Leaning In For The Kiss

The sound of that godforsaken alarm startled Zoe from her sleep and she nearly jumped from her bed. Now, she could understand why Gabriel broke into her room that day. Sure, the alarm sound was horrible, but that was another reason why she got it. Zoe was a heavy sleeper, and she would sleep all the way if not for the horrendous sound. So yeah, it was a blessing and a curse. 

However, this specific morning, Zoe was tired out of her mind. Having a lot of fun yesterday and sleeping late at night has come to bite her in the ass. No! She couldn't get off this bed! She needed her beauty sleep! What's wrong with five minutes? Yes, five more minutes and she would be up for the day. 

The five minutes of sleep sure felt good, because when Zoe opened her eyes, it was a few minutes to the hour seven and she jerked out of the bed with a shriek. What the hell?! How did this happen? She had slept for more than an hour?! But it was only meant to be five minutes!
