Aidan quickly got out of the passenger side of the car and into the drivers seat. He said nothing to Lex and she scurried off quickly. He rolled his eyes once again when he saw his fiancee meet up with Jane. Surely the women would talk about his absence. But instead of obsessing over it Aidan decided to just go home.
Once inside the modern apartment that he and Lex rented Aidan went straight for the fridge. Within five minutes he had managed to vacuum down a turkey sandwich and a beer. He was overly exhausted when the day had started and now he was stressed out. Aidan found his secret stash of cigarettes and lit one carelessly in the middle of the kitchen. With his head leaned against his hand, Aidan took a long time to enjoy that cigarette. With each drag he calmed down, at least enough to get some rest. Aidan let out a sigh once his cig was finished. Then he took a can of Febreze and tried to cleanse the stench before heading into the bedroom.
Undressed and lazily wrapped in a huge comforter Aidan took a moment to look at his phone. No word from Lex... That was fine. Tempted to text her he opened up the messenger, then he closed it. They could deal with this later. Texting her now would only make things worse. She would be there with Jane doing the parenting thing and he would be lounging in bed. A moment of shame flushed over Aidan as he thought about Lex as a single mother before he fell asleep.
