Word Count: 1900

After Micah got drunk and confessed his love for you (and started getting all lovey-dovey with you) you tried to pay for two rooms upstairs at the saloon. But they only had one room available so you had to make do, you could tell that Micah was pleased with the change of plans. You had both planned to just ride back to camp but you decided that Micah was far too drunk to do that.

You dragged him up to the room before throwing him down on the bed, only for him to drag you down with him while you both laughed and huffed in annoyance at the same time. Eventually, after prying yourself out of his arms you both fell asleep.

You hadn't planned on sleeping in the same bed at Micah because you knew that he wouldn't remember any of this in the morning and he would definitely get defensive. Yet here you were, in the same bed as him.

Surprisingly, Micah didn't make a move on you once in the bed. He just shuffled closer to you, from behind you, and wrapped his arm around your waist and pulling you back so that your back was pressed against his chest. He buried his face in your hair and mumbled something about loving you before falling asleep, you fell asleep soon after and found his embrace really comforting.

The next morning rolled around and you woke up with a strong arm wrapped around your waist and holding you. You remembered everything from the previous night but you knew that Micah wouldn't, he had far too much to drink. You heard the man behind you groan as he pulled you a little closer. He groaned again and then there was a pause before you felt him tense. He quickly removed his arm from around your waist and completely pulled away from you. That's when you turned around to face him, he was already looking at you but had a conflicting expression on his face.

"Why are you in bed with me?" Micah asked, his brow slowly furrowing in confusion as he just stared at you. He took a moment to glance down and relaxed a little when he realised that you were both completely dressed, but like...you were both too dressed for people who are sleeping.

"Because there was only one room and you insisted that I lay in bed with you, then you pretty much forced me to cuddle with you" you told him, laughing slightly when you realised that he really didn't remember anything. Oh, this was going to be interesting.

"I did no such thing" he scoffed as he turned his head to look up at the ceiling. You watched him and tried not to laugh, its like you could see his brain trying to remember the events of the previous night.

"Do you remember anything from last night?" you asked, wondering how easy or difficult this conversation was going to be. You knew that most of the time Micah was his own worst enemy.

"...uh...no" he stopped to think before answering your question with a defeated sigh. Both of you still laying in the same bed, fully dressed, and as far apart as possible.

"Well you, Micah Bell, are a very happy and honest drunk" you informed him with a quiet laugh.

"Oh shit...what did I say?" Micah asked, running his hand over his face. He knew that he wasn't himself when he was drunk, he even laughed with Javier when he was drunk, and he really hoped that he hadn't said anything to embarrass himself in front of you. He had liked you for some time after all.

"Well, you told me that you had fallen off of Baylock, don't worry I promised that I wouldn't tell any body. You told me that your favourite colour is red, that you like Javier's music, that you don't like dogs, and that I can't cut your hair" you told him, starting with the smaller unimportant things that he had told you.
