"It's done with," he said, locking the RV door behind him. Jade shivered, adjusting to the warm sensations racing through her body, as Beck rubbed her shoulder.

"I disappear for hours, come back, yell, walk out again, then you pick me up over your shoulder and carry me back in, just to tell me it's "done with"?"

"Pretty much."

"I don't get it."

She looked at him, her eyes furrowing with confusion, when he leaned forward to kiss her lips; it was a gentle, chaste kiss, but she still wasn't expecting that.

"Jade, you don't have to 'get it' right now. What you need to do is go to sleep."

"What's the point? I'd have to get up in two hours anyway, for school."

"Then have the best two hours sleep you've ever had."

"That's not a sleep. That's a nap." She tried to sound snappy, but it just wasn't working out for her; she put it down to the look he was giving her, with his big doe eyes.

"Shouldn't you be counting sheep by now?" he whispered, his breath tickling her ear; she hadn't even realised he was anywhere near her ear, before he kissed her lips again, sliding her jacket off. He wished her goodnight, smoothing her hair down, as she slipped under the covers. He followed suit, turning the lamp off behind him. His arm snaked around her waist, but this time, it didn't feel suffocating. It felt right. It made her wonder why she ever went for a walk in the first place.

She sat up in bed, feeling unusually refreshed. She glanced at the clock, which read 10:43. Shit.

"Beck, why the fuck did you let me sleep in when we have scho-"

"Babe, relax," he said, handing her a cup of piping hot coffee. "School sent a text to my mom, they're having some last minute inset day, or something, so, no school!"

"How convenient," Jade scoffed, taking a long swig from her coffee mug, letting the hot, strong liquid trickle down her throat.

"So...I was thinking...movie day?"

"Sure, whatever."
