she opened her eyes.
midnight.
it could only be one person. "hello?" she answered. loud music streamed through the reciever, startling her. "hey, babe!", the voice at the other end shouted. babe. when had he started calling her that? hed been doing it for a while now, but she couldnt remember exactly when it had started.
she thought back a couple months when her brother had said how much he hated it when he called her babe. or sweetheart. or anything of that nature. she smiled.
"hey."
he began talking and she listened. loving just to hear the sound of his voice. it never really mattered what he was talking about. his voice seemed to soothe her. to make her feel better. he was, after all, the only one left who was there for her. the only one left who called her everyday. just knowing that he was on the phone with her was enough to make her smile sometimes. he didnt even have to say anything.
being with him was even better. he would come over and they would lay on the couch together and watch movies. those were some of the only times lately that she could remember being truly happy. lately she had been feeling so low. he was the only one she had to confide in. her best friend had deserted her, leaving her with no other really close friends. then he came along. she had known him this whole time but it wasnt until right before her best friend deserted her that they became so close. he came riding in like a knight, scooped her up and took her far away from all her problems.
the only problem was, when he wasnt around she wasnt even half as happy. it was almost like he was her only light in a darkened world. when he went away she was left out in the dark. alone and scared.
"you there?", he asked.
"yeah. sorry. im here. so what did you say?" she replied.
"i said, youre beautiful."
she closed her eyes as her problems disappeared.
