| Y/N's POV |

I slowly dragged Hailee from the bathroom over to the bed, she stopped me, giving me a shake of her head. But I ignored her, pulling her with me as I sat down, continuing to tug at her sleeve until she fell in bed next to me. She tried to leave, but I was able to get her to lay next to me. She was as stiff as a board.

"Have you never cuddled before?" I ask, confusion in my tone but it was also soft as I look up at the brunette. She looks down at me, a certain kind of vulnerability in her eyes as she shrugs her shoulders. "I'll help you." I smile lightly, grabbing her arm and carefully placing it around my torso.

She furrowed her brows as I slowly lay on top of her, resting my chin on her chest while I slowly guide her arms around me, keeping them there. She looked at me, tilting her head quietly as I just smiled.

"Just relax." I whisper, running my hand gently along her chest that was now a little exposed through her hoodie.

Hailee listened, surprisingly, melting into the mattress as her hands intertwined together, resting on the small of my back, keeping her arms around me. She leaned her head back against the pillow, staring at the ceiling. She was quiet, too quiet, and for some reason it was worrying me.

"What's wrong?" I ask, resting my cheek against her shoulder.

Hailee shrugged, keeping her eyes locked on the ceiling. "I've never done this before..." Her voice was unusually quiet and gentle, her eyes slowly fluttering closed. I took in her features, her beautiful hazel eyes were tucked away behind her eye lids, her jawline was very defined and sharp, while her nose was the perfect size. Her lips were pink, and a bit glossy from the chapstick she uses. They smelled of strawberries and vanilla. I couldn't help but admire her. She was beautiful, drop-dead gorgeous.

"Do... you want to take a nap?" I hesitantly suggest. Hailee kept her eyes closed, remaining relaxed in my arms as she nodded. "Okay." I whisper contently, smiling a little as I could hear the snores beginning to leave her lips, signaling to me that she was already dozing off. I closed my own eyes, pressing my face more into her soft chest as I felt sleep overtaking me as well.

I was still exhausted from last night, so it didn't take long for me to fall asleep. I knocked out instantly, the last thing I heard and felt was Hailee's cute snores and her arms gently tightening around my waist, a sign of protection.

We slept for almost two hours, I was the last to awake, feeling nothing but coldness in the bed next to me. I frowned, sitting up, only for my nerves to calm down when I saw Hailee's figure in the bathroom.

I stand up, pushing the covers off of me as I approach the door, leaning against it. "When did you wake up?"

Hailee doesn't look at me. "About an hour ago." She said, staring at her reflection in the mirror. I sigh, walking up behind her as I use my hands to slowly rub up her shoulders, feeling how tense her body is.

Hailee slowly turned around, leaning back against the sink as she pulled me close to her. I rest my hands on her chest, staring into her eyes. Her hazel eyes are so enchanting. It was as if in sync, we both slowly leaned in, I slowly cupped Hailee's cheek. "Are you sure?" I ask her, barely above a whispers.

She nods softly, continuing to lean in as we finally close the gap. Our lips were two puzzle pieces perfectly molded together, it felt so right, it felt like fireworks were exploding all around us. I could feel my heart fluttering uncontrollably, Hailee's left arm hooked around my waist, her right hand settling on my hip. My hand moved to the back of her head, pulling her down further to deepen the kiss more.

As I do this, I pull a small, yet unexpected, moan from the taller girl. I smile into the kiss, slowly beginning to walk backwards to the shower behind us. Hailee's tongue slowly slid out from her mouth, swiping my bottom lip, asking for entrance. I granted her with it immediately, moaning when her tongue made contact with my mouth. She invaded every nook and cranny of my mouth, our tongues battling for dominance that she won when she teasingly bit down on my bottom lip gently.

We both pull away, our lungs filling with oxygen again as we stare at each other. And that's when I saw it, that same vulnerability in Hailee's eyes that told me something.

She looked like she was in love.
