[[ Moonlight ]]

The next morning I was awakened by someone's banging on the bedroom door. I closed my eyes expecting the banging to stop, but it continued. I gently moved Brian's arm off my stomach and slipped out of bed and sleepily walked towards the door. Whoever it was I knew I had to do some serious strangling to do to them. I fumbled with the door lock and creaked the door open. Sunlight flooded in from the hallway, I rubbed my eyes to find Nick standing in the doorway.

"Urgh Nick" I whined. He gently pushed past me and walked into the room.

"Sure come in, whatever" I grumbled. Brian sleepily opened his eyes to find Nick hovering over him.

"Nick? What da ya want?" he groaned.

"Um... hate to break it to you but vacations over in an hours time" he answered. It took a few minutes before the information processed itself into Brian's mind.

"What!?" Brian exclaimed. Nick shrugged.

"Hurry up and pack we gotta get outy" he said and ran out of the room. I watched Nick leave and looked at Brian. He yawned and began rubbing his eyes. I made my way back to the bed and sat on him straddling myself on his body.

"Urgh, he's sure happy in the morning" I muttered. Brian pulled me towards him and brushed his lips against mine. I pulled away and hopped off him, he smiled and shut his eyes.

"Brian" I whined, pulling the sheets off him.

"Like Nick said we gotta hurry up and pack and get outy" I reminded him.

He slipped his legs off the bed one by one and grudgingly pulled the rest of his body off the bed and walked towards the bathroom, turning on the water in the shower. I sighed and walked towards the wardrobe grabbing our suitcases and packing everything. By the time I had finished 10 minutes had gone and I still hadn't made the bed. I walked over to the bedside table and turned on the stereo loud. "If anything could fully wake me up in the morning nothing could beat music" I thought to myself as the sound of Because of You entered the room. 'You're my sunshine after the rain, you're the cure against my fear and my pain, cause I'm losing my mind when your not around. It's all, it's all, it's all because of you'. I found myself singing along as I straightened up the sheets and fluffed up the pillows. 'Baby I really know by now since we met that day you showed me the way. I felt it then you gave me love. I can't describe how I feel for you..." I heard the sound of the bathroom door shut. I spun around to find Brian walking towards me in a towel dripping wet. 'I said baby I should've known by now should've been right there when you gave your love and if only you were here I'll tell you, yes I'll tell you' he sang grinning.

"I'm awake" he boomed.

"Oh. I thought you must've fallen asleep in the shower" I answered.

He wrinkled his nose up and his grin grew wider as he wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed my forehead, then my nose. Soon he began leaving trails of kisses all over my neck. I soon felt my singlet cling to my body and was wet from the water on Brian's body. I kissed his shoulder and pulled away. He still had a grin on his face.

"What's the smile for" I asked suspiciously. 'You're my sunshine after the rain, you're the cure against my fear and my pain, cause I'm losing my mind when your not around. It's all, it's all, it's all because of you' he sang with a smile and his arms still around my waist. I kissed his nose and pressed my forehead against his.

"I love ya, now go and get dressed before I change my mind" I said grinning, then playfully slapped his stomach. He pouted and walked to our luggage and pulled out a pair of shorts and a basketball singlet. I looked down and realized my bra could clearly be seen through the wet singlet. I smiled and pulled the singlet off. I walked over to him and let my hand gently run over his back and onto his chest as I began searching for something to wear. I slipped my hand away and grabbed a white spaghetti strap top and cream cargo shorts and tossed them onto the bed. I then ran into the bathroom to brush my teeth and clean up. Once I was done I ran back into the bedroom to get changed. Brian was lying on the bed watching me as I threw on my clothes.
