Two days later Darcy was lying on the couch with me, she was lying on top of me and we were dozing in the light of the early evening. The front door opening pulled me from my sleepy state and I moved my head to see my mom coming in through the front door with a few boxes of doughnuts it looked like.

“Hey mom” I said quietly.

“Hey Zacky, and Darcy”

“I think she’s asleep” I said

“Oh leave her be she looks adorable” She said I smiled down at my girlfriend and lay back down. She hummed in her sleep and her fingers curled around the fabric of my
shirt.

“Yeah she is beautiful” I smiled down and kissed her forehead. I moved my hand a little and she whined. I chuckled and ran my fingers across the skin of her arm. I could feel the little goose bumps going up along her arm.

“Zacky” She mumbled “Zacky that tickles”

“Oh it tickles does it?”

“Yeah” She shifted onto her stomach so her chin was resting on my chest.

“So I shouldn’t do it?”

“No please don’t”

“But I like it, how you feel”

“Mmm well it tickles and I’m tired”

“Do you wanna go upstairs?”

“No because I know you won’t wanna sleep if we go upstairs and I am in mood to do anything like that right now”

“It’s okay I’m good here too”

“Good” She snuggled into my chest a little more. I lay with her until her breathing evened out and she relaxed completely. Her hair smelled like strawberry and it was kind of intoxicating. But it helped me to drift off into sleep again with my girlfriend curled up next to me.

X-X-X

I woke up and rubbed my eyes, I saw the clock saying that it was half past nine in the morning. How had we slept all night on the sofa like this? And how had I not woken up at all throughout the night, and I could only put it down to the fact that Darcy’s presence just relaxed me completely and I couldn’t really do anything to control it. The problem was I was already wrapped so tightly around her little finger it was probably cutting off the circulation.

I looked around and saw that not only was Darcy still curled up next to me, but someone had thrown a blanket over us and put a pillow underneath my head. I groaned when I stretched my legs and the bones cracked loudly.

I moved out from under the blanket and left Darcy sleeping on the couch and wandered into the kitchen to see Brian and Jimmy sitting at the table eating cooked breakfasts that my Mom was making.

“Morning sweetie” She smiled up at me. “Sleep well?”

“Of course he did” Brian snickered. I shot him a glare.

“Will Darcy want anything do you think?”

“Uhh well I would ask her but I don’t particularly wanna wake her up because I know from experience that waking women up isn’t at all fun from a male’s
perspective”

“Okay i will wake her up” Mom said

“Pussy” Jimmy coughed.

“James Owen Sullivan do not make me call your mother” My mom said to Jimmy. It was my turn to smirk.

“Sorry Mrs B” He mumbled around his fork. My Mom handed me a plate and I sat down at the table with my friends. She then disappeared into the living room and a moment later reappeared with my sleepy looking girlfriend trailing behind her. She walked past me and I grabbed her waist, pulling her down onto my lap. She squeaked and turned around to face me.

“Morning gorgeous” I said, she blushed scarlet and I kissed her cheek before she
picked up some toast off my plate and started eating it.

“Zack you are so whipped” Brian said

“What? I am not”

“You never share food with anyone”

“Well I’m not exactly gonna deny my girlfriend food” I loved the way that sounded ‘my girlfriend’.

“Yeah I bet he’s not” Jimmy snickered.

“James!” My mom chastised. I snorted and hid my face in Darcy’s shoulder. “Here you are dear” Mom said handing Darcy her breakfast too, she sat down in the chair next to me and the four of us ate in a companionable silence. When we were done we went back into the living room and Darcy curled up in my lap and we sat around watching cartoons for a while before it dawned on me.

“Why are you two even here?” I asked.

“Because we wanted to see if you fucked her yet and then Jimmy was disappointed to see that you were curled up on the sofa being sickeningly adorable and asleep on the sofa, and then your Mom offered to make us breakfast and it was free food so why were we going to say no to free food? Especially the way your mom cooks”

“It’s true” Jimmy said from his upside down position on the couch.

“Well sorry to disappoint” Darcy said grinning at them from where her head rested on my shoulder.

“Unless you two wanna go upstairs and go at it now and then we could watch…”

“James Owen Sullivan! I will not have you use that kind of language in my house! Now apologise to Darcy and leave!” I bit my lip, it was always hilarious when Mom had a go at one of my friends, she treated them like extra sons, Jimmy was only genuinely afraid of two people in his life and that was his mom and my mom.

“Sorry Darcy” He mumbled, much like a child he rolled off the couch and landed on his ass, before making his way to the front door.

“I should probably go with him, make sure he’s not too heartbroken” Brian said. I nodded and he left.

“We are alone now” Darcy said.

“Not quite, Mom’s in the kitchen”

“Well it doesn’t mean I can’t make out with you” She said leaning closer, her hands sliding to my neck. I got lost in her eyes and before I knew it her lips were on mine and I was lost in her all over again.
