to say that it was hard to wake the pair up the next morning would be an understatement. timothee and amelia stayed on that rooftop until 4 in the morning. the only reason they ended up back in bed was because timothee had fallen asleep on the roof after drinking a bit more of the margarita mix drink they found in the fridge than amelia.
they were found on the bed sleeping in an amusing way: timothee was laying horizontally over amelia, their bodies forming a cross shape as they both breathed heavily. his long legs hung off of the edge of the bed and there was a puddle of drool on her shirt leading from his mouth.
timothee's mom took a few pictures before forcing them both to wake up so they can start heading back home.

halfway through the long car ride to go home, amelia's mother called her saying to meet up for breakfast at the IHOP a couple miles ahead.
amelia was driving this time as timothee was actually a bit hung over. his tall body was curled up in the passengers seat, the only thing covering him from being cold was one of amelia's sweaters that she draped over his body twenty minutes ago.
it was amelia's turn to watch the road for an ungodly amount of time, but she didn't mind. driving allowed her brain to relax a bit. more importantly, it allowed maximum time to admire timmy. merely twenty minutes into the car ride, amelia couldn't help herself as she stuck her hand into his hair and massaged his scalp as he tried to fall asleep ('after complaining that the car was shaking too much to the left and the earth was spinning to quickly to the right' he was speaking absurdly, amusing amelia from his hungover state.
"who was that?"
"what the he-timothee?! you've been awake?" amelia screamed as she tried to focus on not killing them both. for the past hour the car had been basically silent. the music volume at 1 and timothee's breathing was the only think filling the air. she was caught up in her thoughts the whole time.
he seemed to find her flustered state amusing as he leaned his head on his hand and watched her. "i-i- well yeah. i only woke up a few minutes ago though so don't be worried. i didn't hear any of your monologues or conversations with imaginary friends, lia." he grinned at her.

"speaking of monologues, are you gonna try out for any plays this year, timmy t?" she grinned back.
he cringed at the use of 'timmy t' before speaking," i don't know. maybe. i mean i should. this is our senior year, i'd probably regret it if i didn't." timothee loved acting,it was something amelia noticed early on whenever they would do awful plays in 1st or 2nd grade. timothee was always happiest when on stage. in freshman year, he decided not to try out for any plays that year as it 'wasn't cool.' he never regretted anything more. the plays that year were Macbeth and Peter Pan.
after that, timothee auditioned for every play since, and of course, he made it in, sometimes with big parts and sometimes with small ones. amelia even joined once too, but only because timothee begged and begged. it was junior year's The Little Mermaid. timothee was casted as Prince Eric as amelia was casted as Fish #7. honestly, the weeks that went into rehearsing and producing that play were miserable. timothee and amelia barely got to see each other as she never really needed to go to rehearsals but timmy did. they barely hung out with each other, timothee was always going out with the cast while amelia stayed back with a lame excuse. luckily, after the chaos was over, they went back to their normal lives, only a bit distant at first.
"what is it gonna be this year?" she questioned, adverting her eyes from the road to the boy.
"i think romeo and juliet." he snorted. he was imagining himself as romeo and amelia as juliet. it was pretty amusing to him to think about his lia on a stage with an accent.
amelia had just pulled into the parking lot of the IHOP as she hummed in response. she hoped he wasn't thinking about making her audition. being Fish #7 was enough showbiz for her.

the breakfast with their parents was in all means painful. amelia and timothee sat there red faced as the parents amusingly questioned them about why they found empty alcohol bottles in the dishwasher or why they heard footsteps on the roof.
as soon as the check was paid, the pair ran to the car to escape the torture.
"that was humiliating." timothee laughed, now in the drivers seat.
"god! i really thought we were being quiet up there! i think the smirnoffs got to you faster ,timmy t." lia laughed as she put her seatbelt on.
soon, the car was filled only with the sound of 'Second Time' by Bruno Major. amelia sang under her breath as she looked out the window at the endless road. she turned her head to look at the boy next to her. both of their stomachs felt butterflies.
she reached over to push a short curl out of his face, causing him to smile. she smiled too as she realized he was actually growing it out.
her hair trailed down to his cheek, rubbing her thumb across it. his skin felt hot. she knew there was a blush forming under her hand.
'Yes I'm Changing' by Tame Impala began to play. the slow beat easing into the atmosphere.
he grabbed her hand with his before he put it against his lips, his eyes still on the road.
she smiled as she pulled their joined hands towards her lap. "this was a fun weekend, timothee."
"yeah, it was, huh?" he couldn't help but grin as he thought about all they did in little time. "can't believe we kissed in the rain."
"i know, you're c-"
"god! did i really think that wa- i'm so cliche!" his face cringed as he laughed.
"yeah you're quite the charmer. really, pneumonia AND a kiss. wow i have to cool down!" lia joked.
"you gotta punch me in the face next time i do something like that, lia."
"gee! you promise?!" she teased.
he looked over at her for a second before returning his eyes back to the road, repeating this a few times.
"what?"
"i wish i wasn't driving."
"why?"
"i wanna kiss you so badly right now." ••• a/n oK THIS chapter wasn't that great in my opinion it's like 2 a.m.
