Return To Me, My Love

I let out a soft groan as I open my eyes, stretching my arms and legs out as much as I can in the limited space as I fully wake up before I catch sight of a familiar shirt shoved in the corner of the bunk and I remember I'm in Franks bunk. I turn my head to the side and bury my face in the pillow, inhaling his scent on it when the curtain flies open and I jump in surprise, Frank smiling at me curiously as he asks "What were you doing?" "Nothing" I tell him and he smirks and says "Yeah ok, come on I have a surprise for you." "But comfy......you should come in here, there's blankets and pillows." Frank chuckles as he shakes his head fondly at me and says "But baby your surprise is out here." I narrow my eyes at him, my forehead creased into a frown as I say "It better be worth it." "Oh I think it will be" Frank tells me with a smirk on his face and I reluctantly climb out of his bunk, Frank waiting until I'm on my feet before scooping me up in his arms and carrying me to the front lounge where I see a fresh steaming cup of coffee sitting next to a plate with an apple and a bagel on it. "This is the surprise?" I ask and Frank smiles and says "Yeah, don't you like it?" "I got out of a bunk full of blankets and pillows for this?" I ask, pretending to be upset and Frank frowns and says "So you don't like it?" I try to keep a straight face, Frank looking more and more upset but I can't help it as I crack, a giggle escaping me and Franks frown turns into a smile as he sits me on the couch and says "Oh screw you, I should take it back." "But Frankie you know I'd die without my coffee" I tell him as I grab his wrist and tug him to sit down beside me. Once he's seated I reach out and grab my coffee as I tuck my legs up under me and lean in, resting my head on his shoulder and bringing the cup up so I can inhale the strong scent. "Mmm" I hum softly and Frank chuckles fondly as he turns his head to press a soft kiss to the top of my head, his arm wrapping around my waist as I sit up slightly and take my first sip. The coffee is extremely bitter and hot but it warms me up and makes me feel more awake so I take another sip before offering the cup to Frank and we share the cup, passing it back and forth before I pick up the bagel, tearing a piece off and holding it up to Franks mouth, his lips parting for me and I slide the piece inside, Frank playfully biting down on my fingers as they pass his lips.

After breakfast Frank takes me back to the bunk area and we both get changed into warm clothes, the bus pulling into the back of the venue as we make it back to the front lounge to pull our shoes on and a few minutes after we stop Frank and I are finally ready to leave, grabbing our hats and scarves on our way out, the sky an ominous black above us, small amounts of snow littering the ground. Frank takes my hand and leads me away from the bus and onto the street, telling me he has a whole morning planned for me and I smile wide as I follow him down the street, our fingers linked between each other's and Frank gently squeezes my hand every few seconds. We walk around all morning, stopping at a few landmarks before going to a massive art gallery, Frank humouring me by pretending to be just as excited as I am and when we leave I stop him, stepping around in front of him and smashing my lips to his as my arms wrap around his neck, Franks arms sliding down around my waist with his hands resting on the top of my ass. "Thank you baby" I murmur against his lips when we part for air before Frank leans in and seals our lips together again, his tongue sliding into my mouth and I let my eyes slip closed as I shuffle even closer to him and kiss back with just as much passion and we kiss for a few long seconds before we are broken apart by a bright flash and we both glance around, spotting a guy with a camera standing across the street staring at us. "Did he just...." I start before Franks hands leave me and he turns and marches across the street, yelling "What the fuck do you think you're doing?" Anger evident in his voice and I take off across the street after him as he gets in the guys face, looking ready to hit him.
