I woke up to my phone ringing next to my ear on my night stand. I looked at the contact ID; 'My Pain'. It was my best friend and soon to be boyfriend, Elijah. He and I have been talking for a couple months and we've been calling each other those cute couple nicknames.
I answer and checked the time; 2:56 am.
"Hello?" He asked softly in his sleepy voice.
"Yeah?" I responded tired as shit.
He went quiet then spoke up, "Can you come over right now?"
"You'll need to pick me up though." I yawned and closed my eyes.
"Well here is the thing, I'm actually not that far because I figured you'd say yes."
"Well how long am I staying over though?"
"Well remember how I said my mom is flying to Arizona for the week? Well I wanted you to keep me company while she's gone." He cracked a smile.
"Fine, but what am I supposed to do when you're off at the Marines office?"
"Just stay there, text me, play games, you'll be fine." He laughed.
"No i'm not!" I whined.
"How are you so adorable?" he laughed a little more.
It was now 3 am and I finished getting packed and hear him pull into my driveway. I locked my room and left a note for my grandma,
"Off at Eli's for the week, bye! <3"
I got into Eli's car and hugged him,
"I missed you." He pouted.
"I'm sure you did." I rolled my eyes and laughed. He sat there and stared at me, I stared right back at him. "What? Wanna fight?" I raised my brow.
"So mean." He laughed.
I placed my finger under his chin and brought him close, he came closer and I backed up and giggled; "Now that's what being mean is."
He rolled his eyes and drove off to his place.
