Peter stood up, just staring at me with a smile. So did Danny and before I knew it they had both tackled me with a hug. It had been a day, only a day and I knew for the rest of my life I would be happy.

After a while of us just laying on top of each other hugging and talking, it started to get late so we headed off to bed. Peter took one bed and Danny and I took the other.

"Sorry, you mind sharing a bed with me do you? Pete and I couldn't fit in the same one" Danny said. I could see him blush a little, him being a little shy was pretty cute.  I didn't know why he was so shy though.

"Not at all" I said.

We all had got into bed and fell asleep around 1:20. Then in the middle of the night I woke up to a bit of movement. It was Danny. He was getting up. I sat up sleepily.

"Huuuny, come back to beeed." I said teasing him, then I shot him a little wink. My words startled him and he jumped.

"I didn't mean to wake you." He whispered. I had completely forgotten Peter was right next to us in the other bed. He wiggled around a bit, but he was still asleep. I couldn't believe how loud he was snoring. It made me wonder if he was okay.

"No its okay, what are you doing?" I looked over at the clock. It was 4:56.

"I'm going to sleep on the floor" He ran his fingers through his hair. He slowly started to shuffle away with a sheet wrapped around him.
"I feel like I'm taking up a lot of room and I'd feel bad if you couldn't sleep" He started starring at the floor.

"Its okay, you can come back!" I said. He seemed so quiet. He curled in his shoulders and continued to stare at the floor.

I small smile grew on my face.
"Please?......... You were keeping me warm, and its really cold in here."

He smiled, looked across from him at the wall. "Are you sure?" He asked. He had brightened up a bit.

I smiled and nodded. Then he made his way back under the blanket and curled up in the blanket, still looking down. Then he looked at me, then back down. I thought he was sweet, he made me smile. Then I scooted a bit closer to him, nearly touching.

"He does seems very sweet. Very shy, but sweet." I thought as I slowly drifted off to sleep.
