ian lends me shorts and a shirt.
i gladly take them to the bathroom to change, james lightly bumping my shoulder as i pass.
i give him a strange look and pass by.
-
after i change, ian's shirt was long enough for me to wear so i didn't end up putting on the shorts.
i throw the shorts back onto ian's chest, hitting his face and the hands that held his phone.
i look at the couch and see that james has gladly given me a blanket and pillow.
i wrap myself in the blanket before laying down to go on my phone.
because of the L shaped couch, ian's and i's heads almost touched. ian got the longer side while i got the shorter.
i grab my phone from where i set it on the couch, the bright light blinding me.
i scroll through instagram and snapchat, getting bored of both.
i text ian; "i'm bored and cold."
he turns his head to look at me, i pout.
he quickly goes back to his phone.
"what do you want? cuddles or something?" he replies.
i send him a smiley face back. i hear him sigh, then scoot over on the couch.
i get up, the blanket and shirt draped on me.
i get in the empty space ian left for me, his heat already radiating.
we are not even a couple, what was happening. it just felt natural.
"ian?" i ask, i get a low hum in return.
"thank you." i close my eyes waiting for sleep.
-
i wake up, pressed against a body still.
i fell them move slightly, their arm coming around me closely.
i slowly open my eyes to see ian still asleep.
i must have turned, my body now facing his.
i place my head on his chest, my eyes falling closed like they expected it.
just as it felt like i was going to fall asleep again, i hear clanking.
the clanking then turns into bangs, my ear drums almost popping.
"james!" i hear ian groan, his morning voice made his regular voice even deeper.
i press closer into ian if that was possible.
"get up love birds, if we want to save amira's car, we gotta go!" james claps his hands near us.
i groan, "no... just call a tow company." it was all muffled.
"please james?" i didn't even need to look at ian to see his pleading face.
"fine, i'll do it, since there isn't any god damn adults around here." james walks away, leaving ian and i alone again.
ian's body relaxes and so does mine, it was like i was at home.
my eyes slowly get darker, and i fall back asleep.
