"Ant?" Dec called as he entered his friends house. Everything was silent.
He knew that Lisa was working on Strictly come dancing, but at least his best friend should be home.

"Ant?" he called again and this time he got an answer.
It was a silent moan coming from the living room.

Dec followed the noise and found his best friend lying on the sofa, looking very tired. He had probably just woken up.

"What are you doing here?" Ant mumbled sleepily.

"You shouldn't be sleeping, you know" Dec said, completely ignoring his question. "How do you wanna get over that jetlag?"

"Oh come on" Ant groaned. "It's not like we've got work to do" he yawned softly.
"And you can't tell me that you're not tired"

"I'm not" Dec lied. To be honest he felt just as tired as Ant, but he was determined to get over his jetlag as quickly as possible.

"We've left Australia 24 hours ago. Of course you're tired" Ant replied and rubbed at his eyes. "But if you insist" he sighed and stretched out his hand.

Dec took it, intending to help his friend get up. But Ant had something else in mind. As soon as Dec had taken his hand he pulled him down.

Dec yelped, lost his balance and fell on top of his best friend.

"Anth" he whined, but he was already struggling to keep his eyes open as soon as he had hit his friends chest.

"Just relax, pal" Ant sighed.

"Fine" Dec grumbled. "Still not tired though" he said and tried to stifle a yawn, but failed horribly.

"Yeah sure" Ant smiled and rubbed his back gently. "You're a nice blanket, you know."

"And you’re quite comfortable to lie on" Dec laughed softly and nestled his head in the crook of Ant's neck.

"Well I'm glad that's settled then. "You're really adorable sometimes, you know" Ant turned his head and kissed his forehead gently.

"I know" Dec smiled and closed his eyes as he enjoyed the close contact to his best friend. "Can we sleep now? I'm really tired" Dec yawned softly.

Ant laughed. "First you tell me that you're not tired and that you don't wanna sleep and now here we are" he chuckled.

"Sorry" Dec mumbled sleepily and wrapped his arms around Ant's shoulders like he would when they hug.

"It's okay pal. Go to sleep. I'm tired as well" Ant reassured and gave him another gentle kiss, this time on his cheek.

Dec didn't react and Ant thought that he had probably fallen asleep, but  when he closed his eyes to go to sleep as well, he felt his best friend shifting on top of him and a pair of soft lips settling on his cheek.

He fell asleep with a smile on his face.
