Chapter 12

I fell asleep on the couch with Simon and wake up to find him staring at me. "Morning," I say and rub my face. "Morning," he says and I smile. His eyes are still puffy and red. Did he cry again? "Do you want something to wear?" he asks and I look confused at him.

I look down and see I am only wearing a sleep shirt and panties. I turn red and say, "Yeah, that would be good..." He stands up and soon comes back with sweatpants and a pullover. "Here," he says and I put it on. "How have you slept?" I ask worriedly. "Not so good," he says. At least he didn't lie to me.

"I can stay with you for a while if you want me to," I say and he just nods his head. "Can you come with me to the funeral?" he asks and I look at him surprised. "Of course. You just need to tell me when and where," I say and he looks to the ground. "I don't know it yet... I just wanted to make sure I am not alone because I couldn't go through it alone..." he says and his weak side shows.

"Simon... You will never be alone. I will always be there for you. You will always be a part of my life and I will always be a part of yours. I am pregnant with your child and we are still married. If you haven't noticed yet... We are stuck with each other," I say and smile at him widely.

"Thank you... I needed to hear that," he says and I smile. "I know," I say and hug him close before I slowly stand up. "Sow how do you feel about pancakes for breakfast?" I ask him and make my way into his kitchen.

"Nah... Too sweet," he says and I laugh. "You could put ham and cheese on them...." I say and he just looks at me like 'You know exactly what I meant'. I laugh warmly and he comes into the kitchen. "What do you think about Starbucks?" he asks me and I nod my head slowly. "Starbucks is fine with me as long as my pregnant ass doesn't have to leave the house," I say and he laughs.

"So I guess you send me out into the fight..." he says and I nod, laughing. "Of course... I am too pregnant to handle the paparazzi on my own," I say and he shakes his head. "Wait until that baby is out of you... You will never hear the end of it," he says and grabs his keys.

"I'll be right back," he says and disappears through the front door.

...

"You know I need to ask you something," he says and I take a sip of my caramel frappochino. "Then ask," I say and smile at him. "I know it's like the worst time possible, but I wanted to ask if you'd like to be a part of Britain's Got Talent... I just don't want to ask anybody else..." he says and I nod my head slowly.

"I'd like that," I say and he smiles at me. "Thank you so much for doing this for me! So we get to spend even more time together," he says and I roll my eyes. "I don't know if that's a good or bad thing..." I say and he hits my arm playfully.

"Hey I am not that bad," he says and I shake my head, laughing. "No, you really aren't," I say and smile at him sweetly. "So how is it going?" he asks me and I sigh. "You know, Phil is as annoying as always, he actually scared me out of bed yesterday... Evan is the best best friend you could imagine and Theo is just the biggest idiot on earth," I say and he smiles sadly.

"So Evan is just your best friend?" he asks me and I laugh softly. "I see, we are jealous, aren't we?" I ask and he shakes his head. "I am not jealous!" he says and I shake my head, laughing. "Nooo, you are so not jealous..." I say and he huffs.

"I would never be jealous... He doesn't even look good," he says and I roll my eyes. "You are so jealous Simon, but you don't need to, because we are just friends," I say and he sighs. "Good," he says and I raise my eyebrows.

"So you admit that you are jealous?" I ask and he shakes his head. "I did not say that!" he says and I shake my head. "Nooo, never," I say and he sighs again, this time defeated. "But don't worry I am not looking for a boyfriend so there won't be any problems..." I say and he looks at me lovingly.

"I love you, Amanda," he says and purs salt into the wound. "I love you, too Simon," I say and look at my coffee. "But we need time," I say and he looks at me sadly. "Then let me take you out for a date... Nothing serious, just a date," he says and I smile.

"I think we can do that," I say and he grins like the cheshire cat. "This evening at seven? I'll pick you up," he says and I nod my head. "Then you just need to drive me home so I can get ready," I say and he nods. 

"We are going out on a date..." I say and shake my head in disbelief... I never thought I would agree to that so early but I just miss him so damn much.
