"Wake up." Camila cooed smushing Lauren's nose lightly with her finger.

"No."

She poked the nose of her fiancée again. "Yes."

"It's too early."

Camila's warm chocolate eyes traced over the photographer's features as she laid on her stomach facing the brunette. Camila was curled up on her side tracing Lauren's lips with her index finger. "It's nearly eight."

The raven haired woman let out a rough laugh with the side of her face mushed to the mattress. "Right...nearly eight...too early."

The brunette dropped her hand to trace over Lauren's fingers as her hand laid between them on the bed. "When do you normally wake up?"

"When I go to work."

Camila bit her bottom lip as she drew light designs over the back of Lauren's hand. "And when you're not working?"

"Later."

"That was informative."

"You asked."

The brunette watched intently as her finger moved slowly up Lauren's wrist to her forearm, matching the soft sensation she felt to the sight before her eyes. "The morning is lonely."

Lauren furrowed her brow but didn't open her eyes. "What?"

"It's a lonely time." Camila explain, shifting slightly to tuck her other hand under her head so she could see as her finger moved a little higher along the top of Lauren's forearm. "No one is awake. Everything is quiet...I'm all by myself."

Slowly the raven haired opened her eyes slightly and looked at Camila closely. "Then why are you such a morning person?"

Camila smiled lightly and ran the palm of her hand down Lauren's arm and tucked her fingers around hers. "Because when you have someone with you, it's like you are cheating the day by a few hours before everyone else comes to life. You get that little bit extra time that no one else does."

"And you think I'm the deep and insightful one." Lauren joked before she moaned as she pushed herself off the mattress and closer to Camila. They broke their hands apart and Lauren wrapped hers around Camila's waist while Camila cupped the photographer's cheek with hers.

"I have my moments. So, are you going to wake up now?"

The raven haired shifted her eyes up to the ceiling and then back to the brunette. "I thought I was awake?"

"You know what I mean."

"What do you mean?" Lauren asked teasingly. "Tell me so I'll know."

Camila shook her head at the adorable woman. "You're a dork. A cute dork, but a dork none the less. But are you awake enough to have a serious discussion?"

"How serious?" Camila slapped her playfully. "Yeah. I am."

"Good, because I've been thinking, and I know we haven't discussed specifics, but..."

Lauren arched an eyebrow. "But..."

"I want to have the first baby."

Silence filled the room while Lauren's expressions shifted continuously from shocked to confused to amused to panicked to pensive and back. "Okay...maybe I wasn't awake enough for that." Camila pouted and the raven haired pulled her closer in apology. "It's just...well, many things. Firstly, we haven't even set a date for the wedding. Secondly, I thought you were going to wait to have a baby because of the time it would require you to be away from the stage. You're already taking time off for the wedding and honeymoon and..."
