Separation Anxiety

[Alexandra Lawson]

Alex exhaled a puff of hair, blowing a stray strand of red hair from her face.  The hours were ticking by achingly slow since Ezra Cooper had left.  He'd gone off with the students from Bellefonte on some camping trip early the morning before and she was starting to doubt whether she'd make it through the entire 4 day weekend by herself with nothing to do.  Even though she promised herself she wouldn't, Alex broke down and went scrambling for her phone to tap out a quick message.

To:  Ezra
From: Alex

10:05 AM: When are you coming home again?

[Ezra Cooper]

It was so easy to get caught up with everything when you're doing something you really enjoy. Being outdoors was something that Ezra thrived at. If he were a Sim, he would get moodlets up the wazoo from this camping trip.

But of course, even with being exhausted by day's end, Ezra still wondered what his girlfriend was doing. He wondered if he could actually spend four whole days without actually communicating with her.

Luckily, he didn't have to think further. When he got back from his hike with a few students, his phone lit up, indicating that he had a message.

Practically diving for it and rolling on to his bed, he checked his phone and a huge grin set on his sweaty face.

To: Babesy

Not soon enough. Three more days with people who aren't you. How're you holding up the fort?

[Alexandra Lawson]

Alex's face lit up as her phone buzzed. Her eyes gleamed brightly as she swiped the display to bring up Ezra's reply message. She let out a low sigh, though, as knowing he was on the other end, holding his phone much in the same way as she was, just brought out more of the anxiety she felt from being alone for the weekend.  She hated feeling this way and she'd never had a problem with it before but now, since the attack, she'd grown noticeably more high strung.

I'm ok.  I think I'm going to make Liz or Addie spend the weekend with me.  How are things out there?  Hope you've been bored and no one got hurt.

[Ezra Cooper]

I've actually been doing great! We've been knee deep in activities since we set up camp. There are some odd ducks who don't care for camping so that sucks but overall this is a good camping trip and being outside is amazing ^-^

Hope you have some fun with the girls too. Not too much fun. Although if you do get into stuff with them, film it ;) Kidding! Not really 8D

Ezra snorted at himself as he hit the send button. As much as he was enjoying himself here, he really did wish he was with Alex.

[Alexandra Lawson]

Alex let out a laugh, bringing a hand up to cup over her mouth as she read Ezra's message.  She'd expected nothing less from him.

Better you're busy for that and not other things, right?


If we filmed it we couldn't let you use your imagination to drive you crazy now, could we?  

[Ezra Cooper]

Ezra was so glad his bunkmate was nowhere in sight as he giggled through the message before clearing his throat.

...what are you implying

...knew I should've installed the security cameras

...KIDDING not really. The girls better not have any funny ideas about my girl. You can tell them that.

Maybe not Liz. She might actually hurt me for threatening her.

[Alexandra Lawson]

Please.  Like you have to worry about that.  Do you really have such little faith in me to behave myself when you're not around?  Don't make me have to punish you when you get back.

[Ezra Cooper]

...is that a promise?

Also, you better be kidding me about having faith in you, missy

I just don't trust the people who get close to you *narrows eyes* 
Must be wary of errbadeh eyeing my girl

[Alexandra Lawson]

Promise.  


Of course I'm kidding, geez.


You don't need to worry.  There weren't all that many people eyeing me before you came along and probably less now.  Relax, k?

[Ezra Cooper]

awwyiss

Yea you best know it, son

Ahahah I'm totes relaxed. I mean I'm sweating buckets from the hike but I ain't scurred. You and me, Babesy

[Alexandra Lawson]

That's what you get for going outside.

That reminds me we should go hiking or camping when it warms up.
