SHORT CHAPTER SORRY WILL UPDATE SOON!
She dreamt of what she always dreamt when she was by his side, life after the war but this one felt strange like there was an edge of reality to it like a distant memory struggling to break free. But she didn't really take notice because why would she when she was there with him by her side and they were happy and he was smiling and laughing, oh that laugh, it warmed her heart more than a thousand matched ever could.
She opened her eyes and was relived to see that they didn't have a paparazzi capturing their every move on camera. She rolled over and stretched her arms out then rolled back to her spot to continue sleeping, the whole second witness of the apocalypse job wasn't exactly 9-5 so she took the chance to sleep in whenever she could.. She closed her eyes, rolled onto her side and fell asleep within moments.
He woke up feeling a hot breath on his neck and jumped a little when he opened his eyes and found that Abbies face was mere millii-metres from his own. He took a deep breath and rolled over reaching his arm across Abbie to grab her phone, once he had it in his hands he rolled back over and pressed the button on the top of the device which he had since learnt caused the device to light up. A smile spread across his face before he was able to check the time as he saw a 'selfie' as Abbie had put it that they had taken a week before the 'incident' as they now referred to it had taken place.
" What are you doing?" she asked sleepily.
" Oh" he said fumbling the phone in his hands " i was merely checking the time". She knew he was lying well partly lying he may have gone to check the time but he had ended up staring at the picture of them she had as lock screen so she decided to play along so she looked at him expectantly waiting for him to tell her time. He just gazed back at her the confusion clear on his face he obviously was not realising what she was waiting for him to do.
"The time?" she finally spelled it out for him.
" Oh the time of course, the time is" he stopped, after seeing her lock screen he hadn't actually taken notice of the time, he pressed down on the top of the device so it lit up and tried as discretely as possible to look down and as he did he read the time out loud. " The time is 10.30" he said trying to hide the astonishment in his voice, only as a young boy had he ever slept that late. " Oh my it would seem we slept for quite a while". She saw him glance down to check the time but she was too hungry to call him out for it so she let it go and changed the subject.
" Do you wanna grab a bite from the diner before we go to work?" she asked knowing that he would, it was his favorite place and she knew exactly what he would want.
" Can i get that delightful strawberry and cream pie?" he practically begged as his eyes lit up at the idea.
" Sure but only if i get a bite" she said playfully with a giggle. The simple sound of her laughter sparked a wildfire inside of him that he couldn't explain or stop and with every second it grew stronger, threatening to break free so he simply returned the laughter not trusting himself to say a word.
