Jealousy (pt. 2)

    "Hey, Laur?" I spoke up.

    "Yeah?" my boyfriend called out from the kitchen. 

    "Do you wanna go out for dinner?" I asked. Laurence let out a soft sigh before stepping out of the kitchen and into the living room.

    "Sorry, baby, but I'm going to meet with Aaron at him and Aph's place," he said with a small pout to his voice. I sighed and leaned back into the couch.

    I had grown use to this...  Laurence had been spending a lot of time with Aaron recently. Now I understand how he felt when I was always around Blaze... 

    "It's fine," I said with a hint of annoyance in my voice. Laurence seemed to notice, as he walked to sit beside me. 

    "Garroth, I'm sorry..." he whispered, placing his hand on my thigh. I looked into his eyes that were filled with guilt. I sighed and took his hand in mine.

    "It's alright, sweetheart," I whispered, leaning forward and pressing my forehead to his. "You go hang out with Aaron, alright? I'll be alright." 

    "Are you sure?" he asked. "I can cancel if you'd like, and we can go out to dinner." I smiled softly atthis before leaning forward and placing a small kiss on his lips.

    "It's alright," I muttered. "Just go ahead, I've been wanting to watch this horror movie for awhile, so it'll give me the chance to do so." He nodded, still seemingly unsure. I gave him a reasurring smile.

    "Alright... I'll see you later," he said. He pulled back and pecked a quick kiss on me cheek before walking towards the front door. He slid his shoes on and opened the door. He turned to face me, as if asking one last time if it was alright.

    "I love you," I said with a small smile. He returned the look.

    "I love you too," he said before walking outside and shutting the door behind him. As soon as the door shut, I sighed and slouched down in my seat. Honestly, I never saw Laurence anymore... I mean, sure I saw him in the mornings and for a little before he left for work. He had recently been taking extra shifts, resulting in him returning home later than usual. Most often I fell asleep before he got home. Even on the weekends, such as today, he was always running off to meet with Aaron. I'm not sure why he suddenly started acting like this. He's always been so attached to me, so I don't know why he seemed to want to be away from me as much as possible so quickly. It was odd...

    Of course, I avoided any thoughts related to him cheating or anything related to that. There's no way he'd do that, I trust him. Besides, Aaron? Really?

    Unless he's lying...

    Aish, no way! He'd never do that, he loves you!

    We've been together for a little over a year now, so I should trust him. So... why do I feel so uneasy?

    I chewed on the inside of cheek in thought. Maybe I'm just being irrational. The truth is, he's not going to do that to me. I know for a fact. Laurence is a trustworthy and loyal boyfriend, so I should believe so. I sighed and tugged at my hair. I pulled my phone out of my back pocket and brought up Aaron's contact.

    Me: Hey, is Laurence over at your place?

    I waited for a few moments, and then he responded.

    A-A-Ron: Yeah he is, why?

    Me: What are you guys doing? Can I come over and join you?

    A-A-Ron: Jealous, are we?

    I scoffed.

    Me: Me, jealous? Of course not. I'm just curious.
