What is the harm of excitement?

Once they had finished their food and had been sitting in their nest watching movies for a while, Nathalie had began to feel a little bit tired.

Her eyelids started to to feel heavy and she tried as hard as she could to keep them open, but it was no use.

After a few minutes had passed she had completely fallen asleep with her head rested on Alexandres shoulder.

Alexandre had noticed this and he didn't really feel like moving too much, Incase he woke her up.

So he switched the television off, lay down properly on the sofa and lifted Nathalie up a bit to lie with him. He rested Nathalies head on his chest whilst he wrapped his arms around her waist.

He took off both of their glasses and rested them on the coffee table, before lying back down comfortably.

Before he dozed off, he looked at Nathalies face, admiring her beauty and gave her a chaste kiss on the forehead as he fell asleep with a smile across his face.

In the morning once Nathalie had woken up, she had opened  her eyes to find that she was lying on something that didn't even feel, remotely like her bed or her couch.

After a while, she realized what it was, she realized that she had slept on Alexandres chest, whilst he held onto her in a tight embrace all throughout the night.

As Nathalie looked up into his face she saw that he was still fast asleep, she didn't want to disturb him, so she just lay her head back down and drifted off, back to sleep.

Once Alexandre had woken up, he looked down to see Nathalie fast asleep breathing deeply, she looked so lovely, even with her bed head,he ran his fingers through Nathalies blue-black locks and In doing so, he made her shift around into a more comfortable position.

He loved this woman, he loved her with all his heart, today was going to be the day that he told her his true feelings, today was the day that he would hopefully start a wonderful relationship with an amazing woman.

"Nat, Nathalie... wake up" he whispered, no response " Nathalie sancoeur, mr agreste is calling you!"

"I'm up!" She said as she frantically ran to her phone to see that no one had called her.

She looked over to Alexandre who was trying to  hide  a mischievous smirk.

She gave him a death glare before jumping onto the couch and tackling him to the floor.

"You gave me such a fright! it's a Sunday, why would he call me, he'd only call if there was an emergency!" She said as she pinned him down by his arms.

"Aww, I'm sorry Nat, but I couldn't let you sleep for too long, we have an entire day ahead of us" he said just as he flipped her over and pinned her down.

Once their childish banter and laughing had quieted down, everything just went silent.

It felt like everything had just stopped, they were both as silent as can be, all you could hear was their heavy hot breathing.

Before any of them could get a word in edgewise, Nathalie suddenly had a burst of courage.

Before Alexandre could react, Nathalie had managed to untangle herself from his grasp and in one swift movement, she reached up and grabbed his face and pulled him down into a sweet kiss.

It was long, but not long enough, they both secretly wanted more.

"I-I'm sorry, I should have asked or announced myself"

"Wow"

"Wha-"

Alexandre had pulled Nathalie back in for another kiss, this time was with a  lot more passion and was filled with certainty.
