My head rested comfortably on Shawn's shoulder; a DVD player sat on his lap, positioned so we could both see the screen perfectly. I wasn't really paying attention to the movie; I kept drifting in and out of sleep. I was tired, to say the least. All I wanted was to get to the hotel, and sleep for a good four hours before the show started. The credits rolled on the screen and I removed my head from Shawn's shoulder. "That was so good!" I said, smiling wide. Shawn gave me a sly smile, "How would you know? You were asleep for half of it." He finished off with a laugh. I smiled, "You caught me. I'm just so damned tired." I said, yawning at the end of my sentence. "Well, I think we're almost at the hotel, anyways." I smiled. "Oh, I've got a surprise for you too." He said, putting the DVD player away. "Oh? And what's that? Wait. I bet you can't tell me 'because it's a surprise'" I said; giving the last bit a sarcastic tone. He smiled and nodded, "Exactly." I laughed, "It better not be anything disgusting, like last time." I said, referring to the time he decided to leave a three day old batch of sushi in my room. That smelled great and the cleaning staff loved me the day they finally found it. He shook his head, smiling, "It's not. Don't worry."
I had stayed behind on the bus, while the rest went off to get settled in their hotel rooms, review scripts; whatever. I checked, and double checked, the bus, making sure nobody had left anything important behind. I had found a cell phone, a book, and a wallet. Brian had already agreed to take my things to my room; so all I had was the few objects left behind. I left the bus and entered the hotel. I found Amy at the front desk; a clipboard in her hand. I smiled as I approached her, "People left these. I don't know who's they are, but they're your problem now." I said, giving her a small laugh at the end. She smiled and took the things from my hands and placed them on the counter behind her, "I'll take care of it." "Oh, what room am I in, by the way?" I asked. She looked over her list, "Room, 318." She said, smiling, and handing me the room key. "Thanks. See you later." I said, walking away to the elevator.
I opened the door to my hotel room, finding something I didn't expect. Shawn. I stood in the doorway, smiling, dumbfounded. "Is this my surprise?" I asked. He smiled wide, "Yep!" I returned the smile and made my way through the room. "You won't mind that there's only one bed?" I asked. He shook his head, "Should I mind that I get to share a bed with a beautiful woman?" He asked, raising an eyebrow. I laughed and laid down on the bed. Shawn sat next to me, "You want something to eat? I'm calling room service." He said, picking up the phone. "Nah, I'm just gonna sleep. Can you wake me up at 4:30 please?" I asked him. He smiled and nodded. "Sure." "Thank you" I said before closing my eyes and drifting off into dreamland.
