Vera struggled to sleep next to her girlfriend, she let Zasha sleep in the bed alone as Vera sat on the top of the stairs. She looked down at the closed front door.

Silence ran through the house; the lights were all off.

Vera sat in her house, on top of the stairs in the dark.

She silently rose to her feet and attempted to quietly go down the stairs, she pulled open the front door and stepped out into the darkness.

Vera ignored the gravel digging into her bare feet as she walked up to Tommy's house. She didn't care what time it was as she banged on his front door.

She wasn't going to shout out his name, she already knew her knocking was loud enough.

The porch light flicked on before the door opened.

Tommy stood shirtless and in a pair of long pants, his usually gelled back black hair was now scruffy from bed hair "What?" He sleepily spat.

"I just have a question."

"Are you serious, Vera!? It's midnight. Can't you ask in the morning." He wasn't surprised to see Vera still in her white shirt and black pants.

"No." Vera didn't care what time it was, she needed her answers now "I want you to answer me truthfully."

Tommy yawned as he attempted to listen.

"Are you trying to take over from me?" Vera asked.

Tommy rested his body against the doorframe "Are you serious, Vera?"

"Are you trying to take over from me?" She repeated her question.

"This could've been a tomorrow question."

"Tomathon, yes or no." She started to grit her teeth.

"No." Tommy reached for his door.

Vera pressed her hand against his door "Than why are you doing this?"

"Doing what?" He let go of his door.

Vera dropped her hand back by her side "Acting like your taking over."

"V, this really isn't a topic for now." Tommy yawned again.

Vera hated that Tommy wasn't caring about her question as much as she wanted him to "It's a now topic."

"Fuck you, V." Tommy slammed the door shut in her face.

The porch light flicked off.

Vera wanted to bang on the front door again but knew there'd be no point.
