{Narrator POV }

Sitting bored in the house, Y/n stared at the screen in front of her, the noise blaring from the sound system not affecting her spaced out trance. She really couldn't wait any longer for Mikey to come home, she would die of boredom.

As thoughts ran through her mind, she couldn't help but think, rethink and over think almost every thing and anything. That was the scary part of being alone, you weren't actually alone.

She thought about the fact that, she never felt in so long, what it felt like to need someone's presence so much before she started dating Mikey, sure she had friends, but they all went home after a while, she was accustomed to doing everything on her own, even when she didn't have to, just so nobody could disappoint her, by leaving the words void and their actions undone.

Even in middle school, if she had one more good working pen, she'd put together her own money and restock her pencil case, while knowing full and well there were pens and high lighters among all of the stationery that was in the comfort of her home, but she refused to be put through the shame of asking and being told no, even if that wasn't the case.

Being forced to become self sufficient from a young age definitely didn't help the fact that she had trust and abandonment issues. So when she found that she could put aside some, if not all, of her doubts and trust Mikey, she really felt like she couldn't let that new feeling go. One by one, almost every wall she built became easier for him and only him to access, as though there was a secret passage only he knew. When that happened, she felt herself becoming emotionally attached as well, wanting to open up and expose her heart, but never coming close enough to trust anyone with it, so she kept that one wall up from him, guarding her heart as though it were a maximum security prison, probably like Riker's Island.

"Ughhhhhhhhh" she groaned snapping out of her almost dazed state, she switched off the television in frustration and sighed, deciding to get something to eat instead. Scanning through the refrigerator, she set her mind on eating the last slice of cheesecake she intended on saving. Making her way back the off-white sectional that sat in the middle of the living room, she nested herself among the neutral themed cushions and throw pillows that adorned the chair.

Not even bothering to retry watching the show she was once invested in, she sat in silence as she ate, really starting to wonder where the hell her boyfriend was. It had been three days since she last saw him in person, him having left the state for an away game, leaving her in the house alone.

Technically, no, she wasn't alone the whole weekend, on Friday three of her friends came over and spent the night, which led to them having a self care day on Saturday, followed by going to the club later Saturday night and then them parting ways early Sunday morning, she spent most of the day Sunday cleaning the house back up then settling down to watch Mikey's game, all while feeling as though it was impossible to wait for his return.

{Y/n's POV}
"Baby I'm home!" Mikey called as he hauled his bags through the door. I immediately spring up and go meet him at the door, nearly diving at him for the sake of a hug, not even bothering to give him time to close the door. " damn you missed me that much?" he chuckled "I did" I said chuckling myself as I reached up to peck his lips. "Congratulations again" I said "I appreciate it bae" he said. I took in his scent as I concealed myself further in his embrace, I felt like I could just stand there and bask in his scent all day, just so that my clothes would smell like him by default.

"you wanna stand here all day or can I go further into the house?" he chuckled " I'm sorry" I apologized "you good ma, I was joking" he replied as I nodded, picking up one of his bags, helping him carry it to the bedroom.

I left him to himself in the bedroom and came back downstairs, going into the kitchen to wash up the dishes I had used. Feeling Mikey's presence behind me, I quickly turned thinking him being quiet as he entered the kitchen was because he wanted to scare me, instead I frown at the sight of him on his phone. Huffing as I exited the room, I find myself in the backyard sitting on a lounge chair in the greenery of the beautiful exterior. Not that I had a particular fondness for meditating, but I had turned to unplugging and coming here to unwind mentally more recently. Boredom was really taking a toll on me, I had gotten accustomed to my busy work days and so to be at home doing nothing these past few days were almost as stressful as the eight hour shifts I put in at my job. I was on vacation, a well deserved one as my boss and coworkers put it and being honest the late overnight hours were never enjoyable, but the limited choices of activity everyday caused me to want to dig an early grave, I had sought to starting a vegetable garden but I knew when these two weeks were up I'd have no time or patience to tend to it so I left the thought undeveloped.

I also have been trying to get in a lot more time with Mikey lately, being that my usual schedule really clashed with his in that when I was just coming back home he was just headed to practice and then sometimes he was gone all weekend, so I really enjoyed the extra time we got.

I had almost fallen asleep in the bright sunshine when I decided that it was time for me to head inside, taking my time as my legs had to become re- adjusted to walking.

Going inside, the silence I met made me assume that Mikey had fallen asleep, he did look tired, it wouldn't surprise me if he succumbed to the drowsy syndrome. I made my way into the bedroom to find him with his back against the headboard as he typed away at his phone. I furrowed my eyes in confusion, curious at to who he was talking to or what he was typing, but left it alone. Going to where he was situated on the bed, I straddled him and slightly repositioned his hand to fit easily in the space between them. In his own wordless way, he gave me permission to do so. I placed my head in the crook of his neck, wrapping my arms around him restarting the process of drifting off to sleep, only now in his comfort. I sighed as I feel his hand rub my back, confirming that he wanted me here, or so I thought.

.

"She just been acting like this damn big baby, I swear like, I only got thirty minutes to myself since I been home" I heard Mikey complain " Bro she hugging all up me this whole time and won't let me go for shit"

I had stopped in the living room on my journey around the house to get my revenge on Mikey, Who had abandoned me in my sleep, to be met with the sound of him complaining about my affection and maybe I had been doing too much, but why didn't he talk to me about it first?

I was more upset that he didn't even tell me anything about it before than I was at the fact that he was lowkey embarrassing me and I didn't even know who he was talking to. I made an U-turn and went back upstairs as quietly as I came down, not wanting him to be aware that I knew of this conversation. Retreating to the room and got my phone off the charger, at least he actually had the decency to put it on for me. When I unlocked it, the first notification I could see is that Mikey had gone live five minutes ago, meaning most probably, he was talking about me to complete strangers, unaware of the embarrassment he was causing me. I had joined and I saw that he had the phone laying so that the camera was facing the ceiling as he talked, I silently hoped that he'd see that I joined and he stop talking. Another part of me wanted to hear the conversation though, to hear what he thought about my affection.

"Don't get shit wrong, I love that she be doing allat, but she be too clingy and shit" he said, still not having paid attention to the comments, not noticing persons trying to tell him I had joined.
