The Distance Between Us [Completed]

Chapter 20

"Why not? Nothing has changed right? We're still friends and why can't friends sleep in the same bed?" Daniel says and I have to admit, when he puts it like that, he is right.

"If you're sure you don't mind."

"I'm sure."

"Alright, let's go to bed."

I wake up with a strange feeling and an arm around my waist. Not as in I'm feeling strange, no I feel something strange against my back, or my bum actually. I turn my head slightly to find Daniel lying behind me. His arm is wrapped around me and he's holding me close to him. Then I realize that he is causing the strange feeling. Just great.

"Daniel," I say softly, trying to wake him up. But it doesn't work, he just pulls me closer against him and sighs happily. Okay, not what I wanted.

"Daniel!" I say a bit louder as I try to remove his arm. He still doesn't budge.

"Daniel!!!" I say with a normal voice now as I try to shake him slightly. Luckily, this does wake him up.

"Violet, hey. Good morning," he says, his voice raspy which sounds really sexy. No, stop. I'm dating Aron now!

"Yeah, I can tell it's good," I say, making Daniel look at me confused. I point downwards and Daniel instantly blushes and moves away from me. I turn on my other side so I'm facing Daniel.

"I'm so sorry."

"It's okay, just a little surprising to wake up to."

"Yeah, maybe I should've told you that that can happen."

"No, you couldn't know that it would happen this morning. Besides, I could've known."

"You could've?" Daniel asks surprised and I nod.

"Yeah, I mean, you're a guy and that just happens just to guys."

"Oh, yeah of course."

"And let's not forget-," I start, but Daniel cuts me off.

"I knew it!" he says, making me laugh.

"It was really funny though."

"For you maybe, not for me," Daniel mumbles, making me laugh even more. I still remember the day as if it were yesterday.

"Good morning," Daniel whispers into my ear, waking me up. I smile and stretch a little after a great night sleep. I always seem to sleep well when I'm sleeping in Daniel's bed. Guess it's just the idea that my best friend is close to me or something.

"Good morning DAN!" I say, yelling out his name in surprise. I moved back a little as I was stretching and I felt something. Something I really didn't want to feel.

"What?"

"Really Dan?"

"What?"

"Morning wood? With me? Really?"

"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry!" Daniel says, blushing hard.

"Do you have something to tell me Dan?"

"No, no don't worry. I can't control it, I swear!"

"Okay, I believe you."

"I'm really sorry Vi."

"It's okay, I understand."

"Come on, it was funny," I say, chuckling slightly.

"Maybe a little. I felt terrible though."

"I know," I say, smirking slightly, making Daniel slap me playfully.
