Two Weeks- Part 2

*Basilton's POV*

Why isn't he answering? This is my third time calling Simon and he still hasn't picked up. He should be awake by now, it's 9:45, and I told him last night that I'd call today, though he WAS half-asleep when we talked. I still want him to answer my calls though. It's starting to worry me, Simon never dodges my calls, and I would think that now, when I'm gone and he is most likely freaking out, he would pick up before the first ring. Obviously, that isn't happening.

"Hello?" I hear a female voice say when I call for the fourth time. "Who is this?! Where is Simon?!" I yell into the cell, nervousness taking over. Evil thoughts start to poison my mind. 'Who is that? What if he is cheating? How long has this been going on? I knew I wasn't good enough for Si-' There is a loud laugh on the other line, effectively interrupting my thoughts.

"Jeez, Basil, calm down. Simon is getting dressed. What as got your pants in a knot?" The voice laughs at me. Then I realize that I recognize the voice. Bunce. "Oh, well, why doesn't he have his cell with him? I've called a million times and no one answered! I was terrified!" My voice raises without meaning to and I stop before I can say something I'll most likely regret later. "Basilton! It's okay! Simon is okay! Simon left his cell out here when he got in the shower and forgot to get it when he went to get ready. I swear to Merlin, you to can't do anything without each other. We, Micah and myself, got here to find Simon curled in his bed asleep while still wearing his day clothes and food left out in the kitchen." Bunce explains to me over the call. I sigh with relief knowing that my love is okay. Maybe Bunce is right, we can't do anything without each other. I don't necessarily see that as a bad thing, it just means we love the other too much to be apart. On the other hand, it hurts me to know that Simon isn't doing well when I'm not there.

"Well, okay. Tell Simon to text me later then, I have to get to work. Bye, Bunce. Tell Micah I said hello." I say before hanging up without letting her say anything more. 

I don't know why I'm so upset. Wait, I do know why I'm upset, but I don't want to acknowledge it. This is my first time being away for more than 3 days from Simon since we got together 7 years ago. I'm worried that something will happen while I'm gone. That there will be some freak accident that I could've prevented if I was there. Or that in the three weeks, well now two, Simon will meet someone that can make him happier than I can. It's just my nerves talking, but it's hard not to believe something bad won't happen. Simon is a walking disaster, but usually I'm there to stop him from being too reckless, or I'm there to lead him down a different aisle at the market when I notice a cute guy on the one Simon wants to turn in.  I'm not there now. Yes, Penny and Micah are there, but they aren't going to be there every day for the next month. Anything could happen between now and the next time I see Simon in two weeks, and that scares me more than anything.

"Baz? You in there?" I hear Niall yell into my temporary room, also known as Niall's spare bedroom. I sigh and put my cell in my pocket as I finish getting ready to go. If there is one good thing my father taught me, it's that you should always dress your finest when going to work, it shows that you are responsible and can be trusted. So far, that rule has been a blessing for me.

"I'm here! Come in of you want!" I call back to Niall. He walks in and immediately jumps into the bed. If it weren't for him being my ex, and being a complete prat when we dated, I think Simon would like Niall. They are both children at heart. "So I may have been eavesdropping and heard some things. Who's this 'Simon?'" Niall wiggles his eyebrows with a mischievous smirk as he asks. I glare at his antics. "Simon is my boyfriend, dear Niall. And, truth be told, this is our first time being without each other." I tell him as I finish tying my tie. I hear a cat-call behind me and have to take a deep breath so I don't punch the idiot. 'Why did I date this child?' My mind sighs. I smile at the thought, knowing that breaking up with Niall was the best choice for me. And it was, because now I have the most amazing boyfriend in history.
