Summary: Silence is most certainly an unwelcome guest.
Author's Note: This one's even longer than the last one, I don't have any explanation for that. I'm not happy with the ending, exactly, but I've spent as long as I possibly can tweaking it and it just won't come out any better, so. I give.

All She Wrote |
In hindsight, he should've known that 'suggesting' - he winces - therapy would cause trouble for a while. Hopefully, only a little while.
But he can't remember the last time Sam just stopped talking to him and by Friday morning it's clear that's what she's doing. He's well aware she's angry, but he can't figure why she's not kicking and punching and yelling, like she usually is.
It's not that he's not happy, for the most part, he is, it's that their relationship is weird. He doesn't mean the fighting or the way she talks to him, he would have expected that if he'd ever thought about a relationship with Sam. (Honest, he didn't, it was all her.)
(The make up sex completely makes up for all of those negatives, anyways.)
It's the way this whole thing started that worries him, makes him wonder if it means anything or if it's just her trying to something, anything.
They hadn't talked for at least 3 weeks before she showed up at his apartment door, suitcase in tow, shoving past him with a "I need a place to crash for a while."
If Carly hadn't already told him her mom had passed, he wouldn't have let her come in. (Yes, he fully believes that.)
She slept on the couch the first night, if she slept at all, told him it was uncomfortable the second night at midnight, and stole one of his pillows and all the covers, and the third night he woke up at 1 am with his hand up her shirt, and her eyes, wide and unblinking, meeting his own dead on.
He's just never been good at telling her no, and she's just never been good at letting anything go.
Four months later and that's still the only explanation he's got.
