I can thankfully say I woke up before James did, so I was able to stare at him as he slept. (I swear it isn't creepy!) The way his eyelids fluttered ever so slightly if I moved the mattress. How his chest rose when he breathed in sharply. I was going to stare longer but I decided I was hungry, so I decided to wake him. "James, wake up you sleepy head. I am going to make breakfast if you want some." I said as I gently shook his shoulder. 


"Mmmm." He groaned. One eyelid opened and he grinned when he saw me and sat up. "Don't you look awfully awake?" He said looking at me suspiciously.


"I may or may not have been looking at you whilst you slept..." I grinned. He smiled and got out of bed and went in search for his underwear, and when he found them he slipped them on. 


"You look awfully chilly there dear." And he picked up his shirt and handed it to me. I nervously smiled and slipped it on. It smelt like him; his cologne and his body sent. (It was heavenly. Lol so cheesy.) He winked and I walked out and down the stairs and into the kitchen. Thankfully my parents always had the cabinets stocked so I got out stuff for bacon and eggs. Whilst the bacon was cooking I decided to make myself one of my smoothies; 1 banana, 1 apple, half a cup of ice, 1/3rd cup of low fat milk, tablespoon of honey and spinach. (Sounds disgusting but its actually really good I swear!) 


"I'm sorry but that looks like vomit..." James spurred out.


I started laughing. It so did. "Shh it's really good for you!" He laughed but didn't say anything else so I think he knew I was probably right. Whilst I was getting breakfast ready for us, I couldn't help but smile. I mean, there was no awkward air between us after what happened last night. Even after being with a guy for two months and then finally doing stuff, the next morning was so incredibly awkward. Where as with James it wasn't. It was like we were best friends.
