When Payson wakes up on the couch, she can almost imagine her mother seething if she caught Austin in Payson's bed.
Stretching, she makes her way back towards her room.
Her and Austin didn't do anything wrong, all they did was snuggle and talk and then fall asleep. But Payson had to move to couch, due to the fact that her boyfriend hogged the bed.
Thinking about him and his childish ways made Payson smile. But her smile dropped as her mother was just about to open her door.
"No!" Payson yelled a little to loudly. "Mum what are you doing?"
"Going to put your clothes away."
"I'll take them," her daughter grabbed the basket.
"What are you doing up? It's Sunday, you should be sleeping in."
"I couldn't sleep." It was only half lying to her mother because she didn't sleep very well. "Well, I'll see you later for breakfast... Yeah?"
"Yeah..." Kim Keeler walked away from her daughter's strange behaviour but thought nothing of it.
Payson let out a sigh of relief as she turned her attention back to her bedroom door. Turning the knob slowly, she entered her room.
Setting down the basket, she locked her door and whispered, "Austin? The coast is clear!"
Austin, hearing his sweetheart's voice, rolled out from underneath Payson's bed. "Finally, it was getting a bit boring under there without you."
"Well good morning to you, too." She pecked his cheek.
Austin feigned hurt, "What, that's all the sugar I'm going to get?"
Payson rolled her eyes but complied, kissing her boyfriend of six months on his lips.
"Much better... So, uh, what happened with your mum? I mean, what was that?" He asked, quickly 'recovering' from his 'hurt feelings'.
"That was us almost getting caught... Again." Payson says flatly.
"Well I have a way to avoid that... Let's hide under the bed from now on, your carpet is like a cotton candy cloud."
Payson laughs and soon Austin is laughing as well.
"Good now that we've got the laughter out of the way," Austin pulls Payson against him by her waist, "Can we go under the bed now?"
"Fine." Payson gets down on all fours and Austin joins her.
"Rewrrrrrrr," Austin tries to imitate the way he tried to help her be sexy from about seven months ago.
"Shut up and get under the bed."
"Ooh, you being bossy is so..." Austin fought to find the right word, "Sexy."
"Please don't make me smell more cedar again." She laughs at the memory and he laughs too.
"Yeah, if I give you cedar, we'll actually get caught for once."
They roll under the bed and Payson says, "Alright, let's get caught."
