Sleepover

Once Lucy returned to the living room, she sat on the couch opposite Tom, and he raised a questioning brow.

"What?" She asked when she noticed the way he was staring at her.

"I guess I'm going to have to teach you a lot of things when it comes to relationships. You can't sit that far away from your man," Tom said, patting the spot next to him for her to join him.

"If I wanted to learn about relationships you don't think I will go to someone whose relationships actually work?" Lucy muttered under her breath, loud enough for Tom to know she said something, but low enough for him not to hear what she had said. 

"Did you say something?" Tom asked, and Lucy shook her head. 

"I just think we don't need to get too close to each other since we both know it's not real," Lucy said with a shrug.

"I said it's real but temporary," Tom corrected.
