All he wanted was to get home and lay in bed, but when he arrived at the shared flat, and entered his bedroom, he found a girl laying in his bed.
He furrowed his brows, but didn't speak. Jake let his bag down on the floor and left again, knocking at his best friend's bedroom door.
"Kyle?" He called out, then entered. He wasn't angry, but he wasn't too happy looking either. Right away, he put his hands up in surrender.
"Listen, I know, but I need a favor," he began, yet Jake cut him off.
"Who is she and what is she doing in my fucking bed?"
Kyle sighed, rubbing his face, "I need a favor." The look in his eyes told him he was serious about this. "She's not doing great. Mentally. I brought her here to she's not alone tonight. All you have to do is share the bed, okay?"
"Why would I do that?! I don't even know her!" Jake snapped back loudly, but Kyle tried hid best to soothe him.
"You sleep around so often with women! Just play pretend! God, you only have to touch her a bit, like caress. Just make sure she's asleep. She just needs to sleep this off!"
"And why don't you?" Jake hisses.
"Because my girlfriend is here and she's jealous as fuck," Kyle explained. Right, Alice has always been jealous of other women. "She's a friend of mine, okay? In the morning I'll take over. All you have to do is share the bed with her and let her fall asleep."
Kyle looked almost pleadingly at his best friend. Jake let his teeth grind, but then nodded. He has no problem with sleeping next to a stranger girl, hell, he's a player, he sleeps with strangers often, what bothered him was the fact that he has to play baby sitter right now when he's so tired.
Eventually though, he sighed.
"Fine," Jake walked back into his bedroom, taking off his jacket and then let himself slump onto the mattress. He glances over at you, how you're curled up and paying some stupid game on your phone. Then reached out and started petting your head, letting his fingers run through your hair.
"You okay there?" His voice sounded softer, much calmer than the way he talked to Kyle before.
