Sleeping Troubles

John pulled the jacket closer to himself as a cold breeze rushed passed him. He couldn't sleep so he decided he would slip out and get some fresh air. When he had left Bobby was snoring away peacefully and he hadn't slept a wink, because he had way to many things on his mind.

"What are you doing out here?" a female voice asked from behind him.

"I could ask you the same thing," he replied. He turned around to find Kitty standing behind him in flannel pajamas and a large t-shirt with a blanket wrapped around her small shoulders. John took a step towards his girlfriend, for about a year now the two had been going out, and with further inspection realized the large shirt was one of his that he had thought he lost.

"Couldn't sleep," she said with a small shrug. John walked up to her and wrapped his arms around her and placed his chin on top of her head. Kitty laid her head against John's chest and listened to his steady heartbeat. John shivered slightly and Kitty leaned back to look into his green-blue eyes. They leaned in and shared a passionate kiss then pulled out for air. Kitty had a slight glaze over her eyes and shivered slightly. She pulled away and took his large hands in her small ones and dragged him in the mansion and headed to the school's recreation room.

John sat down on the couch as Kitty went and grabbed some blankets and then came, sat back down, and wrapped the covers around John and her. Kitty laid her head down on John's shoulder and just listened to his breathing; John wrapped his arm around her and pulled her closer to him. Kitty slowly drifted into a peaceful sleep while John just sat there thinking about all the wonderful things that had happened to him that year.
