You take my breath away - Teaser
A/N - Hey guys! here’s a teaser of something I’ve been working on not sure if i should continue with this, It hasn’t got any smut yet but will do if i continue on it. Please please please leave me a comment and let me know what you think! Apologies for any mistakes i haven’t edited this or read it over!
Love Jen :)
He was the most incredible looking man you had ever seen, Walking through the gates with that possum in his hand, He was definitely a little disheveled, Looked like he was in serious need of a shower but gorgeous nonetheless. Your mouth going dry the moment you saw him, Feeling the now unfamiliar fluttering in your stomach as he walked by you, Not sparing a second glance in your direction.
His eyes alert and suspiciously taking in his surroundings, You watched as he handed his crossbow over, Fingers twitching as it was moved further away from him. Aaron leading them to Deana’s house. Where they will no doubt be being interviewed on camera, Just like all the newcomers were. Just like you had been three months before, Looking over the others in the group seeing their wary eyes the exhaustion showing through the cracks in their demeanor.
Letting out the breath you weren’t aware you had been holding you watched them disappear around the corner. As you were turning to go back into the house you were stopped by Olivia. Rushing from the direction the strangers had gone, a huge basket full of linens in her arms.
“Hey Y/N Are you busy? Any chance you can give me a hand? Deana has asked me to set up the two houses down the street for the new guys” Looking at you with those hopeful puppy dog eyes, She knew there was no way you could say no to her.
“Fineeee, But Jessie’s helping too!” You groaned turning back towards her and down the front steps.
“Thank you Y/N! Jessie’s already there loading some supplies into the cupboards” Her pace was getting faster now, Half running to keep up with her frantic walk you let her continue.
“Could you please start on the beds, That would be a HUGE help. Here take this” Offloading the basket to you she turned back towards the garage that held all of the town’s supplies.
“I’m going to grab some more linen, I’ll be back in a few!”
Groaning again at the weight of the basket you walked up the steps of the house Olivia had specified. Spotting Jessie in the kitchen immediately.
She laughed at your sour expression “She roped you into this too?” You nodded in reply carrying the basket up the stairs and starting in the first room you came too.
Picking up the first bundle of sheets, Finding a little note attached ‘Single’ Pushing them to one side you picked up the next ‘Double’ Taking the note off and putting it back in the basket you made your way to the bed. Pulling the sheets on and making the bed easily you continued into the other three bedrooms upstairs, Finding one set of double sheets remaining.
Walking down the stairs you passed Jessie again in the Kitchen, Stopping for a moment you took a glass of water from her mumbling your thanks, “Just the basement left! Has she come back yet?”
“Mhmm She left that for you” pointing to a basket of towels. “And she said she’s left the next bunch of sheets and towels in the next house ready”
“And what pray tell is olivia doing while she’s got me sweating like a Whore in Church”
Jessie choked a little on her water trying to suppress her giggle at your words. “Beats me! Tried to ask her, She ran off looking very important” She giggled again.
“Best get on before she finds more jobs for me!” Jessie agreed to grab the towels and put them into each bathroom, Snagging two from her you took it down to the basement with you.
This place was lucky really, There had been a hotel nearby that was just about to open as all hell broke loose that had stacks of linens, Plates and silverware. Enough to fully stock this place for a long time.
It seemed silly to you at first for this to be a huge concern but the longer you stayed here and the more you got used to the little comforting things like the Clean bedding and actual utensils the more important it had started to feel. It made you feel normal, Civilised. Like the world hadn’t just thrown a tantrum. Sure it never lasted very long but the comfort you got from these little things was priceless.
Once you had finished the bed down stairs you and Jessie made your way over to the second house repeating the jobs, Smiling as you left. Hopefully the comfort the little things had on you would also reassure and comfort the new guys. If only just a little. Being out there for so long yourself you knew how hard it would be for them to adapt.
When Aaron had first brought you through the gates you thought you must have died. Everything was so….Normal, The houses all pristine. All happy smiling faces welcoming you to the neighbourhood. It had taken you a week to speak, Sometimes you still weren’t sure if it was real at all, Maybe this is where your consciousness goes when you were walking around as one of those dead but not dead freaks.
