DUSK TILL DAWN , MILEVEN AU

31.

el grinned as she shook mike awake. "mike, mike," she mumbled, grinning at the sunrise view in her room.

he had fell asleep after reading to her last night and she insisted he slept in her room.

"what?" he mumbled and she continued to shake him till his eyes opened and looked at the clock on the nightstand.

"it's 6am,"

she pouted. "but sunrise," she pointed to her floor to ceiling window as he gave a tired smile and brushed away some hair from her face.

"you wanted me to watch the sunrise with you?"

she nodded repeatedly. "yes, yes. i'm sorry if i woke you, but i just wanted you to experience it with me,"

he sat up, "of course," he said tiredly then got off the bed, pulling her by the armpits and off the bed.

"come this way," he carried her to the small bench seat they had and sat her down. "happy?"

she nodded and leaned into him. "very,"

he dropped down to press his forehead to hers for a quick second and she smiled and tipped her head just for her lips to touch the tip of his nose quickly.

pulling back, she wrapped both hands around his arm and began to tell him about her dream last night, him listening in silence to not distract her.

she perked up when she was done. "what did you dream of then?"

"you,"

she smiled as her cheeks heated up to a deep shade of red. "is that so?"

he nodded. "we were having a picnic in the backyard. we made a small fishpond with a small bridge.. biscuit was with us chasing butterflies like she used to at the park like you said. we were having a great time."

her hand cover her mouthed and even giggled at the thought. "that sounds amazing, oh my god,"

he grinned widely and kissed her temple quickly. "it does, doesn't it," he murmured, "let's have our own picnic this weekend,"

"right.. it's the weekday. i'm sorry, i forgot. you need to go to work,"

he caressed her cheek. "it's okay.. i had to wake in an hour anyways,"

she nodded. "we can stay up for a few more minutes and you can head back to bed."

"or... we can head down to a cafe for breakfast and then we can come back before i go to work,"

she smiled gently then nodded. "i'll like that,"

he leaned in and kissed her forehead, the kiss lingering for a few seconds. "go get dressed then, sweetheart,"

she nodded again then got up to get dressed.

el grinned widely as she walked down the road and to the nearby store.

her smile widened when she walked in and saw what she was looking for... lollipops!

grabbing the tin, she dropped it into her cart and proceeded to walk around the store to find anything else she may liked.

thank god mike gave her a card just for safety but she knew it was just because he knew she always liked to run away during the day.

like she was doing now.

after she got everything she wanted, she proceeded to the checkout and then paid for everything she bought.
