Hanna POV

The incessant noise of the alarm clock filled the room. I groaned loudly as I instinctively reached over for my nightstand to stop the blatant ringing. Unable to bring up my left arm, I noticed the weight against my chest. With my right hand, I rubbed the sleep from my eyes, opening them to reveal a pair of toned arms wrapped securely around my midsection. The girl's thick locks tickled my neck as the brunette's head laid softly on top of me.

"Awwww, could you get any cuter, Em." I whispered as I ran my fingers through her hair. She must've crossed over to my side of the bed in the middle of the night. As I wiggled my arm out from under her, Emily shifted closer, her grip tightening. I shifted my body upwards a little, Emily's head rising along with my chest. I reached my arm over her body, finally tapping the snooze button. I giggled at her cuteness and our rather close position. I'm sure Emily would get a kick out of it.

"Em," I whispered softly. "Emily, we have to get ready or we're gonna be late." She only stirred a bit and mumbled something incoherently. Okay, I'm gonna need a new tactic here if I wanna get to school. Then again, I could really use a day off. I laid my head back onto my pillow, playing with Emily's hair. And then I decided that Emily probably wouldn't want to skip school. I sighed deeply and swept her hair away from her ear and whispered into it. "Em, c'mon. We have to get up."

"Five more minutes, babe." She said. I quirked an eyebrow at this and smirked. Emily was definitely not the type of person to call me that. She was easily embarrassed which I found incredibly adorable. I bit my lip and couldn't help myself from saying, "So, I'm your babe now?"

Emily POV

My eyes snapped open and I slowly lifted my head off of Hanna's chest, still unaware of where I was or what I was doing. My hands were on each side of her body now. I rubbed my eyes with one hand as I kept my balance with the other, still hovering over Hanna. As I removed the hand from my tired eyes, they locked with Hanna's. I could feel the heat rising up to my cheeks and Hanna definitely noticed.

"Hey." I said weakly. I rubbed my eyes again trying to avoid eye contact as I brought my body away from hers. I sat on the bed next to her. Hanna put her hands behind her head, noticing my embarrassment from our previous position. She smirked. She loved it when I got myself into these situations. She was definitely gonna have fun with this.

Hanna POV

"Mornin' babe. Did you sleep well? I hope my chest was comfortable enough for you." I said cheekily. "Yeah it was, actually." She responded, failing to fight back a blush. She was just too cute. It was pretty fun to watch. Emily scratched the back of her neck. I watched as she got up stretching her arms out above her head, revealing a little of her toned stomach as her shirt rose up a bit.

I didn't want to get up, as expected, and buried my head in my pillow and pulled the blanket over me. Emily looked over at Hanna and smiled affectionately at the girl. "Han, we have to get ready for school." She said.

"I don't want to," I mumbled from beneath the covers.

"What was that?" She said with that innocent voice that I love. She pulled the covers away from her face as she sat on the edge of the bed.

"Emmmm." I whined. "Don't make me go to school." I said pouting.

"We have to, besides we have a test today."

"All the more reason not to go." I said as I got a hold of the covers. But before I could pull it over me, Emily gripped it tightly not letting me pull it over my face. "Em, let go," I cried.

"No way, Han, we gotta get up."

"Who needs school anyway?" I asked, both of us struggling to gain control. A couple seconds later, we were on our feet, tug-o-warring over the blanket. We argued and laughed as we continued our little game. Emily was definitely strong, so I decided to take another approach.

Emily POV

I saw Hanna smirk. I raised an eyebrow wondering what she was thinking. "Awwwww. C'mon Em." She whined as we still tried to get the blanket from the other. "Instead of going to school wouldn't you rather cuddle with me? You know you want to sleep with me." She said, her eyebrows wiggling suggestively, the comment having a double meaning.

I blushed and forgot about our little tug-of-war match. Hanna yanked the blanket hard, but I didn't let go still dazed with embarrassment. I ran right into her, both toppling over onto the ground. I landed right on top of her, blushing like crazy. I blushed even harder as I realized that my knee landed right on her center. Hanna's smirk was immediately wiped off her face, instead it turning a shade of pink and her eyes widened. I felt like a deer caught in headlights and didn't move a muscle. "Wow, Em, didn't know you wanted me this bad. I guess cuddling wasn't enough, huh?" She said trying to hide her own embarrassment. Her face returned to its natural color as I tried to get up.

"I . . . sorry . . . uhhh didn't mean to . . .uhhh . . . you know -" I stuttered as I held out my hand, which Hanna gladly took. I quickly looked away from her and found myself staring at the ground. "It's okay, Em. It was my fault." Hanna started laughing it off, trying to ease the tension. I cracked a small smile at her sweet attempt to make me feel better.

Hanna POV

I bit my lower lip, feeling guilty of Emily's obvious discomfort. I didn't mean to make her feel uncomfortable. I just wanted to mess with her. "Soooooo, are you used to living here now?" I asked her, quick to change the subject. Emily has only been living with me for a few weeks.

Our morning definitely wasted a lot of time as we got ready. "Actually, I really like living here with you." I blushed happily at the statement and Emily was quick to blush and continued. I mean, I miss my old house. I miss my mom, too, but it's kind of nice to not be around her for a while, ya know? Maybe she'll finally come around to me . . . being me, when she comes back." She said with a small glint of hope in her eyes. I gave her a reassuring smile.

"She will." I said confidently. Emily finally looked me in the eyes as she straightened her back up after putting something in her backpack. "Thanks." She smiled. I could tell Emily was still upset about her mom's acceptance issue. How could your own mother do that to their kid? I wanted Emily to be happy and I'd do anything to get her mom to accept her and to make things easier for her. "So are you goin' to Noel's party tonight." I asked hopefully.

"Yep." She said. I beamed from ear-to-ear. It was about time Emily loosened up and had a drink or two. I couldn't wait.

I finished applying my make up and me and Emily raced down the stairs. Once we made it to the bottom we argued over who won until we both burst out laughing at our childlike behavior. We both walked into the kitchen and to say Emily was shocked was an understatement. A mixture of confusion and fake happiness spread across her face. "Mom?"
