As my eyes open I notice there's a strange pressure on my chest. It's like a heavy weight is on it. Now that my eyes are open properly and my mind is fully awake it becomes clear that it's Sabrina. Her head is resting on my chest while the rest of her body is cuddled up to mine.

I like it very much. Is this what it's like waking up with your girlfriend?

Are we even girlfriends now? What if it was all a dream. Wait no, our clothes are still scattered around the room and our bodies remain naked.

Last night was a lot but definitely not a dream. Though it did certainly feel like one.

While stretching I notice the clock saying it's only six am. It's so early I might as well get some more sleep. I tuck us both in with the blanket and close my eyes. It doesn't take long for me to doze off.

~~~

When I wake up again Sabrina is gone. I'm alone in front of the fire place and my arms are empty. The storm has finally stopped and the sun is back. As I get up and gather my clothes I hear the shower running.

So that's where Sabrina is hiding out, should I join her? I decide not to, instead I make some breakfast. Some fresh toast and eggs, perfect.

As I'm busy making breakfast the shower stops. A few minutes later I hear the bathroom door open. I quickly finish so I can surprise Sabrina with the breakfast.

But as soon as she comes out everything changes.

"Good morning, I made you some breakfast",

I smile and walk up to her.

Sabrina's eyes widen as she looks at me. Something in them changes. It's like she startles, there are worries in her eyes and tension in her body. This isn't like her at all.

"Thanks but I'm not hungry",

she mumbles as she drys her hair.

"Ouch",

I feel very disappointed but maybe it was a little too much.

Maybe she needs some space to process everything.

"Well seems like the storm has finally slowed down",

her hair now gets tucked in a ponytail.

Her top is already soaked because of it.

"That's perfect because I have to be somewhere",

she then says while swapping her top with the one left on the floor.

"Why are you in such a hurry all of the sudden?",

I'm taking my time.

Someone has to appreciate the breakfast I just made.

"If you must know, I'm meeting up with my friends, I've missed them",

is she seriously gonna ignore what happened?!

"So we're not even gonna talk about what happened last night?",

I don't wanna be that girl but I have to.

"What is there to talk about?",

Sabrina stops getting ready for a second and then continues.

So she seriously is ignoring what happened.

"Well what are we now?",

I need some sort of clarification.

"We're us, we've always been us why would that change?",
