James POV

There comes a point in a relationship where no matter how strong the bond is, you'll have a big fight and it will probably be over something small and stupid.

Unfortunately, thats today.

We were screaming at each other, probably freaking the hell out of our neighbors and not doing anything as it got more out of hand.

Quite quickly, it got to the point where tears were threatening to fall. "I think we need some space," I said, gulping down the tears. There was no way i was going to cry, i dont need his pity.

Thomas stopped, almost like he had gotten slapped in the face."No! Hey, I'm sorry. Okay, we can work this out."

Tired of fighting, i just shook my head, my eyes not leaving the gray carpet, and headed to our bedroom. Despite my shaking hands, i managed to stuff some of my belongings in an old backpack and thanks to the locked door, i had time to be alone.

Snow had followed me in the bedroom, purring against my leg, looking up at me with bright blue eyes. I found myself drowning in the sea of blue, softly petting the smooth white fur.

For a while it was fine, just me and Snow in the comfort of an empty room. Then, Thomas found the extra key and was apoligizing once more.

Exhaustion wieghed down on my shoulders like bricks and i just wanted to leave. I was yelling at him again, my backpack slunged over my shoulder and Snow held in my arm.

Sniffing, i tightened my hold on Snow and fumbled to open the front door. My hands were shaking so much i had to put down the white bundle of fur to get the stupid door open.

Cold air rushed against my face, resembling small iciles more than anything really. As if i were being pet, i smiled and pushed my head against the wind, enjoying the cool air.

Ive always loved the feeling of the night air, and it felt ten times better against my hot skin. Grabbing Snow, i walked down the steps leading up to Thomas' apartment.

"James, stop! You cant leave me like this, i need you!" my heart ached at those words but my feet kept walking down the sidewalk, not really having a destination in mind. He followed me.

"What? Do you not need me anymore? Is that it? If you didn't like me in the beginning why didn't you say anything?" he choked. It sounded as if he was crying, i forced my heart to calm down and kept walking.

His footsteps halted, making a sigh of relief leave my mouth, but then he said something that made my blood run cold,

"Fine. Have fun sucking Aarons dick for rent money."

My feet stopped, Snow was pawing at my chest and looking at me with her pretty cat eyes. I looked down at her with a tiny smile, whispering, "Stay here, okay pretty girl?"

She cocked her head to the side as i gently sat her on the sidewalk. My heart was beating a million miles a minute and i wanted nothing more than to kick Thomas' ass.

I turned, taking long strides towards Thomas until i got within an arms distance,

Smack

Brown curly hair covered his eyes as he stood there, holding his left cheek, which was now becoming red.

"Go to hell, Thomas."

I then walked back to Snow, holding out my hands for her to jump into. My feet started moving again and i didnt look back, his footsteps didnt follow.

Anxiety kicked in right when i was out of the houses sight. I didnt have anywhere to go. And i left my phone in the apartment. Shaking with anxiety and nerves, i picked the first place i saw to stay at for a while.

A glowing neon sign that read, "Coffee, Coffee, and Wifi" caught my eye, making me curious as to why I've never seen this place.

----------------

I had decided to get myself some coffee since i would drink anything warm at this point. I ordered a cappuccino, then went back outside to find a comfy spot to sit with Snow.

A large tree covered most of "Coffee, Coffee, and Wif," and some of the curb connected to the drive thru. I settled down there and let Snow wander around a bit.

Warmth spread throughout my body as i took sips of my drink, thankful for the warmth and the distraction of what just happened, i placed a tiny bottle cap next to Snow and filled it with the warm coffee.

We sat there drinking our coffee until a pair of bright headlights shined on us. I nearly had a heart attack when a tall figure stepped out of the car, coming closer to us.

Snow meowed at the now familiar figure as i quickly averted my eye down to my coffee, not wanting to look at him.

My coffee was losing its warmth and i found myself wanting to get more just for the feeling of safety.

Thomas sat next to me without saying a word, i didn't make a comment. He picked up Snow and started petting her, she meowed happily in his arms and started purring. I kept my gaze on the coffee and swished it around. Traitor.

I was shockingly calm about the situation, maybe thats because i used all my emotions in the fight. Now i just felt dead and didn't care what happened.

Perhaps that why i mumbled into the silence, my voice barely above a whisper, "Do you want some coffee?"

I felt his eyes on me and kept my gaze on the liquid warmth. I think he nodded his head but realized i wasn't going to look up so said quietly, "Yeah, thank you."

I nodded my head and scooted closer to Thomas, gently handing him the cup, then as i was about to pull back, i felt his side rub up against mine. I stayed there, so close to Thomas that I could hear him breathing in the silent, cold night.

And that's the story of how Thomas, Snow and i spent the whole night behind a coffee shop drinking cappuccinos.