Walking back home you spotted Olivia, Saluting her “All done El capitan!” She laughed as you walked by purposely not slowing in case she thought of another job for you.
Sinking back into your couch and grabbing the book you had discarded earlier when the commotion at the gate started, You had been out hunting the day before, Which meant today you could take the next few days easy.
Reading the Hobbit for the millionth time, You easily slipped back into that familiar world, Only stopping when it got too dark to see the words on the page. The next day was much the same head straight back into your book escaping the real world as long as you could. Not realising how long you had been sat there, The sun was low on the horizon when you were pulled from your favourite book.
Opening the door you were greeted by a smiling Aaron. “Hey Y/N I can’t stay gotta get back to Eric, Deana is throwing a welcome party for the new guys, Since you’re our newest person besides them, She is pretty insistent you attend!”
Rolling your eyes “Insistent hm? I think I’ll give it a miss..But thanks for the invite!” Trying to shut the door hoping this conversation was over when the door was stopped on his foot.
“C’mon Y/N a little more socialising won’t kill you! You’ve managed to come out of your shell to me Jessie and now Olivia! A few more wouldn’t hurt right?”
The puppy dog eyes. How did every fucker in here know that was your weak spot.
“Ughhhhh Finee! Only if you’re going to be there?” He nodded happily turning and stopping on the steps “See you at 8 wear something pretty” He winked, Taking off before you could change your mind.
Pretty? You weren’t even sure you owned anything that could be classed as pretty. Storming upstairs like a toddler having a tantrum you stripped quickly showering the sweat from yourself before stepping out wrapping the fluffy towel around you.
Walking over to your closet you pulled at the pile of dresses you had haphazardly thrown to the bottom of the closet when you had moved in, Never thinking in this new world there would be a place for pretty dresses.
Separating the sizes you pulled the few that would fit you to one side throwing the rest back in a heap again. Holding them up to your chest you decided on a black figure hugging one with a slit up one side. You guessed this would be kind of functional too. The slit certainly gave you enough room to move if you needed to. Picking up a pair of almost matching wedges you threw them both on the bed. Turning your attention to your hair as you tried to tame it.
It was a shame this new world didn’t include bloody straighteners. Groaning at yourself you couldn’t believe that had just crossed your mind. There were more important things to worry about besides your hair!
Running the brush through it once more, It would do. Your mother certainly would be happy. She loved your naturally wavy curls. You felt the twang in your heart as you remembered her, She had lasted 6 months after the fall before one wrong step sent her into the arms of a walker taking her from you. Rubbing your eyes gently. No you wouldn’t cry, If she was here now she’d be giving you an earful about it, Demanding you enjoy your night and your freedom.
Looking over at the tiny clock on the side 8:15 shit you were late. Pulling the dress over your head and heels on your feet you spared your reflection one last look smoothing the dress down on your stomach nervously. You can do this. It’s only people right?
Slowly descending the stairs and making your way out the door, Your feet dragging as you headed closer to the party. Stopping outside the door, Hearing the laughter from the other side.
Before you knew what you were doing you were spinning back around back up the street when a light fell over you.
“Sneaking away before they can see you huh Y/N?” Giving him a guilty look.
“I tried… Tried and failed. Oh well maybe next time!” You chuckled.
“Oh hey, Daryl right?” Turning and following Aaron’s gase you spotted him again. So the possum guy’s name was Daryl.
Giving him a small smile “I guess those kinda things aren’t for you either?”
Not quite looking at you he gave a non committal grunt.
Deciding to take Aaron’s earlier advice, Taking a deep breath.
“You eaten? I’m making spaghetti if you’re hungry?” He shrugged again.
“C’mon, She makes some pretty serious spaghetti” Aaron teased, raising his eyebrow at you.
“Guess I could eat” He mumbled, still looking more at his feet than you. Aaron gave you a wink as he went back inside giving you both a wave before shutting the door.
