Student, Teacher Conference

Mel's POV

I felt something round my hip move. It was an arm and it was touching my skin. I felt a bubble of panic as I opened my eyes. When I sat still, taking in the open built in wardrobe in front of me and remembered where I had seen the stack of DVD's before I relaxed and let out the breath I was holding. I couldn't help but smile at the softness of the pillow I was resting on but had to stretch. As I stretched I became awake my pajama top had ridden up and Alex's arm was draped across me. I blushed a little and lifted the covers to look and saw it was lazily slung there, but when I tried to move he would move so it was always around me. I held back a giggle at how cute he was! It was quite light in the room despite the curtains being pulled over and I could see quite well. I decided to turn around and look at him but as I did I could see the word 'teacher' flash across my mind in bright neon blue lights. I felt the nerves come back and my face go red hot. I took a breath and waited till I had calmed down to finish turning from my left side to my right. I was lying on my back when I felt Alex move and heard him groan. I bit my lip; did I wake him?

Alex's tussled bed hair was the first thing that came into view before his gorgeous green eyes met mine and made me gasp a little. They were so bright and alert for being just awake. Alex smiled down at me.

"Morning Melissa!" He moved to go into a stretch but tried to hide it.

"Morning Sir"

I clamped my hands over my mouth and looked up at him totally embarrassed. Alex let out such a joyous laugh. I couldn't help but grin under my hand despite being self-conscious of the title 'Sir' and where we happened to be. Alex leaned down over me and planted a kiss on my lips that left them tingling and me wanting more.

"You're so cute"

I blushed more and shook my head. Alex moved so he wasn't leaning over me. I was very aware of him trying not to be too intimidating for me. I really appreciated it, but it made me want to hug him and I had the overwhelming feeling to be held by him. I realised we hadn't slept very close together despite his arm being wrapped around me and I became upset that I had missed out on the closeness. Alex sat up and I did too, he offered me his chest and I blushed as I moved into cuddle him. It felt so nice to lean on him and feel his arm around me.

"How did you sleep?" He asked after a few moments.

"I slept well thank you, how did you sleep?" I asked, my voice unusually quite.

"I slept fine thanks. It was nice to wake up next to you" He kissed my head.

"You too" I smiled back and leaned up to kiss his lips.

We kissed a few more times, I could feel a little burning passion to turn the kisses into something more but I pushed it back and went back to leaning on his shoulder. He held me tight then let me go.

"We should go get some breakfast"

As if on que my stomach growled and I pulled a face at him. Again he let out a lovely laugh that made me smile and give me goosebumps; I was happy to make him laugh like that. Alex grabbed his phone and glancing at it.

"It's half nine"

"We beat the alarm" I noted.

"Yeah" He said before a yawn took over.

"We have the whole day a head of us. Why don't we have brakfast in bed and just be lazy for a while?" I suggested.

Alex smiled at me and nodded in agreement with my idea before getting out of the bed. I looked at him as he done a few small stretches, I couldn't help but blush when I saw his stomach when his top lifted and I caught a glimpse of a half toned stomach. I looked down and got out of the bed and followed him through to the kitchen. The sun was shining brightly through the kitchen windows, I had to glare for a few minutes before my eyes adjusted. I leaned against a counter playing with my phone nervously as he opened the fridge with a yawn and looked inside.

"I have stuff for a fry-up, I have cereal, bread. I could maybe make pancakes..."

I gave a small laugh as he turned to look at me; he really was handsome, even with the bed hair.

"What?"

"Nothing" I stuck my tongue out.

He glared but grinned and shook his head.

"What would you like?"

In the end we decided on a fry-up. Alex cooked away, as we talked about what we normally would be doing on a Sunday morning and then that branched off into other weekend stories and different stories from there. I helped myself to the kitchen, getting plates and cutlery for the breakfast. Alex just laughing at me and how I made myself at home. I poured us some orange-juice and made tea. Finding a tray and carrying in the drinks and cutlery, placing one glass and cup each at either side of the bed for us as he carried in the plates. Once back under the covers, Alex handed me the plates, turning on the TV and grabbing the remote before he got comfy back under the covers. I handed him his plate and then cutlery before we went into a comfortable silence as we watched FRIENDS on Comedy Central. Alex had finished before I did which made me feel a little self-conscious once again but I ignored it and ate the lovely breakfast he had made me.

"Here, I'll take it through to the kitchen" He extended his hand.

"No it's fine, let me clean them" I insisted.

"No, no, you're the guest; I'll do it"

"But you cooked breakfast" I replied and got out of the bed, taking his plate with me.

"Melissa!" He whined playfully.

I laughed as he tried to grab for me. I put the plates on the tray and grabbed my empty cups, not chancing grabbing his. I jogged to the kitchen as I caught him throwing the covers off himself at the corner of my eye. I put the tray next to the sink and started to run the hot water, grabbing the sponge and Fairy Liquid. I grabbed the cutlery scrubbing them by the time he came in behind me, carrying his mug.

"Melissa please don't!" He whined.

"Alex I want to!" I whined back with a smile.

He came up behind me and tried to move me gently.

"No!" I cried in a funny voice and lurched from him.

He laughed and put his hands on my hips. I felt a jolt go through me.

"Please?" He asked in my ear.

It sent shivers down my spine but I shook them off.

"Nope!"

I started on the plates and he huffed.

"I'll get you back for that" He threatened.

I laughed.

"I'm being nice!"

"Yeah but you're not supposed to be this kind of nice when in my house, you're the guest!"

"But you made breakfast!"

He hugged me from behind and I smiled trying not to grin. His chin touched my collar bone and I could feel his breath on my neck.

"Thank you"

I gullped a little and gave a small giggle.

"My pleasure, thank you for breakfast; it was nice"

"My pleasure" He said.

He let me go. I had finished the dishes, my hands were wet and soapy. I felt a little brave and I could feel the urge to kiss him coming back. I knew he was holding off a little on me to make sure I he wasn't making me uncomfortable, so he was waiting for me to give him a sign. I hoped this would be good enough. I flicked the water in my hands at him and he gasped. I giggled and ran into the bedroom.

"I'm so gonna get you for that!" He called.
