Something tickled at the corner of Kaden's awareness. For a moment she considered allowing herself to wake up and investigate but the soft texture of the pillow won out and she rolled over, draping her arm around her sleeping partner and drifting back to sleep. That lasted for a few moments...
"FIRST DAY OF SUMMER!!!! WOOHOOO!!!!!"
*WHOMP*
The something that had been tickling at a corner landed sprawled out on the futon, pieces of it stretching to poke both Kaden and Rini's bodies out of somnalescence. Kaden rubbed at her eyes and grumbled something unintelligible as she gazed on Jaime's satisfied face, blonde curls bouncing down his neck.
"What the fuck are you doing?" Rini growled as she slammed a pillow against Jaime's chest.
"I'm waking you up! It's the first day of summer! We're going to the cape! Beach time!"
"Wait, wha...?" At this point Kaden had gotten as far as being able to produce sound but her comprehension was sorely lacking. "Who is we, exactly?"
"Never mind who, exactly how are we doing this? For that matter, how did you get into the apartment?" Rini was less overtly hostile by this point but she would still need some convincing if she was to do anything other than lie in her bed for the next several hours.
"Justin's coming. he's got a car. He's already in the kitchen brewing the coffee."
"You've gotta be fucking kidding." At the thought of spending almost 2 hours crammed into Justin's tiny tercel hatchback, Kaden was becoming a little hostile herself!
"It's not so bad. Come on, you're gonna hang around here all day? No AC in the house, its gonna hit 90 by noon."
"We're not talking you out of this are we." It wasn't a question. Rini was up out of bed digging through Kaden's dresser "Where are the bathing suits?"
"I don't have any. I swim in gym shorts and a tank. We can go by your place on the way."
"Excellent, we'll leave in an hour!" and with that Jaime left the room, closing the door behind him.
"What the hell just happened?" Rini said to the back of the door.
"Don't ask me, he's your boyfriend."

I know, not terribly interesting or revealing but this scene came to me yesterday and I just thought it was so adorable.
