I am so bad with updates lately.

Chapter six
Frank woke up, the sunlight pouring in through the window bleeding annoyingly through his eyelids. There was something on top of his head--not heavy, just there, noticable. The faint sound of breathing was soft, almost soothing, in his ear. He pried his eyelids open, looked up.
Soft blonde hair fell just in front of his face, tickling his nose. He felt warmth beside him.
Mel.
Something warm filled his insides. Never before had anyone gotten so close to him, acted so intimate with him. No girl had ever fallen asleep beside him, her head on his.
He didn't want to move, didn't want to disturb her sleep. She seemed so peaceful. Her arm was draped over his shoulder, hand dangling near his. He slid his fingers through hers and squeezed, praying she wouldn't wake up and freak out.
She stirred, shifted, a sharp intake of breath sounding in his ear. Then she settled with a happy sigh.
"Morning," she murmured sleepily. "Sorry I, uh, fell asleep on you."
"Oh, no problem."
"Time is it?" Gently, she pulled away from him, squeezing his hand before she broke away. "Hey, uh, d'you mind if I use the shower?"
He laughed. "Sure. Go ahead--shit!"
"What?"
"I just remembered. Practice!"
"Practice?"
"Band practice. The guys'll kill me if I don't show. Uh...Could you lock the door on your way out? You can still use the shower."
She looked a little taken aback, making him feel guilty for ditching her.
"Will do. See you around, Frankie!" she called, heading into the bathroom. She didn't seem upset, which was good.
"Bye, Mel!"
...
Sorry it's so short.
