Countdown ~TsukiHina~

~309~

~Hinata~

My eyes flutter open. I try to adjust to the light peeking through the curtains, squinting until my eyes can handle it. How early is it? It can't be that early because Kei's already awake. He's lying there and staring directly at me, it's high key freaking me out. What's he thinking? Do I even want to know what he's thinking? Wait, of course I want to know, I'm curious and proud of it. He's still staring, I lie completely still. Why am I pretending that I'm not awake? This is dumb, he's my boyfriend, why not just talk to him? No, then he'll feel awkward because he'll know I know he was staring at me! Ugh, why is this so difficult? I'm never sleeping in the same bed as someone again, waking up next to them is so awkward.

"I know you're awake Shoyo." I nearly jump out of my skin, how did he know? He chuckles. "You're not fooling me sugar, your eyes are literally open." Oh, so that's how he knew... Why does that surprise me? He's really observant and I didn't think for a moment that he would notice my eyes are open. Can you blame me? It's early, I think, and my brain isn't working properly yet so shut up.

I yawn and roll over slightly so we're looking each other in the eyes. "Looks like you caught me." I laugh sheepishly. "Good morning Kei, how did you sleep?"

He shrugs, wrapping his arms around my waist. It's comforting, I won't lie. "I slept well, better than usual because you were here." Aww that's quite sweet actually, who knew the god of salt himself had a sweet side?

"That's cute." I peck his forehead. "Quick question though, why were you... why were you staring at me before?" There, I asked it. Are you satisfied curiosity? You better be because I totally just freaked him out and I really don't think it was worth it.

He blinks at me a few times, like he's trying to process what I just said. "I'm sorry, is it an issue? Am I not allowed to admire my sleeping boyfriend? Am I supposed to wake you up even when you're clearly tired?" That's the old sarcastic Tsukki that we all know and love. I shake my head violently, I'm sure I'll get used to it with time. "Good." He moves one of his hands up from my waist, tangling it in my hair on the back of my head. "Now, want to watch another movie?"

I snake my arms around his neck. "But Kei, we basically watched everything on Netflix last night, remember?" We had a massive movie night last night, popcorn and everything. I know going to Costa and the park with Tsukki was fun but, honestly, this has been my favourite of our dates so far. Turns out, Kei is a massive disney fan. I never would've guessed it but it's actually quite cute.

"Sho, you clearly underestimate how many movies there are on Netflix." He chuckles and grabs the tv remote, turning it back on and going back onto Netflix. Here we go again. "Now, what kind of movie do you want to watch?"

I shrug as we break the hug and sit up, leaning against the pillows and looking at the tv. "I don't mind, you can choose this time." He let me choose most of the movies last night so I'll let him decide. I'll probably end up zoning out and messing with his hair anyway. His hair is surprisingly fluffy, even though it looks like it's just messy, and I'm pretty sure he doesn't mind me messing with it.

"Suit yourself." He puts on a movie, it's called Next Gen. "I think you'll like this one." I've never seen this film before but I know Yachi has, she's told me to watch it on way too many occasions. Well, I guess I'm finally getting round to it. At least the main character looks cool, I can't judge anything else about the movie yet. He wraps a single arm around my shoulders and I snuggle into his side. "Do you want any food? Or a drink?"

I shake my head. "I'm good, thanks." Can we stay here forever? And just watch films as we cuddle? And do cute little couple things? I'd like to stay like this forever. I pull my sleeves further down so they're basically covering my hands. As much as I want to stay here, I'll have to get up at some point and get ready. But first, we can finish this movie and maybe start another. Scrap that, we're going to end up wasting a whole day like this and I'm down for that.
