❝Your heartbeat is like a lullaby❞ he mumbled
𝘚𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵'𝘴 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘣𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘵
I grabbed the duvet that was tossed at the side of the bed and I put it on top of both of us
❝Is it really like a lullaby?❞
He nodded ❝A slow lullaby...
Since it was hard to look away I immediately closed the laptop and put it on the nightstand, my feet touched the cold floor so I can reach my bag and pull out the scarf my parents gifted to me and the book that Cloud brought back from Spain
I went back to bed and wrapped the scarf around me while I hugged the book close to my chest then I covered myself with the duvet
My body moved a little so I can face the window The stars look pretty tonight although there is no moon, no matter how many stars there are in the sky it always feel incomplete without the moon
The most comfortable position to sleep in that night was the fetal position, it made me warm and gave me a little comfort to help me sleep
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oddly enough I woke up this morning without my need for the alarm clock, I feel fully refreshed and have a lot of energy I must have gone to sleep early
I noticed I was still hugging the book and the scarf was around my neck since I woke up too early and I don't think I can sleep anymore, I was the one who prepared breakfast
Olivia and Ted woke up after I finished frying the eggs, they appreciate the little gesture of thanks I made for them as they happily ate the food. Daisy was the last one to wake up and was especially surprised when she found me in the kitchen wearing an apron
"Holy crap you woke up early!?" She said to me out of shock which made me giggle I used to hate waking up early and always depended on either my sisters or my phone alarm to wake me up
I should do this more often it feels great to wake up early knowing that you sleep early, the morning air from the seaside entered from the window and I have never felt more happier than feeling the wind hit my face
When me and Daisy finished wearing our uniforms, I was surprised to find out that Aiden was waiting for me outside of Daisy's home "Morning Pip, you too Daisy"
"Morning Aiden" Daisy waved at him and I gave him a smile
We went to Mira and Max's home so we all can walk together to school, I knocked at their front door, and the person who answered it was their Mom
She lets us in and told us to wait for the siblings to finish, while we wait in the living room we heard glass breaking and heard someone yell "MY GREEN TEA!" It was a female voice so I know it was Mira
"Mira that's Peppermint tea" we heard Max corrected her
We all looked at each other and our business lead us to the kitchen to see Mira break her teacup and there was a lot of tea spills on the floor, she glared at her brother "I hate you"
Max rolled his eyes "You weren't even planned so I hate you more"
"Ok this is getting personal I think we all should wait for them outside" I pushed Aiden and Daisy out of the home to give them privacy
Aiden cleared his throat and Daisy was playing with the tips of her hair "Well that got awkward" Aiden tried to ease up the weird mood that we three are feeling right now
Daisy nodded at him "You both will get used to it, siblings fights are common"
We heard something fall and we turned to see workers starting to set up the stage and one of them happens to accidentally let go of a hammer that fell on the ground, the locals started decorating the streets with lights "Woah" I have never seen so many people being so busy for a huge event like a concert and festival at the same time
I pointed to all the workers building up the stage then I looked at Aiden "Are they all the workers your company hired?"
"They're all the people Ruth hired to set up the stage" Aiden went to grab my hand and pulled me to walk with him to get closer to the stage with Daisy walking beside us
Daisy's eyes started to sparkle "I'm excited! Don't you?" She asked me with enthusiasm
"Of course, I am it's Aiden's first concert"
From afar I think I saw Ruth who was busy ordering people what to do for the stage design, Daisy followed my line of sight so she saw Ruth too
There is one more thing that I have noticed, there were more people at the beach than yesterday. A lot of tourists has arrived and the majority of them were here for Aiden's concert I suddenly felt the chill at the back of my spine again
I should be careful
