A Stormy Love

Dave Rosin

"You want sugar in your tea sweetheart?"

WHY did he always have to be so nice to me... I could just kill him if he calls me one of those pet names again. It's only making me love him more.

I turn around in my chair to get a good look at him, when suddenly all my negative comments about him disappear. I nod my head in response to his question, not even completely sure what he was asking. He's so gorgeous that my mind just goes blank.

"So, what's this about this time, huh?" He questioned sliding his feet across the hardwood floor carrying 2 cups of tea towards the table.

Oh right. THAT'S why I was here in the first place.

I remember that I must look awful and use the stainless steel fridge door as a mirror. I look like shit. Great.

Dave adds the cream and sugar to my tea and hands it to me. He's being more gracious than usual. I must reallyyy look awful.

I sigh and put my tea down attempting to collect my thoughts and start to explain the fight with Jake in detail.

He can tell this is painful for me and puts his hand over mine, latching his fingers over my palm.

He looks at me with those darling eyes and whispers "it's ok, you can tell me anything."
