"Mhmm!" Lucas brought the pizza over after a few minutes and kissed Melissa's cheek gently.
"Mhmm!" Lucas brought the pizza over after a few minutes and kissed Melissa's cheek gently.
Melissa took the plate from him, smiling weakly. “Thanks, Lu…” She mumbled, sitting up on the couch.
"No problem, darling." Lucas took a bite of his pizza and hummed softly to himself.
Melissa quietly ate, looking up at him occasionally. She looked over to him, smiling weakly.
"I love you, Mel…" Lucas murmured. "How are you feeling?" He asked.
Melissa shrugged, eating still. “Love you too… guess I’m alright.”
"Maybe we can head back to bed after we finish eating. How does that sound?"
Melissa shrugged once again, letting her plate sit in her lap. “Don’t you have to do more homework?”
"At some point, but not necessarily like, right now…" Lucas sighed softly.
Melissa nodded, eating slowly. After clearing her plate she got up and offered to take his plate. "Thanks for dinner."
"No problem, Mel. You helped, anyway." Lucas kissed Melissa gently and allowed her to take his plate.
"Right." Melissa shrugged, walking off into the kitchen. Clearing the plates off, she set them in the dishwasher, before coming back.
"I love you…" Lucas murmured, pulling Melissa into his arms when she returned.
Melissa curled up in his arms, head on his shoulder. "Love you, too…" She mumbled, nuzzling against his cheek.
"What time is it? Do you wanna go ahead and sleep?" He asked.
Melissa shrugged, looking up at him. "I dunno… m'fine staying up if you're not ready to sleep."
"I'm fine either way… I've been pretty tired all day." Lucas shrugged a bit.
“Mm… you pick. I don’t really care.” Melissa mumbled, snuggling even closer. “I’ve got work tomorrow, but that’s not until the evening.”
"Yeah… my first day back to work will probably be soon as well…" He sighed softly.
“Mm… you never emailed the coach about getting your job back. I know we went to the florist, though.” Melissa mumbled.
"Oh, right… school was closed. I'll go ahead and do that…" Lucas pulled out his phone so he could email the coach.
Melissa nodded, snuggling up even closer. “Tell me if you need me to move.”
"Mm… we should be good like this for now, Mel." Lucas kissed Melissa softly and rested his head against hers.
"M'kay…" Melissa mumbled, yawning a little. She held onto him loosely, kissing his cheek.
Lucas closed his eyes and eventually drifted off to sleep with Melissa, seeming comfortable enough for the moment.
Melissa took a while to drift off, but was perfectly happy in his arms. As the night turned to morning, Mr. Brennahan came down the stairs, coming to a stop when he saw the two on the couch. He chuckled softly, coming over and petting Melissa to wake her up. "Hey, sunshine…" He whispered, playing with Melissa's hair. Slowly she woke up, looking up at him. "Mm… hmm?" She mumbled, still curled up in Lucas's arms. "It's getting late. You both should be getting up." He stated gently, before walking off to go make coffee.
Lucas was still fast asleep when Mr. Brennahan woke Melissa up, whining and curling up tighter at the soft sounds. He yawned a bit, holding Melissa closer as he stirred.
Melissa groaned a little, burying her face in his chest. She held on tighter to him, wanting to go back asleep. But she had a feeling she really shouldn't. Gradually she woke up even more, and couldn't fall back asleep. Huffing, she nuzzled against him in attempt to wake him up. "Lu…"
"Mmmmm…" Lucas stirred again and looked down at Melissa sleepily. "What…? D'you need something, Mel…?" He asked weakly. "What time is it?" He asked.
"Dunno… dad said we needed to get up, though… dunno why." Melissa mumbled, still nuzzling up against him. "Didn't wanna argue though. Mm… I also have work tonight. Less time to spend together if we sleep in."
