2391 (Continued) If he did bring someone else with him, she left...I heard him walk into the room, not stumbling, and he didn't turn and walk out after seeing me either. I heard the shower start, and then stop. I could smell him getting closer, I opened my eyes, and he was looking down at me, a smile on his face.
Did I fall asleep? I asked in a groggy voice. He lifted me, set me in a chair, and pulled the covers back on the bed, I still wasn't quite aware that I wasn't dreaming. He lifted me again, and placed me back on the bed under the sheets, and blankets. I curled right up next to him, and slept again. When I woke, he was in bed next to me, already awake, and watching me...I saw him as though for the first time, not remembering his homecoming.
You're back! and then, Oh gosh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to fall asleep in your bed, I just...he interrupted me with "It's ok, I'm glad you're here." We made breakfast together, and after eating, I had to get ready for work. I took a shower, got dressed and ready to go, I didn't know if I should come back to him tonight, or wait for him to call, so I decided that I would leave him my Cell phone number, and I told him if he needed anything, he should call me, I'd be out of work at 6pm.
Work was...well how fun can it be working with stupid people. These people didn't know how to place product, how to present product, hell they didn't even know how to use the cash register. I would have to work extra hard today just to fix everything the people had screwed up while I wasn't there. I looked at them clumsily folding sweaters, and decided that today, I was going to prove exactly how much I knew about retail environments. I stopped the girls, and demanded that they figure it out the right way. Then I organized them, and made them help me move things around. My supervisor came out from her office, and stood there watching. She had given up on them long ago, but I wasn't about to. I had an energy flowing through me, that I had almost forgotten. By lunch I had moved every single garment to a new home. When it was time to go home, there had actually been an increase in customers.
I was tired, and I'd have to go back home and meet mom and dad now. The question was, how in the heck was I going to cover up this key around my neck?
When mom and dad (Char and Rudy to everyone else) got home and asked about it, I just bragged about my new necklace, it would be the next "cool" thing soon. I stayed for dinner, and decided that I would visit the natural foods shop, I had noticed Eagle was running low on some things, and my parents needed to eat healthier too.
I picked up some fruit and veggies, a juicer for dad, and a recipe book as well. When I left there, I saw a little shop around the corner, a book store. I went in for a better look. I picked up a book, filled with photographs; looking at them, I saw the most wonderful photographs of the original hollywood movie stars...I had to have it. I asked them to wrap it for me, after I had written a note on the inside cover. I went over to give it to Eagle, I walked in (he gave me the key remember!) said hello to the woman he was entertaining at the time, she asked me if I didn't know how to knock, and I explained to her that I had a key. I went into the kitchen with the book and the food I had brought, said hello to Eagle with a kiss, put the food away... I pulled the last thing out of my bag, and set in on the counter near him, so that he would see it. I told him to open it, I could take over cutting up the vegetables. He opened it, and I watched his eyes light up. He thanked me for it, and I told him not to forget his friend in the other room. I gave him a kiss, telling him I was going to go grab my stuff from earlier, get my duffel bag out of his way. I left him to finish making dinner, and grabbed my things from where ever I could remember leaving something. I stuffed everything in my bag, and when I passed his guest again, she looked as though she was about to leave. I walked over to her, and let her know that I was just picking up my things, I had been watching the house for him while he was gone.. I walked through the kitchen on my way out, and told him to call me when it was safe for me to come back. I gave him a kiss that he couldn't forget, and left. I was in a good mood.
