The next morning as the alarm sounds out, Abby tries to move to shut it off but finds that Sarah has her arm over her holding her in place. She slowly lifts the arm up and reaches for the phone to shut it off, before allowing herself to be pulled back in. She feels her hair being pushed to the side and kisses being placed on her neck and shoulder. "Mmm, I could definitely get used to waking up like this."

Sarah lets out a chuckle, "Then I'll make sure and wake you up every morning exactly like this. How'd you sleep, beautiful?"

Abby smiles, "Best sleep that I've had in a long time. You?"

"Not great. I woke up during the night, saw you sleeping beside me and thought I was dreaming; couldn't fall back asleep, because I was afraid you'd been gone in the morning if I did." 

Abby smiles at her, "It's not a dream, I'm not a dream."

Sarah smiles and leans back before softly singing, 

"A dream is a wish your heart makes

When you're fast asleep

In dreams you will lose your heartaches
Whatever you wish for, you keep

Have faith in your dreams and someday

Your rainbow will come smiling through
No matter how your heart is grieving
If you keep on believing
The dream that you wish will come true."

Abby smiles, "I wasn't expecting you to break out in song first thing in the morning; usually takes me atleast two cups before I'm even capable of a rationalized thought."

Sarah smiles and lets out a chuckle, "Pretty accurate for me as well, however, this morning I feel lighter than I have in quite awhile. I'm really glad you're here, Abby. Do you have time for breakfast or do you need to get back to your hotel before there's any questions asked?"

"I have a bit of time before the girls will be getting up and I'd love to have breakfast with you." 

"Perfect. I'll call room service and get our order in, if you'd like to use the bathroom  first and freshen up."

Abby nods and slides out from under the covers, over to where she left her bag, collecting it before heading inside and closing the door to the bathroom behind her. Standing and looking at herself in the mirror, Abby can't help but smile thinking about Sarah and how different she is in comparison to the guys she's dated in the past. Digging into her oversized bag, Abby pulls out a fresh t-shirt that she's glad she packed after listening to Sam, for once. She washes up, runs a brush through her hair and over her teeth, before touching up a minimal amount of makeup, putting on some deoderant and pulling the shirt over her head. Tucking everything back in her bag, she collects the jeans that she'd removed in order to be more comfortable to sleep and puts the back on before making her way out and hearing voices in the other room of the suite. 

Making her way into the other room, Abby smiles when she sees that it's Sarah speaking with Tanner and she makes her presence known. 

"Morning Tanner; are you joining us for breakfast?"

He smiles, "Do you mind? I really don't like eating alone and Sarah always orders way too much food for just her."

Abby smiles, "I think she only does that to rack up the label's expenses."

Sarah shrugs, "I'll be right back, need to get cleaned up. Be good, Tanner!"

"I'm always ... yeah, nope, not falling for that again." 

Abby walks over and takes a seat beside Tanner, "I like your shirt; is that a Macadamia? Her prints are beyond amazing!"
