JULIET POV

I awoke with a yawn, slowly opening my eyes trying to block the speck of light that shone through the crack of the curtain in the morning. However, my eyes widen when I see that I'm laying on Draco's chest with his t-shirt on as his arm in wrapped around my shoulders.

I don't remember getting into this particular position.

I try to move off his chest figuring he may wake up mad at me for even laying on him in the first place, trying to slowly unwrap his arm from around me, but it fails to work. His arm pulls me back into his chest holding me into him tightly as he lets out a small groan in his sleep.

I can't believe I actually had the guts to knock on his door last night and practically ask to sleep with him. It's not a big deal though, is it? Friends have sleepovers all the time and now him and I were friends, making this perfectly normal.

Friends cuddle too. That's normal. This is normal.

Shit, what time is it?

I look over to the clock on his wall at the back of the room, squinting my eyes to see it reads seven.

I finally relax back into his arms from my previous tenseness. He's actually really comfy.

I can feel his heartbeat under where my head lays. It's calm and steady. I told him his heart was made of ice yesterday at that party, I couldn't have been telling a more greater lie.

I feel him shuffle a little then bring his hand to his head to rub his face causing me to look up at him.

How are you so pretty in the mornings too?

He opens his eyes on me steadily and instantly smiles down at me, his hand regaining its position on my shoulder as I rest forward on his chest slightly to face him.

''Sleep well?'' I ask in a hushed tone and a sweet smile.

He brushes a piece of hair out of my face ''Exceptionally well'' he whispers with a smile ''How did you sleep?''

I smile down to his chest licking my lips as my fingers trace his skin ''Tremendously'' I say smirking back up at him.

''Extraordinarily?'' he smirks down at me trying not to laugh.

''Eminently'' I reply with a soft smirk and we both chuckle quietly as he looks deep into my eyes.

The blue in his eyes is really showing today. Even in this dim-lit room full of dark colours, the blue in his eyes is as prominent as ever.

He shakes his head with a small sigh ''I've never met someone who matches my humour like you'' he says, searching my eyes.

''That's just because our humour is more evolved and unmatched'' I say sarcastically as he turns his head to the side to smile ''How do you look so good in the morning?'' I squint my eyes at him and his head snaps back to me.

''What do you mean?''

''You're hair is messy but in a neat way, your skin is glowing and I bet your fucking breath still smells like mint''

He lets out a breathily laugh unable to control how much he obviously finds me embarrassingly funny.

He nods ''Yeah, you're right actually'' he chuckles ''I am perfect to be fair'' he says so naturally.

But he's right, he really is.

''I can't even be pissed off at you for being so self conceited because it makes sense when you look like that'' I roll my eyes at him and he places his hand on my cheek with a sigh.
