Sooner (One Shots) ALYDEN

2 A.M. (Part 2)

You still look like a movie
You still sound like a song
My God this reminds me
Of when we were young

- When we were young, Adele

Dennise woke up by a slight movement on the soft white bed mattress she's lying. She's leaning on her left side and found it hard to open her eyes. Her groggy head is not helping too. She reached her hand on the space beside her, only to find it vacant. She tried to open her sleepy eyes. Her vision is blurry but it didn't hide Alyssa's slender bare back sitting across her. The latter trying to hook her bra on.

" You're going?" she asked voice still husky from the good night sleep, if it can be considered sleeping at all.

" Ahuh.." Alyssa answered without looking at her while putting her undies on.

" But.." her protest was held when Alyssa turned and face her. Her eyes landed freely on the latter's almost naked body.

Seeing how Dennise reacted from the view, Alyssa naughtily smirked and leaned on the bed, giving Dennise a painfully slow and lingering kiss and ended it just when she felt hands anchoring on her neck.

Dennise's eyebrow arch, cueing Alyssa to explain.

" I need to go to your kitchen and make us some coffee." Alyssa said.

" Oh.." Dennise muttered.

Alyssa smiled and left her there after grabbing Den's fresh shirt from the drawer.

Dennise felt how her body sore when she tried to stretch her arms and yawn. She reached her phone beside the bed and glanced at the clock on the wall. It was exactly 6 A.M.

She had 8 missed calls and 10 unread messages. 5 calls from LA and 3 from Ella. She didn't bother to read the texts and checked her email instead. Nothing seemed important.

She immerse from bed and rest her back against the headboard. The cold morning breeze kissed her exposed skin, so she embraced her knees.

"Feel cold?" Alyssa said as she enters the room with two mugs of coffee and settled herself on a chair across the coffee table beside the window. She hurriedly took a sip and signaled Dennise to get up from bed and join her, which the latter followed immediately with just the soft fabric of white comforter covering her body.

This made Alyssa smile sheepishly.

" What?" Den asked.

Alyssa just shook her head and avoided Den's look.

But what surprise her is when Dennise chose to sit on her lap, her back against Alyssa's face. She took a sip of her own coffee and and sigh.

" I miss coffee with you Ly."

Alyssa sneaked her hands around Den's waist and nuzzled her face on her bare back. " I miss this too, Den." She murmured.

This made Dennise smile, and leaned on Alyssa some more.

" So where will you be today?"

Dennise casually asked while occasionally sipping her mug. But she realized her question might raise Alyssa's eyebrow considering that technically, Alyssa's itinerary for today is not an obligation to report to her.

But Alyssa just shrugged her shoulder. " Here. It's raining outside."

Dennised just nods.

" But I mean, if you don't mind. I can just drive home din naman kung may gagawin ka or may bisita k-"
