Reviens à Moi ✩ Hardzello

You're Such A Nerd

•short•

Joe's P.O.V

I rubbed my eyes an squinted at the bright light peering through the blinds.

I turned onto my other side and smiled.

I missed having Ben right next to me every morning when I woke up and every night when I went to sleep.

I tightly wrapped my arms around his torso and buried my face in his chest.

I really didn't want to go to work today but I knew Ben would still make me.

I heard him stir awake and he yawned.

I pretended to be asleep so hopefully I could get out of working today.

"Joey" he whispered.

He looked over at the clock on the nightstand and then back down at me.

"C'mon baby it's time for work." He nudged my shoulder.

I groaned and didn't move a single inch.

His hands slowly moved down to my waist and I moved closer to him.

He stroked my lower back and I hummed in response.

"Pleeeaaseee don't make me go. I wanna stay with you" I whined.

He sighed and shook his head.

I felt Ben slowly move out of my grasp and when I opened my eyes again he was standing at the foot of the bed with his hands on his hips.

I rolled my eyes and got out of bed.

I slipped on some black jeans and the t-shirt I got from the Elton John concert I went to a few months back.

I was starting to head out the door but Ben stopped me.

He grabbed and hoodie and shoved it in my face.

"I don't want you to be cold."

I smiled at him and slipped the hoodie on.

Once we reached the flower store Ben let go of my hand and I turned to face him.

He hugged me tightly and kissed my cheek.

"I'll see you later Joey" he smiled as he spoke.

I nodded and waved as I walked into the small store.

My coworker, Adam was practically jumping up and down.

"What's got you in such a good mood?" I asked.

"Oh, nothing you two are just so cute!" He squeaked.

It wasn't the first time he's made that comment.

I rolled my eyes and walked behind the counter to fetch my sunflower coloured apron.

I grabbed a watering can and walked over to the roses.

Adam usually just worked as a cashier so he was standing behind the counter filing his nails.

I quickly fixed up some of the flower displays and walked back over to the counter to make some conversation.

"So, how's the theater thing going?"

Adam just shrugged and looked down at his nails again.

Adam was quite big on theater and was even part of the production Wicked for a few years.

Recently he's been trying to get another acting gig but nothing's really worked out for him.

He was also an incredible singer and would just prance around singing random songs.

He could be famous but he chose flowers over fame.

•°~

"Ben, I'm home" I shouted through the small apartment.

Ben came stumbling out of the bedroom and his eyes lit up when he saw me.

"I missed you so much" he sighed.

"I missed you t-" he cut me off by grabbing the pizza box in my hand.

He slammed the box down on the table and flipped the top open.

He grabbed a slice of pizza and shoved it down his throat.

"Jesus, slow down" I chuckled.

Ben shot me a death glare.

"Joseph, I haven't had pizza in months. Let me have my moment"

I sighed and grabbed a slice of pizza.

We both just sat down and turned on a movie.

Ben decided on Clueless of all things.

I snuggled into Ben's side and rested my head on his shoulder.

He kept rambling on about Paul Rudd and I ended up just zoning out.

•°~

"Really? Grease again?" I shook my head and looked at Ben.

He put up a finger to signal that he'd be right back.

He ran into our bedroom and changed into something.

He came back out wearing blue jeans, a leather jacket and a white t-shirt.

I pitched the bridge of my nose and shook my head again at him.

Once Greased Lighting came on he started absolutely freaking out.

He dramatically jumped up off the couch and stood in front of the coffee table like it was a car.

"WELL, THIS CAR IS AUTOMATIC!"

oh, here we go again.

"IT'S SYSTOMATIC!"

He took his jacket off and threw it behind him.

"IT'S HYDROMATIC!"

"WHY IT'S GREASED LIGHTING!" I finished the last line and jumped off the couch to stand next to him.

Once we made eye contact we both just burst out laughing and giggling like a couple of children.

I pushed him back down onto the couch and sat next to him again.

"You're such a nerd"

sorry I haven't updated for like a week or something I've been kinda busy and sad
