Shooting up from your sleep, you hold your hand to your chest, leaning back against the pillows and the headboard of the bed, catching your breath.

You had just had a nightmare, a very vivid one at that. You close your eyes, letting your head lean back for a bit, taking the time to compose yourself thoroughly, or at least a bit.

Your girlfriend, maddie, laying next to you, groans in response to your movements and noises, staying asleep for the most part though. Her hand under her head, peacefully dozed off.

You sigh, taking the hand off of your chest to gently place it on her arm, trailing your fingers down her skin, reminding yourself she’s was right there.

You peel the comforter off of your body, moving to sit on the edge of your guy’s shared bed, leaning forward, slouching.

Your gaze falling from the beautiful scenery of this city filled with chaos to your hands together in your lap.

Pulling you from your thoughts, you feel her hand rest against your shoulder, her head on your backside, causing you to tense up.

“Did I wake you..?” You whisper in a apologetic tone, causing her to softly nod her head, but not upset at all. She had work in the morning, yet she was up at.. who knows what hour with you now.

“Up again..? This city isn’t going anywhere.” She mummer’s sleepily to you, lifting her head up so her chin rest on your shoulder, hugging you close against her chest/front. You let out a long sigh you forgot you were holding.

“I just..” You trail off, letting your eyes close shut as you feel her place kisses on your shoulder.

“You can call it off..” She reminds, focused on practically drowning you in her affection. Her hand falls right to yours, letting your thumb brush against her skin.
