Eden hadn't slept well. She had tossed and turned all night and she had grown angrier with Rhys as it appeared that he was sleeping just fine. "The sleep of the Just" he called it. She resisted the urge to kick him.
She hated going to bed angry.
Stupid Bella, she thought. Stupid Bella. Stupid wedding. Stupid green dress. Stupid Rhys!
After their argument the day before, Eden had spent her entire time exercising her non-existent telepathic abilities willing him to apologize for his "past disappointments" comment. Alas, she hadn't developed any latent psychic talents, which in a way had made her even angrier.
Logically she knew that he hadn't intentionally meant to be hurtful with the comment. Not entirely. But it was the straw that had broken the camel's back.
There were a lot of straws breaking a lot of camels backs lately.
She felt Rhys shift slightly and heard him sigh. She ground her teeth and yanked the blanket over her shoulder.
"Green is better than red," he said quietly.
"I thought you were asleep."
"It's kind of hard to sleep if I spend most of my night worrying about falling off the edge of the bed."
She turned over and saw that it was true. He was as far away from her as he could get without falling off. "Well you're the one who chose to sleep there."
"Only because you have a nasty habit of kicking me in your 'sleep' when you have a bug up your ass. I mean, it's not like you do it that hard or anything, but it's still fucking annoying."
"I do not."
"You do so."
"I do not!"
"Yes, Ede, you do. And you steal all the blankets and make those tiny, disgruntled harumphing noises."
She tossed the blankets over to him. "Then fine. Take them."
He grabbed one of the pillows and covered his face with it as if he wanted to smother himself. "Oh my God!" he said, drawing out the last word. "Whatever, Eden."
"No. You whatever, Rhys." She turned over with a small harumph.
They laid there silently for a bit. Then she heard him turn over and there was a small beeping noise from his phone. "Goddammit," he groaned under his breath.
"What time is it?"
"Four-thirty."
They both sighed in unison.
"I'm old," she said quietly.
"Yep. You're so old that a gust of wind will crumble you like dust. You're forty-six. That's positively ancient."
"I'm serious, Rhys."
"So am I."
"Bella said that a woman my age looks desperate when she wears red. Like someone who clings to their youth and refuses to age gracefully."
"Finally," she heard him mutter.
"What?"
"You're finally telling me what's been bugging you." He scooted closer and leaned on his elbow. "Ede, Bella is, like, ten thousand years old and she's been drinking elixir for about as long. She has no room to talk."
"But she looks younger."
"Younger does not mean hotter. And as for the wearing red thing, well, she looks like a whore in red. You never did. You still don't."
"But my face and body is my livelihood, Rhys. It's quite the blow to the ego when you're no longer cast as the love interest, but as the evil step-mother instead. And then this stuff with Bella?" She swallowed back a small sob and hastily wiped the tears from her eyes.
His fingers rubbed her arm gently. "I agree. Aging sucks. It's not exactly an ego-boosting walk in the park for men, either." His hips gently bumped her backside to indicate what he was talking about.
A small giggle escaped her lips. "At least you still have all your hair."
"Thank God for that. I'm not terribly fond of the white hairs that are cropping up with alarming regularity, but I don't think I can pull off bald." His arm wrapped around her waist and she snuggled her back against his chest.
"So you really think green is better than red?"
"Well I've always had a preference for it. Blue is also a pretty good color. You're going to be my hot wife no matter what color you choose to wear. Next time Bella says anything, tell her to kiss your firm, toned ass."
"I think I hate her."
"Wow. Those are some pretty strong words there. You 'think' you hate her." She felt his chest move with his chuckle.
"Well I do."
"You and me both, babe."
"Rhys?"
"Hmm?"
"You..you aren't really disappointed, are you?"
He sighed and gently kissed her neck. "Don't worry about it."

The Many Uses of Paper Clips
By: Quinn Isaac Devereaux
Paper clips have many uses. They hold peesis of paper together real good. You can put them together in a long chain if you are board. They make good toy guns to because you can use a ruberband to shot them. They are also real good for wierd seefood dekorashuns because my dad said they can make good inpromtoo nippel clams. I think you push them in the clams and than string them together or something and that is relly neet. Those are some uses of paper clips. The end.
