A few hours after midnight, Leane awoke to her stomach wanting food. After about ten minutes of her stomach not giving up it's pursuit for food, Leane sighed as she reluctantly slid out of Matt's arms, careful not to wake him, and slipped from the bed. Wrapping the top blanket around her like a towel, Leane made her way to her bag and quickly changed into her undergarments beneath the blanket. After replacing the blanket on the bed, Leane placed a tender kiss upon Matt's forehead before going back to her bag and dressing in her pajamas, a Daft Punk T-shirt and a pair of Abercrombe shorts. Slipping from his bedroom as quietly as she could, Leane made her way to the kitchen on her tip toes to search for something quick to eat.

Matthew rubbed his eyes sleepy as he heard Leane leaving and stumbled out of the bed, somewhat clumsily, before pulling on a pair of his sweatpants. Matthew ran his fingers through his hair as he made his way into the kitchen to see Leane looking for food. "If you're hungry, love, I would've made you something." He smiled as he jumped onto a counter to sit.

"I didn't want to wake you just because I was hungry, you'd never sleep if I did," Leane teased with a laugh as she continued looking in the cupboard a few feet away from him. Closing the cupboard door, Leane walked over to Matt and wrapped her arms around his waist as she smiled up at him, one of his legs on each side of her waist, "But that's an offer I can't refuse now that you've made it. Are you hungry too?"

"A little." Matthew smiled as he put his arms around Leane and gave her nose a kiss. "What would you like, love?" He asked softly as he rested his forehead against her's.

"Something... sweet. Do you have any cookies?" Leane asked as she placed a tender kiss upon his lips, "Anything with chocolate?"

"We have oatmeal chocolate-chip cookies." Matthew said as he pointed to a small cookie jar on the counter. "Over there." He told Leane before giving her a last kiss and loosening his grip so she could get a cookie.

Grinning, Leane slipped out of his grasp and grabbed the cookie jar. Bringing it over to Matt, Leane set it on the counter after resuming her previous stance. Taking the top off the jar, Leane grinned as she took a cookie and bit into it. "Mm, they're delicious! Are they homemade or bought at the bakery?" Leane asked as she squirmed a tad out of happiness and took another bite.

"Homemade." Matthew laughed as he bent his head and took a bite of Leane's cookie. "My mom is awesome at making cookies." He smiled proudly after he finished his bite of cookie and wrapped his arms around Leane again.

Leane laughed as she finished her cookies and grabbed another, "I think I may steal your mom and have her cook for me! That, or I may come live here. Whichever is easier," Leane added with a laugh as she took a bite of the cookie, "Think she'd mind terribly if I took over the guest bedroom?"

"She might mind a little bit but she'd be more mad at me for trying to sneak in every night to be with you." Matthew teased as he kissed her nose gently and rested his forehead against her's. "I like having you curled up next to me when I sleep." Matthew pondered absentmindedly as he tried to stifle a yawn.

"I like it too," Leane whispered softly against his lips before placing a tender kiss upon his lips, "And I wouldn't be against you sneaking in. We should have sleepovers more often," Leane added with a wink. "Even if all we do do is sleep," Leane added with a laugh as she grabbed a few more cookies from the jar before putting the lid on it and stepping away from he counter. Linking their fingers together, Leane smiled, "You're tired so I'll curl up with you and eat these in bed. And I promise, no crumbs on the blankets," Leane added with a laugh as she leaned forwards and placed a tender kiss upon Matt's lips.

"I think I'd learn to forgive you somehow." Matthew grinned sleepily as he brought Leane back into his bedroom and curled up in his bed, pulling Leane to lay next to him. "I love you, Lee." Matthew smiled into Leane's hair as he felt his eyelids start to droop.

Smiling, Leane placed a tender kiss upon Matt's forehead as she murmured softly, "I love you too." Snuggling back into his embrace, Leane ate her few cookies before resting her arms upon the ones that held her and rested happily against Matt, falling back asleep soon after now that her stomach was full of delicious sweets.

Matthew murmured incoherently as he woke up the next morning and wiggled slightly, his head resting in Leane's hair. "Morning, love." He whispered softly, unsure if Leane was even awake.

Turning to face Matt, Leane buried her face in his chest as she wrapped her arms around his waist. "Mfhmhf," was Leane's incoherent way of saying 'Morning'. Arching her neck to placed a tender kiss upon Matt's Lips, Leane smiled as she tried once more, a bit more coherent this time, "Morning already?"

"Yup." Matthew grinned against Leane's lips, giving her another kiss before cradling her to his chest. "Or at least early afternoon." He yawned as he looked over to the alarm clock that read the time as just after noon.

Leane smiled as she shifted to lay on her stomach, one arm draping loosely over his abdomen while the other slid behind his shoulder, her palm resting upon his shoulder as her head rested against her fingertips. "Does that mean we have to get out of bed? Because I'm quite comfortable at the moment and think we should just lounge about all day and watch movies."

"I think that's a great idea." Matthew grinned as he tilted Leane's chin to give her a long kiss. "I love you, Lee." He murmured against her lips. "Very much." He smiled as he gave her nose a quick kiss and rested his head back against the pillow.

"I love you too," Leane said happily as she placed a tender kiss upon his lips before snuggling back down in her previous position, reaching across his waist to link her fingers through his upon his stomach. Tilting her head so she could placed tender kisses upon Matt's neck, Leane inquired softly between kisses, "What movie shall we watch dearest? And please, no movies where I shall cry unless you wish to comfort me again and be covered in tears," teased Leane with a small laugh.

Matthew let out a small laugh as he ran his fingers over Leane's. "How about a movie with a happily ever after at the end?" Matthew asked as he leaned back into Leane's kisses. "We have a few older movies and some with crying romance endings that my mom watches." Matthew offered.

"Hmm, happily ever after sounds nice, what does your mother have for movies that fit that small, yet very crucial, criteria?" Leane murmured softly against his neck between kisses, "Anything I might like?"

"We have Nights in Rodanthe, The Notebook, and there's some movie that's The Princess Bride or something like that. I refused to watch that one." He laughed softly as he wound a hand into Leane's hair and brought her lips back to his to give her a long kiss.

Leane laughed as she murmured softly against his lips between kisses, "Refused to watch it? Why would you refuse to watch it? It's mainly a fighting movie," she added with a smile, "Would you be terribly angry with me if I said I wanted to watch it?"

"I think I could survive." Matthew grinned against her lips, giving her a last kiss before moving from the bed to find the DVD she wanted. Matthew retrieved the DVD from the living room and scrambled a few eggs to bring into Leane. Eggs, toast, and DVD in hand, Matthew returned to the bedroom and handed a breakfast to Leane before setting up the DVD and sitting on the bed beside Leane.

Smiling at the food, Leane placed a long, tender kiss upon Matt's lips as she snuggled closer to him, an old man sitting down to read a book to his sick grandson was the scene playing upon the TV. "Thank you," she murmured softly against his lips, "It smells delicious. But aren't you going to eat? I feel terrible that I keep eating all of your food when you don't eat a thing," Leane admitted with a blush as she too a bite of her eggs. "First the cookies, now you're cooking me breakfast.."
