The robots ordered you all to get back to your rooms not long after. You didn't make any fuss, just glad you got a good full meal for once. You quickly made your way back to your rooms without any hassle with the robots as the door closed behind you. You waited a few seconds before trying the door again.

"What are you doing?" Missy asked you.

You tried to turn the door handle one last time but it was definitely locked closed.

"The door's like properly locked closed" you sighed, stepping away from it. "I just don't understand why they locked us inside"

"We're going to find out tomorrow. For now though, it's getting late. Best get ready for bed you" Missy told you.

"What about you? You're talking as though I'm the only one that has to go to sleep" you asked.

"Well I'm a time lady. Don't sleep nearly as much as humans do." She said simply.

"The doctor said that" you mumbled. "Are there any spare clothes to change into?"

Missy looked around the room, scanning the walls in a little more detail than before. You heard her gasp and saw her smiling in victory as she pushed the walls apart which was a built in, very well disguised, wardrobe. You quickly made your way to the wardrobe, only to reveal simple attire.

"Great. Fashion just goes down the drain in the future then" you sighed, taking out some softer clothes for the night.

Missy chuckled a little and you laughed a little yourself. You could hardly look at Missy after the last stupid question you asked at the dinner table. You didn't even know how the hell you could have ended up saying that! To your crush as well!

"Imma just go change" you said, heading towards the bathroom and locking the door shut.

You sighed, pulling off your shirt. You frowned ,as always, when you saw the bruises still scattered across your body. Jason could definitely kick that was for sure. It just annoyed you even more with the fact that human bodies took forever to heal. And even then some marks stayed behind. Maybe not with these bruises but definitely with all the scars across your skin. You were sure to cover them all up in front of Missy though. She didn't need to know about any of that.

You sighed, quickly changing into the softer night clothes. You looked in the mirror in the bathroom, taking out the bobby pins, letting your hair flop down. You reached in the cupboard and found some toothbrushes and some toothpaste. You smiled. At least hygiene was still important in the future. You quickly brushed your teeth and unlocked the door, stepping out with your clothes.

You noticed that Missy was changed into some random shirt and some leggings and her hair was flowing freely. She looked breathtaking.

"You just going to stand there gawking?" She asked, rolling her eyes as she folded her own clothes up.

You felt the heat in your cheeks as cleared your throat a little, walking over to the beds. You looked over to her again and narrowed your eyes.

"Did you just change now? Like while I was in the loo?" You asked.

"Yep" she replied.

"Wha- you could have warned me! What if I just walked out while you were changing?!" You said.

She just shrugged her shoulders, acting way too calm about that. How was she just brushing everything off so quickly? God this woman.

You folded your own clothes up and put them in the wardrobe, ready to wear tomorrow. There was no way you were going to wear any of those disgusting clothes in there. You walked back to the bunk bed and you swallowed a little as you prepared to ask Missy a question that didn't go quite to plan last time.

"Missy. Erm..seriously though, which bunk do you want?" You asked, trying to act casual.

"I told you. Top. Always top." Missy smirked.

Your cheeks heated up and you walked under and sat on the lower bunk.

"I didn't mean it like that. When I asked before..it just..erm..sorry..." you stuttered, face palming gently.

"Don't be. It was quite amusing" she said.

She laughed a little, turning to you. Her hair was gorgeous. It was long and wavy and just amazing. Like everything else about her. And her choice of leggings just showed all her curves which was very hard not to look at.

"Lights out?" She asked you.

You shrugged, giving a little nod. She nodded in return heading towards the light switch. You got under the blankets, resting your head on the pillow as you watched her figure. She started to dim the lights with the light nob and left it just a little bit on, so you weren't lying in pitch darkness.

She made her way back to the bunk bed and climbed up to her own bed. You smiled, closing your eyes as you tried to fall asleep.

-

You could NOT get to sleep. It was like your body was refusing to drift off. And the room was fucking freezing! Like, how the hell did you not notice how cold it got. You were so awake and you didn't even know how long it had been since Missy dimmed the lights. But she hadn't made a single noise yet so you didn't know if she was awake or not. But then again you hadn't made a noise either and you were still awake. And she was a time lady who rarely sleeps anyways.

"Missy?" You whispered, hoping she heard you and was awake.

"You still awake?" She said in a surprised tone.

"I can't sleep" you said, waiting for an answer.

You were a little surprised when you saw her climbing down from the top bunk. You were a little confused at first but just decided to roll with it.

"Move over" she whispered.

You did so, giving her enough room to lay next to you. You felt your heart quicken a little as she lay down next to you.

"What's keeping you awake?" She asked, staring up at the bed above you.

"I dunno? I'm just not very tired" you replied, shrugging your shoulders "and it's a little cold"

"Come here" she whispered, holding out her arm.

You blushed a little but didn't complain as you snuggled closer, lying next to her as you rested your head in her shoulder. She wrapped her arm around your back as you wrapped yours around her torso. She was really warm and comforting.

"You're really warm" you said, snuggling closer.

"Two hearts love" she chuckled.

You hummed in response. You smiled, and closed your eyes, trying to fall asleep. But it was even harder now that you were so close to Missy.

"I still can't get to sleep though" you whispered.

"Neither can I" She said "how about you tell me about yourself?" She suggested.

"Like get to know each other?" You asked.

She hummed in response and you nodded. Turned out getting to know her might not have had to be so awkward after all.
