Billies POV

I wake up, snuggled against Katherines side, with her arm bent in weird positions just so that she could be next to me.

Her sleeping face is so adorable.

I get up, realizing I'm not home.

Shit.

My mom knows I'm here so she probably just guessed I was staying here tonight.

"Hey, babe." I say, shaking Katherine slightly.

She wakes up startled, laughing when she sees it's just me.

"Just me." I say, smiling. "I'm gonna order some breakfast. What do u want?"

She sighs, rubbing her eyes and throwing herself back into the pillow.

"Granola bowl from Urth, please." She says, mumbling into the pillow. "And a coffee. You know how I like it."

I go to Ubereats and click Urth Cafe, ordering her food, and then mine.

"Come cuddle." Katherine says, laying spread out on the bed, waiting for me.

"Alright, let me finish ordering." I say, clicking through all the options.

After I finish ordering, I text my mom, just so she knows where I am.

"im still at katherines ill be home later. love youuuu."

Send.

I climb into bed with Katherine, setting my phone down beside us. She tangled her legs into mine, putting her head on my chest and her arms around me.

"Only for twenty minutes." I say, putting my chin on her head.

We cuddled and laid in the silence for twenty minutes until the Ubereats guy got to her house.

"Gotta go get the food, babe." I say, slowly untangling our bodies.

"Okay." She says, fully awake.

I love when she doesn't fall asleep while we cuddle, because that means she just lies awake in my arms and just enjoys it.

And I think that's really cute.

"Hey man." I say as I open the door, and I'm welcomed by not a guy, but a girl.

"Oh shit, sorry. The name on the app said Tyler." I say, realizing.

"Yep, that's me. Curse my parents for giving me a guy name, I guess." She says, not even looking up. "Here ya go."

She pauses, staring at me. Her mouth was wide open, as she still holds the bag that both our hands are now on.

I take the bag out of her hands, setting it on the table beside the door.

She pulls out her phone, just silently showing me her lock screen, which was in fact, me.

I reach out for a hug immediately and she smiles, still frozen in my arms.

"There's no way this is happening right now." She says, finally hugging me back.

"Damn, I thought we were just getting food, not hugging bitches at my front door." Katherine says, walking up behind me.

"Babe, it's a fan." I say, turning around.

"Why do fans know my address-" She says, stopping before she saw the girl in an Ubereats uniform. "Nevermind."

The girl just stands there, looking sort of confused and uncomfortable.

I realize I just called Katherine babe in front of her, and Katherine was wearing practically nothing, and I was in her house.

This looks so great.

"Uh, the cost is $20.83" She says, nervously.

I hand her a twenty dollar bill and then a 10, "keep the change."

"Hey, I love you. take care of yourself please." I say, waving goodbye to her.

That was so fucking awkward.

I set the food on the coffee table, plopping down on the couch. I open my arms as if I'm hugging someone, signaling Katherine to come cuddle beside me.

She sits down next to me, cuddling to my side, picking up her bowl to start eating.

"I love you." She says, looking up at me.

"Well, I love you too." I put my hand on her cheek. "I mean it."

She chuckles, and pushes my face away playfully.

"I cant stand you sometimes." She says, rolling her eyes. But, we both know that's a lie.

"Good thing you're sitting down, then." I say, which makes her jaw open, laughing as if she's offended.

"I hate you." She says, standing up to throw her finished bowl of food away.

"Oh, but you don't." I say, standing up with her.

We laugh our way to the kitchen, and I reach for the fridge to get a water bottle.

"No water left. I finished the last one last night." She says, before I even get to open the fridge.

"You're so mean." I say, fake pouting.

"I'm sorry ma'am, but you don't live here. My water is not just for you." She says, walking out of the kitchen.

God, I love her.

"Hey, you wanna go to Disney tomorrow? I'm not busy, and I'm sure you aren't either." I ask.

I plop down on the couch, and she pops her head out of the kitchen doorway, just staring at me.

"Who the fuck would say no to Disney?" She says, scoffing. "Of course I wanna go."

"Disney it is, then."
