•Lilian's POV•

"Good morning sweetheart," Chase's morning voice mumbles into my neck.

I've been awake for a while just laying here.

Chase is like a heated blanket.

"Good morning," I smile down at him running my hand through his messy bedhead.

"Wanna get up now?" I suggest hoping he says yes I'm hungry.

"No," he says holding me tighter.

"What if I make waffles?" I bribe.

"Go back to sleep," he mumbles into my skin, sinking further into me.

I lay there for probably about twenty more minutes, twirling his hair around my finger. I sigh holding it for a few seconds before letting out a long breath.

Carefully I pry Chase's arms loose and jump out of his grasp, he groans sitting up and staring at me. Half his hair is in a wild mess sticking every which way.

Giggling at the sight I walk to his closet and grab a new t-shirt, it's slightly oversized on him so it's massive on me.

I still have school today and I really can't afford to miss any classes. So I'll need to stop by my house to change.

Chase is still in bed when I walk out of the closet. Going into the bathroom I very quickly brush my teeth and face before leaving again.

Leaning over the bed I place a small kiss on his exposed upper back. "I'm going to go make some breakfast," I whisper, He hums but makes no effort to get up.

Walking down the stairs I hear the shower start running meaning he got up. The house is still empty and everything is like it was left last night.

After doing a quick tidy, I make two bowls of cereal only putting milk in one for me, and the other for Chase when he comes down.

Grabbing a spoon I sit down at the island stools, large hand grabs my waist causing me to squeal.

Turning just my head I see Chase behind me with a big smirk on his face, "You scared me," I put a hand on my heart feelings it's quick beat.

He just chuckles spinning my seat around so I'm facing him, "Hi," I smile at him.

"Hi to you too," he says bringing two fingers up under my chin and lifting it slightly giving him better access to my lips, his lips softly touch mine with a soft innocent kiss.

Grabbing the milk out of the fridge and making his bowl he sits down beside me.

"We're gonna have to stop at my house so I can change," I say stirring my Cheerios around.

He looks over to me scanning my outfit, "Why? This is perfect," he emphasized playing with the fabric of the t-shirt.

I laugh looking down at myself, "I can't wear this to school," I reason in a 'duh' tone.

"School?" He raises an eyebrow.

"Yes, school the place I go five days a week, remember it?" Chuckling I take another spoon of cereal.

"You could...not go to school?" He suggests sounding hopeful.

"It's my last day before graduation, I have to," I state.
