The after party...

Well, that was eventful.

Right now I'm sitting in the small double bed in the back of the van with six other people, Joe, Seth, Niaomi, Lewis, Nate and Jack all huddled under two duvets with coffee and tea, it's 3.30am and we just got out the sea.

"What the hell did we do that for" I chuckle hugging my mug nearer

"I blame seth" Jack says smiling sweetly, we all snort and laugh.

"How did you get the that conclusion sweets" Seth drawls lazily smirking at Jack.

"Well you supplied the alcohol that made me want to do it" he almost manages to keep a straight face  but cracks at the last minute "Alright alright he says putting his hands up as Naomi and Joe wack him from either side, "it was my idea".

"I'm just upset Nay and the Songbird didn't do what you did Jack" Joe says smirking and shaking his head opposite me whilst keeping eye contact with me.

Now it's Lewis and my turn to hit Joe.

"Jack I can't believe you actually went in naked" I laugh as I pull the navy blue and burgundy duvet back over me.

"Well I didn't want to dissapoint you ladies" his eyes twinkle at me in the way only Jack's can, a look that installs fear into any authority figure that sees it.

I can't help but smile back at him.

"Why don't you have heaters in this bloody tin can" Joe interjects moodily

"I'm not that cold anymore" Nate pipes up from the corner, there are murmurs of agreement around the van.

"Fine I'm going for a walk to warm up I'll be back in ten" he huffs.

"Whoa who lit the fuse in his tampon?" Niaomi mutters just after the door slams shut.

"Who knows, want to play cards against humanity anyone?" Jack grins around 

I watch sadly, twisting my ring,
- something I do when I'm feeling tense or uneasy - as Joe walks away lighting something that's definitely not a candy stick I can't help but feel my exchange with Jack had something to do with his sudden mood change. When we were in the water he stayed away from me avoiding eye contact, but I couldn't help jut notice his jaw dropping as I ran down the beach in my bikini Baywatch style.

Not that my boobs are big enough for Baywatch....

••••••○••••••

The beams of dusty morning light shine through the thin curtains, the suns already warm on ny face, i squeeze my eyes and wriggle my face into my pillow and pull my lips through my teeth instantly remembering the kiss me and joe shared last night on the beach.

"Sweet dreams songbird?" Joe's voice whispers softly.

I open one eye to look up at him, suddenly realising I'm not in fact resting my head on a particularly hard pillow but instead on Joe's chest his hoodie feels soft and smells good, it's comforting and when I don't make any sign on moving he chuckles softly so as not to wake the others, I can practically feel his smirk even though I've closed my eyes again.

We stay in silence for a while as I listen to his breathing, after a while I open my eyes to watch his chest rise and fall, he rests his chin on my head, only when Jack shifts his position so his legs rest right across mine and Joe's legs do we move.

"That felt right" Joe smiles sheepishly, I smile and push my hair back off my face nodding slightly.

"Hngguhhhgg" Niaomi moans from next to me, Joe's looks at her in alarm.

"She just needs coffee" I smile "stat" I add so I don't sound so blunt "so do I actually" I extract myself from beneath Jack's legs and climb over Seth whos starfished across one end of the bed and Nate who's curled up in the corner and get to the kitchen part, I hold a mug up and shake it in Joe's direction raising an eyebrow as I notice he was watching my bum, all of a sudden I notice what I'm wearing ; a baggy dark grey v neck t-shirt, some boxer style pyjama short shorts, barley visable beneath the t-shirt, some cream wooly socks, my anklet just poking out the top, I shuffle my feet awkwardly but, as soon as he sees I've noticed he winks and nods for the coffee.

The strong smell of coffee wakes everyone up, other than Jack who's still pinning Joe to the bed.

I put some fairly chilled out music on through the radio and for the rest of the morning we sit around drinking coffee, listening to music, with the doors open looking over the beach and the sea, the sunlight glistening welcomingly on the calm, dancing waves.
