2 (1)-Advice from the family

Garrett's pov

Ugh, why is it so bright? Ugh, my head hurts, it's too bright right now. Wait...this isn't my room? I'm naked too!

Omg, I didn't do what I think I did?! Suddenly, all flashbacks from last night come rolling back as fast as thunder. Oh, crap, I actually did it! Not only did I have a one-night stand, I did it without being drunk! Ugh, how the hell did I dare to do that? It's so unlike me. Where did I find that courage?

Wait, the guy from yesterday isn't there. Argh, I can still remember everything from last night. I kinda wish I had drank then, I wouldn't have remembered anything. I can picture the guy, his everything, us doing it. Argh, I have to put a stop to this! It makes me feel so embarrassed.

In reality, I went there because...I thought I could let myself be happy for a night...or I don't know...Ugh, it's so dumb what was I thinking? Did I seriously think I would find love there? That it would help me get back my love life? A gay bar..? I don't think so.

I guess I have a sex life now at least...Crap, I can't remember if he used protection. Hm, where is it...?

I try to search a bit but then I remember he did put one.

Hmm, the guy is surprisingly clean. If I remember well, he didn't strike me as the type to be that..neat...He washed everything. Woah, I'm not even naked! He must have put on some clothes on me.

You couldn't even tell we did it last night...

Speaking of the guy, where is he? I have to talk to him. I can't let him go like that. I can't let him go. Last night...was wow...how can I describe it? The best sex I had in a long time. His face, his body...his cock...No! Stop thinking of that! I have to thank him for letting me sleep here.

Thankfully, it's a Saturday or else I would've been screwed. Where is he? I don't see him. It's pretty silent... Crap, he didn't leave, did he? I have to see him again. I can't let such a guy leave me like that!

I must be crazy to think like that. I can already tell that most people would think it's pathetic. It's just sex! Sex!

I guess he really isn't here. He's not in the kitchen, not in his room nowhere else. I don't see his shoes either. Did he have to leave me all alone in his apartment?

That's kinda mean...I thought he was nice. He seemed nice enough when we were doing it... Argh, I can't stop thinking about it! I don't think I'll ever forget a guy like that!

At least my head doesn't hurt as much. I wonder why it hurts?

Anyway, now what should I do? I guess I have to leave. I did after all promise my parents I'll visit them today. Argh, but I can't visit them stinking like that!

He won't mind if I take a shower? I hope not! I fear what he would say if he saw me stealing his shower like that! Oh well, I have no choice! I stink badly! Besides as much as it hurts me, I might never see him again...so last night shouldn't matter right...?

-------

I feel refreshed. I didn't think I'd feel that refreshed after the night I had. Even if I left the apartment already, I can't help but think about the guy. Will I not see him again? He was so hot...Perfection...Yes, it's my first one-night stand in my entire life but I loved it! Especially with that sexy guy!

Seriously, I hadn't had any action in years but gosh, last night he made it feel special. I can't be the only one that felt it! Argh, now I desperately want to know who he is! Such a mystery!

I'll have to stop thinking about the guy for a bit through. I need to see my parents. I bought them flowers as I always do. My mom will mostly like it but as much as my dad jokes about it he likes it too.

Ah, I can't wait to see my parents. I do love them a lot. I can't wait to tell them about the guy I met last night!

-------

I knock on the door and immediately get greeted by the sight of my mom.

Mom!" I say happy to see her.

"Garrett!"

"Here this is for you." She takes the bouquet.

"Aw, how sweet of you. You're always the sweetest."

"Thanks"

"Hi, son. Got flowers for your mom again? Forgot about me?" My dad says playfully and we both switch our attention to him.

"They're for you too. You can share right?"

"Mm, we'll see about that." He fakes a pout.

"Garry!" My eyes light up when I notice another blond-haired girl coming right towards me.

"Manda! What are you doing here?!" She smiles as I am surprised by her presence.

"I was visiting them. I missed them. What about you? You seem happy."

"I promised I would visit them too."

"How sweet. We get to be a whole family again." Speaking of family, one person is missing.

"Where's your husband?" I say immediately concerned.

"Ah, forget about him coming. He has a meeting to attend." She says with a strained smile.

"On a Saturday?"

"I know right? That's what I told him too. My husband really is hardworking." She smiles proudly but I have a hard time believing his absence is normal

"I'm starting to think he's purposely trying to avoid you," I say bluntly surprising all of us.

