“Morning, sleepy head.”

I turn to my right, rubbing my half-closed eyes. Seeing Carson smiling sweetly at me, I can’t help but smile back.

And so begins my typical day.

I shower together with Carson, scrubbing each other’s backs. After choosing my outfit for the day and his as well, we dress quickly and start to make our favorite breakfast, coffee and toast. We munch on the crispy toast and tease each other about how bad the other’s cooking skills are. To be honest, we both suck at it. Then, we decide on who washes the dishes using a simple game of rock, paper, scissors.

Soon, it’s time to get out into the world. We walk the same route each day, hand in hand. The grocery shop owner, Bri, waves to us and tosses us each a loaf of bread. Turning left at the next corner, we pass by a small café and the waiter Dan nods to us curtly. Another ten meters away, Allie, my best friend shouts to me and runs to my side, jabbering away about how the boy next door had smiled at her again.

Together, we walk down the winding road along with Allie, Bri, and Dan. We reach a grey three-story tall building and make our way to the top floor. At the receptionist desk, I introduce myself and the lady leads us to the room situated at the end of the hallway.

The five of us enter the room and take our respective places; me and Carson sit on the couch, Allie takes her place on the chair, Bri and Dan lean against the wall. The woman seated behind a desk clears her throat and greets me with a simple “Good morning, how have you been doing today?”

I reply as usual that my day with Carson has been going fine but the woman obviously doesn’t believe my words for she shakes her head and says quietly, “They aren’t here. Carson’s not here.”

I frown and look at Carson who simply shrugs.

“No, they’re here alright.”

They’re here.
I wrote this a while ago and now, I can't remember what caused me to write it. ;P
