Chapter 197
As Tre gradually began waking up the next morning, the sudden realisation that he was in his own bed in his own apartment but for once, wasn’t lying by himself, filled him with such joy that he couldn’t help but smile softly to himself as he could hear Cheryl’s quiet breathing next to him while she continued sleeping. He could hear that it still seemed quite horrible outside as the wind blew against his window and the pitter pattering of rain could also be heard, but it didn’t matter because he was in the best mood ever. He yawned as he leaned up slightly to see what the time was on the alarm clock standing on his bedside table, the blue LED lights showing that it was just after 9am. As he turned back around, he felt a little fluttering in his stomach as he gazed down at Cheryl peacefully dreaming, her long, dark hair swept over one shoulder with her bare back revealed as Tre’s silvery grey sheets stopped just above her bum. He couldn’t get over how beautiful she looked and just lay watching her for a good while, admiring her smooth, bronze back and the 2 little dimples that she had at the bottom of it, almost hidden by the tattoo that she was in the middle of getting completed. Her face looked so unbelievably fresh despite it being first thing in the morning, her soft rose coloured lips standing out against her olive coloured skin which had light brown freckles dotted around, mainly over her nose and across her forehead, always making Tre smile, just as her stunningly long, dark eyelashes did which were softly resting on her cheeks, hiding her molten chocolate eyes which he also loved and took his breath away each time he gazed into them.
Realising that she was going to be getting picked up around 10.30, he thought he’d better start waking her up and so began lightly grazing the back of his finger up and down her back, shuffling closer to her before he began softly placing small kisses on her shoulder, noticing her legs starting to move slightly under the sheets and her fingers starting to stir on the pillow where her hand was rested. Tre smiled before he began sweetly nuzzling his nose against her cheek, making her nose twitch slightly before she gave a quiet moan, finally waking up as he lightly kissed her lips until she slowly opened her eyes and kissed him back, an adorable smile instantly breaking out across her own face to match his.
“Morning Bambi” he adoringly spoke in his American accent, gazing into her warm, dreamy eyes that he’d been waiting to open as he laid his head right next to hers on the pillow, still soothingly stroking up and down her back which felt so lovely and relaxing to her.
“Morning...haha...last night was amazing...all of it!” she softly giggled, making his smile grow more as he nodded and lightly kissed the tip of her nose, watching her eyes sparkle. “I wish I could just stay all day with you...just cuddle up on the sofa and watch films all day and eat rubbish while it rains outside” she quietly told him, bringing her hand up to stroke the side of his face while he scrunched his nose up, wanting nothing more than for that to happen.
“Mmmm...That would be perfect...and have hot chocolate with cream and marshmallows...the full works” he joined in as she groaned, thinking that sounded so good. “Haha...damn those dancers not being good enough yesterday!” he joked as she began giggling again before he lifted his head up to rest on her shoulder, cuddling into her as he buried his head into her fragrant hair, and nestled into her neck, feeling so completely in love with her that he just wanted her to stay forever.
“I had a dream about you last night...you’d gone really old fashioned and you were always walking around in a full suit with the waistcoat and top hat and everything...it must have been from watching you tap dancing last night...haha” she chuckled, making him lift his head back up and lean on his elbow, grinning back at her.
“Haha...it was actually quite nice showing you them old performances, it’s very amusing watching you freaking out about little things...even when you’re repeatedly slapping my leg or cutting off the blood supply to my arm from squeezing it so hard!...haha” he joked as she innocently bit her bottom lip, trying to look sorry.
