"Isla." I stroked her soft hair to try and ease her out of her sleep. She did an adorable mumble before pulling the sheets closer to her face.

"Baby, wake up. I want to take you out for breakfast." I chuckled as she rolled over to snuggle into my chest. I felt the warmth of her body against my own and felt so complete.

"Shhhh... It's bedtime still." She said in her tired baby voice. How can I be so madly in love with her still?

"I'll buy you hash browns and grilled tomatoes." My thumb rubbed against her cheek. I remember when she stayed with me, we'd go to H.E.B at 11pm and buy loads of breakfast food and she'd always wanted tomatoes and hash browns. We'd cook it all up as soon as we got home and watch the office until the early hours of the morning. Finally, we'd go outside to see the sunrise before going to bed and waking up at noon.

"Fuck... that sounds good." She half groaned from exhaustion and half moaned from hunger. She's so cute when she's sleepy.

"I'll let you wear my hoodie." I further bribed her. The amount of hoodies and t-shirts I've lost to her is unreal. But I'm pretty sure I've got a few of hers still as well.

"Hmmm.." She thought about it. "Can I keep it?"

"Of course." I laughed when she immediately opened her eyes and jumped out of bed.

"Come on lazy arse! Get out of bed, we're getting breakfast!" I scoffed at her nerve.

"You dick!" I quickly got out of bed and grabbed her, before beginning to tickle her senseless. I couldn't be mad with her though when she was stood in just her underwear, with major bed head and an adorable screeching laugh.

"Awsten!" She squealed. "Please, it hurts."

"Say you're sorry for calling me a lazy ass!" I continued to tickle her bare waist.

"Okay! Okay! I'm sorry." She thrashed about trying to get away from me. I stopped tickling her, instead gripping her waist and pulling her in for a kiss.

"Is it cool for me to grab a quick shower?" She asked when I pulled away.

"Go for it. My wash bag is in the bathroom if you need anything. You can even use my toothbrush if you want." I wouldn't let many people use my toothbrush but Isla and I have already shared a lot of germs so it's not much different.

"And they say romance isn't dead." She rolled her eyes at me before going into the bathroom.

I decided I'd get a shower when I came back after breakfast. I put on my black skinny jeans and a green supreme sweatshirt.

I also folded Isla's clothes and put them on the bed, I had just lazily made, and put my tour hoodie next to them. I'll just get another one from our merch supply later.

I went to brush my teeth in the bathroom, whilst she was in the shower, just to wind her up.

"Awsten! I swear to God! You better have a good reason for messing with my water temperature." I laughed as she groaned at me being annoying.
