Cheryl’s alarm began annoyingly buzzing the next morning, immediately waking her up as she groaned into Tre’s warm chest which she was still snuggled into, hearing him groan too as he released her so that she could switch it off. She lay back on her own pillow, rubbing her eyes to try and wake herself up as Tre rolled onto his front with his eyes still tightly shut, not actually having to get up himself. As Cheryl lay, trying to build up to actually getting out of bed for a shower before she had to leave with Gary to meet Lily at the office, she thought about how she would much rather spend the whole day with Tre, especially as he was looking so adorable on the pillow next to her, seeming to have fallen back to sleep. After gazing down at him for a couple of minutes and hearing Gary starting to move around on the landing, she lightly kissed his cheek before dragging herself out of bed and towards the ensuite to start getting ready.
Cheryl had pulled on some skinny jeans with a faded grey leopard print pattern on them along with a brightly coloured neon green and black top which she wore under a trendy blazer, putting her hair into a loose side plait that draped over her shoulder. As she re-entered her bedroom, she tiptoed across to her chest of drawers to grab her small black clutch bag and was just about to leave before hearing a quiet, sweet American accent groaning her name, instantly making her turn around as she saw Tre had rolled back over and was looking over at her, a very tired expression on his face.
“Go back to sleep babe...I’m just quickly having some breakfast and then I’m going, you don’t need to get up” she smiled across at him but he beckoned her over by waving his hand nonetheless. “What?...” she whispered as she sat on the edge of the bed, looking down at him as he softly rested his hand on her leg and affectionately stroked it with his thumb.
“Cuddle before you go...” he groaned, making her scrunch her nose up at how cute he sounded before leaning over him and giving him a warm hug, feeling him affectionately rubbing her back as he held her close. “Mmmm ..you smell really nice” he mumbled over her shoulder before she lifted her head back up, smiling back at him.
“Aww thanks...you look so cute and cosy...haha...wish I could stay but I need to go babe” she stuck her bottom lip out adorably as she sweetly stroked his face, looking into his warm, chocolaty eyes gazing back at her. “Have a nice day gorgeous” she smiled happily before bowing her head back down and softly kissing his lips before standing back up as he watched her.
“You too baby...I’ll book the restaurant for 8 yeah?” he spoke quietly, still feeling tired.
“Yeah, sounds great bubs...see ya later” she quickly kissed him again before wandering out of the bedroom, closing the door behind her so that Tre could go back to sleep for a while.
“GARY! What the hell are you doing?!!!” Cheryl suddenly shouted as soon as she entered the kitchen, finding Gary stood by the sink looking like he was cutting his fingers off.
“Trying to get this *Ducking* stuff off my bloody nails!!! I can’t find your nail varnish remover so I've had to try and scrape it off with this knife, I’m not gannin to work looking like this!” he complained back, continuing to scratch away at his nails with the knife before Cheryl grabbed it off him, shaking her head in despair.
“You bloody idiot...ya gonna lose a flaming finger!...There’s some remover stuff in here ya plonker!” she breathed out, not quite believing what he had been doing as she opened a cupboard and grabbed the bottle out to pass to him.
“Oh silly me!...of course you keep your nail varnish remover in the kitchen cupboard!” he replied sarcastically, rolling his eyes as he sat on the table to start getting rid of his bright pink nails.
“Do you want a coffee before we go, ya nutter?” she asked as he nodded his head vigorously, always needing a good dose of caffeine before a day at work. “Do you know what the plan is?...me and Tre are going to Nobu for 8 so could we try and be finished by 6 at the latest?” she continued as she joined him at the table, passing him a cup of coffee as she began eating some yogurt and Muslea with some mixed berries scattered over the top, which Gary immediately scrunched his nose up at. “Haha...it’s nice, it’s healthy!” she giggled as she noticed his expression, playfully hitting his arm.
