As soon as the incessant sound of the alarm clock coming from Isabelle's phone reached her ears, she realized that having a night out the day before work was a bad idea. Really fucking bad. Most likely she had let herself get caught up in the euphoria of the moment, without thinking that on her first day she would look like a real zombie due to the late hours without sleep.
She hurried to put an end to the infernal sound, and didn't even realize she wasn't alone until she looked down and met Pope's sleeping face. His head was buried in the crook of her neck, expression peaceful as if he was having the best sleep ever, while his strong arms were wrapped tightly around her waist.
A smile appeared on Isa's face, and she automatically ran her fingers through the boy's hair. It seemed that the alarm hadn't bothered him at all.

She playfully pushed him away from her, huffing. "No it's not. It's very, very late"
At the sight of her wanting to get up, his hands snaked to her waist again, preventing her from moving. "You're insisting just because you know you'll waste hours preparing" He said sarcastically, his chin now resting on her shoulder from behind.
