it. it was a good show. at least, comedically wise. it made me laugh and those are the shows i will always want to watch.

i was in the middle of laughing at a scene when there was a knock on my door. calming myself down, i paused the show and unlocked the door, then opened it.

"hey addy. if you have any plans tonight, cancel them. it's been too long since we hung out." my mouth was agape as i faced my long time best friend that i hadn't seen in years. the shock quickly dissipated into a large smile and i practically jumped on her to give her a hug.

well, no, i did jump on her and we landed on the ground, both breaking out into fits of laughter.

"hanna! you didn't even tell me you were coming! oh my god you bastard i can't believe you didn't tell me! what if i'd been out of town!?" i exclaimed as we stood up together, both brushing ourselves off. hanna laughed again, then brushed past me and walked into my apartment. i followed her, shutting and locking my door behind me.

"what kind of surprise is it if i tell you? and, remember, you tell me everything? i knew you weren't doing anything today considering you ran 6 freaking miles yesterday." that is true.

"damn that's right. oh well, you're here! ah! i've missed you so so much." i hugged her again, this time with less jumping on her. hanna hugged me back, and my smile grew. long time no see hugs were always the best hugs.

we pulled apart after a few moments, then hanna turned away from me and began checking out my apartment, a grin growing on her face.

"this all screams 'addy'. you really turned this into your place, huh?" she didn't look back at me as she peered into my bedroom.

"yeah. you know decorating and i, we're tight." hanna chuckled at my statement, turning around to face me.

"you look really good. not just looks wise either. you just, i don't know, you look happy. which i'm very glad to see." a smile spread across my face at her statement. last time i saw her, my boyfriend and i had broken up. it wasn't on bad terms or anything, it was a mutual understanding we just weren't working anymore, but i was still heartbroken and had been for about 3 months. now, it's a year later and i hardly ever think about him.
