A soft alarm echoed inside their room, waking up the sleeping beauty. She turned over on the bed and lay on her back, moaning at the sudden interruption. Was it time already? She felt that she barely got any sleep at all!

She counted to ten before she forced her eyes open, and rubbed the sleep from them. 'Alright! Wake up, Abi. It's time to go,' she encouraged herself. She turned the bedside lamp on, flung the covers off her and got up off the bed. She stretched and then looked back at the bed to see if she needed to wake Alex up.

Her eyes were met with a pair of charcoal eyes already awake and alert. Her heart thudded in her chest for a wild second.

"Good morning, Alex. How long have you been awake for?" she asked, trying to calm her racing heart. God, why did he have to look so damn good?

"Good morning, little lamb. I woke up not too long ago," he answered.
