I woke up with a start as I could hear my phone singing at me. I grabbed my phone off the table next to me and made my way into one of the living areas to see who was ringing.

'Hey everything ok?', I said into the phone, it was Charlie.

'I'm engaged!', she screeched down the phone.

'You're what?!', I shouted down the phone regretting the shouting when I heard Chris groan.

'Lewis proposed last night when we went out for our 1 year anniversary. I can't believe it Lucy!'

'Wow hun, that's um incredible!', I had to admit it seemed really quick and she was only 19 but I didn't want to burst her bubble right now. I mean I had room to talk right?!

'I woke you up didn't I?', she asked.

'Yeah, but it's fine, it's oh god only 7!'

'Sorry Luce! But I had to ring, I left it as long as I could!', she sounded so happy.

'No, it's fine, I'm sure I can go back to sleep', I was so exhausted. Chris and I had stayed up quite late last night and I was knackered! 'Anyway, you need to send me a picture of the ring!', I added.

'Yeah of course,it's beautiful, argh I can't believe I'm engaged!'

'I'm really happy for you Charlie', I said stifling a yawn.

'Let me let you get back to sleep', she said.

'Thanks, but I'll text you later ok? Tattoos today!'

'You can fill me in on EVERYTHING that has happened, don't think you're getting away with no details whatsoever Missy!', she chastised me. It was hard to believe she was only 19 sometimes.

'I'll give you two words, bath and champagne! And on that note, bye!', I ended the call giggling.

I made my way to the bathroom and used the toilet and brushed my teeth. I hated morning breath and even though I was determined to get back to sleep, my breath was knocking me sick!

I crawled back into the bed and looked over at Chris. He was lay on his front with his head to the side. He wasn't snoring, just breathing slightly heavily. He looked so handsome just lay there. I curled up and faced him and closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep with a big grin on my face.

A few hours later

'Luce, wake up', Chris was saying as he gently nudged my shoulder.

'Ugh, I don't wanna!', I said taking a pillow and throwing it over my head very dramatically.

'We gotta get up if you want your tattoos, we need some food before we go.'

'But I'm tired, somebody kept me up till the wee hours', I said throwing the pillow at him for good measure.

'And you didn't enjoy a minute of it did you?', he said with a smirk.

'Oh shut up!', I said throwing the duvet over my head.

'Don't make me tickle you Taylor', he said and I felt him pull the duvet off me and his hands reached for my sides.

'Chris, don't!', I warned but to no avail, his fingers started their attack on my sides and I was squirming and giggling within minutes. 'Ok, ok, I'll get up! But I did get woken up at 7 ya know!', I said as I got out of the bed and stood with my hands on my hips.

'Did you?', he questioned sitting up against the headboard wearing boxers and a smile.

'Yeah, Charlie rang. Lewis proposed last night', I said.
