Andys P.O.V
It's two o'clock in the morning. Sonny, Shannon and Jumpnow have just left the house so it's just us three boys conversing at the kitchen table. It only now occurs to me that Alex is no longer asleep on the couch. My eyes wonder around the room.
"I put her in your bed" Shaun answers the question I didn't even ask out loud.
"I guess it's time I went to bed too" I inform both Bradie and Shaun whilst getting up from my seat.
Shaun and Bradie exchange grins.
"A bit eager to go join Alex in bed are we?" Bradie accuses.
"A bit jealous are we Bradie?" I snap back at him.
That seems to have shut them both up. I begin the walk to my room but it seems this joke isn't over after all as Shaun chants "Goodnight lover boy" when he knows I'm too far away to come back and hit him. I just let it slide.
No one knows the seriousness of feelings I have for Alexandria. I'm surprised they haven't guessed though, I tend to unintentionally give it away at times. We've been friends for eight years, even longer, and even though we've both dated other people there's always been a spark between us. A relationship with Alex is one I'm confident will last, but I'm not quite sure it'll ever happen.
When I walk into my room the lava lamp on the bed-side table is switched on which illuminates Alex's sleeping face. I don't bother getting changed completely, I just remove my skinny jeans and crawl under the covers slowly so I don't wake her.
I'm startled by the sound of her teeth quietly chattering. She's cold. I move my body closer to hers and I can feel that she's curled up in a ball to keep warm. As more of my warmth comes into contact with her I feel legs stretch out so we're lying parallel to each other. I feel slight chills when my skin comes into contact with hers, it's surprising how frozen her skin is. I suck it up and put my arm around her slowly and gently. I watch her face change from tense to relaxed as her whole body warms up, a satisfactory result.
She's pretty when she sleeps, but no where near as pretty as she is when she's awake. Her pale pink lips still taunt me the same as they do when she's awake but now I don't have her intensly large blue eyes to compliment them. She looks so innocent and peaceful, I just lay for a while looking at her. Her eyes open in a sudden shot, but only for a split second while she moves in closer to me. I chuckle to myself as I cuddle up to her more. She's warm now from top to bottom.
I don't waste anymore time, I let the pressure of my eyelids wanting to close take over. I finally fall asleep to the relaxing sound of her loud breathing.
Alexandrias P.O.V.
I'm sitting at Bradie and Andys breakfast table with the company of only Shaun and Bradie. Andy is still fast asleep where I left him in his room. I felt him come in to bed last night, I have no idea what time but I imagine it'd be late considering it was a while after I was put in there. It's a beautiful morning, I can see the sunlight shining through all of the windows in the house. It's a huge difference to the chill weather that we experienced last night. I can't complain, I had Andy to keep me warm. Usually when I stay at any of their houses it's Shaun I'd sleep with, it was nice to wake up in Andys arms this morning.
Bradie offers to make Shaun and I a coffee, just as he gets up from the table the living dead decides to join us. Andy walks out of his room in only his boxers, with his hair sticking up in all different directions. He stops at edge of the table and flexes his arms behind his head as a stretch , which I must say I find extremely attractive. But I find everything Andy does attractive.
"You're in your underwear, and your hair is an utter mess" Shaun starts to say, but takes a pause to look my way. "What did you guys do last night?" he finishes.
I hear Bradie roar with laughter from the kitchen, when I look at Andy to find his reaction the question Shaun asked he just winks at me suggestively and pulls a t-shirt over his head. By this point I am feeling extremely awkward and embarrassed so I decide I'll join Bradie in the kitchen. He hands me a mug of coffee, of course he gives me the spider-man mug. I'm the only person he allows to drink from it. I'm glad to have a best friend like Bradie, he's the sincerity that balances the joking personalities of the other two. Don't get me wrong, there's not one thing I dislike about Shaun and Andy but sometimes a girl needs someone to vent to.
I glance at the clock, it's ten past nine. Approximately and hour and a half until I have work. I'm glad I have an excuse to leave this awkward situation. I'll see them again tonight though, Andy and I are staying at Shauns, Bradie can never hang out with us on Saturday nights because he has work.
"I'm going to go" I direct at them all. "I have work soon"
"Awwwwwww" Shaun moans. "Gimme a hug then".
I smile at his request and walk to him, thinking of how much I'll miss him makes me almost throw myself onto him. When we pull apart he ruffles his hands through my hair, he's done it since were were kids. As much as I say I hate when he does it, I secretly love it.
"Ay, where's mine!" Andy protests.
I hug Andy, when he hugs me he always lifts me off the ground a little bit. It's one of the many reasons I love recieving hugs from Andy . I hug Bradie without him having to ask, before I leave I take a second to wave at all three of them one last time and then I leave the premises.
