" hey baby" mase said , joining me on the sofa
" hey mase" I said , running my hands through his hair as he rest his head on my chest .
" listen , I invited some of the lads over to play the new fifa , is that ok ?" Mason said, upsetting me a tad because he'd only just got home from an international break with the boys but i nod my head in agreement all the same .
" of course , what time will they be here ? I'll go shopping."
" probs about half hour , and thanks baby , you really don't need to though." He said tilting his head to look up at me.
" no , really don't worry . I need to go anyways and we definitely don't have enough beer in for half the team." I giggle
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I push the front door open , with my hands full of shopping bags . I can hear the faint chatter of the boys in the lounge so I decide to quickly say hello before sorting the shopping.
Just as I near the room however , the boys begin to speak , clearly unaware of my return .
" so mase , how's things with y/n ?" By the sounds of it Dec asks .
" good , good."
" jeez lad , could sound a bit more enthusiastic." Exactly Jesse , exactly .
" nah it's just that she's always so fucking clingy after I get back from a break . Like it was cute at first now it's just annoying ."
And just like that I swear I felt my heart shatter . I'd missed him more than anything whilst he was away , and it broke me to know he doesn't feel the same .
" lay of man , she just missed you"
I hear Marcus say as I decide against going in to greet the boys and instead go straight to the bathroom to cry . It's pathetic really , he doesn't deserve my tears but I just can't hold back .
I'm quick to pull myself together though, remembering the shopping on the counter that still needs to be sorted. I didn't want mason to know I'd overheard , instead I have a plan to distance myself from him and see how he likes it .
As I began putting the shopping away I felt his hands snake around my waist before he kissed me cheek. Pretty affectionate for someone who finds me annoying.
" hey baby , I didn't hear you come in . Thanks for going shopping."
" your welcome." I say bluntly
" was everything ok at the shop , not too busy ?" He says , clearly picking up on my annoyance.
" it was fine ."
"Um okay , ugh let's go and say hi to everyone." He says walking back towards the lounge .
I walk in slightly after him and am greeted by hellos all round . I look towards mason who was patting the empty spot next to him , silently asking me to sit there . But I don't , instead I watch his face drop as I go to sit in between Jesse and Marcus instead.
" hey y/n , you okay ?" Marcus whispered in my ear as I snuggled into him .
" I'm fine m , don't worry." I say
I'm very close to both him and Jesse so I'm glad they are here , well until they all go home and I have to deal with mason alone .
" babe , are you not going to sit over here ?" Mason asks , looking hurt .
" no I'm fine over here." I say , letting an awkward silence fall over the room .
" so what we watching ?" Jesse says , getting everyone chatting again .
Later on , once everyone has left , mason is clearing up the living room whilst I make us both a cuppa .
" mase , I'm going to bed."
" oh , you're not going to wait for me ?" He asks , knowing we always go to bed together .
" no , I'm tired." I say before heading upstairs.
Part of me feels awful for being so cold towards the man I love . But he clearly wants space and this is how he's going to get it .
I eventually feel the bed dip as he climbs in . and like every night he reaches for me to cuddle , But I don't let him , instead I roll out of his grip claiming I'm 'to hot' and lay as far from his as possible.
This type of behaviour carry's on for days . Days of me being cold . Days of mason being clueless. Before eventually, he confronts me as I make our dinner .
"Right I have had enough" he says storming into the kitchen .
" enough ? Enough of what?"
" this . You have treated me like shit the past couple days . I mean ,You haven't even kissed me . And I want to know why ." He says growing agitated.
" mason , I'm just giving you space"
" space ? Why the fuck do I need space y/n ?"
" I don't know , you tell me ." I say .
" what ? What are you talking about ? "
"Hmm let's see , do the words ' clingy and annoying' ring any kind of bells ?" I say
I watch as masons face drops in realisation.
" baby no , I didn't mean a word of that"
" it felt like you meant it mason . Do you realise how hard it is when you go away for weeks at a time ?"
" yeah baby I do , I don't know why I said that. I was just annoyed because I lost at fifa and it put me in a bad mood , I know it's not an excuse to talk shit about you but I never meant it ."
" it's not even what you said that hurt the most , it's the fact that you clearly don't miss me, like I miss you when you're away ." I say beginning to cry .
" no darling, please don't cry . It hurts me more than anything when I can't see you , really . Ask any of the boys I mope around the whole time."
" whatever mason."
" no , you saw how upset it made me when you didn't speak to me for two days , If anything that shows you that I can't cope without you , okay baby ? Please , please just forgive me . I'm so fucking sorry ."
And just like that , I give in . As much as I wish it wasn't true , I have missed him .
" I love you mason , but don't ever speak about me like that again."
" never baby , never"
