The Moon And The Sun

Ignorance Is Bliss

My night with Noah went pretty well.

Our shower experience was something

I'll never forget.

We ended up ordering late night takeout,

and watched a couple of movies.

It's now about three in the morning,

and Noah is currently knocked out

in a deep sleep.

It's hard for me to sleep sometimes

around this hour,

so I usually just watch videos on my phone

until I fall back asleep.

As I'm watching videos,

I get a text notification.

It's Sonny.

Can you come outside?

I really need to talk to you.

Please.

He's outside?

Crap-

Noah's here.

I hope he's not expecting to come inside,

because that's simply not going to happen.

"Sonny,

what are you doing here so late?"

I text him.

I just need to see you.

Please,

just come out.

Fine.

Noah's sleeping anyways.

I slowly start to get up from the bed,

being careful not to wake up Noah.

I then begin to tiptoe out of my room,

and down the stairs.

I open up the door,

and Sonny's standing right there.

I expected him to be in his car.

"What did you want to talk about?" I ask. "It's really late,

and I'm tired,"

"Can I come in?" he asks me.

That would be a very,

very bad idea.

"Why?

You can tell me what you need to tell me,

right here."

"Well why can't I just come in?

Are you that mad at me?" he asks me.

"No,

it's just late,

and I want to quickly get to bed."

Which isn't a lie,

but I also don't want Noah waking up,

and walking down here by accident.
