Perfect Fantasy (a Magcon Fanfiction)

Chapter 10 #leavinikea

Ashley's P.O.V.

Hayes and I decided to sleep on a big pile of unused pillows. Don't ask me why but we did. We layed there on our sides facing each other with about 3 inches between us. He was sound asleep. I couldn't sleep because my mind we filled with other the memories I had made that day with Hayes.

I remembered back to when we first got into ikea. He held my hand as we jumped from couch to couch pretending the floor was lava, just like I used to do as a kid. Then Shawn came running to us telling us that we were going to be playing hide and seek throughout the store. We met the others at a certain meeting point and I remembered noticing that Sam and Cam were missing. Then they clarified that since they were the last 2 found, they would automatically be the first to search for us.

We then nominated Aaron to call the two when he had found his hiding place. That's when Hayes told me that we would split up. I was disappointed but then he explained that they would think we were hiding together and it'd be like a distraction. I agreed once that was covered.

After we all quit playing hide and go seek, Hayes and I built a fort and settled inside to cuddle and watch movies together on his laptop. It was nice until Jack J had to jump onto our fort and crush it. We were too lazy to build a new one so we went out on a quest for the comfiest pillows for us to sleep on.

Hayes fell asleep after that. We were talking about our future together and I saw him starting to daze off but he fought to stay awake for me. I then granted him permission to sleep and he crashed. And that lead me to this moment.

To be honest I was somewhat disappointed on how the day had played out. I thought it would be a fun yet romantic way to spend our last days together. We were leaving 2 days from now. It was really fun being with him, just not very romantic. I then decided to cuddle up to his chest and fall asleep.

Sam's P.O.V.

The next morning i woke to my phone alarm going off. We had to leave in an hour because then people would start to come in. I turned the alarm off. it was only then that I realized that I had 2 strong arms wrapped around me. I turned in his arms, careful not to wake him. He started to stir but never woke up. I looked up to his face and really took it in. I loved how he was so quiet when he slept. He looked so peaceful, I just didn't have it in me to wake him up. Then a wide smile spread across his lips. Well that was a dead giveaway that he was already awake anyways.

Then his eyes slowly opened staring straight into mine. "I could get used to waking up like this in the morning." He said in a rough morning voice.

I laughed at his statement and you can hear the echo of my laugh through the store. We looked up to the ceiling amazed as we listened to my laugh getting quieter and quieter.

We then got up and woke up all the others. Together we cleaned up this place so no one would know we were there. It was definitely a struggle getting back up through the vents but we made a plan. Everyone would lift up the person and they would climb into the vent. Anyone already in the vent would help pull them up. Then it was left with Cam and I.

We stared awkwardly at each other for a while. It felt like an eternity but was really just a few seconds. He slowly walked over to me placing his hands on my hips. "Ok so how are we gonna do this?" I asked quietly.

"Well you can get on my shoulders and then slowly stand up until your standing on my shoulders, then the others will grab your arms and pull you up." He responded.

"Are you crazy!" I shouted grabbing the others attention. "That will never work" I said doubtingly.

"Yes it will I swear" he reassured. "Just take it slow and trust me. I'll be hear to catch you if you fall" he whispered the last part.

I nodded unsure until I realized something." How are you going to get out?" I asked

"Don't worry about it. I can jump and use things along the wall to pull myself up." He said like that was going to be easy.

"Ok." I mumbled nonchalantly. He lifted me so I was sitting I his shoulders and we were right under the vent. I used the wall to balance as I slowly placed my right foot on his right shoulder. Then repeated for my left foot. I was standing in his shoulders and balancing with my hands on the wall. He held onto my ankles to also help me balance.

Nash reached down to try and grab my hand to pull me up, the others hanging onto him so he doesn't fall over. Trust them. I would say to myself.

I reached up to grab Nash's hand but couldn't reach. The ceilings were just far too high. "Jump" Cam directed below me.

"No way!" I said. I was scared. I trusted them but I just couldn't bring myself to do it."I can't. I'll never make it!" I admitted to him shameful of my lack of self confidence.

"Yes you can! I believe in you now you just have to believe in yourself."Cam advised. Just then I bent my legs, and jumped up off Cam's shoulders with my arms stretched out. You would think it would hurt him but he looked unharmed.

Nash's hands were right there and just as they were about to meet with mine, I dropped. It was all happening so fast but I felt as if I was going in slow motion.

I looked down to find the floor rising. I turned so my back would land on the floor instead of my stomach. I remembered hearing that it was best to land in your butt so I figured this was close enough. I was about 6 feet from the ground when the same strong arms I was laying in this morning wrapped around me.

Everything felt surreal. I couldn't move. Or open my eyes for that matter. He was holding me bridal style and I was clutching onto him for dear life. I slowly brought myself to open my eyes to be met with the gaze of another concerned pair.

"Are you ok? Oh my god why did I ever tell you to do that!!! you could've gotten hurt. I am so sorry I am such an idiot. I hope your ok. Please tell me your ok." He told me while laying me on a nearby couch. I can hear the others from in the vents freaking out about my safety. It was nice knowing I had so many people to care this much about me.

Cam kept rumbling on and on about how sorry he was and all the others were shouting, asking if I was ok. And I was because Cam saved me like he promised earlier. All the noise tuned out and I just saw him. He was sitting over me looking into my eyes. He has a worried expression all over them but he finally shut up for he noticed me looking at him. He started to lean in and so did I.
