What I Think / Chapter 5: Yellow and Green
I woke up the next day in Sonny's bed with her in my arms. I have never felt so rested in my life.
And then I saw the clock.
We were three minutes late to work, and we hadn't even left yet.
"Sonny, Sonny wake up." I rubbed her shoulder.
"Hmmm... Chad?" her eyes flickered open and she looked at me in a way I never thought she would.
"Good morning sunshine. We're running pretty late."
"Oh no. we should probably get up." she started to sit up.
"How about we just call in sick today?" I ran my hand down her arm, but surprisingly she resisted.
"Nope. We need to go." she stood up.
I followed her into her bathroom, my arms never leaving her waist.
My fingers mimicked her hairbrush as she ran it through her hair.
"Fine. I'll just change at the studio." I said smoothing out my shirt out.
All day I walked around in a daze. A lovesick daze.
When I walked into my dressing room and found her sitting on a chair in the middle of the room, I felt like I had been holding my breath all day and now I could finally breathe. Everything was better now that I was with her again.
Usually I don't stick around for the day after hooking up with girls, but there's a first time for everything right?
