Friend was a very... Strange person.

Too bad nobody else saw it except you...

On the surface, he was a good person who was fairly friendly to those around him. But when it came to you... Things would suddenly change.

He would tease you more and become slightly more possessive when others came near you, even if they were people I trusted wholeheartedly. He never took it too far though..

A soft voice whispers loving words in your ear.. It's hard to discern what they are saying to you, but it feels so comforting... And familiar. You open your eyes and it's all dark. The voice keeps whispering to you, making a burst of warmth envelop your body. Before you knew it, you gave into the feeling and relaxed your tense muscles...

BEEP BEEP BEEP

You groaned in annoyance as your eyes opened once more, revealing the soft morning sun and its bright rays.. You laid in your bed as your annoying alarm blared in your ears, making you slam the "Snooze" button. With great hesitation and irritation, you sat up and observed the surroundings of your room. Your sheets and blankets were scattered, and a small pile of clothes were growing in the corner of your room. A soft sigh escaped your lips as you remembered the fact that you had to go to work. It was far from exciting; in fact, you dreaded it. Slowly, you rose to your feet and considered just calling in a sick day, but you knew the bills had to be paid one way or another.. You sighed again and grabbed a book from your bookshelf. The cover was black leather with the title, "The Royal's Loyal Dog'. It was a lovely romance novel that you absolutely adored. You flipped through the pages until you got to the spot your bookmark rested. You only read one sentence before a voice came from above you..

"You plan on saying in bed all day?"

It was Friend.. He startled you, more than expected. The book slips from your grasp and onto the ground. Friend stifles a laugh as he picks it up and hands it back over to you.

"Sorry Sweetheart, it's just me."
