He couldn't help himself. He had to stare at her. Cami was trying to talk to him from across the booth in the Pop's set, but he wasn't listening. It's not like he was trying to be mean he just didn't want to. Because staring at Lili, goofing around while recording the sad intent on Cherry Pie and ice cream in front of them on the table for her Instagramstories, was so much more interesting. It was very possible that he looked like a total idiot right now, but he couldn't care any less.
It was the weirdest thing. There were days when they deliberately tried to lay it low. After all they both were fucking grown ups, they could manage to keep their hands off each other for a few hours. Not even mentioning that this was work.
And then there were days like today. When he couldn't stop staring at her, because fuck, she was gorgeous. When he just wanted to touch her all the freaking time, lay his arm around her, feeling the weight of her head on his shoulder. She was smiling that smile for fuck's sake. It was unfairly adorable.
So, to get her attention, he reached out and waved his hand in front of her phone's camera. To annoy her a little, to get that little look that said: "Seriously Cole?" but at the same time brought a smile to her face. It worked. She turned around with the phone, smiling broadly, suppressing a giggle.
"Are you listening? I'm trying to talk to you Cole." he heard Cami say.
"I'm trying to ignore you Cami."
With a smooth swift Lili turned towards Cami, then burst out into a giggle looking at the expression on her face and put the phone down. God, she was beautiful.
They kept goofing around a little more, just until the lighting for the scene was set up properly, then everyone switched back into professional mode.
When they finally finished, Cole couldn't help himself. In the van that got them to the next location, he pulled her closer and kissed her forehead, ignoring Cami's eyeroll. Lili put her head on his shoulder, locking her fingers with his.
The rest of the ride he whispered stupid jokes, those kind of jokes, that nobody else understood but made him and Lili crack up. He loved to make her laugh. No matter if it was a giggle or if she laughed wholeheartedly, it made him just fucking happy to see her eyes sparkle.
"Seriously, you two look like love sick puppies." Cami scoffed.
"Don't be jealous."
Cami rolled her eyes again but grinned. They were kind of cute, she had to admit that.
A few hours later
Cole had laid down on the floor, and budged his jacket together under his head, to see if he could get at least a few minutes of sleep in. It had been a long day, and there were still more than a few hours left to shoot.
The only problem was, that he was kind of a light sleeper and the constant noise around the set didn't really help with that. There was always someone talking, the noise of something that got set up, hell even the low buzz of the cameras.
Right now, he could hear Lili's and Cami's and Casey's voices floating over from the set of the student lounge, filming some light scene, that was supposed to be "best friends talk". KJ had ran off somewhere, probably craft services. The only person that was left in the room was Drew, who was supposed to film a scene with Casey later. He tried to shut it all out, but it didn't really work. Just right the moment he was drifting off to sleep, something new came to disturb him and he sat up and rubbed his eyes in frustration. Well then, no nap.
Suddenly he heard steps behind him, then she dropped down on the floor next to him. He hadn't even noticed that they had finished filming the scene. Her hand came up to play with the hair right over his neck.
"Tired?" Lili asked.
He nodded.
"Yeah. But it's impossible to nap here."
She looked at him for a minute, shook her head a little and got up. He watched as she disappeared out of the room and came back a few minutes later, clutching two cushions.
"What the...?"
"From Betty's room. Nobody needs them now and we'll bring them back later. And now shush and let's have a nap."
Cole looked at her, not all to convinced, but then she slopped down beside him, stretching out on the floor, looking up at him.
"What are you waiting for Sprouse? It's not like we have time to nap all day."
For a moment he gazed around the room, then shrugged. Fuck it. She was right. He lay down next to her and pulled her close. As she snuggled against him, he felt his thoughts stop spinning. Suddenly it was just the warmth of her body cuddled up against him, the peachy smell of her hair and her breath slowing down, synchronizing with his. Everything else faded into the background. Before long, he was drifting off.
He woke again, when Lili sat up.
"Don't" he mumbled, wrapping his arms around her again.
"I'm on now, babe." she said with a little giggle. Reluctantly he opened his eyes and sat up too. His neck gave an uncomfortable crack, but he felt the most relaxed he had been all day.
"Don't you have to go too?" Cole turned around to look at the clock on the wall behind them.
"I still have another 30 minutes until I have to be at the trailer set." Lili leaned over to kiss him, then got up.
Cole reluctantly let go off her hand and looked after her. Behind him he heard Drew chuckle and turned around, looking at him with a raised eye brow.
"What?"
"You guys are just ridiculously cute. Do you even realize that? Like are you ever not touching each other?"
"Barely"
