A week has gone by, Lana is out of the hospital and recovering at home while Chauncey has gone back to Europe after the police ruled his car was just "at the wrong place at the wrong time". One even mentioned it might have just been because it was a Hummer, but we're in the clear because Chauncey wouldn't even think we could have done it. Two points for us

"Babe?" Anissa rolls her body over to face me, placing her head on my chest

"Hmm?" I lean down to kiss her forehead

"What's on your mind? You look so serious"

"Nothing, I'm just thinking" I shrug, playing with a few strands of her thick curly hair

"Care to share?"

"I'm just thinking about how it's been 2 weeks since the wreck, one since Lana got out of the hospital, and almost a week and a half of us making us official" I leave out the illegal related thoughts, knowing she might not want to know them

"It has been a week, huh? Damn" she smiles, her eyes rolling back as I play through the rest of her hair

"Umhm" I nod, realizing that she has spent every other day here in my bed for the past week, and we haven't really done anything but sleep and work this whole time, "What do you want to do for the day?"

"Well, we both have the day off so I think we should stay in bed and cuddle while we watch crime television" Anissa runs her hand across my arm that's playing with her hair, causing a shock through my arm. It's electric! The song comes to mind as she continues to run her hand across my arm. I swear she awakens a feeling in me that I've never felt before, but it scares me. It scares me that I'm finally opening up after 23 years of being single.

"That sounds like an idea, then we can order in and just lay here"

Perfect date kind of day where neither one of us has to work. Plus? I get to have her all to myself for the day "Exactly, I like where your thinking is"

"I think I have muffins in the kitchen to eat for breakfast"

"Alright, I'm up for a muffin" she sits up, hopping off the bed and onto her feet

Ping! My phone lights up, showing Lana's name across the screen

-Hey, are you busy today? I'm bored and need company-

Am I busy? No. Do I want to put clothes on to go see Lana? Probably not. Do I even want to mention this to Anissa right now since we've already made plans? Nooooot really.... but is it selfish to think this way? Probably so.

-Where's Jane today?- I reply

"Hey babe?! Do you want a honey blueberry muffin?" Anissa calls from the bottom of the steps

"That's fine! Can you heat it for me?"

"I can do that"

Ping!

-She has family in town and can't stop by-

Damn it.

-I'll get back to you-

"Who's that?" Anissa asks from the doorway, holding our muffins and orange juice on a small tray

"Lana, she's bored and wants company, but I told her I'd get back to her" I put my phone back on my nightstand

"Where's Jane?" Anissa walks over, sitting down next to me on the bed and placing the tray on her lap

"I asked the same question, but she has family in town and can't stop by"

"Oh okay" Anissa's brow furrows for a split second

"What?" I ask, taking a muffin off the tray and taking a bite of it
