CHAPTER 9 (good morning)

just another filler chapter!

mornings in the road trip flat. (more like almost afternoon, but who doesn't enjoy a good lie in)

----------------------------------

Andy's POV

I open my eyes, the sun is shining through the edge of the blind, I watch the dust dance in the light. as I move my head I realise that I'm laying on an arm, not a pillow. 

and in one flash I remember everything about last night. 

rye is in my bed. it's been so long since I've woken up in his arms. I savour the moment. 

he is on his back and I'm snuggled into his side with my arm around his waist and my head on his bicep.  I feel his chest slowly rise and fall as he sleeps, his warmth radiates from his body. his lips are parted slightly and the light from the window leaves a line of light vertically across his face, causing his features to have a warm glow. 

I smile to myself. he is stunning. 

I turn and check my phone. it's 11:04 am. we have studio today at 1 it would have been better to be up earlier but at least we didn't sleep in too late. 

I sit up slowly, not waking rye. 

I notice Mikey is already up; he's drinking coffee and is watching videos on his laptop. he's obviously showered as his wet hair falls over this eyes. he's dressed in a white T-shirt and ripped black jeans. 

he looks at me as I sit up, and mouths 'morning' being quiet as rye is still asleep.

i smile back at him. he looks at rye, then back at me and raises his eyebrows, I shake my head and smile, he then turns back to his screen with a playful unimpressed look on his face. 

I get up from my bed being careful not to cause too much movement and go shower.

Cody's POV

I role over expecting a body to be next to me but I'm by myself in rye's bed. whenever I'd stay at the flat I'll bed share with one of the boys. but obviously, me being with rye and all, I've recently been sleeping with him whenever I'm over. 

  check my phone, it's about 11:10  

I remember that andy and I left rye on the sofa last night. i decide you go check up on him.

I swing my feet over the bed to get up and see Harvey is in his bed fast asleep. he must have got back late from the studio last night. 

I walk into the Mindy room and rye isn't on the sofa. he must already be up.

"morning mike, sleep well?" 

"very good actually De" he smiles at me 

"you seen rye?"

he gestures to andy's bed.  as I hear a groan coming from the covers. 

"oh" I say and give a half-hearted smile.

"what's the time?" ryes asked rolling over and stretching as he woke.

mikey answers

"bout quarter past 11, we've got studio at 1 so you've got time to get ready"

rye looked at me 

"oh morning De, sleep well?"

I'm still looking at him. he slept with andy. I'm aware they've slept in the same bed loads of time's before, they are best friends. but, for some reason that  I don't know, this is getting to me a little bit. like we're supposed to be together, he's not with andy he is with me. I don't think I would normally think twice about it but I'm feeling a little on edge because of the way rye's been acting recently. it's probably nothing. 

"yo De" Mikey says, bringing me back to the present 

"oh yeah good thanks, still waking up," I say and yawn in response to ryes question realising I didn't answer

"anyway, imma go get ready, taught I'd do a food shop when you guys are at the studio because you'll have nothing in this house other than popcorn at the moment and I have to grab a few things anyway" I shake off the weird feeling rye was giving me and focus on the tasks of today.

"ooo actually yes that would be incredibly helpful, you want me to get a list together?" Mikey asks

"go for it," I say

"come join us at the studio after though yeh?" Mikey says with a kinda pleading tone

"yh of course" I smile and leave to go get changed

------------------------------------------

Jack's POV

I wake up to andy shoving my shoulder. 

"yo jack, brook, get up, we got studio at 1 and it's nearly 12"

"mmhmm yh alright, I'm up I say" with no real motivation to get up  

I snuggle back into Brook

wait

I snuggle back into Brook?

I remember now, I got into bed with brook last night after the movie. we both enjoy a friendly cuddle sometimes. or a lot...  

"Okay, but like actually get up because we don't wanna be late again because you weren't ready" andy leaves shutting the door behind him.

my body is pressed up against brooks back. he is the little spoon and our legs are intertwined. his head's rested on my left arm and my face is cuddled in the crook of his neck from behind. 

"brooky, we gotta get up" I groan into his ear

"mmm do we have to" he moans in a husky morning voice. 

he spins around so he is now facing me, our faces centimetres apart.

"you know I'd happily sleep all day" I claimed, jokingly rubbing our noses 

"aha yh true, yaknow I'd happily stay here with you" 

there was a moment where it felt like time had stopped and we were both lost in each other's eyes and then I burst out laughing.

I can never keep a straight face round brook. then we have an actual giggle fit. brook shoves me and I shove him back. we keep messing about until I fall off the bed.

"ahhh" I complain "that hurt"

"shouldn't be goin and tickling me then should ya" brook teases 

"yh whatever, you started it" I reply playfully

we both get ready and join the others in the kitchen. 

----------------------------------
