...

Everything was quiet and dark and comfy. Blue was sound asleep and I was too until I woke up needing to use the toilet.

I tried to ignore it hoping to wait until the morning but it was no use. The bed was so warm and our Jules was even warmer...actually it was my doing. She was always so cold but with me there to warm her up she definitely thanked me for it.

I let go of her and rolled over as slow as I could before I finally got out of bed. I tiptoed towards the bathroom feeling along since it was so fucking hard to see. We had a nightlight on in the bathroom but it did fuck all. I think Blue would've preferred having it off anyway but I liked it still.

I fumbled about and found the light switch. I blinked as everything brightened up when my eyes weren't ready for it. They got adjusted then I made my way to the toilet.

"JESUS CHRIST!" I screamed when I lifted the lid and saw something under it. I looked at it properly and realized it was a picture of some bird. "Fuck off!" I ripped it off and headed back out to the bedroom.

Jules was rolled over away from me now. I had a feeling she was awake so I didn't feel bad making sure she was.

"What the fuckin' hell's this?!" I shouted while shaking her shoulder.

"What?" She gasped rolling over to see. She started to giggle when she finally got a good look at it. "A Pinterest success!"

I stared at her confused. "A what?"

She smirked to herself. "That boy's a gen-i-us! Whoa! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!" She half sang.

I just tutted throwing the picture on the floor before crawling back in bed with her.

The next day, Jules was out doing some interview while I stayed home. I could've gone to Pretty Green I suppose but with the tour coming up I really just wanted to spend time with her. But I never went with her for interviews. That was one place I wasn't allowed. She probably worried I'd get in the way or summat but that would never happen. I'd only just try and help.

I couldn't let it get me down though. She'd be home soon enough and then we could shut the rest of the world out. She assured me the faster she got her interview done the faster she'd be home so it was better for me to just leave her to it.

We had no plans for when she got back and I was okay with that. It was fine by me to just hide in the flat together preferably with no clothes on.

The morning crept by and the afternoon went even slower. I had no idea who Jules was interviewing that day. It could've been anyone I suppose but the NME didn't give her crap bands to interview.

I tried not to think about the time because it only made things worse. It made it slow down even more to the point I figured it'd probably stop. But I couldn't let that happen so I tried to focus my attention on something else.

There was the telly but nothing was on. There was Twitter but I really couldn't think of anything worthwhile to say. Then it made me think about how Jules didn't like Twitter so I had no choice but to fucking turn it off.

I was bored out of me mind then. I could've gone out but I didn't want to leave the flat. I already went for my morning run and had a shower but...maybe I could coerce Blue into having another one.

"Nah! She won't go for that!" I told myself.

Our Jules preferred showers in the morning. And if I wanted her to have one with me at night I was really going to have to work hard at convincing her to join me.
