#Callie's P.O.V#

I open my eyes and immediately shut them. It's too bright.

I groan and slowly open them, getting used to the light. I glance around and see Amelia isn't in bed, nor is she in the room. I stretch and stand up, then exit my room and go downstairs, where everyone is eating.

"Morning Callie." Joel greets as he sees me.

Lizzie and Amelia look up from their food as well, noticing I'm here. I wave and come in the room all the way. I glance at Amelia, who's blushing wildly.

I shrug it off and go to get pancakes.

#Amelia's P.O.V#

I wake up, slowly unravelling Callie from my arms. I open the door, carfully so it doesn't wake Callie up if it creaks. I sneak out of the room and go downstairs, where Lizzie and Joel and cooking breakfast.

"Morning guys." I greet, yawning.

"Good morning, Amelia. Breakfast is almost ready." Joel smiles, kissing Lizzie on the cheek.

"Okay." I nod.

After a little while, breakfast is done, and I grab a plate, as does Lizzie and Joel. Lizzie and I start eating as Joel comes to sit down.

"Morning Callie." Joel greets and footsteps lead to where we are.

I look up and look at Callie, my face going slightly red. The pyjama shorts she put on are a little small on her, but that makes her look amazing. Hot, actually.

Callie waves and walks off to get some food, and my eyes can't help but follow her. She opens up the cupboard above the sink, standing on her tippy toes and stretching her arm as far as she can to reach the plates, which makes her shirt rise a little.

She pulls down a plate, setting it on the counter and grabbing a spatula. She shifts her weight from leg to leg.

I don't realize how long and how obviously I'm staring, because I feel a nudge in my side, snapping me back to reality.

"Wh-what?" My face goes red.

"Watch what you're staring at, there." Lizzie says quiet enough so Callie doesn't hear, a partial smirk on her face.

I gulp. "I-uh... I wasn't-"

"Mhm, just be careful with her." Lizzie cuts me off, standing up to wash her plate.

I blush and look to see Callie coming to sit next to me. I bite my lip, but stop as I take another bite of my pancake.

"How'd you sleep?" I ask, earning a thumbs up in reply.

I nod, slightly blushing. I take one last bite of my pancakes and stand up to wash my plate. I walk back passed the table, but Callie grabs my shirt.

"Huh?" I turn around, blushing a little bit.

Callie pulls me closer, still sitting on the stool that she's been on. I tilt my head slightly as she leans in. We kiss for a few seconds then pull away.

"Your lips taste like syrup." I whisper, smiling.

She giggles and shakes her head, looking down.

"Callie?" I say, looking at her.

She looks up, tilting her head.

"You're beautiful." I smile.

Callie blushes and looks down again.

"Callliiieee!" I whine.

She glances up again.

"Look at me." I mumble.
