First it was him

Part eight

How cute. He was nervous.

"Of course." I said kissing him firmly on the lips.

When I pulled away we both smiled.
We laid in silence.

"Good night beautiful." Riley said slightly tightening his grip around me. his body heat made me warm and comfortable. This was the safest I've ever felt. Nothing could hurt me.

"Good night." I said closing my eyes.

Shortly after I fell into one of the best sleeps I've ever had.

THE NEXT MORNING

I slowly opened my eyes as the sun light in the tent hurt my eyes slightly. Last night felt like a dream.

Being held so closely by Riley I could only move my head.

I looked up at his face. He was sleeping so soundly. He looked so perfect.

I went back to my original position and listened to the birds chirp all around us. I didn't hear anything outside so I figured Abby or josh wasn't awake yet.

"Good morning beautiful." I heard Riley say softly. His voice rough a cracked because it was early morning.

"Good morning." I said looking up at his gorgeous green eyes.

"What time is it?" He said reaching his arm over me to grab his phone. He ended rolling on top of me.

"Riley your squashing me!" I squealed well laughing.

"Sorry not sorry." he said laying on top of me laughing.

"Your heavy." I said pushing him off.

"I know." Riley said re-wrapping his arms around me.

"You are quite the snuggler hey?" I said giggling.

"Yep." He said whispering, nestling his chin on my head.

"What time is it?" I whispered back.

"8:45." He whispered.

"Okay." I whispered running my pointer finger up and down his arm which was stretched across my torso.

"Why are you whispering?" He asked whispering.

"I don't know you started it." I said quietly.

We both let out a laugh.

"Ugh I could seriously lay here with you in my arms for ever and ever." Riley said closing his eyes.

"Wish I could say the same but to be honest I'm getting hungry." I said sighing.

"Well hate to break it to you but I'm never letting you go." Riley said slightly tightening his grip once again.

"Never ever?" I asked.

"Never, ever, ever, ever." He said grinning.

"Do you promise?" I said looking into his eyes.

"I promise." He said kissing my forehead.

Soon after we both emerged from the tent and ate some bagels.

"So, it's supposed to be cooking hot today." Riley said cleaning up the breakfast stuff.

"That right perfect day for hitting the beach all day." I heard Abby say behind me.

I turned around to see her getting out of her tent.

"Good morning." I said smiling.

"Morning." She said fixing herself something to drink.

"Josh still sleeping?" Riley asked sitting down beside me.
