Daniella's Up Rise

Chapter 7

-Dani's POV-

I don't know how long I was asleep but I'm glad it was a real long time. The room was dark because of the closed blinds but there was still sun shining slightly through them. I was dreaming like a rock until there was a knock at the door. My eyes fluttered open at the sound of continuous knocking. I don't wanna get up unless I slept for two days and by the sun shine that was coming outside, I don't think I did.

Just answer the door. The faster you answer the door, the faster you can go back to sleep.

I dragged myself out of the warm cloud of heaven and lazily made my way to the door. I rubbed my face and reached for the door handle. The outside lighting burned my eyeballs. I winced  at the stinging in my eyes. Just another reason why I shouldn't get up today. Sheamus's pale skin was also bright against the hotel hall. 

He smiled down at half-woken me, "Glad you're alive, Fella."

"Mhmm," I mumbled. I leaned against the doorway and my eyes started to close again. I couldn't believe how tired I was.

"Uh, well," He thought for a second, "Have you been asleep all this time?"

"I don't know, what time is it?" I looked around, lost and confused. Seriously, how long was asleep?

Sheamus looked down at his silver watch and read the time, "1:47." 

"PM?" Was it really that late? I went to bed around 9PM, and now it's 1:47PM? That was over 16 hours of sleep. 

"Yeah, laddie. You've been asleep awhile," He laughed, "So I brought you some Chinese for lunch," He held up a whole stack of boxes and containers of Chinese food. There were about four boxes in total. seemed like a lot of food. Just then I heard my stomach growl, "I guess you kinda need it."

I blushed, "Well, you can come in while I freshen up." I stepped to the side to let him in. He placed the food on the shelf top next to the TV. I gave a yawn and knew I had to make this quick yet good. I picked up a brush and started combing out my tangled hair. I heard styrofoam crackling as I wet a cloth and washed my face with it.

"Damn, it's so dark in here." I heard Sheamus complain behind me.

"There's a reason for that, Sheamus. Ha, I mean, really, how do you think I slept for so long?" I asked him. 

I watched him open the blinds and let the sun light in through the mirror. It didn't hurt anymore to know for the light to come into my eyes, I adjusted easily. After I was finished washing my face, I moved over back to the bed and grabbed on of the boxes.

I opened it and inside contained shrimp fried rice, my favorite. I took a pair of chopsticks and starting to dig into the fried rice, "How'd you know I loved fried rice?" 

Sheamus shrugged, "I just took one of my favorites, and things ranging from ribs, chicken, and noddles and fried rice."

"Thanks, Sheamus," He smiled and gave a nod to say 'You're welcome'.

I devoured my fried rice. Wow. I was hungrier than I thought.

Well, 16 hours of sleep will do that to ya.

Good point. Sheamus had something with clear, noddles and what seemed like sesame chicken.

"Fella, mind turning on the tele?" He suddenly asked me. I took a breath from my fried rice for a minute to grab the remote and toss it to him. He turned on to some sports channel. Eh, I wasn't complaining. 

We sat in silence watching the highlights of a baseball game from last night. Then out of the blue, I heard a yipping from a dog. Then it stopped. What was that?
