Beverly's pov




-

I awoke to the steady patters of rain upon my window, droplets yet to scatter the nascent rays of rising sun. The sound brought a calmness to mind, a soothing melody, a natural lullaby. With eyes at rest I felt my centre, lived happily within myself for these blessed moments of solitude.

"School" I groaned

"Yes, school. Get your ass up" Aqua giggled

"Nooo, I don't wanna" I mumbled, my arm around her stomach held her tighter

"Come on, you'll be late" she laughed, the vibrations of her laughter rested on my skin

"Come on, get up. I have something I need to do today" She said

"No"

"Beverly" she warned

"No"

"Gosh you're so adorable" she laughed

"Stay with me, let's not go anywhere. Just, stay in this moment a little longer" I whispered against her skin

Soon I returned to the moment, the song of the rain became as fusion, birds bringing sweet high notes. In my mind's eye I am with them, singing upon the roof tops, filling my lungs with fresh air, watching the world come into focus.

"Are you worried about today" She asked, her fingertips graze against my back causing goosebumps to crawl along my skin

"Mm?" I hummed, feeling to sensation spread through my body

I closed my eyes and allowed my head to sink even further into her chest, her fingertips rolled higher as they dragged along the nape of my neck. My breathing became heavy as the toe curling and electric sensation moved through me.

"Cheerleading" she said

"I am" I muttered

"You don't seem so" she said, a smile etched across my lips and I brought my face up to face hers

"Because when I'm with you, nothing else seems to matter. It's cheesy, I know. But it's the truth" I chuckled

"You're making it really hard not to fall for you" she whispered

"Would that be a bad thing?" I asked

"To fall in love with you?"

"Yes" I answered

"God no" she laughed

"If it helps, I'm falling pretty fast for you too" I said, a wide grin stretched across her face

"Really?" she asked in the cutest voice causing me to giggle

"Really"

"I guess we're a bunch of dumb wattpad stereotypes" she said laughing

"Hey! No we're not. Most characters fall in love till the 20 chapter" I answered

"Thank God we're not them huh?" she asked

"Nope"

"Your time is up Bev, get up and shower" she smiled

Ah yes, school. The slow burn mornings where teenagers walk around like zombies craving anything for a adrenaline. Then the heat filled afternoons where everyone smells like sweat and depression.

"Ugh I hate you" I groaned and propped myself up on the bed

"But... But you said you were gonna fall in love with me soon" she pouted
