NOT EDITED (you know the drill)
i was highly sleep deprived and feeling very emotional when i wrote this. i hope it makes sense and does them justice. MOST OF ALL i hope that you enjoy it because i do it for the readers- always. love you all<3

I wake peacefully, my bare body held by Grayson's, the soft sheets engulfing both of us. The air is sweet and the sunlight is warm, but after a sigh my heart begins to race.

"Shit!" I mumble, sitting up, the cool air hits my chest and I pull the sheet up over myself. I grab my head and look to the clock, 10:06. We must be completely ready by 1:30, do-able but now stressful.

I sink back down to my pillow and smile up at the ceiling, then look to Grayson's pleased face. Sleeping, the ghost of a smile remains on his lips. His arm draped over my waist, completely relaxed.

I drag my fingers up his arm, gently cupping his cheek when my hand reaches his face. I lean closer to him and push his hair aside so that I can kiss his forehead. "Baby," I whisper, running my fingers through his hair. "Grayson," I smile until my cheeks hurt. "Time to get up." I tell him.

"No, we can just stay here, maybe do our best re-enactment of last night," He wiggles his eyebrows and laughs, I do the same, pushing him playfully.

"Tempting, but this is important. I'm not even supposed to be here, all of my clothes are in my room." I shake my head and put my palm over my forehead.

"Go get your stuff and come back, by then I'll be up," He nods his head that still lays on his pillow, his eyes still shut.

"Dani will be mad, I'm supposed to be his wife remember?" I scan his face, but he doesn't react, only remains smiling.

"Well you're not actually married," He shrugs. "So it's okay." He nods, making me laugh.

"I'll be right back then," I reach for the t-shirt on the floor and slip it over my head before shimmying into my underwear from under the covers. I stand with a groan and stretch before grabbing my keycard and heading for the door.

"Be sneaky my little ninja," He mumbles from the bed.

"Get up my lazy little ninja," I hear him laugh and shut the door behind me. I dash across the hallway and swipe my card quickly and push into the room. Dani sits on the bed eating a bowl of cereal, his legs crossed in front of him. When I enter, he looks at me with wide eyes, clearly startled.

"Wow," He raises his eyebrows. "Thought for sure you were dead." He jokes, I shake my head and chuckle.

"Yeah sorry," I nod, the conversation becoming uncomfortable. "Got a little caught up." I press my lips together tightly and go to grab my things.

"Well, grab your things and go, be safe. Hopefully I don't see you again until after everything is finished." He smiles at me before drinking the excess milk from his bowl. I rush into the bathroom and grab my make up and hair things, lastly laying my bagged dress over my forearm.

"Bye Dani," I say, waving behind me as I dash back out the door, Dani's light laugh being my farewell. I tip toe across the hallway and knock on Grayson's door. The door opens and I push past him, rushing to set my things down before something slips. I drop everything on the bed and look down at mess, a headache already forming.

"Damn girl," He says, coming up beside, mirroring me by propping his fists up on his hips. Looking down at me, he smiles.

I look up from the bags to his soft expression. "I know," I nod, narrowing my eyes.

Getting ready isn't a burden for me, I enjoy dolling myself up, but it's so tedious that even the smallest things become irritating. I am ready soon despite my annoyance with mascara and eyeliner. For the time we have remaining, I watch as Grayson fiddles with his tie. Pulling it back and forth and yanking at it angrily, his forehead tenses and his jaw clenches.
