"Hey," she simply says looking down at her shoes.
"What are you doing here?" I slowly ask.
"I... Uh... I'm not sure. I miss you and I love you and I'd do anything to be with you again," she tells me and her eyes start to tear up.
"Well this is awkward," Jc says and dismisses himself from the room.
"Um, let's go upstairs," I tell her and head back up.
Once we reach my room we each take a seat on the bed and the room goes silent. What do I say? The love of my life just showed up at my door and I don't even know if I want her here. What do I say about Andrea?
"So how are you?" Kristen asks and breaks the silence.
"I'm good, how about you? What did you do to your hair?" I ask.
She looks down and I instantly add, "not that it looks bad or anything, just curious."
"Well I changed up my hair for a fresh start. I know it sounds stupid but I just wanted something different," she shrugs.
"And how are you?" I ask again.
"I'm good... Actually I' not good, I haven't been good since the second you ended things with me. I'm a mess, an awful mess. I cry every single day and I think about you every second of everyday. In our lives we all have an epic love and you're mine. You're the one I want next to me everyday for the rest of my life," she tells me and I can't help but notice the stream, no waterfall, of tears coming down here cheek's.
"Kris, I don't know what to say..." I trail off
"Say you love me back, say you want me to say, so you'll be with me forever," she begs.
"I can't," I tell her and look away from her eyes. I need to tell her about Andrea, the guilt is eating me alive.
"Why not?" Kristen sobs.
"Can we please talk about this tomorrow?" I ask hesitantly. I just woke up and I really need some sleep.
"Okay," she sniffles and I get back under my covers. Just as I'm about to tell her there's a guest room at the very end of the hall she crawls in next to me and I can't deny her. I've never been able to deny her.
I take the remote on my nightstand and press it to turn the lights off. I lay flat on my back and Kristen is on her side. It feels like I moved here a lifetime ago instead of a few days.
I close my eyes and try to fall asleep. Just as I'm on the virge of passing out I feel Kristen nuzzle her head into my chest and throw and arm around me. I can still hear her sniffling from crying and I wrap my arms around her to bring her closer. I shouldn't but I can't help it. I can't deny that she is and always will be my epic love.

I wake up to my phone ringing and Kristen still clinging to me. I lift her arms up gently and place them where my body was and hop out of the bed and grab my phone. As I leave the room I look down to see that Andrea's calling and I slide it to answer once the door is shut.
"Hey," she casually says and I can here the toaster ring in the background.
"Hey what's up?" I ask and I hear her curse under her breath. She probably tried to pick up the scolding waffle.
"Not much, I just made myself some waffles, Jenn hasn't made them in like three days which is pretty annoying but you know, whatever," she laughs. "What's up with you?"
"Um, well Kristen showed up at our doorstep last night," I tell her and I'm nervous for her response.
"Oh. Did anything happen?" Andrea asks and I can hear how worried she is just by her voice.
