Coming Back

Stay at home

Phichits P.O.V

Browsing through a list of apartments because to be honest if I am going to be living here I need to. Hotel food is something I have had quite a few times, and its disgusting after a while of eating it. I need to seriously find a good apartment so I can have Alexandru over to my apartment. He will have is own room of course as well.

Bring Bring! Grabbing my cell phone I see that its Abagail calling me. She and Clary were very good friends up until the second year of college when Abagail left. Surprised I press the answer button.

"Hey Phi I have a quick favor to ask you." She says. Putting my phone in my other hand I feel anxious about this.

"Sure what do you did help with?" I ask her adjusting my seating position so I am sitting up.

"Okay don't freak out, but Clary is in the hospital." Abagail says. What? She is in the hospital. Is she okay? What happened? Hearing  how fast my heart is pumping I try to calm down.

"Her boss called and told me that she fell of a ladder trying to put away some books. She just broke it. They need someone to pick her up, but I can't so could you?" Abagail begs. Oh thank god. She isn't hurt terrible badly or anything. Feeling some of my initial panic ebb a bit away.

"Okay I will be there soon. What hospital is it?" I ask while I grab my tennis shoe. Slipping them on I also grab my car keys.

"She's in Mercy. Don't worry to much I am sure she will be okay." Abagail says. What she doesn't know is that Clary can be very stubborn

Turning my key in the ignition my car starts. I make my way to the hospital. I will probably stick around, and help her today. She is going to get very annoyed with that cast on. Restricted movement will be a pain. Alexandru will probably have to be picked up by me.

Finally I enter the hospital parking lot. Seeing Clary walk right out I get out of my car, and yell "Hey Clary over here!" Motioning over to me. Spotting me she walks over here. I can see her purple cast on her arm. 

Opening up the door for her she gets into the car. Then I also get in. I have rolled down all of the windows because its summer time out right now. Breeze is making her hair go all over the place. Probably really annoyed with it being in her face. "I can put your hair up for you if you would like?" I offer to her.

She just nods her head offering her ponytail, and her hair. Gently grabbing all of it I carefully put it up in a ponytail. I also have a hat to help keep the sun out of her eyes. Finding my favorite hat I give it to her. Then we take of to go home.

I turn on the radio to drown out the silence . Our relationship used to be so easy for us. We would be able to talk about everything and nothing all at the same time. Now the awkward silence is terrible.   

Changing the station I finally land on a good song to do. It's called Only Us its from the Broadway play Dear Evan Hansen.  The song was our song. We sang it on our first date. We had gone to karaoke, and that's when we decided to try to be an US. Where whenever we go somewhere its a only us date. Anyway its basically where this couple confesses there feelings.

Just awkward now to be completely honest. She starts to sing so I come in with her even though our relationship is nothing like it was. Finally we reach the house. She gets out, and gets out her keys. Walking over to the door we both enter the house.

She immediately goes to her room to change out of her clothes. I sit on the couch, and wait for her to come in. In a few minutes she comes out wearing shorts, and a long sleeve t shirt as well. There black shorts, and  a blue t shirt. Which makes her eyes pop amazingly. Also her black hair falls down in her back  straight. She looks as beautiful as I remember.

We sit together and watch movies. Her favorite Disney movie Beauty and the Beast is on so here we sit. Singing to all of the songs because I have watched it a billion times. Until 3 o' clock come around, and I need to get Alexandru. Turning on my car I drive to the school. Clary said that she called them to let them know I was coming.

Seeing the big school loom in front of me. Although it is a day care they still teach kids over the school year,  but its very nice. They have some toys to play with. Noticing that there seems to be where the other parents are going I head over there.

A whole bunch of kids seem to be playing together. A woman walks up to me. She has long blond hair and brown eyes. She is wearing capris with a t shirt with the day care logo on it. "Hi I'm here to pick up my son Alexandru." I tell her.

"Oh okay, well hold on one moment." She says then she walks to where all the kids are playing. She seems to find him because he is running towards me. His whole face lights up at seeing me. His eyes so like mine sparkling in the back seat. 

We back out and head home. While I'm driving though he asks "Phi did you know my dad?" He asks looking up at me innocently. I wish I could tell him that I am his father, but I don't want him to be upset at me.

I mean what kind of father doesn't go to see his son. Granted it isn't all my fault, but my heart breaks every time. I don't want him to not love me. "No I didn't why?' I ask trying not to cry on the spot.

"Oh, well mama says that he is a figure skater. That's why I want to learn. So I can be just like him!" He says waving his hands in excitement. My heart fills with love for my son. He wants to be just like me? I can't believe that he would.

"What did your mama tell you?" I ask him honestly wondering what she has been saying.

"Well she told me that my daddy is figure skating, and that to be the best he has to travel a lot so he can't be here, but she said that when he does come home he will stay with us after becoming the best. She even made me a blanket with all his articles on it." He says.

My heart cant take much more. So she actually made me sound like a good guy. I thought maybe she wouldn't talk about me to him. I guess I was wrong though. She even made him a blanket?

I need to tell him that I am his father. Soon so I can explain to him that I am home, and I am not leaving any time either.
