Accept The Past {Completed}

Day Off

I wake up warm, cozy, surrounded by an oh so familiar scent that I learned to love. I'm held by someone, Colby of course, in a spooning position, his left arm over me. I gently turn around to see Colbys blue eyes looking at me and I start smiling.

   "Good morning, princess." I raise my eyebrows looking amused.

   "Princess? That's new." He moves his head foreward to peck my lips. "Good morning prince." I return smiling, what makes him smile, but then I see the time on the clock on his wall behind him. "Oh shit!" I say and sit straight up. Colby sits up too, just slower.

   "What's wrong?" he asks me frowning.

   "I'm late for work." I want to get up, but Colby holds me down by putting his hands on my shoulder.

   "You're excused." Now I frown.

   "What?" He smiles.

   "I told Dylan that you won't come today and it would be great if he could excuse you. He'll do." I relaxe a little more.

   "So I have a day off today?" I ask just to make sure. Colby smiles and nods.

   "I figured you could need one day to sleep long." I fall back down and sigh happy.

   "Great, then let's do this." I say and Colby lays back down too.

   "Come here." he says and pulls me to himself. I burry my head in his chest and close my eyes as I put one hand over his back and he one over mine. "Sleep tight." he says and I slowly drift back into sleep.

I wake up again in an empty bed. The sun is shining through the window and the clock on the wall shows 12:17pm. I sit up and strech my arms before I stand up and take some clothes. I have to wash clothes again, too many are dirty.

   So I leave Colbys room and go into the bathroom to take a quick shower.

30 to 40 minutes later I walk down the stairs humming a song. I hear Sam and Corey play probably Rocket League in the gaming room so I walk to them.

   "Good afternoon, guys." I say and both look up for a second.

   "Hey." both say too fixed on the game they're playing. I decide to leave them alone and get something to drink. Oh! And look what I could make myself to eat.

   I walk into the kitchen and see something laying on the ground.

   "Colby?" I ask as I notice him. "Oh my god! Sam! Corey!" I call for the other two boys as I run next to Colby. Blood is oozing out of his arm and a bloody knife is laying next to his other hand. "Fuck! Sam! Where is your first-aid-kit?" I ask.

   "What?" Sam calls back, still in the gaming room.

   "Colby is laying here on the ground, bleeding!" I yell as I grab a kitchen towel to press it on his wound. I lift up Colbys arm and let it fall back down. "I hate you Colby!" I say and stand back up, throwing the towel at him. He starts to laugh as I walk away mad at him.

   "Welcome to the prank war!" Corey yells, standing in the door to the gaming room, Sam next to him with a camera.

   "You were in on that?" I ask and point at Colby who is standing now.

   "Yea, we were in." Colby is next to me by now.

   "You got pranked." he simply says and I puff mad. He wants to put an arm over my shoulder, but I step away with crossed arms.

   "Don't touch me with your bloody hands." I say and hold my hands up to keep the distance between us. He turns around and walks to the sink to wash his hands and arm, then he comes back, but I point at his shirt, that's bloody too. He sighs and pulls the shirt over his head and throws it at the counter.

   "Now?" I breath out deeply and nod and a second later he has an arm around my shoulder. "Thanks for watching guys and we see us in the next video." He looks at me and I just stare straight ahead. "You okay?" I look at him and wrap my arms around him to lean my forehead against his chest.

   "I thought you'd die." I say still shocked. "Why did you do that to me?" I ask and look up.

   "I'm sorry. I just saw the oppertunity and took it." he claims with a half smile.

   "Next time I will just walk pass you." I say and step back to finally get something to drink.

   "No you won't." he says taking his camera Sam held and the hidden camera.

   "I know, but please never do that again." I turn to him with a pleading look and he smiles slightly.

   "I won't." he says.

   "You promise?" I ask, looking hopeful.

   "I promise." I sigh relieved and nod.

   "Thanks." I make myself a little taller and kiss him. He pulls me closer by my waist to intensevy the kiss. I put my hands against his chest.

   "You are so cute, but I need my best friend." Colby and I seperate just to see Brennen standing in the hallway looking at us amused.

   "Yes, for what?" Colby asks Brennen.

   "Brolby stuff." I frown.

   "Brolby? Are you cheating on me, Cole?" I ask putting my hands on my hips.

   "Never!" He leans to me and pecks my lips.

   "I really like that you're calling him Cole. Why that?" Brennen asks and I shrug.

   "I really like the name so why shouldn't I use it?" I answer truthfully.

   "Still weird, but I like it when she calls me that." I look at him and pout.

   "Aww! I didn't know that! By the way, why are you called Colby when your second name is Robert?" I ask curious.

   "Yea man, you never told me that too." Brennen says and Colby chuckles.

   "In my class was another Cole and so our teachers always called us with the first letter of our last name. For the other guy it was Cole Gee and in my case Cole Bee. That turned in my nickname and since then I was only called Colby." (Don't know if the story is true, but saw that on youtube and it seems logic.) Colby explains. That makes sense.

   "You always learn something new." I say. "Now go and do you Brolby thing." I say and tap Colbys shoulder with my hand. He jumps to Brennen takes his hand and then both skip away. "Put on a shirt!" I shout after them giggling. Boys...
