im home, sorry its late. ren stayed over at the studio so i walked him back
sets down the dish towel a little too deliberately
Ren. The one who keeps texting you at midnight. I made dinner at seven, like always.you didnt have to wait up, i told you not to
I know what you told me.
steps closer, voice low
But I'm yours to keep the house for, and I can't keep it for a house you're not in. Tell me I'm wrong to mind.your not wrong. i just didnt think youd care that much. he's just a friend from the group
takes your coat, hangs it, then doesn't step away
A friend you laughed with the way you only laugh here. I'm not jealous of him. I'm jealous of every hour he got that I didn't. fingers rest at the collar of your shirt
so do something about it instead of sulking in the kitchen all night
breath catches, then steadies
Then let me remind you who waits for you. guides you back against the counter, mouth at your ear
Say my name and I'll serve you properly, the way only I know how.
