Annabelle's POV:

I walked into the room to find Matt lying on the bed in just a pair of jogging bottoms and was flicking through channels on the TV. "Hey" he said sitting up and I watched at the muscles on his abdomen tensed and I felt my throat go dry. I smiled and said, "I'm probably going to have a shower too". He smiled and nodded as I grabbed some underwear, pyjamas and went into the bathroom. I locked the door and put the shower on - PING. My phone lit up from a message and it was from Tara:

Elijah is so sweet!! P.S try not to have sex with Matt! ;) x

I rolled my eyes and responded with a shut up and laughing face then locked my phone. I got in the shower and damn was it nice, the water was hot and relaxing and I felt like I could have stayed there all night. Finally I decided to get out, I dried off my body, got dressed, dried my hair and left the bathroom. Matt was still lying in the bed and was engulfed in a movie he was watching. I sat next to him and watched it was quite funny and in the end we just sat there watching the movie and laughing. After the movie he put on a new one that had a lot of killing in it and I wasn't so interested anymore, I yawned and tried to disguise it from Matt but he noticed. "You tired?" I nodded slightly and got in the blanket. The bed was so comfy I felt my eyes begin to droop straight away. "You can lie on my for warmth if you want" he said now completely focused on me rather than the movie. I was too tired to deny it because in all honesty he looked comfy and so I moved over next to him and I fell asleep quickly.

I woke up to arms being too tightly wrapped around me. I opened my eyes and realised me and Matt were spooning, I tried to move out of his grip gently but his grip only tightened. "Matt" I whispered and I saw one of his eyes open ever so slightly and I whispered, "your too tight". He groaned and released his grip a little bit but did not take his arms away and then (I'm not sure why but...) he kissed me on the forehead. I couldn't tell whether he did it because he was tired or that we were so close but I liked it, liked it more then I should have. I was so warm next to him that I could feel myself slowly going back to sleep and that was exactly what I did.

I woke up to bright light of the sun being thrown right into my eye. I turned to see Matt sitting on a chair outside. I walked outside and wrapped a thin blanket that was on the chair around me. Although I was wearing pyjamas it was a thin top and shorts and I didn't want to go outside almost naked. He was just still, staring at the sea. "Are you ok?" I asked him genuinely worried, he turned and smiled at me and nodded, "I'm fine, did you sleep well sleeping beauty". I blushed and playfully hit him on the shoulder. He turned and looked at the sea again, "the view from this balcony is amazing" I said. He pulled me from behind him and sat me on his knee as he responded with a cheeky grin, "I hope you're not talking about me". I had to admit the tired look suited him but he was still 170% cocky even when he had just woken up, I rolled my eyes. We heard a door slide from next to us and Elizabeth stepped out. "Morning Romeo and Juliet".

I was sure that everyone had heard us talking because as soon as she spoke, everyone else seemed to appear outside. I was still sitting on Matt as Tara said, "did you listen to me or rebel?" she began giggling as I blushed and shook my head violently. Everyone looked at us confusingly, "Let me go get a shirt on" Matt said speaking quietly. He had a gentle smile on his face and I decided to take advantage of this, "oh but you're so comfy" I said lying back on him. He rolled his eyes and placed his hands under my legs and picked me up like a child, "I'm sure I am but I'm sure you were comfier spooning me last night" after he said this he winked, put me down and walked back into the room. I stood with my mouth open as my face flushed a bright pink. Tara, Carter, Elijah and Gwen were outside and staring at me. I coughed a little, pleased that Danny wasn't outside and sat in the chair Matt had been in. "I'm going to get dressed" Gwen said turning and walking into her room.

Tara and Elijah began laughing and walked into their room together, I wonder what was going on with those two? Carter and I were left outside, "you ok" I asked him. He turned to me with a small smile and nodded. He ran his fingers through his hair and clenched his jaw, "sounds like you slept good". I looked at him and gave a faint laugh, "yeah as long as he didn't try to squeeze me to death" he laughed. "I better head and get dressed" I said realising the time and that I was hungry, he nodded and we both headed our separate way.
