○ chapter twenty-three ○

The next morning Cassie woke up tangled in to Luke's arms and legs. She smiled and closed her eyes back again. Last night was perfect. After kissing for a while they just cuddled and she finally fell asleep. It felt quite weird to Cassie, not even two months ago she still had a strong dislike for Luke, and now there she was, cuddled up with him.

Cassie closed her eyes for a little longer, trying fall back asleep when only a few seconds later an alarm went off. "Nooo." She groaned and grabbed a pillow to cover her ears up while Luke reached over to turn off the alarm. "What time is it?" She groaned while putting the pillow away again. "8 in the morning." Luke grinned, staring at Cassie. "That's too early and we had way too little hours of sleep". 

They laid there for a few seconds before Luke started talking. "I'm a little confused." He said, furrowing his eyebrows while staring at the ceiling. "Why?" Cassie asked. "I don't know, so much changed in so little time." He started talking.

"I know." Cassie said, sitting up in the bed. "You know what, let's keep it on the low for a second, let's not tell the boys about it and just first see how we go at it." Cassie said, staring in to the distance. "Good idea." Luke smiled and got up as well. "Can I still kiss you?" He asked, Cassie just laughed. "Sure." 

Luke grinned while getting up further and kiss her on the lips, it was a sweet kiss and it was a good start to the morning. "I'm going to go back in to my own room and act as if I slept there tonight." Cassie grinned, getting up. She gave Luke one last kiss and then softly opened the door,  checked if there was anybody around and then quickly walked back in to her own room. 

She laid down on the bed for a short period of time and just though about the last few hours of her life and how they were completely thrown around and remixed. Then there was a knock on the door. "Yeah?" Cassie said, the door opening and revealing Michael. "Morning princess." He grinned and walked in. He sat down on the side of the bed.

"How did you sleep?" He asked. "Pretty good, I went to bed way too late because Luke and I were watching movies and stuffing our faces with food." Cassie laughed and sat up. "Calum and I are going to swim before eating breakfast, I was wondering if you wanted to join us?" He asked. "Yeah sure." She smiled. "I'll go put on my bathing suit." 

Michael smiled, got up and left the room. Cassie luckily did pack a bathing suit, because you never know. She was still slightly annoyed that she forgot her hoodie, but Luke's hoodie was also very comfortable. She walked over to her suitcase and fished out her bathing suit. She quickly stripped down and put it on, then she walked over to her bathroom and fixed her hair and face a little bit.

Cassie opened her door and walked in to the living room to see that it was empty, so she went over to the balcony and saw that Michael and Calum were already in the pool. "You guys didn't even wait for me?" Cassie said, acting offended but then started laughing. "Well jump in then." Calum said, smirking. "Is it cold?" She asked. "No it's nice and warm." Michael said.

She walked over to the little stairs and then got yelled at by both of them. "No you have to jump in to it in one time!" Michael yelled. "Why?" Cassie grinned. "Just do it!" Calum yelled back. "Fine, but if it's cold, I'll yell at both of you." She laughed and took a little run, just so she could jump in.

When she did, she immediately yelled. "You guys it's freaking cold!" She screamed out and then swam over to Calum. "You liar!" She laughed and tried to pull him under water. Luke came walking on to the balcony. "What's going on?" He asked and saw Calum and Cassie fooling around. Cassie saw Luke and stopped. "They told me the water was warm, so I jumped in and it was freezing. So I'm trying to push Calum under water." She laughed. "Ah alright." Luke laughed and walked back in. "Anyways." Michael said. 

"Don't get me started, Clifford." Cassie said, standing still in the middle of the pool, thinking about which boy to tackle first. "Wait what time do you have to be at the venue?" Cassie asked, gasping because she did not want to be the reason the boys were late. "Like one in the afternoon or something." Michael answered. "Oh, that's fine." She grinned and jumped back on top of Calum.

In the mean time Luke was making himself breakfast in the tiny kitchen. "Good morning my friend." Ashton said, walking in. "Sup." Luke said, sitting down on the bar stool while eating his food. "This hotel is my favourite so far, the bed and the shower were so comfortable." Ashton said. Luke nodded, still a little bit away in thoughts.

"You alright?" Ashton asked. Luke looked up and nodded. "Yeah, I'm great, just thinking about some stuff." He said while giving a small smile. "Anything you want to talk about?" Ashton asked while taking a sip of his coffee. "No, not really." Luke answered. Like a calling, this was the moment Cassie walked in.

She had a towel wrapped around and her hair was still slightly wet. "Good morning Ashton." Cassie smiled. "Hey." He said back. "You already had a nice swim I see." He smiled. "Well I would've felt bad if I hadn't at least gone in to the pool, but it was really cold." Cassie laughed and poured herself a cup of coffee. 

They talked for a little longer until Ashton decided to go eat the rest of his breakfast outside on the balcony. "You look pretty in your little bathing suit." Luke smiled, he slightly bit his lip. Cassie smirked and stood a little closer to him. His hand slipped under the towel and placed itself on her lower back. "Thank you." She smiled and gave him a quick kiss. 

Then the noises became louder so they quickly broke apart.
