Don't forget/3

1990, January 14th
5:12AM

Michaels POV

I wake up, feeling a light pressure on my chest, I open my eyes and smile at the sight of belle asleep before me.

I don't want to wake her, but I really need to pee...

I can wait.

I look over at the clock.

5:12?

In the morning? No it can't be, I came here around six in the morning didn't I?

Wow, I've been asleep for long.. that's the longest I've slept in a long time.

Belle takes a deep breath and she shifts on my chest, I look from the clock to her, her eyes open wide.

"Mm, hey" she mumbles, dragging out a breath.

"Hi" I giggle.

"How long have we been asleep?"

"Um, it's five, in the afternoon"

Her eyes reopen, wider than before, she chuckles a little and tightens her arms around my neck

"I can always sleep so long around you. I don't know what it is.. you just- make me calm"

I blush, because she does the exact same to me.. "belle.. I have insomnia, as you know, I just slept eleven hours. That's crazy, I mean- thank you"

"Uh no problem?" She laughs. "No really, I'm happy to hear that. Oh no"

"What? Are you okay?"

She sniggers and looks up at me "now you've had a lot of sleep, your going to be ten times as hyper than you usually are"

I laugh and nod "you're so right"

I start to tickle her sides, smiling cheekily as she kicks and squirms around.

"Nohoho! Michael! Staahhhp! Ah!"

I let go of her sides and stand up from the sofa, stretching out my arms wide as she catches her breath.

"You're crazy" she says breathlessly

I giggle and walk down the hall to the bathroom.

After doing my business I wash my hands, humming the tune to 'The way you make me feel'
However it must've been loud, because belle starts singing it by the door.

"You knock me off of my feet now baby! My lonely days are gone!" She shouts playfully, banging the beat on the door.

It suddenly stops and I hear her footsteps fade away, just like nothing had even happened.

I shake my head, laughing, drying my hands and walking outside...

To my surprise she hadn't gone, she was still in the hall, her back against the wall.

She opens her mouth to start singing again but I cup her mouth just in time and we break out into laughter.

I follow her into the kitchen, then sitting down at a stool at the breakfast bar opposite her.

"What are we going to do.. I feel really- energised.. I need to wear myself out" I rush, jogging my arms and bobbing them hyperactively.

She giggles "how come your so awake but I still feel tired.."

"Your problem. I'm just gonna run around the house because I feel like doing so" I smile at her and start jogging back down the hall, making my way into the lounge and circling around the sofa, my arms stretched out like I were flying.
