Barely Breathing

Chapter 28

I woke up the next morning because of a stroking down my arm, I slightly opened my eyes to find Reece lying there just staring at me, and he was so damn cute but a wee bit creepy… 

“What is this? Reece Mastin awake before me? Say what now?!?” I said rubbing my eyes and waking up.

“Ha ha you look so… innocent when you’re asleep” he said staring into my eyes. Damn this boy! What is he doing to me? 

“Alright now you’re just trying to get laid,” I said getting up onto my elbows and raising my eyebrows. 

“Me? Neverrrrr!” he said and we both laughed. “Nah I’m being serious you look so peaceful, I don’t think you should go to Uni today. It’s raining outside and I think we should just chill and watch movies” he said running his fingers through my hair…. Like seriously what?

“Are you on your period or something?” I asked completely confused by this mushy Reece, I’m not going to say I don’t like it though. 

He laughed at me “Taylor, I’m trying to be a cute boyfriend here, please just stay yes. I’ll go get us some breakfast and we can lay on the couch and watch movies” he said getting up and putting pants on. I was very tempted… I only had one class today and it was available online and his offer sounds too good to resist. Man that boy… he is turning me into mush! 

“Hmmm ok but this is only a one off thing! Lets go get some coffee and breaky babe I’m in need of some caffeine after last night” I said sitting up making sure Reece was looking when I jumped out of bed, teasing him was one of my favourite hobbies.

I got out and he watched as I slipped on the same top as I had on last night, I made my way over to ‘my’ draw and got an outfit together before running off into the bathroom. As I got to the door I turned around and smiled at him cutely whilst biting my lip hoping to send him into overdrive and I quickly closed the door behind me. 

I had a quick shower to wash the ‘Reece’ off me and then I got changed and left my hair and put a light layer of foundation on but didn’t worry about eye makeup because I would just put my sunnies on. I was ready, I took one last look in the mirror to check I was looking okhttp://www.polyvore.com/untitled_77/set?id=57824351#stream_box and then exited the bathroom to find zeeee boy sitting on the bed playing with my phone ready to go.

“What are you doing?” I asked knowing that his mental age is about two so he would have hacked something. 

“Nothing lets go” I let it slide and followed him to the door. 

We walked hand in hand to our favourite little café. “Are we having breaky here or takeaway?” I asked looking up and him. It’s crazy how much taller then me his him… man I am so short. 

“We can sit down I reckon what do you think?” he said before kissing and sniffing the top of my head… strange boy. 

“Yeah ok but can we go to the video store after? I want to show you this TV show that you will love” I said getting a little more excited then I should for this situation.

He laughed at me, “Of course”.

We sat down at the café and of course there were a few people coming up asking for photos with Reece and of course there were comments about how cute we were but we didn’t mind. Reece ordered the big breaky and I ordered waffles. We ate them fast and pretty much in silence because they were so damn good! Once we were done we ordered a coffee to go and then made our way to the movie store. We hired out the first and second seasons of Misfits and then made our way back to Reece’s place, which was only a few streets down from where we were.
