Cheryl and Tre: Goodbye Means Hello

Part 7

"Well good morning Miss Lilykins." Nicola cheerfully greeted as she wandered out of the double bedroom the next morning. It was yet another sunny morning in Vegas, and everyone was excited because today was Cheryl's birthday, which was enough to brighten anyone's mood as they knew the nightfall meant partying. Lily looked up from the fruit she was cutting up into the blender, smiling straight away at Nicola.

"Good morning Miss Nicolakins. How is one redhead on this fine morning?" she jokingly replied. Nicola giggled, wandering up beside her.

"I'm good thank you; and yourself? What you doing anyway? I feel like we should be making Bella a major breakfast since she's turning thirty-one, but are we just treating her to smoothies like?" she asked straight away. Lily giggled as she began dropping some clumps of frozen yogurt into the blender.

"Well we would, but her clan arrived last night so we're meeting up with them for breakfast so this is just to tempt her out of bed." she replied. Nicola raised an eyebrow.

"Now you know we need more than a smoothie to tempt Chez out of bed; let's go find Tre, he'll tempt her." she smirked before winking. Lily started laughing, playfully slapping Nicola on the arm.

"Aw you're terrible.." she giggled before continuing, "Nah did you see her little face when she saw him yesterday? And his as well? The two of them nearly bloody forgot that we were even there. You can tell they still quite love each other; I still never figured out exactly why they broke up. Well, Cheryl never told me the whole story anyway."

"She didn't tell me or Kimba either; bless them though I really hope something comes from them being out here and partying tonight. Like even if they have a drunken fuck then a deep chat the following morning, it's a start." Nicola replied quite seriously before making her naughty remark at the end, leaving Lily to actually begin choking on the piece of strawberry she'd been eating.

"Nicola you vile creature! Shut up, man." Lily laughed away, leading Nicola to just burst out laughing; the two friends busting up together, whilst still being none the wiser to what was just behind Cheryl's bedroom door...

Meanwhile, in the master bedroom, the sunlight streamed through the curtains instantly blinding the petite Geordie popstar once she'd opened her stunning brown eyes. The light caused her head to thump even more, though it was the sound of her two friends cackling away that had actually woken her up. She didn't feel sick at all, but she knew she'd drank too much due to her headache, and do to the fact that she barely had any recollection of getting into bed. She sighed to herself, deciding a shower was definitely needed to wake her up.

However, when she went to move, she instantly felt a pair of strong arms seemingly holding her down, leading her to get a shock and instantly turn to her side. Her eyes were wide as she stared at the sleeping frame beside her..

Tre..

And she smiled instantly, the memories of the night before flooding back. Even though they hadn't been intimate or anything of that nature, she remembered how they'd talked at the bar for ages, how he'd helped her back to her room..

How she'd asked him to stay..

And God knows how much she'd missed his cuddles..

She then heard Lily and Nicola start laughing about something again, bringing her mind back to the situation at hand; getting Tre out of here. She sighed, knowing there was no way of getting him out without Nicola and Lily seeing. Deciding she may as well go ahead and face the music, she began gently stroking Tre's cheek, not wanting to startle him out of his sleep.

"Tre...Tre...wake up...Tre." she whispered, stroking his cheek some more before shaking his shoulder slightly. She then heard a quiet groan come from him, only to see his brown eyes slowly open before he then looked around, becoming aware of his surroundings. He then looked up at Cheryl, her brown eyes pouring into his, a smile on her lips. He quietly chuckled, smiling at her.
