Two updates in one day! Wahoo I'm on a roll but I should get back to revising 🥺

That morning I woke up to a surprising site.... Ant was asleep.

Very carefully as not to wake him I lifted my head from his chest only to be pulled closer against him. My eyes flickered over his peaceful face, he looked so different asleep than when he was awake, he looked relaxed and almost innocent. It was sad I didn't get to watch him sleep more often.

The morning air was crisp and fresh, I took a deep breath and looked about camp, feeling the wonders of the open air and trees swaying steadily above our heads, while the sunrise began to frighten away the early mist as it settled over the hundreds of sleeping souls.

My eyes drifted to where Stephen and Robbie were still asleep and then the memories of last night flooded over me suddenly. I looked down my body, not sure what I was looking for but I found myself fully clothed.

Then I started to doubt if that had actually happened, we kissed, I kissed a prince... more than kissed the prince.

That couldn't have been real.

If it wasn't real then I must've dreamt it. I flushed an even brighter shade of red and hid my face in Ants neck quickly, almost groaning in embarrassment. If Ant ever saw that dream I bet he'd laugh, he'd probably think I was a creep.

What was even worse is that I was wishing it did happen, because that dream had felt so real. It felt so nice to be in his arms just resting but now, I wanted more, I wanted to feel what it was like to have his lips on mine again.

I sighed and snuggled back against him, listening to his heart beat as the bass line to the birds gentle song. It was hot out, and I had a feeling we were about to be struck by another summer heat wave so when we finally got back on the move it would be even more uncomfortable than before.

I pushed that thought aside though, in favour of just trying to enjoy our rest day for now.

I wasn't aware he had awoken but I should have guessed it would have been as soon as I hadbecause he's such a light sleeper. Suddenly I felt his hand slide down the curve of my spine and grip my butt in his large hand, I squeaked and buried my head in the crook of his neck.

"Don't do that." I whispered at him, embarrassed by my over-reaction as it brought back memories of what I'd dreamt last night.

"You didn't mind me doing it last night." He whispered deeply, his hand massaging over my round globes just to make me blush deeper. My eyes widened when my mind could properly register what he had said.

I sat up suddenly, causing Ant to quickly move his hand from being crushed. He chuckled and folded his arms behind his head as I turned to looked down at him in disbelief.

"That h-happened?!"

Ant arched a dark eyebrow, "Well I don't think I dreamt it." He smirked and let his eyes flicker down my body, "What I dreamt was a lot dirtier."

I blushed and buried my face in my hands, I felt Anth sit up behind me and wrapped a strong arm around my shoulders. "You don't... uh... regret it do you?"

I shook my head, still trying to hide my blush in my hands. He pulled me into him so my head rested on his shoulder and pulled my hands from my face.

"Then what's wrong baby?" He mumbled, kissing my hair.

"N-nothing... I don't know... I'm fine." I lied, I didn't know what I felt and I didn't know what he could possibly do to make it better. I just felt... weird.
