I'm woken by the sound of my phone ringing in my bedroom across the hall. I open my eyes and look down to see Dean's arm wrapped around my chest. I look back to see Dean's face next to mine, his body pressed against the back of mine. I fit perfectly into his body.

I look at the clock next to Dean's bed. It's two in the afternoon. We fell asleep between three and four in the morning so techincally we got full nights rest. My phone continues to ring, but I let it go to voicemail. Enjoying the comfort of Dean's arms around me.

"Good morning." Dean whispers into my ear.

I turn my body around to face him. Dean keeps his arm wrapped around me.

"Good morning." I smile.

"How did you sleep?" I ask.

"Really good. That was the best sleep I've ever had." Dean responds.

Come to think of it, that was the best sleep I've ever had. I move closer to Dean, keeping my eyes locked with his. Dean looks down at my lips. I can see his desire to kiss me. I want him to kiss me.

"Astra?" He asks.

"Yeah?" I respond.

"I want to kiss you." He says hesitanty.

"Then kiss me." I say with a grin.

Dean runs his hand through my hair, twisting strands of it around his finger. He moves his hand under my chin and gently pulls my face towards his. I watch his lips slowly move towards mine and close my eyes as I prepare for the embrace.

His lips are soft, but cold. I press my lips against his, attempting to warm his lips up. He parts his lips, allowing my tongue to enter his mouth and brush against his tongue. Dean rolls on top of me, holding himself up with his elbows.

This all feels so natural. So comforting. I don't want to let Dean go. There's a knock at the door.

"No..." Dean murmurs.

The knocking continues.

"Maybe they will go away." I whisper with a smile.

"Astra! I know you're in there." Cali yells through the front door.

"What on Earth?" I say to myself.

Dean climbs off of me and I walk out of the room to get the door. I open the door and see Cali and Josh standing there with a bowl of fruit.

"Um, hey Cal. What brings you by?" I ask.

"Oh, Sarah told us you were having all of us over for lunch. Did you forget?" Cali asks embarrassed.

Leave it to Sarah to make her own plans and control all of us. I can't say no. Dean comes up from behind me to greet Cali and Josh.

"You guys look like you just woke up." Cali teases.

I realize I'm still in my pajamas and Dean is half naked. I'm sure ideas are filling up Cali's head of what happened last night.

"Come in. We will go get dressed." I say as I let them enter the house.

I grab Dean by the arm and drag him into my room, closing the door behind us.

"So what's going on?" Dean asks.

"Apparently Sarah invited them over for lunch. Which means she will probably show up." I respond.

"Oh." Dean says.

"Oh? That's all you have to say?" I say angrily.

"This could be good for us." Dean says.

"Good for us? How?" I ask.