“C’mon it’s this way. Just down from your house. I guess you could say we’re neighbours” He fell into step with you still staying quiet the entire way. As you opened the front door you looked backwards seeing Daryl looking between your open door and his own house.
“Come in, Food won’t be long!” Holding the door open Daryl finally made his decision, his feet carrying him swiftly up the stairs and inside. Flicking the lights on as you followed him.
“Kitchen’s that way, I’ll get you a drink. Whiskey ok?” He finally looked at you.
“You guys have Whiskey?” A shocked expression crossing his face. “Yeah i found it out there still unopened a while back, I was saving it for a special occasion, But shh don’t tell olivia or she’ll add it to that list of hers!” He gave you a small smile as you poured a glass for each of you passing it to him.
“Make yourself at home! I’ll get this started” He took a seat at the breakfast bar rolling the glass around in his hands whilst you busied yourself in the kitchen pulling out everything you would need and quickly getting it started.
Turning back to the breakfast bar you grabbed the loaf of bread slicing a few pieces and covering them in some oil and wild garlic you had found on your hunt yesterday. Popping them into the oven. He spoke again “Why’s it a special occasion?” He mumbled.
Grinning at him and taking a sip of your whiskey. “It’s not everyday I get to cook my serious spaghetti for just anyone!”
You could see the blush rising in his cheeks as he took a long swig of his whiskey. You leant over to top his glass off, Before turning to the cupboards and grabbing placemats, Plates and cutlery.
“Here let me do that” He tried as he moved towards you.
“Absolutely not! My mother would roll over in her grave if she knew i put a guest to work” Smiling sadly as your mother popped into your head again. Setting the table.
Turning your attention back to your meal you strained the pasta, Popping it into a dish before dishing up the sauce too. Taking them back to the table and returning to the oven to fish the garlic bread out.
Once everything was on the table you both took a seat. Reaching over you served him a large portion popping a few pieces of garlic bread on his plate before serving yourself.
“Dig in” You insisted before turning back to your plate. He watched you take the first few mouthfuls before reaching for his own fork.
After a few minutes of silence you spoke up again “So what do you think of Alexandria?”
“I think it ain’t real”
“I thought that for a long time, Hell I’m still not convinced and I’ve been here 3 months”
“So your not…uh…Not from here. Like the others”
“I’m from out there I guess. Asheville Georgia originally”
His eyes went wide at this “Me too, Sorta. Lived up near the mountains in Georgia”
A huge grin crossing your face “So we’ve always been neighbours then! How strange that we would meet here in DC! We must have been in the same places a thousand times! I used to go hunting in the mountains with my daddy”
He shrugged “Alotta my group from near there, We met in Atlanta……” he trailed off mumbling “Ya wouldn’t have noticed someone like me anyway”
Trying to get him to meet your eyes over the table, “Oh i most definitely would have noticed YOU Daryl”
He cleared his throat awkwardly, the tops of his ears peeking through his shaggy hair going beet red, his face lowered, he turned his attention back to his food.
Realising you had probably gone too far, Afterall you didn’t really know anything about this man, You had only seen him once yesterday morning before tonight, You weren’t even sure if he was single. Or straight for that matter. Trying to ease the awkwardness that had now descended in the room you tried a quick change of conversation.
“How are your group feeling about being here? Did you and your partner manage to sleep okay?” Hoping your not so subtle way of asking him if he were single wouldn’t be too obvious.
“Partner? Rick’s the Cop not me” He grumbled. Okay maybe not as obvious as you first thought.
You shook your head slightly, his obliviousness was strangely endearing, “Sorry no i meant your girlfriend, Wife” When he didn’t reply straight away you figured you must have missed the mark. “Boyfriend?” You questioned.
He snorted at this “I ain’t gay, Aint got no woman either” Not able to contain the gleeful smile on your face. Not that it would matter his eyes were fully trained on his meal as he started devouring it quicker, Reaching for his glass he drained the remaining dregs of the whiskey.
