Grayson takes a deep breath and looks at me, as we sit on the couch.

"Char has been distant around me, she wants to go out more, go on vacations with friends more, comes home super late sometimes... I want her to live her best life but I feel like she's forgotten about me and I'm not longer one of her priorities..."

I look at him, he seems hurt, "Have you talked to her about it?"

"Yeah, we've argued about it and it feels like things will be fine after sorting it out, but she hasn't changed anything. And I still feel the same," he says worriedly.

I grab his hand, "Gray, I know you love her so much and I'm not going to tell you what to do but..if you guys have talked about it several times and nothings changed, but you guys might need a break."

"The worst part is I know you're right, always are. I just love her so much, it may be for the best," he says as a tear falls down his face.

"Hey," I wipe the tear away from him, "it could be a short break, if it's meant to be it will happen, okay? For now, her actions aren't making you happy or changing...and that's most important."

He nods and gives me a hug. He loves her so much, I'm worried about what he's going to do without her.

Grayson fell asleep on me, but after a couple hours I really want to go lay down in bed so I carefully removed his head from my lap, put a blanket on him, and headed to my room.

I sent Charlotte a text saying Grayson fell asleep and it was fine if he were to sleep here tonight, and all she sent was a thumbs up emoji. She really didn't care anymore.

After a while of staring at the ceiling, I hear Leo come home. He opened the bedroom door and smiled when he saw me; he lit up my life.

He showered and immediately got into bed, obviously exhausted.

"I miss you," I turn on my side and face him.

He laughs, "Babe you see me everyday."

"Barely, and you know that. But I miss you, I miss have quality time together that isn't sleep or having company over," confronting him about my feelings.

He looks at me, "I know. I'm sorry, our lives are hectic. Let's go on vacation in a couple weeks? We can fly anywhere you want, me and you."

"I would like that," I say smiling.

Within 5 minutes, he was out and I was left alone again, nothing new.
