The next morning, Tre groaned quietly as he woke up, stretching his arms in the air before spotting Cheryl lying peacefully next to him. The night had been so hot that both of them had slept in only their underwear to try and keep cool; this made Tre smile as he leaned up slightly on his elbows and looked down at her perfectly toned back, right down to where the sheets covered her, just below her tattoo above her bum. Every morning he was taken aback by how perfect she looked and today was no different as he gazed adoringly at her, softly tracing his fingers lightly against her back. Her face was facing the opposite direction to him but as he continued stroking her soft skin, he noticed her arms beginning to move slightly as she started to wake up. “Bambi!...” he spoke in a sing song voice, grinning as he heard her groan quietly before turning around to lie on her back, looking straight up at him, her adorable dimples already present, melting his heart. “Morning princess!” he smiled sweetly as he bowed his head and kissed her lips softly, feeling her wrap her arms around him as she rubbed his skin lightly with her thumbs.
“Haha...you look really happy this morning...you’re so stunning” she giggled as he lifted his head back up, moving his leg to rest over hers as he delicately rubbed her feet with his own.
“Of course I look happy!... I've just woken up to the most beautiful sight there is!” he replied cheerfully as she pouted cutely before kissing his lips again. “You've got a lovely tan off yesterday you know...you look all shimmery and golden!” he chuckled as she beamed back.
“Have I?!...yes yes yes!” she smiled excitedly as Tre trailed his finger softly around her face, loving the feel of her skin to his touch. “Haha...this really is like a proper holiday now that I've got a tan, Lily will be so jealous!” Cheryl joked whilst he giggled at her.
Tre continued gazing infatuated into her deep, chocolate coloured eyes as he gently stroked her hair, making her smile. “...Why are you so soppy this morning?” she scrunched her nose up as she noticed him getting completely lost in her, being able to see her own eyes reflected in his.
He smiled sweetly before replying “I’m just so in love with you...you’re an amazing woman Cheryl, you've made me so happy... I've dreamt about you all night!”
Cheryl felt like she could literally burst from the amount of butterflies which had immediately erupted inside of her at his words and the adoring look he gave her as he said them. She smiled brightly, her dimples beaming before wrapping her arms tightly around his back as he lay over her, sharing such a loving hug. “I've never been this happy in my life ever before Tre, seriously... I love you so much...I always will” she spoke softly over his shoulder, meaning every word.
The couple had stayed in bed cuddling up for a good half an hour before Cheryl tore herself away from Tre to have a shower after wriggling free from his grip as he had tried stopping her from getting up. As soon as she returned, Tre went to have his as she began drying her hair, creating loose curls which flowed over her shoulders like a waterfall. Despite having already got on amazingly well with both his Mom and his grandma, Cheryl still felt slightly nervous about meeting everybody else at the garden party later that afternoon. She had seen how close Tre was with his family and how much it meant to him that she got on well with them too, which only added to the stress of making a good impression and so began putting a bit of makeup on to distract herself. She smiled as she seen Tre re-enter the room and wolf whistled at him which made him burst out laughing. He jokingly strutted over to her wearing only a pair of black combat shorts, still drying his bare torso with a towel. “Hmm... your hair smells lovely!” he groaned as he stood behind her, leaning down to rest his head on her shoulder as she nuzzled her head against his.
“I think your gran was right...you asked for that coconut body wash for yourself didn't you? ...you smell like a fricken palm tree!” she smirked as he began giggling, gently kissing her cheek.