“Oh really? I thought for sure you’d have been snapped up by now!”
The blush returning to his face again he gave you a noncommittal grunt, Waiting a moment you realised he wasn’t going to answer. Not much of a talker. You were probably being too pushy, Small talk was hard to do after seeing the things he no doubt had seen out there, The things that man had probably had to do just as you had, Suppressing the shudder that threatened to run through you as your mind conjured up the images.
Standing quickly you walked back to the kitchen grabbing the bottle and refilling his glass and in turn your own.
Taking a deep gulp of the whiskey and then quickly finishing your own meal in silence, Both finishing your meal at the same time, Daryl raises the plate to his mouth to scrape the last bits of pasta into his mouth.
“Still hungry? There’s plenty more if you would like some more?”
Shaking his head no “ ‘M good.” He grunted. Taking his plate from him and collecting your own you took them into the kitchen dropping them in the sink you turned to retrieve the serving bowls, Almost crashing straight into Daryl, Your hands flinching up and landing on his chest steadying yourself.
He caught the bowl just in time surprisingly before any of the remaining food managed to spill on the floor.
Feeling the blush on your cheeks now as your hands lingered a moment longer than they should have done, Enjoying the firmness of his muscular chest under your fingers.
Dropping your arms to your sides. “I’m sorry! Thank you, Let me take that” Taking the bowl and turning your beetroot red face away from him you found a tupperware box in the cupboard filling it with the leftovers before turning to the sink and washing the dishes.
When you turned back to him he was watching you silently, Studying you it seemed.
Picking your glass back up you motioned to him “Should we finish the bottle or do you have somewhere to be?”
When he made no move to leave you picked up the bottle and motioned towards the living room letting him follow behind you, Taking a seat you finally kicked your uncomfortable heels off, Your feet instantly throbbing grateful to be out of their confines.
Propping your feet up on the coffee table in front of you, You sank back into the plush cushions behind you with a happy groan, Daryl stood awkwardly next to the couch glass hanging from his fingertips gasing at you with a softness in his eyes, The redness rising again in cheeks once he realised you had caught him gazing at you.
Smiling at his warmly “No need to stand on ceremony, Take a seat” Patting the chair next to you from emphasis. “More?” You asked, shaking the bottle at him. Taking it from you he filled his own glass before turning to yours and topping yours up also.
Clearing his throat awkwardly. “So…Are ya people here too?”
Dropping your eyes from him you shook your head sadly “Just me…They’re all gone….” The alcohol was taking over your words as you mumbled “Shouldn’t have been me…” Feeling a tear escape your eye as you thought about the countless lives you had watched taken before their time. People who would have been the greatest asset in this new world…Gone, Some died saving you. For what.. They should have let you die.
Pulling your mind from those thoughts, It didn’t do anyone any good to dwell! Wiping the tear quickly from your cheek grabbing your drink and gulping it down in one.
Turning back to Daryl you shifted a non convincing smile back to your face.
“How about you? Your group seems very close almost like a…”
Finishing your sentence for you “A family……Ya know i look around and i think about the people that are gone, And the people that are still here and it aint right…Aint fair..But yer gotta keep goin for em”
Smiling at Aaron’s name “Yeah i wouldn’t be here either if it wasn’t for him and Eric, They’re good people. Most of the people here are good people. Too innocent to the world as it is yes, But good people..”
After sitting in silence for a few moments when Daryl broke the silence. “Well i should…I should go….They’ll be wonderin where i am”
Standing with him you walked him to the door.
“Thanks. Thanks for the-”
“Your welcome Daryl….Maybe you could come again? It was nice to have company” Smiling you opened the door for him letting him linger on the threshold.
He let out another noncommittal grunt as his eyes lingered on you. Leaning against the doorway you followed his eye line down your body, smirking slightly you swayed your hips watching as his eyes followed your movements.
Darting forward you swiftly kissed his cheek. “Goodnight Daryl” The blush on his face matched yours as he turned and stomped down the steps rushing towards his own house.
Daryl
Holy shit she was perfect.
