Marianna's POV
I wake up to the sound of my phone buzzing on the bedside table next to me. Stretching my arm out, I try and grab my phone but it's just that little bit too far. Looking over at Charlie, I see him sleeping peacefully, laying on his stomach with one arm across my waist and the other under his pillow. God, he looks good. His hair is a mess but it still looks perfect, I feel so tempted to run my hands through it. Shaking my head, I wriggle slightly closer to the edge of the bed trying not to wake him.
I grab my phone to see what all the buzzing was about. I had 15 messages from Madi. that's a bit desperate.
you're not in your bed
Did you sleep at Charlie's ?!?!
Why aren't you answering?
Mari
Hello
HELLO
MARI
MARIANNA
WAKE UP
DID YOU SLEEP AT CHARLIE'S LAST NIGHT
SINCE WHEN DO YOU SLEEPOVER AT CHARLIE'S?
And so on. I text her back explaining that I slept over at Charlie's because I couldn't sleep. Checking the time, I decide there is no point going back to sleep because Charlie's alarm is going to go off soon. Looking over at Charlie I watching him to make sure he doesn't wake up as I gently grab his arm and lift it just enough for me to slide out from underneath it. Standing up from his bed I give him one last glance before climbing out the window and back through mine.
After showering and getting ready for school, I make my way downstairs to eat breakfast with my family. Walking into the kitchen I greet my family who is sitting at the table already eating.
"Morning sweetheart, how did you sleep?" Maggie asks giving me a polite smile.
"Yeah Mari, how did you sleep?" Megan repeated giving me a mischievous look.
"I slept fine, thanks for asking," I answer giving Megan a weary look. I make myself a bowl of cereal and go and sit down with everyone.
"Where's Charlie?" Megan asks still having the same look on her face.
"At his house," I answer slowly, not knowing what she was up to. We all sit at the table eating silently, slowly one by one we all get up putting our dishes away and continue to get ready. Me being the last to get up and put my bowl away, I jump when I see Megan behind me looking at me funny, cause i thought I was alone.
"So where were you last night?" she questions, with a knowing look on her face.
"At Charlie's house," I say matter of factly. I walk past and make my way up to the bathroom to brush my teeth. Megan following behind.
"What's going on between you and Charlie?" she interrogates me. I start brushing my teeth and give her a weird look in the mirror.
"What are you talking about?" I say with a mouth full of toothpaste. I finish up brushing my teeth and just continue looking at her.
"C'mon Mari, It's obvious that you two like each other. You guys can't even go a full night without seeing each other, where ever you are, Charlie is, and vise versa. You two are inseparable. Admit it." Megan spills to me.
"Admit what?" I question, my eyebrows furrowed in confusion.
"That you like him!" She exclaims loudly, throwing her arms in the air. I start blushing profusely.
