I kicked off my heels and went to the bathroom to remove my makeup. Quickly changing into some pajama shorts and a t-shirt i had left on the side earlier. I flicked off the bathroom light and padded back into the main room. Harrison was there, sat on the bed looking slightly dazed. He spotted me and laughed. 
"You look like you again! Not that you didn't look beautiful before. You always look beautiful." He rambled on. His blue shirt un-tucked from his pants now. His hair all over the place. 

"Come on, we'll get you into something else. Ive got some sweatpants that belong to Jamei" I threw him them out of my suitcase and he pulled his shirt over his head. 
"I'll sleep on the couch" He announced. Unbuckling his belt i turned around smiling slightly as i heard him grunt as he pulled his pants off and the sweatpants on. 
"No, you can sleep in the bed. It's big enough for two" I say, turning around to see him sat there shirtless. 

The small lamp on the side of the bed illuminating the room with a soft glow. The moonlight beaming in through the window shining on his face as he drunkenly smiles, and hiccups. 
"Yay, a sleepover" I laughed and walked around to my side of the bed. Harrison shuffling about and climbing under the covers as well. I turn the small lamp off and the room is plunged into a short darkness. 

I lay there, with my back to him. He was laying on his back breathing deeply. Every hiccup made me giggle. He spoke up, "Stop laughing at my hiccups." He nudged me with his elbow. 
"I'm not. I Swear" I said through giggles. After a few moments it fell silent. No more hiccups. He turned over and now had his chest and stomach flush against my back. I stiffened slightly at the motion. After all, I've only known this man for two days. This was quite an intimate position. 

The room was silent. Small snores fell from his lips. My heart beating fast in my chest. His arm moved from his side, swung over my waist and pulled me in towards him. My t-shirt riding up slightly as I was moved. I realised quite quickly he was asleep now and not doing this consciously. His thumb traced circles on my stomach, and oddly, it was comforting. For the first time in years i felt safe.

As i was drifting off to sleep he moved again, his leg this time, bending slightly and coming to rest between my legs.  We were completely entwined now, my hand resting on his that was wrapped around me. And my body settling into his. Drunkenly we well asleep, waiting for the morning to come. 

......................................

The birds were chirping. The sun was shining through the open curtains. I opened my eyes briefly, only to close them again at the pain in my head. Hungover. Fantastic. 

I went to move, only to realise i was trapped. Between Harrison's arm and his chest. Everything immediately came rushing back to me. The drinking. The cuddling. Oh. The warmth radiating from Harrison's chest was oddly comforting. His grip strong, but by no means painful. Our legs completely entwined, out bodies even closer than they were last night. For only knowing this man for two days, i wasn't uncomfortable by these actions. 

I just lay there, basking in the warmth. I must of been laying there for a good half hour before Harrison started to stir. His head moved closer to me, nestling into the crook of my neck. His breath fanning over my shoulder and neck, sending shivers down my spine and throughout my body. His lips brushing over the skin on my shoulder as he stirred. 

I heard him groan, and his hand fist my t-shirt. I took this moment to turn in his arms and face him. His eyes fluttered open and he took a moment to realise where he was, and who he was with. I smiled up at him, a sheepish smile, given our close proximity. I could still feel the heat of him on my body. 

"Good morning" I say, quietly. He smiles, only to realise the current position of our bodies.
"Morning... " I move away from him and sit up on the side of the bead with my back to him, stretching out my arms. "It's far too bright" He says laughing. I smile and turn around to face him, crossing my legs on the bed. 
"I feel rough" I say pushing my hair back into the bus it fell out of last night. He sits up, the sheet falling down to uncover his toned chest. 
"Yeah, me too. What time is it?" He asks looking around for his phone. Reaching for mine i say,
"It's 9:30" I throw my phone onto the bed, rubbing my face with the palms of my hands. 
"Do you want to go and get breakfast? There's a lovely little cafe down near Bronte. If you want to that is..." He trailed off running the back of his neck. 
"That would be lovely" I smiled "I need to get dressed though. Do you want to borrow a shirt from Jamei?" I offered, he nodded.
"Please, we can swing past mine and i can change. We pass my place on the way." He was fiddling with his phone. Probably texting the boys. 

"Hey, do you want to go surfing later on? A few of my friends are going after lunch if you fancy it? There's a pretty good swell down the South End" I took a deep breath. 
"I dont know, i've never been surfing before." I glanced out to the sea. He shrugged. 
"I'd never been on a swinging hoop before, but i gave it a go, didnt i?" He winked at me and i gave in.

After changing into my own clothes, with a bikini underneath, and getting some clean ones for Harrison from Jamei's room. Who, by the way is still sick as a dog from all that drink. Luckily it's our day off today too. Meaning, i had the entire day to chill while he recovers.

I was walking along the street with Harrison, it didn't take long for us to reach this amazing apartment complex. He opens the door and we make our way to an apartment on the second floor. He opens the door and steps aside to let me in first. 

It's your standard bachelor pad, id suppose. Tidy, with surfing memorabilia on the walls, a surf board in the far corner. Open plan with a lovely kitchen overlooking the sea. He spoke up while he was walking towards, what i assume is the bedroom. 

"Make yourself comfortable, there's some water in the fridge." He pointed to the kitchen. I stood in front of the sink, staring out at the view. It was amazing. I could 100% live here. It's just a matter of moving really. I was too busy thinking about my love for Australia i didnt hear Harrison walk back into the room.

*3rd Person P.O.V* 
The tall New Zealander stood and stared at the beautiful woman in front of him. Here she was, stood in his kitchen, staring at the view and stuck in thoughts so deep she didnt hear him enter the room. 

For all of the three days he'd known her, he'd caught feelings for her quite quickly. Which is strange. She was an acrobat. She travelled around the world and appeared in music videos. She was a good laugh while she was out, and she instantly brightened up a room, and his day. He knew next to nothing about her, and she knew nothing about him. Yet they both gravitated towards each other like magnets. 

Similarly, Levi's feelings towards the tall tanned lifeguard were growing. After all, life has a funny way of bringing people together, doesn't it? 

It was simply a case of whether they'd allow their circumstances to come in between them. But for right now, both of them were going to make the most of their time together.
