It had been two weeks and I hadn't had the first phone call or message. I should have known not to get my hopes up. But I had and it hurt.

I groaned as the phone rang.

"Hello." I grumbled into the phone and looked at the alarm clock. It was 15 minutes after 3. "Who ever this is do you realize it is 3:15 in the morning."

"Yeah and I'm sorry, but this is the first free time I've had and I wanted to call you." I heard the voice and was instantly awake.

"Nick?" I sat up in bed.

"Yeah. How ya doing?"

"I'm good. You? What are you doing that's keeping you so busy that you have to call me at 3 in the morning."

"Well it's a long story I'll tell you about it later." I could tell he was avoiding answering me so I let it go for the time being.

We talked for a good hour, I didn't mention Aj and neither did he. I had so many questions running through my head.

"Well sweetie I'm going to let ya go back to sleep and I'm going to try and get some myself."

"Okay," I didn't want to sound disappointed.

"I'll talk to you soon okay?"

"Okay bye Nick." I hung up and phone and felt worse than I did before his call.
