COSMOPOLITAN:

"Interviews are so much fun but christ I'm tired." Drew flings himself in bed. We'd made our way to mine and Madelyn's apartment, it was the closest place to sleep- well, Drew's would've been as it's a floor beneath but he insisted my place.

Coco huddles in his bed aside mine, asleep, again. "I swear he sleeps more than I do in the space of a week, is that normal?" I joke, however, slightly serious.

Drew sits up just enough so he can see our puppy, "I think so, I mean, he is a baby." I nod.

"Perhaps, but if he carries on sleeping like this we're going to have to take him to the vet-"

"Your overthinking, he's fine." Drew chimes.

"Your just too tired to even think about it." I sit beside him.

"Correct." Is all he says with his face smushed against both pillows.

"Can you at least pick a side of the bed so I can sleep?" I smile before the door swings open, maddie stands at the door with a hand covering her eyes.

"I forgot to knock and I realised it was too late, is it safe." Drew laughs before turning to look at her.

"Your good." He says and she uncovers her eyes.

"Don't forget we need to be ready by five earliest-"

"What!" I yelp.

"We have more press!" She says as though it was something I was meant to know which I probably was but I don't recall being told, I was hoping for a lay in. "Skye, you literally have your vogue interview later tomorrow..."

"Oh shit, your right." I stress. "Hey how did you know and not me?"

She looks at me like I'm stupid. "We have a calendar on the fridge... of both our upcoming press events and days we're on set, that you write in everyday..." she rubs both her temples and I laugh.

"Oh yeah, I forgot about that-"

"- you write on it this morning!" Drew joins and I hold in my laughter.

"Okay, you need sleep." Madelyn shakes her head laughing and she closes the door behind her.

4:30AM - I could cry, I like my sleep to much to deprive of it. I groan aloud when I turn of my alarm that wakes both me and Drew up. A loud sigh comes of Drew, he pulls me into his chest hugging me tightly. "Five more minutes." He whispers.

I laugh quietly, wrapping my arms around him. "I'm going to fall asleep again if we don't get up."

"That's the aim." Drew says simply and I tap him on the head.

"No, we need to get up." I attempt to stand but he only pulls me back down. "Drew." I protest.

"Skye." He replies with no intention of actually getting out of bed.

I huff but give in to him, running my hands throw his short buzz cut he had cut for the current season we were filming. He pulls me closer. I hear small taps on the wood flooring, coco walking up to the bed. I pick him up and he lays between us, nuzzling his head in Drew's neck. I take the chance to get out of bed while the two of them sleep.

"Awh." I mumble to myself, hearing Drew start to snore again. I smile at the sight. Oh, I'm so lucky. I slowly close the door to not wake them both, even when Drew needs to wake up but I'll give him a few more minutes before I try wake him again. "Morning, mads." My voice croaks, still sleepy.

I run my eyes and maddie does the same. "Coffee?" Is all she says. She holds an empty cup in the air and I take it, putting it under the coffee machine we recently got. Fair to say it was the best buy.
