Branden said he was visiting Jake while I went out with Fenix. Ever since I told him about Fenix and I, he's been acting different. He doesn't talk to me the way he used to and he seems really gloomy all of the time.

I push the thought of Branden out of my mind and focus on Fenix's warmth and scent. He says he'll protect me no matter what but I have yet to tell him that I can easily protect myself.

Training to fight the Society really pays off.

"So how's your day going so far?" I ask him.
"Great. Ready for a cheesy line?" He replies with a grin.
"Oh god no. But proceed."
"Amazing because I'm with you."

The cheesyness of it is so adorable. I smile like an idiot and grab Fenix's hand. I never want this day to end.

**********************\*****

The day's over and Fenix brings me back home. We say goodbye and I enter my humble abode. Branden's car isn't in the driveway so I assume he's spending the night with Jake. I decide to call him to tell him I'm home.

I press on his contact name and let the phone ring. It rings a couple of times and then it goes to voicemail.

Maybe he's not hearing the phone ring.

I decide to call him again. Once again, no answer. I call about 5 more times before I eventually give up. Branden will call me tomorrow. I'm sure of it.
