She says
"Babe you look so
// cool // "
Reece POV
"Babe", a voice whispered in my ear, small and quiet but strong willed.
"Hmm", I hummed in response, still half asleep.
"Lets go somewhere", she mused into the dark of the room, curtains drawn shut.
I glanced at her, although it was too dark to see her face clearly, I could see her hair fanned out across the pillow, the darkness shadowed her face and enveloped her into a false sense of security.
"What?", i murmured, barely awake, but I knew she had been lying there, wide awake, for hours. Y/n often had trouble sleeping, but she never said anything if she had a rough night, insisting I needed my sleep more than her. Most nights I ended up wrapped around her, hoping she might feel safe and relaxed enough to sleep.
"Lets go somewhere", she repeated, her voice a little louder now. It seemed to bounce from the familiar walls.
"Where?", I muttered, way too tired to even keep up with her.
"I don't know. London. Dublin. Barcelona. Anywhere. Let's go on a roadtrip", she suggested excitedly.
"Hmm", i murmured, turning over. I buried my head into her shoulder. She was warm and smelled of coconuts.
"I'm kinda happy right where I am", I smiled into her skin.
"Please?", she begged. I knew if I could see her face, her eyes would be wide.
"What time is it?", I asked groggily.
"Almost four am", she replied.
I groaned, "can't we sleep and go exploring tomorrow?"
She deflated, but if I knew y:n at all she'd bargain. She'd give me half a deal, because my views were important to her but she was also independent and would never settle for anyone else's opinion.
"Fine, but only till seven", she sighed. That's my girl, I thought and fell asleep again almost instantly.
Your POV
I laid back down. Reece's head was buried into my shoulder, breathing deeply, his exhales brushed my bare skin. I knew I wouldn't be able to sleep. It was one of those nights and I had accepted it at one am.
I turned onto my side, trying not to wake Reece.
I buried my back against his torso and smiled as he unconsciously wrapped his arm around me, his head coming to rest against the crook of my neck. I took his fingers and gently intertwined mine, his other arm wrapped tightly around my hip.

The clock read 7:15 and there was no way I was letting Reece sleep any longer.
His arms were still tightly around me, protectively.
"Reece", I shook his arm gently. His eyes fluttered open slightly. He smiled at me, intoxicatingly. His eyes were sleepy but he smiled all the same.
"Good morning", he mumbled, tightening his grip around me.
"Morning", I chirped back.
He brought me down to his lips and slowly aligned his with mine. His face was inches from mine, so close his hair tickled my forehead. He connected our lips and I savoured the taste of him.
"Remember your promise"
"What promise?", he whispered as I pulled back from him.
"I gave you three more hours of sleep and you let me go on an adventure", I reminded him, my eyes flitting between his eyes and his lips.
"I think we both know what you really want", he teased, watching my eyes, watching his lips.
I kissed him again, deeper and more passionate.
"You", I mumbled,
"I always, only ever want you", I told him honestly.
"You sure?", he laughed quietly.
"100 per cent", i assured him before leaning down and kissing him again.
"Sometimes I wonder what your intentions with me are", he laughed.
"Oh my intentions are horrible. I want to drag you from this nice warm cosy bed and make you hike up a mountain or drive for hours or catch the next flight leaving the country. I want to do it all with you Reece", I spoke.
"Well then we better get going, that's a long bucket list", he whispered, staring into my eyes. He tucked a loose strand of hair behind my ear.
Reece POV
We had eventually decided to go to the airport. Take no luggage, just money, passports and phones, and catch the next available flight away from here. An adventure y/n kept calling it, a chance to escape, I called it.
A break for a bit. Just me and her.
We were sitting in a taxi, driving to the airport. Y/n was wearing my UCLA hoodie and some black leggings, her hair in a messy bun, but strands had already escaped, baby hairs framing her beautiful face. She glanced at me and blushed when she saw how intently I had been staring at her. She looked back out the window at the rain and sighed happily.
"Penny for your thoughts?", I questioned.
"I'm so happy", she said, looking at me and smiling widely. I laughed
"I said penny for your thoughts, not penny for you to tell me a single word on your feelings"
"I'm so in love with you Reece, and getting out of here fills me with hope and light and I know wherever we end up will be amazing because we'll be together and we don't need material things to be happy because we have each other", she gushed and I felt my heart melt a bit, while looking into her eyes.
She smiled brightly again, "penny for yours?", she asked, although there was no way I could deny her request after what she had just told me.
"I'm so in love with you y/n, goddammit", I muttered, still shocked by the sudden affections that rushed over me. She laughed teasingly "I said penny for your thoughts, not penny for your feelings", she repeated what I had said to her.
I looked at her, right in the eyes
"Babe.. you look so cool"
She blushed, nodded and I cradled her to my side.
"You always do", I told her.
