Julia opened her eyes and started to stretch, only to stop and smile, looking at Derek who was still sleeping, his face turned toward her and peaceful. 
 
Her eyes went to the alarm clock and she reached over, trying to be careful and not wake him before her fingertips touched the button and reset it for his usual time.
 
Of course, she thought with a crooked grin as she saw the new position she was in, now she had ended up almost on top of him again and so had to slip her leg out from between his - but darned if she didn't like to invade his feet space when they were sleeping, she grinned to herself - and then slide backwards toward the edge of the bed, where she slipped on the pajama top and stood.
 
Once she was out of bed and wearing the top she stretched and half ran her fingers through her hair before moving to the closet to get what she would wear today and then head toward the bathroom for a shower.
 
She had enough time to shower, change, wake Derek if he was still asleep and then go see about waking Amber and getting the others ready to take off.
 
In a way, she thought with a little grin as she got under the hot spray of the shower, she hoped Derek was still asleep.
 
Prince Charming wasn't the only one that could wake someone with a kiss.  And Julia did like starting the day with a kiss from him.
 
She reached over and got some shampoo to wash her hair, closing her eyes and lightly humming a tune.
