" WE USED TO NEVER GO TO BED ANGERY, BUT THATS ALL WE EVER DO LATELY. NOW YOURE TURNING AWAY LIKE YOU HATE ME; DO YOU HATE ME ? " -little mix

✧*｡ 02; NOT SO SWEET LIFE ｡*✧
ー margo jones.

margo sat underneath the dim light above her mahogany kitchen table, paging through her latest spread in vogue. Her ears perked up at the sound of someone coming through the door and she took her time before lifting her gaze to find her boyfriend tiredly tossing his stuff onto the wet bar. She huffed as he didn't say anything and went right to the refrigerator to grab a can of Mountain Dew. Margo folded her arms, cocked her head, and tapped her mauve acrylic nails against the wood as she watched him.

When she still got no response from him she sighed annoyed. "We were supposed to go out tonight Harry. Where were you," she asked unfolding her arms as he shut the fridge door. Harry turned around and took a swig from his drink before shrugging. "Sorry, I forgot. I was out I guess," he muttered picking up his flannel that had fallen of the ledge and onto the floor. "You guess ? Harry it's 2:06 in the morning. I waited for you. I begged my boss for a week to let me have a day off and you decide to stand me up because you guess you're out with friends," Margo cried now angry.

"M I'm sorry. I just forgot. Geez can you not yell it's been a long day. I fucking hate coming home to hear you nagging," Harry groaned rubbing the bridge of his nose. Margo couldn't believe it. "You're hardly ever home Harry," she spat. Harry stood before shaking his head and migrating to the countertop. He really wasn't in the mood to fight, or talk at all for that matter. "Who were you even with tonight," Margo asked standing up.

"The boys I don't know," he sighed. Margo raised an eyebrow. "You don't hang out with the boys," she snapped catching Harry's lie. He groaned and shook his arms. "The other boys. Grimmy, Xander, the lot... it- it doesn't matter," Harry snapped. He hated when she would always interrogate him like this this. He just wanted to rest for a second, not fight with his girlfriend. He had other shit to deal with, she didn't need to be added to the list.

"Yes Harry, it does matter. And I always have to nag or interrogate you because you show up in the middle of the night with no answer as to where you have been. I'm your fucking girlfriend not your goddamn mother, I shouldn't be having to wait up for you and an explanation," she spat. Harry rolled his eyes. "Then don't, you don't need to question me," he said. Margo shook her head. "Actually I do Harry, because the last time I didn't, look what happened," she snapped folding her arms and stating coldly at Harry.

"God do you have to bring that up every fucking time. Let it go Margo I made a mistake, I apologized," he yelled now getting angry. Margo scuffed. "No Harry. I can't just let it go. I can't just let go of the fact that behind my back you deceived me and fucked some skinny blonde model with a family day after day while lying to my face continuously," she roared. How dare he act like what he had done to her was something that she could easily dismiss.

"Baby, I'm sorry ok. I'm trying," he said in a much softer tone reaching out to Margo. "We'll try harder Harry. I don't want to lose you," she sniffled feeling tears prick at her skin. She wouldn't cry. She wouldn't let herself. Not again tonight. "Harry, if you don't put in the effort then this relationship will collapse. I just asked for one night with you and you go partying surrounded by girls who are lining up to get it with you. I won't let you repeat last time, I won't let you put me in this place again," Margo warned.

"Why don't you just believe me for once. Believe me. I was just out with friends," Harry stressed. Margo sighed growing frustrated that Harry couldn't just apologize or see her point. It was always an argument with Harry. It was always no big deal with anything with Harry. "You don't show up to go to dinner and you come home at 2 in the fucking morning with no warning of where you are and then you give me a halfass unsure answer that you were out at a club. What am I supposed to think Harry," she insinuates.

"God you know what Margo, I'm fucking tired," Harry snapped slamming his pop into the counter and stomping off to the bedroom. Shit. Sure Margo was pissed because she really expected Harry to pull through tonight, but the only thing worse than that would be for Harry to pull away. So she left the table and followed after him to where he sat shirtless on the bed with his face in his hands. Margo sighed and climbed onto the duvet.

"I'm sorry Harry. I'm just- I want this to work out. I'm just scared. I wanted to have a nice dinner with you and I was scared when you didn't show up. I just thought that maybe you- I don't know. I want this Harry, I just want you," Margo said softly reaching out to touch Harry's back. At her contact Harry moved and turned away from Margo. "I'm going to sleep," he grumbled turning on his side and pulling the covers up over him as he closed his eyes.

Margo squeezed her own shut and placed her face in her palm before running her fingers through her hair. It was never like this at a point in time. They would never go to bed angry. Just with the contact of skin on skin and hearts filled with passion. But things change. She herself turned and got under the covers, the two both going to bed angry. Harry slept and Margo laid there soundlessly crying with far too much on her brain for her to even dream of a place where she was happy in her own mind.
