I woke up to a weight on my chest. Opening my eyes, the first thing saw was brown hair. Tyler was laying on top of me. I didn't know what to do, I didn't want to wake him up and have him flip out. Also, I can't move him and risk him waking up.

   Around twenty minutes later, my bladder decided I had to pee out of no where. "Shit." I whispered. Tyler shifted in his sleep. "Ty, you have to get up. I have to pee." I said in a normally. What happened next upset me. Tyler quick got off of me and the bed. The look on his face made me fell like shit. Terrified, that's the look that was on his face.

   After I was done in the bathroom I walked to the kitchen.
    Brendon was sitting on a stool leaning over a book and a cup of coffee. "What time is it?" He looked up at me then at the watch on his wrist. "It's six-thirty on a Wednesday." He said cheerfully before sighing, "do you want me to get them up?" I shook my head. "No I will, could you start breakfast and pour me a cup of coffee?" He smiled. "I'll get right in that."

   I approached Logan's door last. Not wanting to get insulted first thing in the morning. I knocked twice. "Dad?" I heard her whisper. I bit my tongue before answering. "No... it's Josh. Please get up and get ready. Br- you're Dad is making breakfast so hurry up." I waited for a response but didn't get one. I nodded to myself before walking away. Just have to deal with this for a little longer.

   I re-entered the kitchen. Anthony and Rowan were sitting down eating. In front of my stop was an mug and a plate with eggs, bacon, and toast. Brendon chuckled. "I thought that you'd be hungry." I smiled. "Thank you." I whispered walking over to my chair. I sat down just as Gabe walked in. Anthony and I watched as he walked over a sat down. Brendon walked over and sat down a plate. "Thank you, Dad." I smiled and watched as Brendon ruffled Gabe's hair. It didn't bother me that he called him "Dad" cause he still calls me it. Rowan looked up from her bowl. "Are you taking us to school?" I shook my head. "No, Veronica is picking you up," I looked at Anthony, "I'm not going to be at work either." He nodded. Gabe sighed. "Will you bring us tomorrow, Dad?" I smiled as I nodded. I was going to reply but I stopped. Logan walked into the room, Tyler was right behind her. She walked over and sat down. Tyler just stood in the doorway. "Do you want eggs?" B asked Logan, who shook her head in response. "No, I'll eat at school, Dad." B looked at me and rolled his eyes. He then looked at Tyler. "You want eggs?" I watched as sadness flashed in my husbands eyes.

"No, thank you. I- I'm not hungry." Brendon nodded. Tyler just watched us from the door way. You could tell he didn't know what to do.

   About five hours later. Tyler and I were sitting in the living room home alone. Watching some movie on TV. I looked at Tyler to see he was looking at me. When our eyes met he looked away. "Sorry, it's just so weird seeing you again. I honestly thought you'd move on from me." I shook me head. "I don't think I even tried, I knew you were out there and that stopped me." I told him. It was true, I haven't been with anyone the whole time he was gone.

    "How did you react when you found out Brendon was alive?" I looked at the floor. I had to be careful about what I say, I couldn't tell him. "I was mad." My answer was simple and short. He nodded. "How long have you known?" I looked up as him wide-eyed. My mouth opened but I couldn't make the words come out.

  "Why didn't you tell me he was alive all that time?" He sounded heart broken. Well, more then normal. "I didn't want you to leave me." I whispered making him shake his head in response. "It seems like no matter what, jealousy is your default setting." He whispered before walking away. He was right. If it wasn't, if I just told him that Brendon was alive... he wouldn't have gone missing.
