Julia's POV
I have been sat on his lap for around fifteen minutes without us saying a word to each other, only our soft breathing is heard throughout this small room and every so often I feel his warm breath fam my neck. It's oddly comforting having his arms around my waist that haven't been there in so long. If we stay like this any longer I may fall asleep in his arms.
"Asher?" I whisper.
"Hmm?" He replies in a hum.
I unwrap his arms from around my waist and stand up in front of him, "I think I should go to bed" I tell him.
He nods and stands up, it looks as if he's had his eyes shut this entire time or has been asleep, "I best go home then..to my empty apartment" he chuckles and runs a hand through his messy hair.
I look down to the floor hesitant with my words, "You can stay here if you want?" I can tell he doesn't want to go and I would be lying if I said I didn't want him to stay. I'm enjoying his company after not having it for so long.
"Really, you don't mind? I promise I won't steal the duvet again" He jokes and quickly glances to my bed in memory.
I shrug, "It's no problem I'll just sleep on Nelly's bed, you can take mine"
I can see it in his eyes he doesn't want me sleeping on another bed but just because we are getting along doesn't mean I'll sleep with him and forgive.
"Okay" he agrees, "You sure though because I can easily go home?"
"Yes I'm sure" I giggle and climb into Nelly's bed, "Turn the light off" I tell him.
He clears his throat ripping his eyes away from me before flicking the light switch off and I'm met with complete darkness, I hear him shuffling around.
"What are you doing?" I ask.
"I'm not sleeping in my jeans" I hear his jeans hit the floor along with something else which I'm thinking is his t-shirt, he climbs into my bed with a sigh.
My eyes soon adjust to the darkness and I turn on my side looking towards my bed, "Can I ask a question?"
"Not making promises that I'll actually answer but yeah, go ahead" I see his eyes staring back into mine as he lays on his side facing towards me.
"What's your favourite colour?"
He lets out a low laugh like it wasn't the question he expected, "I don't really have one, it's just colours but if I really had to chose...something cool like turquoise" his response confident.
I laugh, "Turquoise is cool?"
"Of course, the coolest. Indigo smacks too"
I laugh aloud at how outrageous his answer is, normally people would chose simple colours like blue or green.
