"Wake up, sleepyhead!"

I groaned as I felt someone poking me awake. All I wanted to do was stay in bed and sleep more but Joe seemed to have other ideas. I swatted his hand away and rolled over so my back was to him. I heard him chuckle as I buried myself under the duvet.

"Come on, love. Its midday! You can't sleep all day."

"Watch me!" I replied, although my voice was muffled by the duvet. But by the sounds of him chuckling again I figured he had understood what I said.

"Well, I was going to take you to the book shop but it's okay if you want to stay in bed. I'll be downstairs, love." He said, giving me one last poke before he got off of the bed.

It took a second for me to realise what he had said due to being sleepy still but once it hit me I quickly threw the duvet off and got off of the bed as quickly as I could. I ignored how the cold air hit me and literally threw myself into Joes arms.

"Yes! Yes! Yes!"

"Knew that would get you up! Get some clothes on so we can go." He gave me a cheeky wink before pushing me towards the wardrobe and giving my ass a little slap.

Once I was dressed and wrapped up warm we left for the bookstore where Joe patiently followed me around carrying any book I chose. Once I decided I was done we went to the counter to pay. Before I could get my card out I heard a beep and looked up to see that he had already paid.

"Joe! You didn't need to do that. You spoil me enough already."

Instead of replying he just winked at me before grabbing the book bag in one hand and mine in the other. We got a taxi home and as soon as we got in I went to make us both a nice hot chocolate while Joe went to put the fire on and choose a movie to watch. A few minutes later we were cuddled up on the sofa, under a blanket watching one of the Harry Potter movies.

"Today was perfect, Joe. I don't deserve you!" I said, snuggling into him and burying my face in the crook of his neck.

"I'd do anything to make you happy, sweetheart. Now watch the movie!" He laughed as he kissed my forehead. I smiled up at him, booping him on the nose before turning back to the tv. I loved sleeping but I loved cuddling with Joe way more.
