Whether it was the excitement of finally getting to sleep together again after two weeks of nothing but nightmares and sleeplessness, Emily had no idea. But what she did know for certain was that on Tuesday morning.
After going to sleep in Derek's arms, the previous night. The two of them woke up an hour early, a whole sixty minutes before their respective alarm clocks were supposed to wake them. For once, Emily was not upset to be losing out on an extra hour of sleep. Looking over at Derek, she realized that he too did not seem too bothered by it.
"What do you say? Should we start the day early, go and get ready and then enjoy a bit of quality time together before you have to head over to your apartment?" Derek asked and Emily found herself smiling. A big smile that made her cheeks hurt.
"You know what? That might be the best proposition that anyone has ever given me on a Tuesday morning," She told him, giving him a sly wink as she threw off her bed covers.