Good food, Great Whiskey, Perfect body. That dress…. He had never met anyone like her before, She hunted too. But a woman like that would never look twice at a man like him.
A dirty good for nothing redneck asshole, He didn’t even know why she had been so…so nice to him tonight.
Carol was waiting for him at the door. Puckering her lips at him she made a lip smacking noise “Kiss Pookie” She giggled.
“Shut up” He mumbled, heading straight for the stairs to the basement. He needed to be alone for a little while as he processed these thoughts. Locking the door behind him he took a few strides over to the bed and flopped down on it.
In the dark of the room the thoughts became more obvious. Throwing an arm over his face he groaned. From the second he had first seen her standing so beautifully in front of Aaron’s house he had a tightening in his stomach. He couldn’t have said no to her invitation if he tried.
If Merle had seen him tonight, Blushing like a love sick little girl, He would have had a right laugh, It was like he could hear his voice. “Oh Princess, Got a crush? Man up Baby bro, Go get that cooch”
Did she mean it when she asked if he could come again? He shook his head. She couldn’t have, she was just being nice. His mind couldn’t stop thinking of the way she smiled at him, The way her hair fell in front of her eyes when she laughed, The curves of her as she swayed in the doorway…. His pants were tightening at the thought. He would have to take care of that before he could fall asleep.
Imagining his hands were roaming her body he pulled his throbbing member free, He wouldn’t last long as he thought about her hands on him, While his hands roamed up those beautiful milky thighs. That beautiful mouth gasping for him.
God that did it, Groaning he let himself spill into his hand, Grabbing a rag at the side of him he wiped it from himself, Ashamed he turned over throwing an arm over his face before drifting into an undisturbed sleep at the thought of her.
Over the next few weeks he saw a lot more of Y/N, As they were the two best hunters in Alexandria they were often thrown together to head out of the walls.
Even in her half ruined Jeans and Walker splattered Shirt she was still gorgeous. On days like today when they’re outside the walls he noticed how her face changed from the strained smile to a relaxed free look in her eyes.
She was scanning the underbrush now checking the traps they had left the week before. He felt the blush on his cheeks when he realised he had been caught staring again.
“Everything okay?” She asked spinning around in a circle, her body tensing looking for the Danger.
He cleared his throat, “Yeah all good. Anythin in the trap?” Blush rising in his cheeks at being caught staring. After that they headed back to the town in comfortable silence, Walking side by side both carrying the day’s hunt, Y/N stopping every few minutes to forage things on the way.
Once back inside the walls, She came with him to his house as they always did now Only stopping to share the hunt with Olivia to share around the town, Y/N spent a lot more time around him and his group. Seeming to slot seamless into their messed up dynamic.
Just like every night she helped Carol prepare the dinner while he retreated to the porch, Cleaning his bow and bolts, The door open letting her musical laugh wash over him as he worked.
He could have listened to her all day, Before long he forgot what he was meant to be doing and just closed his eyes, Head leaning back against the house, Fully relaxed for the first time being in Alexandria.
He groaned inwardly opening his eyes to see who was disturbing his peace.
“Hey…” Rick took a seat next to Daryl on the porch nudging his knee and pointing towards the house.
“Y/N been spending a lot of time here…What’s going on with that?” He asked, giving you a knowing look.
“Why yer asking me?” Daryl huffed. “Shouldn’ yer be askin her”
Rick sighed before giving him another knowing look. “I seen the way you look at her, You sweet on her?”
Daryl wasn’t sure how to respond because of course he was ‘sweet’ on her but there was no changing who he was, A beautiful woman like that could never be interested in him, So there was just no point admitting his feelings to his friend as he knew you would never reciprocate those feelings.
Just as he opened his mouth to reply your beautiful song filled voice broke interrupted at just the right moment. His heart pounding, blush spreading across his face as you smiled at him, He was grateful for the darkness to hide this from you.
As he stood he felt her fingers brush his arm as she gave him an inquisitive look.
