Iris's POV

I woke up, panting. Great, another bad dream. I went to go on my side but something was stopping me. I saw Jeff snuggling me. I sighed and squirmed out of his hold. He woke up and looked at me. I got my shoes on and grabbed my phone. I checked the time. It read '9:23 AM.' Ok, wow it's late.

 "Iris?"

 "Yea?"

 "Where are you going?"

 "To my hotel room."

 "Why?"

 I sighed. I just left because I knew he would try and convince me to stay. And I can't say no to him. So might as well leave. When I got to my room, I changed and went to the gym. Twenty minutes later someone enters. I look and see Jeff. He works out right beside me. Great. We are the only two here also since everyone worked out earlier. It was quiet. Then I left. That was awkward. 

 *Two Days Later*

I'm finally home. I'm at my tiny apartment that only had a kitchen, washroom, laundry room, and small living room. Also they were all small. It was good enough for me though. I live in North Carolina. Which I found out when Jeff told me, that Jeff lives here too. So his house can be close to my apartment building! I found out also that he got a divorce two years ago. 

Jeff: Hey do you wanna hang out today?

Me: Sorry I'm busy. Can't :/

Hell no I'm not busy! But am I gonna spend time with Jeff after all that just happened? I mean we slept together. Not sexually though. So it's not as bad as I'm making it sound. But whatever. Then he sends me a texts that I don't know how to respond to.

Jeff: What are you busy doing?

I can't say I'm hanging out with friends because we both know I don't have friends. Only Jeff and Matt. Matt lives somewhere else with his wife. I guess I could say I'm out shopping. But that won't last the whole night. Maybe if I say I'm hanging out with a guy I met? Sure. 

Me: I met a guy. He is taking me out for dinner soon.

Jeff: Which restaurant?

WHAT THE HECK?! Ok, he is so nosy! Just say ok so I can leave! I feel bad for lying. But what if he goes to the restaurant to check. Well he won't know what time we'll be there so... Ha! Maybe I don't have to respond to him. So I won't. It's been a couple hours. I am relaxing. Watching some TV. I have RAW recorded so I wanna see what else happened that night. I am also eating popcorn. Classic Saturday. Tomorrow we have to leave to Indianapolis for the next RAW. So I decided to pack. I am packing now and watching RAW. My house is completely dark except for the TV. That's the only light I have on right now. Then I heard my phone ring I grabbed it. Jeff is Facetiming me. So I answered.

 "Where's your date?" He smirked at me evily.

 "He left."

 "So I can come over?"

 "Never said you could."

 "Please. I need to see you!" He begged.

 "Well would you look at that! Your looking at me now through the phone!" I smirked sarcastically. He rolled his eyes.

 "In person."

 "I'm afraid that can't happen. I'm packing and-" There was a knock on the door. I pressed pause on the TV and got up. Instead of looking through the peephole like a normal person would I was being stupid and opened it. It was Jeff. I slapped my head and laughed.

 "How? Why?" I asked.

 "How? Matt told me where you live. Why? You are done with the 'date' you have." He walked in.

 "Yea Jeff why don't you come in." I said to him sarcastically. He sat down on my couch. This should be great.
