Will's P.O.V

It had been two weeks of dodging text after text, call after call. I was till pretty upset so I decided to take a vacation and went back home to visit my family. Of course Nathan tried reaching me through them but I simply told them that we were fighting and I just needed space for awhile. After a week home, my brother decided it would be a good idea to spend the rest of my vacation days in the lake house away from people and just fish and enjoy the out doors for a change. I could tell he was worried about me, I spent most of the time looked in my room like a teen-ager, so I just tagged along.

I debated over and over again asking myself if I really wanted to end things. What would it mean for our relationship if I decided to continue? Did I really want to give him a chance and possibly get hurt in the process? I thought. Admits all of this I missed him. The way he listened to my feelings when I talked about it. The way he constantly and insistivly put his arms around me. The way we could just sit in comfortable silence and enjoy an afternoon together. And his goofy ass smile when he saw me in a crowd.
Still a bit frustrated I made a decision to go back and face my problems.

It was a new day, the last weekend of my vacation, I woke up early to go to the gym. On my way home after, I unblocked Nathan and shoot him a text to come over some time in the afternoon and talk. I pushed my phone in my pocket and got in the elevator to my apartment. As the doors opened I saw a man in all black at my door. It didn't take long to realise who it was and that he was drunk as he was trying to open my door with his key. After trying with no avail he took the liberty to sit on my door step. I budged him but he only clung to me and cried. After listening to him I told him what an idiot he was right after he blacked out.

I dragged him in my house and put him on the couch and looked at him for a bit.

Now is a good a time as any to get this over with.

I went to take a shower and got back and found him still out. I decided to make something to eat and heard him moving around which hinted he was awake. I gave him food, coffee and we talked.

I woke up to the sound of my alarm going of and I reached out to my dresser and turned it off. I looked at the body laying next to me still and sleeping peacefully. I smiled at the situation thinking I don't mind waking up like this every morning. I know we have a long way to go but I also knew I'd be kicking myself if the one thing I wanted for so long I didn't give myself the chance to have and and experience. I was happy.
