"Breakfast?" Nate's voice asked.

She looked at the phone in her hand. Had that always been there?

'Did I ring you?' She asked, confused.

Well, it wouldn't be the first time she'd woken up with a phone in her hand. But she usually ended up ringing someone from the top of her phonebook.

Thank god her uncle Aaron was always up so early!

'Nooooooooo,' Nate sounded just as confused. 'I rang you. To ask you if you wanted to get breakfast...Or, lunch, really.'

'What time is it?' She obviously hadn't called him.

What a relief.

Caitlyn was also known for talking in her sleep.

And if she could remember her dream from last night correctly, she didn't really want Nate hearing about it.

'Noon. You slept for about 16 hours straight.'

'What?? Fuck!!'

'What is it Caity?' Nate voice dripped with concern.

Wait, did he just call her Caity???

Weirdness.

'I-Eh-Well, you see the thing is-' she faltered.

'Spit it out Caitlyn!' he demanded, although not in a mean way.

She didn;t want to admit this though. Not to him.

'I wanted to be out to the pool first,' she finally admitted, blushing furiously into her phone.

She was wide awake now, but Mitchie was still snoring softly beside her. Peggy and Ella were both long gone.

Nate began to laugh. A lot.

'Oh believe me Cait. You were first into that pool. Do you not remember?'

'Remember what?' Seh hesitated.

'Oh my god. I knew you were tired, but how can you forget falling into a pool?'

'I DID NOT fall into a pool.....Did I?'

'Yup,' He was laughing again.

Slowly, the things he was talking about flooded her brain.

Nate.

Edge of pool.

Just a few inches and he'd be saturated.

She'd moved forward.

He'd grabbed her.

She'd struggled.

But she was really just too tired.

They both fell.

It made sense now. She had expected the ice cold water to wake her up.

That was why she hadn't struggled. She'd wanted to stay awake.

Because she didn't want her time with him to end.

But of course, an expensive hotel like this one had heated pools.

And it relaxed her more than words could describe.

'Come on,' he'd whispered. 'Time for bed I guess.'

'No,' she struggled as he tried to carry her to the edge of the pool.

A feeble attempt.

It was broad daylight but her eyes were beginning to close. Everything was getting darker.

It remained dark until a few moments ago. When Nate's voice trilled in her ear.

Too loudly.

'Was I...' She hated to ask. 'Taalking in my sleep?'

'Oh yes,' Nates laughter grew stronger. 'It was quite entertaining actually.'

'What did I say?' she sighed.

'Well, I believe it was soemthing along the lines of "Oh Edward. Take me Edward. I'll be your Mrs Cullen"'

'.God.' Was there any point in blushing at the phone? Not really.

Didn't stop her though.

A knock on the door caused her thoughts to change direction.

Probably the maid. Nate was a guy after all. He couldn't be expected to remember the Do Not Disturb sign.

'Oh my god your blushing,' Nate laughed when she opened the door.

Looking down at her Super Woman shorts she quickly grabbed a jumper.

'So who's this Edward guy? Should I be worried?' he continued, pretending not to notice her feeble attemots to cover ehrself up.

'Fictional Character Nathanial. Fictional Character.'

Was it jsut her, or did relief just cross his face.

'Sooo...Breakfast?' he asked.

Yup, it was definitely relief.

What was up with that?

She looked at herself again before answering. 'You really expect mee to go out like this?'

'What are you talking about? You look beautiful.'

Relief was replaced with a furious blush not only from her, but from him as well.

'Tell you what,' she said, breaking the silence that folowed his obviously accidental outburst. 'You go find Shane, I'll wake Mitchie, we'll get dressed, you can wait and moan for a while, and then we'll all go to breakfast.'

He looked at his watch.

'Lunch,' was all he said before turning and leaving.

'This probably wasn't the greatest idea,' Caitlyn said, looking across the table at Shane and Mitchie, who were wrapped around each other.

'No,' Nate agreed. 'Probably not.'

'We could leave?' she suggested.

'Would they notice?' he wondered.

They both looked at Shane and Mitchie.

'No,' they agreed simultaniously.

Standing up to leave, Nate remembered what he had been planning to do that day.

And Caitlyn would be the prefect person to help.

He grabbed her hand and pulled her towards a back exit.

'Where are we going?' she asked, loving the warmth his hand was radiating.

'You'll see,' he winked.

And her heart soared.

Jeese, we're goin all Naitlyn, aren't we?!

Anyway, review please!!
