It's late

"If you think it's too late to go back to the hotel, you can spend the night here if you want", Ben said.

"No, that's not necessary. We can walk back to the hotel", Rachel said and I nodded in response. "You sure? 'Cause I like being with you.", Ben said, but he only looked at me. "I have a really nice guestroom", he said, "With a queen-size bed." "But doesn't Gwilym sleep there?", Rachel asked. "Yes, I do. But I can sleep on the couch." "Ahww, that's really sweet", I said, "Okay, I think we can spend the night here then, don't you think Rachel?", I said. Rachel nodded enthusiastically. "IT'S SLEEPOVER TIME!", Gwilym yelled.

We decided to go to bed because it already was very late. Rachel and I got toothbrushes from Ben and we could borrow two shirts from Gwilym to sleep in. Rachel and I brushed our teeth and wished Ben and Gwilym goodnight before we headed to the guest bedroom.

"I'm dreaming right?", Rachel asked me. "If you are dreaming, then I am spacing 'cause wtf did just happen?", I told her. We chatted a bit about what happened on this crazy night in London before we fell asleep.

I woke up to the smell of bacon. I looked on the clock on the wall and realised it was already 1 p.m.! I was very hungry, so I decided to go downstairs. I tried to be as quiet as possible because Lola was still playing 'The sleeping beauty'. But it didn't go as I planned because I was still a little bit drunk. Lola didn't wake up, so mission succeeded. When I walked down the stairs, the smell of bacon became stronger and I also smelt egg. My mound started watering. I entered the kitchen and I saw an incredible handsome man standing by the stove. For a moment, I stood in the doorway, observe the man, until he noticed me. On his face a grin.

I turned around in bed, expecting to feel a person lying next to me. When I felt no one, I thought that a dreamed all of it. But when I opened my eyes, I was not in my bedroom but in Ben's guest bedroom. Slowly, all the memories came by. I smiled. When I tried to stand up to grab my phone from the nightstand, my head almost exploded. I remembered the amount of alcohol we drank. I quickly laid down and searched for a podcast. When I wake up, I always listen to a podcast. About 15 minutes later, I decided that it was time to go to the bathroom for a quick touch-up. With my airpods still in my ears and still listening to the podcast, I opened the bathroom door.