Y/N
You felt the electricity hum between you as your fingers found his arm, You had both been taking as many opportunities as possible to get closer to each other, So grateful when you were partnered together to hunt.
Sweet dreams, TN

Words: 2,7K
Sweet dreams, TN
Being on tour with your boyfriend, Miles Kane and his best friend Alex Turner was amazingly chaotic and you loved every minute of it. You were now in your home country for a couple of days where they would play some shows and you offered your childhood home to sleep in since it was in the middle from where they all had to go and play gigs. Miles, Alex and his girlfriend took you up on it but the other bandmates wanted some time for themselves which you could completely understand.
Miles was done with playing his last gig before he had two, much needed, days off. It was around summer time and you couldn’t wait for Miles to finally meet your friends. Your mom was staying over by her boyfriend so you had the home to yourselves.
You both had slept amazing in your old home. You loved the bunkbeds from the tour bus but nothing could beat a nice big comfortable bed. Today you would go to the beach with your friends and you noticed that Miles needed some relaxing time before getting back on the stage to rock it again. Your friend would pick you up and drive you all to the beach. You took some water bottles with you, multiple cans of gin tonic, sunscreen, sunglasses, towels, and a lot of snacks.
You, Miles, Alex and Louise waited outside and even though Miles had a good night sleep, he was still very tired. He wore some soft white shorts and his blouse over it which was only closed with one button, giving a slight look of his abs. His sunglasses on his face while he looked up at the sun with his eyes closed, enjoying the warmth of the sun. His golden necklace glistered in the sun just like his golden bracelet as he held your hand loosely in his. You looked at Miles lovingly and smiling at the sight of how relaxed he already was.
You softly kissed his cheek, making him open his eyes. Your knuckles softly brushed alongside his cheek. He got a big smile on his face and placed his arm around you. “Fank ya babe. I realleh needed this!” he told you energetic even though you knew better. “You’re more than welcome! I could use a relaxing beach day as well.” you told him, making him grin. He cupped your cheek with his slender hand and pulled you in for a kiss. You both sight into the kiss, finally having some time for each other until a loud honk pulled you out of the moment.
You both looked at the car and you saw your friends waving at you. You looked at Miles with a bright smile and held his hand while walking to the car. You could see that there was only three seats left. “Get on me lap luv.” Miles told you, getting the bag from you. Everyone greeted the both of you and it was already a lot of fun. Miles sat down and helped you to sit on his lap while Alex and Louise got in as well. He placed the seatbelt around the two of you while you sat sideways on his lap. Miles’s arms were tightly closed around your waist.
Your friends knew that this was a big moment since you’ve never came home with a guy as your boyfriend to meet everyone so they knew that this was a big deal and so did Miles, who wanted to leave a good impression.
They rode to the beach while putting the music on high volume. Miles kept placing kisses on your shoulder and drew patterns on your waist with his slender finger while chatting and already joking with your friends until you arrived at the beach which didn’t took too long.
You all got out and Miles got more himself again as the sun did him very good, besides Miles loved beach days just as much as you so that alone already made him excited. Miles already had a hold of your hand and you played with his golden rings.
You walked towards ‘your spot’ where there was enough sun, shadow and not too many people. You laid down the towels and sat down, getting the sunscreen from your bag and the water bottles. Of course you and Miles wanted to lay down in the sun just like Alex and Louise. You put some sunscreen on your body while Miles did your back. While he was putting some sunscreen on your shoulders, he softly started massaging you. “Ya too tense babe, try to relax for meh.” He told you softly while he tried to work away the knots. “The sun will do me some good as well.” you remarked.
Miles stopped, not wanting to hurt you. “I’ll give ya a massage when ya fully relaxed doll.” He told you, giving the sunscreen to you. “Thank you Mi.” you told him and sat behind him so you could do his back. His muscles were fully relaxed underneath your touch and you were happy with that. Once you were both done Miles offered a cigarette to you, which you gladly took before he got one for himself. You handed him the bottle of water and turned on your stomach so you could chat with your friends. Alex and Louise seemed to like your friends as well, chatting and laughing away with them
They put the speakers on and put some music on while chatting away. It was really nice catching up with them again and they seemed to like Miles very much which made you even more happier. Some friends started chatting with Miles while you talked to the other ones about the tour and what you’ve experienced so far.
