-POV BLAIRE-

daylight caresses my face. I open my eyes slightly, seeing an arm embracing me, feeling a burning body against my back.
When I turn around, I see Tom, asleep, totally naked, the blanket covering him slightly.

I vaguely remember last night, but I know for a fact that we slept together. After all, I wanted to and I knew it was going to happen the moment he asked me out.

I sat on the edge of the bed, rubbing my eyes. My body was covered only by a simple t-shirt borrowed from Tom.

When I was ready to get up, I heard the boy move behind me. He opened his eyes to look in my direction. We look at each other for a moment, as if slightly shocked to find ourselves in the same bed.

Blaire
- Sleep well?
I say, sitting cross-legged opposite him.

Tom
- I slept well. How about you ?

Blaire
- The same.
I say with a smile. A gentle smile spreads across his face.

Tom
- You didn't leave.

I look at him slightly surprised.
- Why would I?

Tom
- Every time I sleep with a girl, the next day I don't even see her leave the room.

Blaire
- I'm not like that.
I say as I lie down beside him, staring at the ceiling.

Tom
- So... You don't regret last night?

Blaire
- Absolutely not.
My gaze shifts in his direction.
- How about you?

Tom
- Certainly not. I think this has been the best night of my life.

I laugh slightly.
- Really ?

Tom
- Really.

Blaire
- I had a great night too.

Tom
- You mean it?

Blaire
- I wouldn't say it if I didn't mean it.

He smiles as he straightens slightly. He places his fingertips along my arm, letting me shiver at their touch.

Tom
- Are you ok?

Blaire
- Your hands are cold.
I say, catching his hand between mine to warm it. His smile widens and his face lights up. My gaze locks with hers.
Suddenly, someone knocks on the door. We both jump and I almost fall out of bed. I hide under the blanket while Tom quickly gets dressed so he can open the door. 

Bill
- Tom?

Tom
- Oh hi bro, how are you?

Bill
- I'm good... Have you seen Blaire by any chance? The girls are looking for her.

Tom
- No, I haven't seen her. I just woke up.

Bill
- Yeah. Hurry up, we've got to leave in ten minutes.

Tom
- I'll hurry, thanks.
he says, closing the door.

I'd understood absolutely nothing of their discussion.
I pull the blanket off my head and sit up straight. We didn't even know why, but the situation itself made us laugh.

- Blaire! We've been looking all over for you!

Blaire
- I was close, though.
