Caught In A Riptide

That Girl Needs A Leash

*Demi's POV*
~January 1st 2019~

The sound of my phone alarm going off in another room woke me up and I just wanted it to stop. I pulled myself out of Dani's grasp and went looking for my phone. I found it on charge in the kitchen where I left it and started preparing to get the day started.

The next sound was the demanding meow of a cat wanting to be fed. The fluffy girl was right there beside me, looking up.

"Why me? Can't you wait for your mum?" I asked the cat.

The reply came in the form of an even louder, more insistent meow. I went around the bar and into the kitchen to start looking for her food. Once I found it and her bowls I fed her and went back into the bedroom to gather up my clothes.

"I guess Marie got you to feed her?" Dani asked with her eyes still closed.

"Yeah, she did." I laughed.

"I figured she would. If you're the one close to the kitchen when it's time, you're the one to feed her." Dani replied, sitting up.

"Sounds just like a cat." I agreed.

"Especially my girl. Need any help getting your things packed?" She asked.

"Can you get my toiletries from the bathroom while I get dressed?" I asked.

"Yeah, sure." She nodded, untangling herself from her mess of sheets and blankets.

She walked out of her room and continued on to her bathroom. I got dressed and made sure I had everything I brought in with me. I was trying to prolong leaving, but I couldn't for much longer. I still had security to get through, and that would take forever for an international flight.

"Here you go." Dani announced as she handing over the mini bottles.

"Thank you. With these I think that's everything." I sighed.

"Yeah, looks like it. Charger and everything right?" Dani asked looking over her messy room.

"Yeah, already grabbed. I know I'm just procrastinating, but work calls." I replied.

"Yeah, it's not like we won't see each other in like a month." She pointed out.

"Yeah, that's true. Okay, get something on and walk me out." I ordered.

She went right over to her closet and pulled out a plain black dress. She slipped it on and fluffed out her hair some, just to make it look less like she just got out of bed after being railed most of the night.

We both stopped to get our shoes on before she walked me out to my rental car. I tossed my bag in and turned to her, "let me know what your friend says about the Rumble."

"I will. I need a day to recover after the last two before I see her again." Dani replied.

"Yeah, I know what you mean." I laughed.

"Okay, you better go before you miss your flight." She sighed.

With a kiss goodbye, I climbed into the car and started the drive to Sydney International Airport to go back to England.
