Bailey's POV

I woke up with my back to Noah's chest and his arm around my waist. His head was buried in the back of my neck. I smiled to myself, if this is what I get to wake up to every morning if I was Noah's girlfriend, I would be perfectly okay with that. Noah's alarm went off and he groaned. I reached over him and turned it off, then turned so I was facing him. Noah nuzzles his head in the crook of my neck, his grip around my waist a little tighter. I smiled, running my fingers through his hair. I loved his haircut and his beard. The sun was shinning through the curtain in the window of the room, casting a soft glow. I played with Noah's hair while he tried to go back to sleep. 

"I like it when you do that." He mumbles. I giggled, "I thought you wanted to go back to sleep?" Noah responded with a soft kiss on my neck then pulled away so he could look at me.

"Why did I not notice these last night?" He looks at the pj shorts I was wearing, they had little slices of Pepperoni pizza's with faces. 

"It was Hallie's idea to get them for me for my win last night."

"Cute." He teases, running his fingers down my thigh, then all the way up and underneath the fabric. I kissed his cheek and got up.

"Where are you goin?" He asks, raising his eyebrow.

"Well...Hallie's up by now and I did promise her I'd go shopping with her. And I have an interview today."

"But you're comin to the race tonight, right?" He asks sitting up. He looked hopeful and I was already planning on going since Hallie and Zach wanted to go too.

"Yeah. Hallie and Zach are going too. No doubt they'll be doing it on the bleachers." I mumbled and looked at Noah who was laughing. Guess I said that last part out loud.

"So I'll see you later?" He asks, poking my sides.

"Yeah." I smiled up at him. Noah slaps my ass before I opened the door. I turned around and smacked his shoulder but giggled. I closed the door before he could get me back and heard him laughing from inside. I turned around to head back to my room but almost bumped into Noah's crew chief.

"Hi Dave." I smiled and then ran off. God that was awkward, but I'm laughing on the inside. I knocked on the door and waited for Hallie to open it.

"Oh there you are." She says hugging me. "Where were you?"

"Well, when ya'll were gettin down and dirty I went over to Noah's room to sleep on the couch." Hallie looked at Zach.

"Not my fault I do what I do well." He smirks. I rolled my eyes, shaking my head. "Sorry B."

"Sooooo....what happened between you and Noah?"

"I ended up sleeping in his bed and we kinda cuddled this morning." 

"AWWWWWWW!" Zach and Hallie gushed. My face was turning pink and I groaned.

"Okay, Zach as much as I would absolutely love to spend the day with you, I'm gonna go shopping with Bailey." I got into the shower as fast as I could, knowing Hals would take forever. I dressed in ripped jeans and a gray Bass Pro Shops shirt with my last name spread across the back. I came back out and sat on my bed, scrolling through twitter thanking everyone who congratulated me.

"Hey B! I forgot to give this to you last night. My Uncle knows the dude who own's pizza hut and he wants to sponsor you. I texted Alan the info." He says, handing me a piece of paper.

"Seriously? Oh man thats awesome! Thank you Z!" I smiled, looking at the paper. Hallie smiles from the bathroom doorway.

"Ready to go now?" Hallie smiles. I nodded and left the paper sitting on the nightstand.