After a while you all decided to go for a swim. Miles hinted for you to jump on his back which you did. You could hear him cackle while you couldn’t stop giggling once he started running towards the water. Your friends were laughing while you held on tight to Miles. You felt the water hit your feet and it wasn’t as cold as expected but more refreshing. Miles stopped running and was now walking slowly deeper in the water. He carefully let go off you so you could slip off of him and get used to the water.
“Imma still dunk you later.” You chuckled at his remark and took a dip which took him by surprise but followed you soon. You got up and looked around for Miles until you felt someone touch your leg, making you squeak by surprise. Miles came up and started cackling “surry babe. Didn’t mean tha scare ya.” He chuckled which you did as well. You started to cling to Miles in the water. Your legs wrapped around his waist and your arms around his shoulders and neck while his arms were wrapped around you.
He placed his hand on the back of your head and placed multiple kisses on the side of your head. “Ya like a kaola right now.” he cackled and you smiled. You felt your body fill up with love and affectionate “I love you so much Mi.” He got one of the biggest smile you saw today “I luv ya too babe, so much ya have no bloody idea.” You couldn’t wipe the smile off of your face and kissed him. You tasted the cigarette smoke on his lips and it felt just like home. You felt so complete and at peace right now that it felt like your heart was going to burst with love.
“Ya two lovebirds are so cute together.” Alex chuckled while Louise was on his back. You and Miles looked at each other with love and adoration. You remembered what Al had told you a while back and that was that he never saw Miles so happy and in love with anyone except for you and that he liked you right away.
Miles swam towards your friends who were wrestling in the water. They sat on each other’s neck, trying to push the other one off and taking turns with it. “Get on me neck babe and show um!” he told you, making you grin as Louise got onto Al’s shoulders. You let go of Miles and got onto his shoulders with his help and he held you tightly by your legs.. You pushed Louise off and after that your friends tried to, but failing one after the other, making Miles cheer loudly for you. “Go on then babes! Ya mega at this luv! Let’s have m”
You chuckled but got distracted by Miles and got pushed off, making your friends cheer. You and Miles went down under and got up from the water laughing loudly. After a while a friend got out of the water to get a ball and got back in. It was some sort of volleyball but in the water and without a net, just standing in a circle. You stood next to Miles and Alex and you looked at your boyfriend and got distracted by his abs.
Miles caught you, making you feel a little embarrassed and you heard him cackle. He walked towards you and held you by your waist. “If ya fink I look good, ya aven’t seen yaself luv. Ya a bloody painting babes.” You felt flustered as he whispered in your ear and placing a loving kiss on your cheek before walking back and winking at you.
You all played with the ball and tried to not let it hit the water as it was one of the rules and it turned chaotic very fast as everyone tried to jump for it and if you did let it hit the water, you were out of the game. Now it was just between you and two other friends. Miles and Alex were cheering you on, on the side line. “Come on babe! Show m! Ya got this!” Miles kept motivating you and cheering you on. “Let’s go Y/N! Ya got this!” Al shouted as well and you had beaten one of your friends, making them cheer even louder and you couldn’t wipe away the proud smile you had plastered on your face.
It didn’t took long before your other friend lost as well and Alex and Miles came jumping towards you. Miles picked you up and spun you around in the water “That’s meh girl! Ya showed them luv!” he told you, peppering your faces with kisses, making you chuckle.
You all got out of the water after being in there for at least a good two hours. Miles got his pack of cigarettes out of your linen bag. He placed a cigarette between his lips, which was now a bit soaked because his hands were still wet. You handed Miles, Al and Louise a can of gin tonic and laid down on the towel. You put some more sunscreen on your body and smeared it on Miles as well before handing it over to Louise so she could do Alex.
