wedding, tommyinnit.

thirty seven. impulsive.

warnings: none!

IRL

snuggling deeper into my comfortable sheets, i smiled at the scent of the comfort of my own bed that i'd missed so much.

i'd been home for a good few hours now, unpacked all my belongings, and got straight into bed. my parents were both at home and maia had gone straight to sleep.

despite it being probably the best long weekend of my life, oh how i missed my room. i was also looking forward to the first sleep in four days where i wouldn't be getting shoved off the bed by tommy.

lorelai and i still hadn't resolved our argument, but i tried my best not to think about it. sure, we'd had arguments before but they never lasted this long. maybe this time we were fully never going to talk again. however i was glad that niki wasn't awkward with me over it, and we maintained our friendship.

even though i'd spent so much time with him, i found myself missing tommy. it was clear i liked the boy, but only the moment we were watching the sunrise cuddled in a blanket and cracking stupid jokes was what made me truly realise how badly i'd fell for him.

there was so much tension between us, never wanting to leave each others side. i wasn't sure about getting in another relationship, and tommy was very much aware of that information. it wasn't anything to do with tommy, it was just me and my personal issues, i already dumped so much on him and him being my boyfriend would probably just make it worse.

trying to brush away the thought of him so i wouldn't call and ask him to come over, i reached around my bed, grabbing the remote. turning my tv on, i started watching random videos in my youtube recommended.

my eyes drifted to the half-full bottle of vodka sat on my desk, begging to be drunk. mentally scolding myself, i turned back to face the tv. then again, the thought of drinking till i'm numb did not sound like a bad idea. however, drinking on a monday night by myself? too sad. wouldn't stoop that low over a stupid argument. would i?

shaking my head, i changed my mind about watching youtube, quickly growing bored. i want a dog.

picking my phone up for the first time in a few hours, i rang my mums number, she let it ring twice before answering.

"hiya sweetheart, everything okay?" her voice asked softly through the speakers of my phone.

"yeah, everything's alright. erm, can i get a dog?"

"what? are you serious?"

"yes, well, can WE get a dog?" quickly correcting myself, "please, i'm so lonely these days."

"you gonna pay for it?"

"we'll go half." i compromised.

hesitantly, she agreed. streaming a lot of incoherent 'thank yous and i love yous' before ending the phone. i knew my friend from college was selling puppy golden retrievers, so i messaged her. after that, i messaged my mum saying if we got one how much we would each pay, and saying that i would pay for the dogs food bowls and such.

hearing my phone buzz, i quickly picked it up and grinning at the name 'ellie.', skimming the message i immediately let out a scream.

"we have one girl left, and we needed her gone today so i'm glad you messaged!! you can have a discount too because i love you and i'm kind."

replying and asking what times best, i ran into maia's room. she covered her ears as i ran in and she squinted her eyes, making it blatantly obvious she just woke up.

"okay, oh my god, you're gonna think i'm the best sister ever! i'm buying us a dog, get dressed, we're going pets at home." i demanded, though confused, she nodded and moved out of bed.

"get out then," she shooed.

we both got ready and i drove us to pets at home, we got everything we would need and probably a lot more than what we needed.

after a while, we got the puppy. i don't know where the random idea to get one came from, but i'm not mad about it. we named her angel, because we're basic white girls.

with the excitement running through my veins, i facetimed tommy. it rang all the way through and he didn't answer, i frowned but figured he was just streaming or busy —- which is understandable.

we took her home and she ran around, immediately finding comfort at the foot of my bed. pouting, i took a picture and sent it to my mum, who immediately approved.
