"Bellllaaa..." My mind focuses in and out on a voice that sounds close. Thinking it was just the end of a dream, I ignore it and turn myself around snuggling deeper into my blankets.
"Bella." It came as a whisper this time and my eyes opened slowly. The morning light causes the top of my eyes to hurt so i instantly close them again.

A few seconds later, I feel a soft shove on my back. Groaning in annoyance, I take my pillow and shove it over my head, hoping the intruder would just shut up.

Yet, with my luck, it didn't.
Louder this time, and slightly more aggressive, a deep, smooth voice came close to my ear. I could feel the heat on my neck.
"Bella." It was short and fast, but loud enough to make me jump.
"If you don't get up in ten seconds-"
"Then what?" I grumble, sitting up abruptly and looking over at Simon. He has himself propped up on one elbow, shirtless. Letting my eyes wander down until I see the sheets covering the rest of his body, I feel myself blush deep pinks. I bite my bottom lip and look down at my hands.
Simon slides me down onto my back and tucks loose hair behind my ears. Leaning in so that I can feel his breath on my ear, Simon takes one arm and props himself so that half of him is over me.
"If you keep biting your lip like that," Simon growls, "then I promise you, I will rip your cloths off."
My heart skips a beat and I can't think of anything but Simons lips devouring me.
Suddenly, Simon chuckles and places his hand over my heart.
He bursts into a full blown laughing fit and I can't help but smile a little.
"What's so funny." I ask, almost scared to hear his answer.
Simon taps where my heart is and chuckles.
"I don't think that's healthy."
My face becomes even more red and I push him off of me, sitting up.
"Shut up." I grumble and make myself get up.
"Well I had to find some way to get you up." Simon protests.
I roll my eyes and walk over to my closet, trying to decide what to wear. When it hits me.
"Oh my god." I breath out in exasperation. Simons expression is worried when I look at him. He stands quickly and comes to my side.
"What is it?" He asks, tracing my jaw with his thumb.
"Tomorrow..."
"Bella, don't." Simon tilts my head so that my eyes lock with his. "Promise me something?" He says, more of a question.
When I nod as a response, he goes on.
"Promise that you won't think about tomorrow at all today. Promise that you are going to have fun and be worry free. Please."
My eyes blur with tears and I wrap my arms around Simon, squeezing him with reassurance.
"I promise." I whisper into his chest, my tears falling freely onto his shirt. "But..." I drag on, leaning away from him and heading back to find some cloths.
"But what." Even with my back towards him, I can hear the concern laced in his voice.
"But I'm starting to think that I don't like your promises." I smile to myself and pluck out a plane red, low v-neck off of its hanger. Then, walking back to my tub labeled 'shorts', I choose a pair of faded blue denims. I was in the process of turning around when Simon snaked his arms around my waist, exhilarating my heart beat, and leaning his face into my neck, nuzzling me.
A giggle escapes from my lips and I tilt my head to the side.
Simon starts kissing my neck and everywhere his lips touch, it feels as if my whole body is on fire.
"I could make my first promise come true..." He places a kiss on the base of me jaw, "if you want."
I try and keep my smile from showing, turning around so we are toe to toe.
I take one hand and grip Simons shirt tightly, leaning in towards his ear.
"Somehow I don't find that entirely convincing."
Simon growls to my response and leans in to close the space between us. Just as our lips are millimeters from each other's, there is a soft knock on my door.

My mind races as I pull away from Simon and look at my clock on my nightstand.
"Oh my god." I whisper.
"What?" Simon asks, confused about my sudden mood change.
Grabbing Simons wrist, I quickly shove him towards my closet.
"Go go go!" I whisper violently. I push him into my closet and grab the door.
"Wait what's going-" Simon doesn't get to finish as I close the door in his face and speed walk to my bedroom door.
