The sound of soft snores colliding together filled the room as Jason and Zoey slept peacefully. Jason had his arm wrapped around Zoey, and their legs were tangled together. 

Zoey's eye ajar, as the sun beamed through the window and into her face. She smiled at the sight of Jason still slumbering. Zoey slowly moved Jason's arm from around her waist and got out of bed, trying not to wake the sleeping prince that was lying upon her.

Zoey was still exhausted, and she barely slept a wink last night, because of all of the things Jason had told her. They were haunting her mind, every word, Every detail.

She wondered why he waited so long to tell her about her being his first love, and all of the other stuff, but he still never told her why he had held her hostage and torture her the way he did. It didn't make any sense to her, and it never will.

Zoey had swayed her hips over to the bathroom, and eyed her refelction in the mirror. Make up was smeared all around her eyes, and her hair was like a bird's nest. She turned on the knob to the water, and splashed it into her face, trying to wake herself up and to get all of that extraneous make up that was left on her face.

Zoey grabbed a towel and dried off her damp face and threw it on the side of the tub. 

Albeit, she made her way into the kitchen, finding Dani on the couch eating Cap'n crunch, which was Jason's favorite cereal of all time. Her hair was in a ball on top of her head, and she was in Jason's shirt, with just her panties on. 

"Morning." Dani said, with a mouth full of the little golden treasure chests. "Morning." Zoey said back, grabbing two bowls down from the cabinent to make her and Jason some Cap'n crunch as well. Zoey filled her bowl halfway, and poured almost the rest of the cereal into Jason's bowl, filling it up to the top. Zoey grabbed the milk out of the fridge, and poured it into both of their bowls.

She slipped a spoon in the bowls and made her way back into Jason's bedroom. His door was cracked so she used her foot to push it open since her hands were filled.

Jason was still asleep, but in a different position. He was lying on his stomach with his arms around the pillow, and tucked underneath it. Zoey placed the bowls on his dresser and jumped ontop of him. "Wake up!" Zoey said, with a giggle emitting from her lips. Groans and moans escaped his lips. "Jase, I made you some Cap'n crunch, if you don't eat it I will." Jason's eyes popped open. "Don't you do it Zoey Anne." Jason said in a raspy tone. 

Zoey bounced ontop of him. "Then get up!" Jason sighed in annoyance. "Alright, then get off me." Zoey went and got Jason's bowl of cereal along with hers and handed it to him, sitting on the bed with her legs crossed as she dug her spoon in the cereal and taking an enormous bite. 

"Did you sleep good?" Zoey asked, trailing her tongue along her lips to get the milk off of them. Jason placed the sppon in his mouth and took in a big bite and crunched down. He nodded as he chewed. 

Zoey gnawed on her lip as she sensed that Jason was in a bit of a cranky mood. She didn't know why, but maybe it was because he was just tired and hated to be woken up.

"Did you?" Jason responded. Zoey picked at the pieces of cereal that were still left in the bowl, chasing them around as they ran away from her spoon. "Kind of, I didn't really get a lot of sleep because I was thinking about all of the things you told me last night." 

Jason remained silent. He didn't really want to dive into that conversation again, especially when he just woke up. Jason soon enough finished the rest of his cereal and drank the milk that was in his bowl. Zoey was still chasing the few cereal pieces that were in her bowl. She didn't really want the rest, she was already full.She didn't really eat a lot in the mornings, it just made her feel sick.
