Y/N P.O.V. 

I heard snickering in the background which brought me back into reality with a start. I looked at the reflection in the window and found see Tom sitting next to me, looking between the back of my head and his phone.

I had an idea then and there. I closed my eyes and feigned sleep, then switched from facing the window to facing towards him. This took Tom by surprised, and from under my eyelashes I could see him sit there for a while, blushing. I slumped over onto his shoulder as he relaxed and put his arm around me as I continued to "sleep".

I heard footsteps approaching and it was only then that Tom withdrew his arm from around me and sat normally. I let out a sigh involuntarily. Stupid secret...

"Aww, look at Y/n sleeping on Tom's shoulder." I assumed it was Anthony saying that. It certainly sounded like him.

"Yeah, she just kinda of plopped here," Tom explained to him.

"I still ship it." I know for certain that was Chris, walking past us.

"I ship Audra and Robert. Go bother them," Tom retorted.

"I did until Robert got embarrassed and mad," Chris whisper-yelled back.

Scarlett interrupted their squabble. "Just let the kids sleep, guys."

Which made Chris and Sebastian laugh there butts off.

"Thank you, anyways," Tom told her, chuckling. He went back to his phone and I peeked at what it was he was doing. Talking to Haz. Predictable.

A few minutes later and I actually fell asleep. Can you really blame me?

Tom's P.O.V.

I had a feeling Y/n had been faking it before, but now she was actually calm and still. If I might have been willing to just move her to the side before, now I definitely wasn't going to. She looked so sweet and relaxed now...

I didn't want to ruin it. I looked around me and found Audra passed out in one chair, Chris asleep in another, Scarlett sleeping with her headphones on, Anthony apparently thinking about something, Sebastian asleep on the floor for some reason, and Robert somehow upside down on a chair, also asleep.

I laughed a bit at the last two before realizing I was the last person actually fully awake. I took this chance to cradle Y/n in my arms, pulling her closer to me and onto my lap a ways. She duged her head into my chest, and I smiled.

Hoping that this wouldn't come back to bite me, I put my head on hers and allowed myself to fall asleep. The only excuse I would have if questioned was a weak, "I cradle the nearest thing in my sleep." It was worth it, but I was left with a question bouncing around in my head:

How long can I keep this a secret?
