youth

thirty nine ; real life

mabel wakes up to the sun streaming in through the blinds in dans room. two muscular and toned arms are slung around her waist and flashbacks of last night occur in her vision. "oh my god" she whispers lowly to herself. dan stirs next to her, his arms moving from her naked body. mabel pulls the grey sheets up to her chest, covering her breasts. "good morning bear" dan kisses her neck, a smile on his face.

"morning" she replies, dangling her legs over the edge of his bed. pressing her feet to the cold wooden flooring, her knees buckle and she falls to the floor. dan jumps up in a state of panic and rushes to her side, picking her up bridal style. "hey, hey are you okay love?" mabel hums in response.

mabel moves her head from dans chest as they lie in his bed, still not wearing any clothes. "hey um, I need to take a shower." dan smiles, grabbing a pair of boxers and a blanket. "wrap this around yourself"

dan sits mabel on the toilet seat, turning on the shower. a thank you falls from her lips and dan can tell that's not everything she wanted to say. "um, could you help me? in the shower I mean."

a soft chuckle escapes dans lips as he nods his head. "of course I can" dan helps mabel stand up and holds her hips as they step into the warm shower. she faces his muscular chest, wrapping her arms around him. "i love you too" dan looks down in surprise, but smiles back. he wraps his arms around her. mabel and dan stand under the shower head for what seems like a while. "okay i want to clean myself, im not here for sex daniel" dan let's out a sarcastic moan of annoyance but grabs the bottle of shampoo, putting some in his hands and spreading it in mabel's hair. "dan, what are we?"

"i dont know, I feel like we are more than friends after last night"

"youre telling me" she laughs

"mabel, will you be my girlfriend"

"of course I will daniel"
