SUFI - 'Have You Got It In You?' by Imogen Heap

-~-~-

Adam heard the doorbell ring, which made his muscles tense. He looked down at his lap, and saw his hand stroking Darla's hair, softly and calmly. He gently picked up Darla's head and set it on the couch, while he stood up and groggily walked towards the door. Just as the doorbell rang again, Adam opened it, and there stood Mitch, his light brown hair was tangled as always, and his mouth formed a sympathetic smile as his light brown eyes looked straight at Adam, "Hi Adam, long time no see."

Adam rolled his eyes playfully and he gave Mitch a small smirk, "Yeah yeah, whatever. Come in."

Mitch stepped inside, looking at his surroundings and studying them closely. He looked at Adam, "Nice place you've got here."

"Mitch."

"What?"

"Shut up."

Mitch started chuckling and he looked at Adam while raising an eyebrow, "Hey, I'm just saying."

"Well then don't be sarcastic about it." Adam said, biting his lip.

"I wasn't being sarcastic, but now that I think about it." Mitch stated, looking around once more. "Maybe I should have thought twice about what I said, if you thought I was going to be sarcastic about it."

"I guess we should start talking, if that's why you're here." Adam said, changing the subject.

"Then, let's talk somewhere else, we wouldn't want to wake up Darla, now would we?" Mitch said, getting ahold of Adam's arm and leading him to his own kitchen.

It surprised Adam, but he kept quiet as Mitch let go of his arm. Adam slowly got a chair and sat down, putting his hands together and looking at Mitch again.

"So," Adam began, "Why'd you come?"

Mitch licked his lips and he answered, "My girlfriend, Rose."

Adam rolled his eyes and looked at Mitch, "Seriously? End it there Mitch come on. We've told you this before. Leave her. I don't care how much I have to repeat it and I don't care how much the whole world has to repeat it. Leave. Her."

Mitch closed his eyes, trying to regain his patience, "Adam, that isn't the only problem. I just can't, I don't know why, but I can't. No matter how much we fight no matter how much I hate her, I just can't bring myself to do it."

"Well then, you're going to have to do it some time, because if I were you, I'd be done with her bullshit." Adam said, his gaze shifting from anger to seriousness.

"Adam, what about Samantha? What the hell will we do? Who'll have custody of her-"

"Mitch, that problem may be solved someday in the future." Adam explained. "Just, think about what might happen if you don't leave her. Mitch, someone might get hurt, maybe you'll get hurt, or Rose, or even Samantha for that matter."

"Adam I, I can't bring myself to do it. Maybe you can do it? Or someone else can do it for me? Adam, I don't even know anymore."

Adam frowned at Mitch, "Mitch, nobody else can fix this problem.

"Only you can."