"Garrett don't say that!"

"Sorry Mom," I say regretting it instantly.

"It's fine. He's allowed to say what he wants." My sister says.

The truth is that this is not the first time this has happened. I always visit my parents every Saturday and talk to them a lot during the week.

I'm close to them but Amanda's husband always seems to find a reason to not come to those family bonding times. He gets along well with my parents, so I don't get why he does this but that's why I'm not the greatest fan of him. He has to be with his wife all the time, especially for family concerns.

"Let's get into the kitchen. We can't stay in front of the door forever." He says sarcastically.

"Yeah, mind us being silly Dad."

"You two have always been like that. I'm used to it." He says smiling teasingly.

"Oh, really Dad?" My sister raises her eyebrow curious.

"Yes," He chuckles.

"So how has work been treating you, Garrett?" My mom asks.

"It's been fine. It's always the same thing. Nothing changed."

"Hm, why are you all so smiley then?" She smiles teasingly.

"Mom!"

"What? Am I right? I knew it! There's definitely something that's making you smile like that! Did you meet someone?!" She says badly curious.

"Garry tell us!" My sister says excitedly too.

They always want to know who caught my heart.

"Um, well I actually did," I admit shyly but still with a bright smile.

"Wait really? Who is it? What's his name? How did you two meet? Will we meet him?" My mom says excitedly

"Woah, calm down sweetheart. As much as we all want to hear who caught our son's heart, let him speak."

"Mm..but I want to know. I want to know who makes him smile like that."

"Don't be sad Mom. I'll tell you. It's not a lot to be serious about but I met a guy yesterday."

"Yesterday? Wow, he already makes you smile like that? He really must be the one!"

"Yeah, he's a lot. The problem is...that I don't know his name." I say embarrassed.

"How can you not know his name?!" My sister Amanda blows up stupefied.

"Um, you see...we had a one-night stand.." I say embarrassed.

"What? You did what?! Woah! Rett! Since when have you liked one-night stands?!" My sister says stunned.

"Shh, let him talk Amanda." My dad says firmly.

"Sorry..." She lowers her face.

"I went to a gay bar yesterday. He saw me and he started talking to me and then..."

"And then what?!"

"Mom!"

"Sorry, mind her."

"Thanks, Dad. Things escalated and we well...we did it."

"Did you really have sex with a guy you didn't know?"

"Amanda!" My dad shouts.

"Dad! Since when do you act like that? We all know you're curious about the guy too!"

"You girls are talking too much. He doesn't even get to say a word. How can he tell us anything?"

"Sorry, I'll let him talk."

As always my mom isn't guilty at all, only Amanda. They are too curious for their own good. At least it's better than not having a supportive family.

"Anyways, it was like heaven. He was so perfect! We fit perfectly together."

"Then, why don't you have his name? Did you drink?"

"No! I didn't. He just never told me. He left me all alone in his apartment." I say a bit frantic, wanting desperately to not cause a misunderstanding, yet a bit more glum at the memory of that guy's absence in the morning.

"How dare he do that to my kid?" My mom says offended.

"Yeah, that's so rude. Are you sure he's the one?" Amanda says doubtful and deeply concerned.

"Yes, I'm sure. He's everything I'm looking for. He has chestnut hair, those blue eyes...I tell you they are so pretty but they also look so hot, mysterious even. He's taller than me!" I say exicidelty remembering everything about that guy from last night.

"Woah! Sounds like you hit the jackpot. What are you waiting for?" My sister says suddenly enthusiastically and that catches me off guard.

"What?"

"You have to see him again! If he is as perfect as you say I want to meet him!" She says enthusiastically.

"Um...I don't have his number." They all facepalm upon hearing that.

"You have the time to fuck him but you didn't get his number. I get that you had fun, but how can you not get his number?! Here I thought my kids wouldn't be as dumb as to do that.." My dad says irritated and slightly disappointed tone.

"Dad...don't be like that. I'm sorry ok? I just...I had so much fun and we fell asleep. Then the next thing I know he isn't there anymore."

"Are you sure the guy wasn't only looking to have fun?" My mom asks deeply concerned.

"Well...I don't know.."

"Garrett! You can't start falling in love with him just because you had great sex together!"

It's been a while since I last saw my dad that mad...is he disappointed in me...? I don't like this..
