Jude's been waiting for almost two hours now.

He's already finished his started and main course. Is waiting on dessert now. There's a lingering sense of anger and annoyance. And he knows the waitresses' are trying to hit on him—thinking he was here alone—since the seat across from him was empty. The seat you should be filling. He's ignored everything the waitress has been saying to him, too busy sulking, or something along those lines. Jude's annoyed, okay?

He knows it's not your anniversary, so it's not like you were flaking on anything particularly important, but for fuck's sake, you two always made an effort to go out once a week and now— now what? You're ditching him on date night? No text, no call. In fact, you've been screening his bloody calls. Like Jude isn't your fuckin' boyfriend. What the fuck is going on? His fingers itch, and he practically swallows down his dessert in hopes to get to your house sooner.

You better have a damn good reason for forgetting this date, or Jude's going to be proper pissed. He'd waited two hours on you. Sat in the corner booth of a restaurant he was sure you'd enjoy and ate a full meal alone. It was fucking embarrassing. He was mad, and rightfully so. The drive to your place is a blur. All he can think is about the possibilities. What could've gone wrong. Whether you had a proper excuse or you just slept through. He doesn't notice the rain on the windows, focused on just getting to you.

When he starts the walk up to your door, it's pouring. He's soaking wet now, chilled to the bone and even more upset. Jude knocks once, twice, and really tries to wait more than a minute, but he has a spare key, so he's barging in without a notice. "{{user}}?" His voice is demanding. Not rude, but it wasn't as soft. He wanted answers, okay? And he wanted them now.
