Chapter 13 

The lights dimmed as Megan entered the room. I flopped on my bed watching her frown. I smiled at her and only got back yet another frown. I sighed and rubbed my eyes. It seemed like everyone was in a bad mood, including me. I’ve been lucky I wasn’t having wet dreams about Jake any more. Well I was trying really hard not to. I closed my eyes cursing myself for even thinking it. 

“So what’s wrong?” I asked finally. Megan plopped next to me as I drew the sheets up to my knees. She snuggled in next to me and cried. I gasped as I touched her cheeks. There were tears streaming down her perfect bone structure. She sniffled into my sheets and tried to calm down but only to burst out in yet another cry. 

“Meg? What’s wrong? “ I asked again this time a bit more concerned. I’ve only seen Megan cry once and that was when her dog FuFu died because she ran over him by mistake. 

“I don’t know!” she sobbed wiping her eyes. I looked up at the clock hung over my computer table. I only had one hour to get ready and make it in time to the office. Something told me I was going to be late.

“Megan! You can’t just cry over nothing.” I said picking her face up.

“Yes I can.” she said childishly. I muttered a giggle and smiled.

“So what’s bothering you?” I asked. She looked up her mascara flowed down her face with the stream of salt water.

“Duncan…”she started to say and I felt my back bone stiffened. I rolled up my sleeves and pushed her away. I got my butt off the bed and fixed my hair in front of the mirror. 

“What are you doing?” she asked. I turned towards her in surprise.

“I can’t look like a retard when I get arrested for busting someone’s ass! “I replied. Megan fell back on the bed laughing. I smiled feeling her giddiness rub off on me. 

“Oh god! Kim, he didn’t do any thing.” she said smiling but then it was gone. Her lips were back in to a thin grim line.

“Then what?” I asked sitting down next to her.

“He didn’t call me after our lunch date.” Megan said biting her lips. I smacked the back of her neck and stood up.

“You’re going to get me fired because Duncan didn’t call you.” I said pulling out a clean skirt and a fresh collared shirt. Megan stood up her hair nestled behind her ears and tied carefully into a bun.

“It’s serious! Kim, it’s been so long since he called!” Megan whined. Kim glanced at Megan and coughed. 

“It has been twelve hours since you’ve seen him Meg. Maybe he’s out nailing another girl, or maybe just maybe-Listen to this, I know it’s a crazy idea but maybe he’s sleeping!” I said shaking her shoulders. Megan’s lips formed an “o”. I shook my head and sighed. 

“I didn’t think about that.” Megan said walking out the room tapping her chin with her index finger. I stared after her a smile puling the corners of my lips. Megan is falling hard. Real hard. I laughed in the empty room and smiled at myself in the mirror.

The smile soon disappeared when I picked up my new cell phone from the table. I unplugged the charger and stared at the fifty missed calls. I sighed and threw it on the bed. What possibly could he say after the way he behaved yesterday? What reason could he have to call me fifty times in the night after lying to me? I grunted at myself and groaned as I pushed my two legs in to the skirt.
