When We Collided

Chapter 14 - San Francisco

Alison's POV

I could get used to waking up beside Adrian. He was still asleep, and I'd spent the last 10 minutes staring at him. I felt like a creep, but you'd understand if you were in my position. I mean, have you seen his after-sex hair? Our legs were tangled together underneath the white sheets. I could feel his heart beating against mine, as my hands were on his naked chest. As I was admiring my perfect almost-boyfriend, a strand of hair fell from his face so I went to move it out of his face when Adrian grabbed my arms and pulled me towards him.

"Good morning princess." Adrian said as he kissed my temple. I wiggled so that we were facing each other.

"How long were you awake for?"

"Long enough to see you checking me out for about 982347346 minutes straight." He smirked.

I jokingly gasped. "I was not staring at you!"

"Of course you weren't."

I sighed, knowing that this Adrian would never stop teasing me about this so I subtly changed the subject.

"What's the time?"

"I know you're just trying to change the subject." He teased, bringing me closer towards him so that we were spooning.

"What are you talking about?" I replied sarcastically, turning around to face him to spontaneously lick his nose. He immediately wiped my saliva off and scrunched his nose in disgust.

"You're gross." He laughed

"You're cute when you scrunch your nose." I smiled

After having our little bantering session, we finally got out of bed realising that it was already 11:00am. Deciding that we would skip school, I grabbed a jar of Nutella and a spoon from the kitchen, laying across the living room in the clothes I wore to bed last night. Meaning that I still wasn't wearing pants. Adrian came down the stairs a few minutes later, only in a pair of sweatpants.

"Spongebob? Really?" He chuckled as he fed himself some of my Nutella.

"Get your own Nutella! And there's nothing wrong with Spongebob. I happen to love him. I mean, he would probably be a better boyfriend than you." I shrugged teasingly as I turned up the volume. It was my favourite episode, the one where Spongebob turned into a jellyfish because he loved jellyfish that much. That made me imagine myself as a jar of Nutella. How cool would I be? Shaking these thoughts from my head, I looked over at Adrian who was trying to talk to me.

"I'm sorry what?"

"I'm curious, what goes on in that head of yours?" Adrian shook his head. When I didn't reply he continued. "I mean, in the middle of a conversation you'll just completely zone out and not hear a word I'm saying."

"Oh, I was just thinking about how cool I'd be as a jar of Nutella. OH MY GOD THAT'S IT. I'LL BE NUTELLA FOR HALLOWEEN NEXT YEAR!!" I thought excitedly.

"Nope, forget I said that. I really don't want to know what's going on in your head."

Adrian continued to comment on everything that happened during the episode and I was actually relieved when it was over.

"Remind me never to watch Spongebob with you again." I sighed as I turned off the tv.

"But how unrealistic is it? Spongebob has a pet snail. Since when can snails live underwater?" He argued.

"Since now." I said stubbornly.

I looked down to see that my jar of Nutellla was now empty. With a frown, I headed to the kitchen to wash my spoon and threw the empty jar in the bin.
