Day 33 of 100 Days Of Seddie Challenge: Converse

Sam POV

Freddie got into the bed and I suddenly wasn't tired anymore. I thought that it wouldn't be this bad but the thought of him, inches away, sharing the same body heat as me, in the same bed, made my heart race. I had a little crush on his. Okay, maybe not little. More like huge.

I was so still and Freddie hadn't moved since he got in the bed. I doubted he was even breathing unless he absolutely had to. The reason I was still was probably the opposite of why he was still. I was still because we were so close and I wanted to be closer to him but I couldn't so I was planted still so I wouldn't move.

Maybe I could talk to him. Carly and Spencer looked completely dead asleep and they wouldn't hear our conversation. I gave it a try.

"You know, I don't think you can actually sleep if you're lying that stiffly," I whispered to break the silence.

"You should know, you haven't even breathed in the last five minutes," he whispered. His back was to me and he turned around to face me. I was already facing him.

"True," I whispered back to him. His face was peaceful and I didn't understand it. His shoulders had been hunched in an uncomfortable position before I started talking to him but now he was smiling and more relaxed. I felt exactly the same.

"Can't sleep?" he asked me.

"Nope," I replied. "You?"

"Nope," he sighed. "I thought I could but then all my tiredness just went away, you know?"

"Yeah, I know the feeling." I sighed.

"Do you wanna go outside and see the ocean?" Freddie asked me suddenly.

"What, now?" I asked him.

"Yeah, why not. Neither of us can sleep so we might as well."

"Alright then," I said.

Freddie started to quietly get out of the bed and I did too. I searched for my shoes and I couldn't find them.

"Have you seen my Converse, Freddie?" I asked him.

"I don't know, I can't see anything in this dark room," he whispered. "Just wear mine."

He was asking me to wear his Converse. I could see him crouching down and picking up a pair on Converse for me wear and he had a pair already on his feet.

"Seriously?" I asked him.

"Yeah, just put them on, you'll be fine," he said.

"You might have to help me walk," I whispered to him as I put on his four-sizes-too-big shoes. I tried to walk but it didn't really work. He took hold of my arm and helped me walk in them. Electricity and fireworks exploded where his hand was on my arm. My heart skipped a beat.

No one else seemed to be up on the corridor that our room was on. We crept down the hall, me in Freddie's huge Converse sneakers and him guiding me so I wouldn't trip. The boat was only swaying a little bit, you could hardly feel it.

Freddie led me to the door at the end of the corridor that had a sign that indicated that the side of the boat was through that door. Freddie opened the door for us and helped me through.

"Wow," Freddie and I said at the same time. We were gazing up at the full moon that was shining brightly above us. The reflection of it was on the ocean and it looked beautiful.

"Let's go stand by the edge," I said to Freddie, my voice barely above a whisper.

"Okay, careful though, you'll trip in those shoes," Freddie said.

"Pfft, I'll be fine," I told him. I had to hide it but I loved how he cared for me.

"You know what," I said. "I'm just gonna take the shoes off." I slid them off my feet and handed them to Freddie. "There, much better. I look like a clown now."

"You didn't look like a clown," Freddie said, smiling.

"Well I felt like one. I don't understand how clowns can walk around with those big shoes on all day."

Freddie laughed, "'Cause they get paid to do it?" he suggested.

"Probably. My mom dated a clown once," I said.

"Your mom's dated every man with a job," Freddie stated.

"I know, right."

"I can't believe this ocean," Freddie said, looking over the rails. "I feel like I'm on the Titanic."

"Apart from you're not going to die. I won't let you," I said.

He turned his head to look at me. "I wouldn't let you die either."

"Thanks," I said and I turned my head to look at the ocean in front of us. My feet were starting get cold and Freddie could tell because they were turning blue and I was walking on the stop trying to warm them up. He started to walk up to me.

"What're you doing?" I asked him.

"I'm going to carry you," he said simply. He picked me up in a sort of bridal style and looked up at the moon.

"Do you want to go back inside or do you want to stay out here," he asked me.

My yawn that escaped my mouth answered his question for me. "Go inside, I'm tired now."

"Your wish, my command," he said and started to walk back to our room.

When we got back to the room he put me down as close to our bed as he could and I got into the bed while he took his shoes off. I was more relaxed this time. I could feel him get into the bed and with that I feel into a peaceful slumber.

Halfway through the night, I felt tight arms snake around my body. I was facing towards him and I snuggled my face into his chest. If it only lasted one right, I might as well make it last.

I felt a pair of lips press onto the top of my head and I moved my head up and before he could react, I put my lips to his. He kissed me back and I smiled in the low light. I could see a faint smile creeping on his face, too. I snuggled my face back into his chest and fell asleep again.


And if you couldn't guess, in the end, after this story, they end up together! :D I would've made it longer but it was 12.20am when I finished it and I was really tired.

Review! :D
