Brittany's POV
The sound of the door closing echoed around the room and I looked up to see her walking over to me immediately getting on the bed.
"Did she fall asleep?" I asked referring to Aria knowing they had planned on rewatching Princess and the Frog for the hundredth time tonight.
"Halfway through," she replied cuddling into me and I looked down meeting her tired gaze, the way my body relaxed the moment she touched me letting me know I wouldn't be finishing my reports tonight.
"You look really tired," I pointed out closing my laptop putting it on the nightstand, my body yearning to be engulfed in her warmth.
"I am," she mumbled as I laid flat facing her.
