Half past three in the morning and Dotty is somewhat giving her father directions to Fionn's house. Half asleep, she fortunately tells him the right ones and they pull up outside of his house. Silently, she begs for him to be awake and not still asleep like she is worried about him being. That boy loves his sleep.Knocking on his door, she thankfully heard shuffling before it opens to a groggy Fionn, whoas naturally curly hair falls over his eyes and had a SnapBack on his head. "Morning sunshine." Dotty greets, "do you need any help?"
Fionn shook his head, "I've got it all, thanks though, love." He smiles softly, pulling the door shut behind him, a suitcase in his hand and one on the floor with his back pack on his back.
"Come one, let me take one." Dotty presses on, pouting at him.
"Gah! It's too early to resist...fine!" Dotty grins triumphantly and he slips off his back pack, letting her carry that.
"I did mean a suitcase but sure, whatever. Like you said, it's too early." She led him to the car and opened the car boot letting him out his suitcases in the boot before shutting it.
"Keep this in with you, that's where mine is." She told him holding up his bag that he took off of her. "Anyway, you're behind my dad." She said getting into the car behind the passenger seat.
"Morning, Fionn." Greeted Emma and Chris simultaneously as the pair strapped themselves in.
"Morning,"Returned Fionn, "Thank you for this, I hope it isn't any trouble."
Chris let out a small laugh, glancing in the rear-view mirror, "We wouldn't have suggested it otherwise, you are very welcome."
Fionn sent the director a small smile before leaning back in his seat as the car pulled off of his drive way. Dotty slipped her shoes off like usual and curled her legs beneath her looking at Fionn who watched her in amusement.
"Comfortable?" He chuckled, rubbing his eyes.
"Very." Dotty hummed in response and smiled when Fionn took his shoes off too. He reached out taking her hand in his and ran his thumb over hers.
Dotty stared at their hands for a while, taking in the way his hands looked and how they felt so soft. His nails were always clean and cut short. Her eyes began to flutter as her eyelids grew heavy, Fionn's thumb movement being so soothing and putting her to sleep. Her head drooped and soon dropped fully.
Fionn was in his own world when he felt Dotty's forehead land on their hands. He jumped slightly in shock but shuffled over pulling her body up so she was leaning into his chest. It wasn't long before he too, fell asleep, his cheek resting on Dotty's head.
"Aw, that's adorable!" Emma cooked quietly, and discretely took a photo of the sleeping couple.
Chris glanced in the mirror and smiled. "He makes her happy, doesn't he?"
"Seems so."

"There they are!" Exclaimed Cillian catching sight of Dotty and Fionn exiting the elevator on the ferry, hand in hand. He waved them over,
Bringing them both into a hug.All of the lads were gathered in a seating area, waiting for the pair to arrive. They would have been their quicker but Fionn needed the toilet and Dotty waited for him.
The pair sat down in between Jack and Harry. Dotty curled up into Fionn's side to create extra room for the others and to keep warm as the ferry wasn't very warm.
"Aw, stop it! You are just too cute!" Harry cried, wiping his eyes. Fionn slapped his arm as Dotty yawned.
"Someone's tired." Smiled Jack looking down at Dotty. The girl nodded, nuzzling her head into the collar of Fionn's jacket. Jack patted her knee smiling at her and yawned himself. "It's too early!"
The group nodded in agreement just as Tom let out a soft snore from where his head laid on Barry's shoulder. "I'm going to take a leap out of his book. Nightie-night." Said Tom (H), who cuddled his jumper in his arms like a pillow.
Dotty had fallen asleep on Fionn who yet again fell asleep with his head rested on hers. The only one who didn't fall to sleep were Harry, Jack and Cillian who sat up playing UNO.
Cillian turned and looked at Fionn and Dotty, "it's brilliant that they are together now."
"It's still awkward, it's like they are awkward for a living." Laughed Jack, quietly placing down a card. "Uno motherfuckers!" He cheered slamming down the card.
Harry groaned as he picked up four cards. "What colour did you choose?"
"Green."
"I don't think they'll ever not be awkward." Cillian chuckled, "it makes it cute though."
"Too cute." Harry giggled, "but in all fairness, they are very cute people. Look at them! Fionn with his cute mole on his jaw like I have, and his adorable weird shaped eyebrows, they both have adorable crooked teeth, and Dotty's cue grey eyes and cute hair and cute button nose. And they're glasses are both cute too!"
"I don't know whether you are being sarcastic or serious."
"I am highly offended. Cillian, I am being serious! UNO!"
"Harry!" Hissed Jack as Barry stirred and so did Dotty and Fionn. "Anyway, I've won. Please continue..."
Jack sat back in his seat in amusement as Cillian made Harry pick up two cards. He also noticed how Fionn pulled Dotty even closer, his arm wrapping around Dotty's front, pulling her by her waist closer.
He mumbled barely coherent words, but Jack still heard them, "I've got you."
