Ridiculous Goldfish

The following morning, Gray woke up and the sheets beside him were empty. He was used to being walked out on in the middle of the night but never before had he been struck by such panic.

She said she was going to stay! How dare she toy with him like that when he had actually believed her?

Barely managing to put on a pair of pants, he rushed out to the living room and relaxed instantly when he saw Mandy. She was wearing one of his shirts and her wet hair dripped onto the tile floor as she rifled through his kitchen cupboards.

Mandy looked up and smiled when she heard him approach. "Morning! You really need to get some groceries. I was going to make you breakfast but there is literally only a banana and some yogurt in your fridge. That's pretty sad, Mikey."

Gray seized her in a hug, his heart still pounding. "We can go grocery shopping later. You still need to help me pick out a houseplant."
