Moonlight (c.m.)

ch. 10

You feel movement behind you and you freeze for a moment, before you remember you stayed with Chris last night. You smile and turn to face him, he is still asleep. You admire his face and mindlessly trace your finger over the tattoos on his neck and shoulder. He stirs, opening his eyes.

"Your hands are so soft." He mumbles before wrapping his arm around you and pulling you into his chest. His other arm is stretched out under your pillow.

"I like looking at your tattoos, they're beautiful." You smile up at him. He hums and kisses your forehead. He then reaches up and moves a strand of your hair out of your eyes before resting his hand on your lower back.

"What time is it?" He asks, not bothering to move. You shrug, not knowing where your phone was. "I wish we could stay like this forever." He pouts.

"Me too, but we have to get up and get ready for the show tonight, sleepy." You chuckle and turn your body away from him, planning to slide out of his bunk.

"Noooo." He whines before grabbing your hip and pulling you back, a little more forceful than he had intended. You gasp, feeling your body come in contact with his again. The forceful touch... slightly excited you. "Shit sorry, I didn't mean to pull you back so hard I just didn't want you to leave yet." He laughs nervously. He didn't want to make you uncomfortable.

"It's okay, just caught me off guard." You smile before he lets you go so you could crawl out of his bunk. Kylie had just gotten out of hers and sees you. She smirks and winks at you. You send her a glare as if saying 'we didn't do anything'. She shrugs and turns to walk into the common room. "I'm gonna go shower." You say to him before walking to the bathroom.

"Did you sleep well last night?" Ricky asks, seeing a seemingly well rested Chris enter the room. He sheepishly smiles and nods.

"Yeah I was finally able to sleep like a normal person." He chuckles and sits on the couch, leaving out the detail that you were with him.

"Seems like it. Good, maybe you'll keep up the energy for tonight's show." Ricky responds, playing on his phone. Chris nods and opens his notebook and begins writing.

After a few minutes you emerge from the bunk area with a Nine Inch Nails shirt and jeans and a towel wrapped around your hair.

"Hey (y/n), would you want to do my makeup again tonight? I kinda want to do 'The Crow' look." Chris asks, glancing up at you.

"Sure, do you want to do it now or wait until later before the show?" You reply, feeling Kylie's stare. You look at her and she smirks, mouthing 'don't fuck it up'. You roll your eyes.

"Tonight, I feel like it would get smudged and messy before then." He laughs and closes his notebook.

"Fair enough." You sit next to Ricky and decide to post another picture you took with the guys on Instagram. After a bit of time you take the towel out of your hair and decide to let it air dry.

"Do you guys wanna go eat before the show tonight? We have a couple of hours." Ryan asks, not looking away from his phone. Mumbles of 'yeah' and 'sure' erupt.

Everyone had went to an Asian food place, and you were sitting around a table, finishing your meals.

"Dude, that shit was GOOD." Vinny burps and laughs. The other guys laugh and agree.

Kylie sees how close you and Chris are, and speaks up.

"How long do you think it would take to do Chris's makeup tonight, (y/n)? I know shit like that can take a while." She half smirks at you. You shrug, but you catch on to her plan. It wouldn't take that long, but you know she's trying to give you more time alone with Chris.