Miles started to get tired and after he finished his cigarette he rested his head on your stomach. You went with your nails over his head, relaxing him completely. You looked at his body which was glistening in the sun, still a couple of drops of water on his body. He had his sunglasses on but you could see that he had his eyes closed and you let him rest while you talked with your friends and Alex but kept, softly, scraping his head, knowing he loved that. Miles had one arm wrapped around your leg for physical contact.
It was over an hour now and you were sure that Miles had dozed off as Alex hinted with his head. You looked down at Miles. He started to get a little sunburn on his face, so Alex handed you the sunscreen and you placed some on your hands and carefully put it on his face, softly rubbing it out and definitely on his nose, which started to become a little red. You could see that Miles slowly woke up through his sunglasses. He looked at you and gave you a loving smile “Must’ve dozed off.” he told you softly and you gave him a loving smile.
“That’s okay Mi. You deserve some rest. You’re just getting a sunburn.” You told him while still smearing it out on his face. He got your hand and placed a kiss on the back of it. “Fank ya for takin care of meh.” Tiredness covering his voice. “Always, Mi.” You told him and softly kissed his nose as he smiled lovingly and cutely in response.
He sat up and got his pack of cigarettes again and lit one before standing up and started playing with the ball with Alex, kicking it over. Miles did some tricks with the ball before passing to Al again. You watched Miles with a smile on your face until your eyelids became to heavy to keep them open and you drifted off.
You woke up from some water dripping on your face and a turtle who kept peppering your faces with kisses. You smiled, knowing it was Miles. “Ya dozed off luv.” He told you. You let out a sigh and stretched a little, feeling drowsy from the sun. “Yeah, apparently.” You chuckled and sat straight. Miles sat down behind you, his legs on either side of your body. He pushed you carefully backwards so you could lean against his chest. He kept kissing your head while you grabbed his hand and played with his fingers in an affectionate way.
After a whole day at the beach you decided to go home and have a barbeque with everyone. They dropped you, Miles, Alex and Louise off at home. You and Miles showered together to safe water and time. You wore one of Miles blouses and high waist pants. Miles wore a blouse and shorts. After you got ready Alex and Louise claimed the bathroom. You and Miles decided to go to the store to get more booze and food for the barbeque.
The food was rearranged pretty quick but with the booze you stood there a little longer. Miles got a couple of bottles since he couldn’t decide. Luckily he knew Alex better than anyone and also knew his to go drink. Once you were packed you walked home hand in hand, each carrying a bag. When you got home, Alex and Louise were already done and ready to go.
When you arrived they just started the barbeque. It was a lot of fun and everyone was quickly buzzed from the alcohol. After the barbeque you decided to go into town and to the club where you always went before Miles. You walked in and saw a lot of familiar faces who lit up once they saw you. You hugged everyone and made a quick small talk while Miles handed you a gin tonic and a kiss on your cheek before going back to Alex, but always keeping an eye on you.
After you chatted with everyone you started dancing with your friends, Miles, Alex and Louise. The drinks were flowing and everyone was proper drunk at this point and when the club closed you decided that it a good time to call it a day. Miles saw that you were very tired and buzzed. “Jump on me back luv.” He told you and he didn’t have to tell you twice as you jumped on his back. Your legs around him, arms around his shoulders and you let your head rest besides his. Louise was on Alex’s back as well, just as tired as you were.
When you finally made it home you undressed, brushed your teeth at the same time as Miles and let yourself fall in the freshly made bed. Your eyes already closed when you felt the bed dip besides you. You opened your eyes and looked into the warm, loving brown ones of Miles. “I had a lot of fun babe.” You smiled tiredly at him “Me too. Thank you.” Miles kissed your nose “Na, fank ya luv. Ya took me with ya.” He told you in his thick scouse accent, hinting that he was absolutely exhausted as well.
“Let’s get some sleep.” You told him while you crawled towards Miles, who already had his arms around you. “Goodnight luv.” He placed a quick peck on your lips. “Goodnight turtle.” You murmured as sleep already took over and the last thing you heard was a soft chuckle from Miles “I luv ya babes.”
