This chapter is pretty short but quite fluffy. Enjoy.
Six o'clock. Why did his body always wake him up at six o'clock? Even on the rare occasion that he'd have the day to do nothing he couldn't make himself lie in. Ugh, he was shattered.
Lifting his head up slightly Lee frowned at the unfamiliar surrounding he had found himself in. He hadn't done anything stupid had he? Then he remembered and a sense of happiness and relief washed over him all at the same time. Letting his head fall back down onto the pillow he turned it slightly.
Lucy was still sleeping next him, bare shoulders just visible underneath the duvet and her fist clenched next to her face, she looked adorable. Her hair was slightly wild but it suited her. Turning onto his side, Lee tentatively reached out and tucked a stray strand of hair that had fallen in front of her face to behind her ear.
Lee didn't want to wake her but he'd have to leave soon, so leaning forward he pressed a tender kiss to her forehead as her eyes slowly fluttered open at the contact, a small smile spreading across her face. Leaning back in he pressed another kiss this time to her cheek and then to the end of her nose before finally kissing her briefly on the lips.
"Good morning," she mumbled as he brought her closer.
"Morning," he replied before trying to kiss her again, only to have her shake her head, "what? Why?" He stuttered completely confused and a bit hurt.
"I've got morning breath," ah that was a relief.
"I don't care," he answered with a chuckle, "but you do. Mint?" He asked as he got out of bed and grabbed his trousers that were by the door. Taking the pack of mints he had out of his pockets he took one before throwing them to her.
Jumping back into bed and slightly on top of her, he grinned down as he kissed the side of her neck, cool breath because of the mints ghosting over skin. Trailing the kisses upwards he paused just in front of her lips, "can I kiss you now?"
"If you must," Lucy replied trying to feign interest as his lips descended onto hers. The kiss was lazy but slightly playful. Pulling back he grinned before kissing her again. This kiss soon turned passionate as one hand kept him up and the other in her hair, as hers held onto his back.
Hearing his phone beep Lucy mumbled, "ignore it," into the kiss and he had no intention of stopping until the damn thing beeped five more times.
"I've got to check it," he said in between kisses as Lucy sighed. Climbing out of bed he made his way back over toward his jeans, this time taking his phone out. Groaning at the text saying he had to go back now he began to get dressed.
Turning back to Lucy who was sat up slightly in bed, with the sheet wrapped under her arms, he apologised as he made up his belt buckle. Smiling sadly up at him he promised he'd phone her later as he kissed her one last time on the lips and then the forehead before going to find the rest of his stuff.
"Have you been sat out here all night?" Lee questioned Paul as he did up his last button on his shirt and tucking it in as Paul took hold of his backpack.
"Yes," the security guard replied as he handed Lee his flat cap,"you shouldn't have stayed the night anyway. It was risky. They'll be having breakfast in an hour."
"Right, sorry," Lee replied as they jogged down the stairs and onto the streets, luckily it was quiet at this time, the only people out were the drunks that were somehow still standing from the night before.
"It doesn't matter," Paul replied as they rounded the corner, luckily the flat wasn't that far away from the palace, "she's a pretty girl... Did you enjoy last night?" He asked cheekily.
"I was waiting for that question. You can't tell Toby. Just say I fell asleep on her sofa or something," Lee begged as they rounded the corner secretly into the alleyway.
"He'll never believe it," Paul answered as he took hold of the rope and swung it over the wall. Hopefully Toby was occupying the man in the security room.
"It was worth the try," Lee replied as he grabbed Paul's hand and helped him up onto the wall before jumping down and then hiding the rope behind the nearby plant pot.
Taking the hat off of Lee's head and handing him a pair of suit trousers and decent shoes. Quickly changing Lee shoved the clothes and converse into the backpack as Paul zipped it back up and slung it back onto his shoulders. Flattening his hair Paul and Lee made it inside, both going in different directions.
When he got to his room Toby was there waiting, when Lee told him the truth he then had a bollocking, which then led to teasing. At breakfast when asked about his day he said he went horse riding, it wasn't a lie but it wasn't the compete truth.
