document.write(” ” + Nick)?” you had been doing laundry when you realised that the house had become far too quiet – even if there were currently two of you in the apartment that he was sharing with Ashton.

You peaked around the door to the living room only to see your best friend completely zonked out on the couch. The poor love was so jet lagged. He looked so cute and you just didn’t have the heart to wake him up so that he could get dressed to go out to dinner with you like he had been promising for weeks. You looked at the clock realising that it was nearing 6pm and that he’d probably be getting hungry soon so you decided to order takeout instead. You watched him sleep for a minute or so before heading off to make your call and finish the laundry.

About half an hour later a knocking at the door startled you slightly. You opened the door to reveal the delivery guy. You paid him, shutting the door once you had received your change and going to the kitchen to grab two forks. You went back to the living room and set out the food and drinks on the coffee table in front of where was sleeping. You tried to wake him;

“?” you gently nudged him as you sat next to him.

He stirred a little; “Hmmm?”

“Food’s here, babe,” you took some lids off of a few of the containers. still had his eyes closed.

“; do you want some food?” you asked a bit louder. That seemed to do the trick.

He opened his eyes a little, squinting as he yawned; “What time is it?”

“About half six,” you replied as you put some food on your fork.

He blinked a few times, “Oh, shit. We’re supposed to be going out for dinner.”

“You’re far too tired to anything other than haul yourself to your bed so I ordered in.”

leaned on you, resting his head on your shoulder.

You leaned into him, “It’s OK, . We can go out any time.” You offered him the bite of food on your fork and he gladly accepted, too tired to function at this time. You fed him a few mouthfuls whilst he tried to wake himself up a bit.

You were both full by the time he was starting to fall asleep again. His eyes were rolling back as he struggled not to fall asleep, his head down and his arms crossed over his chest. You laid him down on the couch, placing a blanket over him.

He grabbed your hand as you turned to walk away; you had thought he was completely out for the count.; “Cuddle?”

You grinned even though he couldn’t see you as he scooted back a bit. You laid down with him and he wrapped his arms around you.

You kissed his forehead, “Night, .”

Two

document.write(” ” + Name)!” whined from the bed.

You were too busy working at your desk to hear him.

“”

Nothing.

“Baby?”

Still nothing.

HI sighed as he got up knowing you must’ve been in deep thought if you weren’t hearing him from less than 10 feet away. He placed his hands on your shoulders causing you to jump.

You shrieked, holding your hands to your chest, your heart racing; “! What the hell?”

He giggled as he kissed the side of your head, “Sorry, baby. I didn’t mean to scare you.”

You raised your hands up and linked them around his neck, “Did you need something, babe?”

“I just wanted you to come cuddle with me but you’re busy so I’ll just steal a kiss instead.”

You tilted your head, grinning as you lifted yourself upwards to kiss him;

“I promise I’ll come cuddle once I’ve fixed the coding on my blog.”

“OK,” gave you a final squeeze before returning to his spot on the bed where he had been watching TV.

Half an hour or so passed and he became restless again;

“Baby, come cuddle with me.”

“Just a few more minutes, babe,” you typed furiously on your keyboard. You desperately wanted to just chill out with him.

“Please!”

You didn’t have to look at him to know he was pouting;

“Two minutes!” You were almost done and were just going over the code one more time.

“But needs cuddles with his baby right now.”

You rolled your eyes as you clicked “save” and then “publish”. You put your laptop on “shutdown” mode, standing up to look at .

He didn’t turn to face you, opting to look out the window instead. You were right though; you could clearly see him pouting.

“,” you sang as you made your way over to him.

He remained looking out of the window as he pretended to be mad at you.

“Lucas.”

That got his attention. He hated being called that. His pout became more prominent, “Have you come to cuddle with your yet?”

You nodded, placing one knee on the bed as you prepared to kneel beside him.

“Yay!” He launched himself at you, pulling you into his arms and down onto the bed to lie with him.

You giggled, settling into his side and laying your head on his chest, “I love you, .”

He held you tighter and snuggled into your neck, “I love you too.”

(Wow. So much fluff.) Three

document.write(” ” + Dream) giggled down the phone as soon as he answered your call. It was nickname that had stuck back in high school when you had become best friends, “How are you?”

“I’m good, sweetheart. How are you?”

“Can’t complain although I do wish I could cuddle with my best friend but she’s far too important to come on tour with me,” he joked.

You sighed, “I’m sorry but they really needed me at work. You can have all of the cuddle you desire when I next see you though.”

“Promise?”

“Promise. So what are you up to?”

“I’m just walking around the L.A house. Everyone else is still asleep. What about you?”

“Oh, I’m just roaming around.”

“So when do I get to be graced with your presence ?”

“That depends…” you trailed off.

‘s brow furrowed, “Depends on what?”

“Depends on when you want to see me.”

He thought you were joking, “Is now good? I’ve got some time before we go into the studio…

“Now is good,” you played along.

“Yeah; just hop on a plane and I’ll see you in a day or so,” he laughed.

“Or you could just open the front door and see me right now?”

His eyes bugged out of his head, “Do not fuck with me right now, !” He ran to the balcony, leaning over the railing.

You looked up and waved, “Care to let me in?”

took off, running through the upstairs of the house and down the stairs. He threw his phone onto the sideboard and pulled open the front door.

“!” he ran at you, pulling you into his arms and twirling you around.

“Hi!” you giggled, wrapping your arms tightly around him, “Did you miss me, ?”

“So much! What are you doing here?” he pulled back and studied you at arms length, his hands firmly on your biceps.

“Oh, y’know. I was just in the neighbourhood so I thought I’d drop by.”

“I can’t believe you’re here!” he took you by the hand, the handle of your suitcase in the other, “Come in, come in, come in.” He led you into the house.

“Nice digs! Do I get the grand tour?”

“Maybe later but for now…” He dropped the handle of your case and dragged you over to the couch, pulling you onto his lap, “Cuddles!”

Four

document.write(” ” + Dream) was busy playing the PS4 and you were thoroughly bored. You were lying with your head on his lap having long given up on being his player two in whatever game he was playing.

You prodded his arm as you looked up at him, “?”

“Hmm?” He didn’t remove his gaze from the screen.

“Why do you have to be so beautiful?”

His eyes flickered and he became bashful, “Pfft! I’m not!”

“You are.”

“I’m really not.”

“You really are.”

He could hear the honesty in your words, making him believe that you knew it was true, even if he didn’t think so himself.

He leant down to kiss you; “You’re beautiful.”

You “booped” his nose with your index finger, “Seriously though; why do you have to be so beautiful? It hurts my heart.”

He chuckled as he set down the controller on the arm of the chair, “you should get that checked out.”

You stuck your tongue out at him, giggling as you retracted it; “Don’t worry; it’s a good thing. It just means that my heart truly belongs to you and that you’re the only one who has it.”

scrunched up his nose and covered his face with his hands, sliding his sleeves over them. He always did that when he was embarrassed; “That was so cheesy.”

“You love it,” you tried to pull his hands away , “Did I make you blush?”

“No…” he laughed as he held his hands firmly in place. You could just make out the red tinge spreading across his cheeks.

“I did! Aww, !”

He swatted your hands away although amused at your display of affection.

“You’re such a dork, !”

You pouted cutely at him, “But you love me so…”

He jokingly rolled his eyes, “I suppose I do.”

You stuck your tongue out at him again, sitting up and leaning into him, “Cuddle with me?”

“I guess I can take some time out of my busy gaming schedule to cuddle with my beloved.” He settled into the couch, pulling you into his embrace.

“I love you .”

He kissed the top of your head, “I love you too, munchkin.”
