Today’s #maydays prompt, FIRE
You awake hon?
What?
You awake?
I am now.
Can we talk?
Babe its 2 am.
I know I want to talk.
Are you sick?
No!
Your mother sick?
No!
Grandma dying again?
No! I just want to talk.
You’re playing with fire you know that?
Yes I do but its important.
Can’t it wait till morning?
It could but its fresh on my mind and now is the time.
Ok Buster spit it out!
The spare room I think it should be painted in red.
What? You woke me up to tell me that?
Yes!
I don’t care right now if we paint it orange.
I hate orange.
Look mister get your arse to sleep.
You’re mad now aren’t you?
Yes babe, I’m all fired up so if you know what’s good for you.
Ok I didn’t mean to get you all riled up.
Then why wake me?
To talk about the spare room.
Listen buddy boy, I’m not talking about spare rooms at 2 am.
Ok. I’ll go back to sleep.
Good.
Didn’t think you’d bite my head off.
I didn’t bite your head off but that’s not such a bad idea.
When you use buster and mister at me I know I’m in trouble.
You deserve to be. Now sleep mister.
I am, sound asleep right now.
Good.
Babe?
Yes?
I love you.
Hmmm…..I’ll give you an answer in the morning.
Great, love your morning answers….zzzzzzzz

Oh I needed that tonight 🙂 A late night chuckle when I’m feeling down. It’s been a bad day as far as pain goes. This was great, Michael 😀
I’m sorry to hear that Lyn, glad I could give a little boost, maybe my music prompt post might help too? Hope tomorrow you are feeling better.
Wonderful! I really enjoyed the continuity of that 2 am conversation – chuckle-making material for sure.
Thanks Millie lovely you could stop by. Have a great weekend.
Lucky you to only get a buster and mister with a 2 a.m. wake-up, lol. Great post, Michael 😀
Yes lucky alright…..could have been worse I guess….thanks for stopping by Mandy.
😀
Such a funny conversation. One of those 2:00 am conversations eh? I would hate to say, but I’m a grumpy person when someone wakes me from sleep. I would probably get really upset or say something I shouldn’t. Clearly, this couple has done this before and have a way to deal with these sudden questions about painting spare rooms 🙂 Great way to show playing with fire.
