Qotd? Since I'm only working on "halo" right now, would you guys also be interested in fix? The book idea I had a few weeks ago?


The glow from the tv was the only source of light in the dark house. It was almost midnight, and I was alone in an empty bed. My boyfriend Shawn said he would be home by 10, but it's 11:45.

My mind raced with all the reasons he could be late.

Was he cheating on me?
I felt guilty for even thinking Shawn would do this, but it was a thought I couldn't control. I wondered if she was prettier than me, or better than me.

Was he injured?
I then started to believe that he got into a car wreck, and I would be getting a call any moment now telling me that he was in the nearest hospital. This made my heart race and tears formed in my eyes.

I picked up my phone to call him. He picked up on the third ring.

"Hey, I'm sorry that I haven't called or texted. I thought you'd be asleep, so I didn't want to wake you. I'll be home in about 5 minutes." Shawn said softly. He sounded exhausted.

"Okay, just be careful." I said holding the sheet closer to my body.

"I will, I love you." He said making me smile softly.

"I love you too." We hung up and I put my phone on the charger. As I watched friends my eyelids started to get heavy, before I knew it I was being woken up by the bed dipping down.

I turned to face Shawn. He wrapped his arms around me and placed a kiss on my forehead.

"Go back to sleep baby." He said making me hold him tighter.

"I was so worried." I confessed in a raspy voice.

"Why?" He asked I opened my eyes to met his confused brown ones.

"I was over thinking again." I said as he ran his fingers through my hair.

"Don't worry, I'm here now." He said before kissing me softly. I let out a small sigh of relief and rested my head in the crook of his neck.

"Goodnight." I said in almost a whisper.

"Goodnight Love." Shawn said in a raspy tone.

It was in that moment that I was in his arms, I knew that I had to stop over thinking things. Shawn is fine and I need to realize that.

I honestly hate this.
