Sleepwalking

I awoke in the middle of the night to the warmth of another body pressed against my bare back. Further beneath the covers, my pyjama covered legs were pinned against the mattress by the weight of another leg on top of mine.

Andy.

I pushed myself back into the warmth, bringing my hand down to cover the one resting on my hip.

The gentle action evoked a reaction from the boy behind me; gentle stirring told me he was waking up.

On the table next to the bed was a clock that showed the time to be 2:11am in red led lights. 

Strange, I didn't notice a clock on the bedside last night... It's also way to early to be awake...

Comfortably warm and content, I rolled over in Andy's arms, nuzzling into his chest without thinking. Just the brush of my noise and lips against the hollow of his throat was enough to elicit a noise from him.

It didn't sound quite right though... The noise... It didn't sound like the familiar deep mumbles I usually woke up to in the mornings...

I blinked to focus my vision in the light and tilted my head back slightly.

It didn't sound low enough to be Andy; the mumble was softer... higher...

It sounded more like-

"Jinxx!" I squeaked in the dark, jolting backwards slightly as Jinxx's brown eyes shot open, staring into mine with confusion.

"What the fuck? Lukass?! Wha-?" he questioned, blinking his eyes rapidly and shuffling into a sitting position. "Jesus Christ, I thought you were Sammi!"

"Sammi?" I questioned, trying to make sense of the jumble of things in my head at that moment.

Jinxx brushed his fringe out of his face before rubbing his eyes, obviously taking a second to collect himself.

"Sammi's my girlfriend; she stays the night, sometimes. Obviously my brain just thought you were her since I'd just woken up and evidently didn't think about the fact she wasn't here yesterday". A moment of silence passed before Jinxx spoke up again, sounding a mix of confused and amused. "What are you doing in my bed, by the way?"

I was wondering the exact same thing; there was only one answer for it, though, and it's fairly embarrassing. 

"I don't know, I must have sleepwalked in here... I used to do it as a kid... I think I got up to use the bathroom at some point? I don't even know, but, yeah, awkwards!" I giggled nervously, before realising I really should leave Jinxx to go back to sleep. "Um, yeah, so sorry about that! Anyway, I'm going to bed, well, Andy's bed... Yeah, goodnight, Jinxx!" I hummed as I darted up, blushing like crazy and forever grateful that the lights were out. 

Before he could reply, I was out the door and heading back down to the end of the hallway, where Andy's room was.

Inside, the room was dark, except for the low light emanating from the doorway I was coming in through. Even in the low light, though, I could see the shape of Andy's body under the covers.

He hadn't woken up.

Thank fuck!

Sighing slightly with relief that Andy hadn't been awoken by my unconscious adventure to Jinxx's room, I climbed carefully back under the covers and re-took my place against Andy's side.

Just as my eyelids started to droop, I heard the voice I should've woken up to.

"If you're sighing because you think I didn't see you sleepwalk into Jinxx's bed, then you're wrong. I saw and I laughed, you weren't exactly graceful at getting out of bed" he chuckled quietly, wrapping an arm around me and burying his face on top of my hair. 

Lightly, I smacked his side, putting on my best un-amused tone.

"Oh, so you saw, but decided that instead of waking me up, you'd let me embarrass myself! Thanks, Andy, thank you very much". I didn't even try to conceal the smile from my voice as I finished my sentence, I was just glad Jinxx didn't have an embarrassing story to blackmail me with, to be quite honest.

"Yeah, I'm evil like that! Anyway, I'm tired, so for the second time tonight, goodnight, Lukass". he pressed a kiss to my forehead before resting his head back on the pillow.

With a smile, I settled back down as well, once again content.

"Goodnight, Andy".
