The Fan Gay (Cate Blanchett)

Chapter 23

May 12

Not wanting to open my eyes, I rolled over to face the wall. I fix the blanket on my legs and cover my entire body with it. But even that, I didn't feel comfortable with my position. I groaned, frustrated that I couldn't find my spot. So I rolled over to the other side, still with my eyes closed.

Thinking that I couldn't sleep because of my pillow, I searched for the one I was hugging a while ago. But when I touched the one in front of me, I felt something different. It's not a piece of cloth from the bed, but a skin. I opened my eyes immediately and saw Cate looking at me with a little smile on her face.

"Cate? You're awake? Why are you...in my bed?" I said with my groggy voice.

"You didn't call me last night."

That didn't answer my question, but okay.

"I was tired, sorry," I said, getting my pillow from her. "It's mine," I said again, Hugging it tightly. "What time is it?"

"Four in the morning, I think," she replied, moving a little closer to me.

"Four?" I said, whispering aloud, "What time did you get here?"

"Ten pm. I was worried you were not answering my calls, so I went here to check on you. Then, I was surprised when you were already asleep, even snoring in this bed." Cate replied while she tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear.

"I think I fell asleep since eight. I'm still sleepy now." Then right after I say that, I yawn.

Cate smiled, "Then, sleep." She said, putting her hand on my eyes to close them, "It's still very early. We'll talk later."

I shared my blanket with her, "Let's sleep together." I said, intertwining our hands under the blanket.

Now, this needs to be a perfect way to sleep.

My peaceful sleep woke me up by Cate, who was currently shaking my arm to wake me. I moved away from her, wanting to sleep more.

"Y/n, wake up."

I cover my face with my blanket, still not answering her.

"Sweetie, You need to get the hell out of this bed."

I groaned, "I'm sleeping."

"I know, that's why you need to wake up," she said, pulling the blanket out of my face. "It's almost eleven, and you've been sleeping for fifteen hours."

"One more hour, promise."

"No, you had enough," she said, pulling my hands and making me sit on my bed.

I finally open my eyes and look at her, even in my blurry vision, "I hate to say this, but you're annoying for waking me up." I said, rubbing my eyes.

She smiled, "I'm not. You're just stubborn." She said as she stood up. "Common, let's go downstairs. We're going to eat outside."

------------------
Cate and I go to the nearest resto to eat brunch. Yeah, because she hasn't eaten breakfast too. Cate said she didn't want to eat alone, so she patiently waited for me. It took her 2 hours before she decided to wake me up. Gosh, I can't even wait 5 minutes if I'm that hungry.

We are now both eating, talking about what Mia and I did yesterday.

"We've been outside since morning yesterday, just in the mall and... such," I said while mushing the pork in my mouth.
