I wake up naked and in bed with Axel. He has me tucked into its arms where I find it uncomfortable and too hot. I try to roll out of his grasp, but he only holds me tighter.

"Axel," I whine. "Let me go. You always do this in the morning."

I lift my head and look up at him. He blinks, looking down at me with groggy eyes. Then he drops his head back on the pillow, mumbling. "You always leave me in the morning."

"Because I have to go to the bathroom. I need to brush my teeth. And I need to friggin' shower."

Defeated, I drop my head back onto the bed and deal with Axel's grip on me. Guess I'm going to have to do this another way. I scoot way too close to him for my liking right now and kiss his chest. Then I begin peppering kisses upward. As I expected, Axel loosens his grip just a little so that I can move up and kiss him higher. I smile. Men are so predictable.

"Baby," I tell him, kissing the base of his neck. "Please let me go."

"No," he whines.

"Yes," I breathe, kissing higher. "Yes, yes, yes." I kiss my way up to his jaw and then slide my hands over Axel's where they are gripping me by the waist. "Let me go baby," I whisper, kissing him softly.

Axel moans, running one of his hands through my hair. His other hand begins to glide up and down the spine of my back. His mouth moves perfectly in synch with mine, and we're kissing lazily in the morning. That's when I make my move.

I break the kiss with Axel and twist out of his loose grasp. Then I roll over to my side of the bed, and get up to go to the bathroom.

"No fair," he groans.

I laugh when I look at how cute he looks in the morning. His dark hair disheveled, those beautiful blue eyes shining at me.

"You tricked me."

"A girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do. I told you I needed to go to the bathroom."

I waste no further time, not wanting to be standing in the bedroom stark naked right now, and hurry inside. The first thing I do is use the bathroom, and then afterward I brush my teeth. I leave the door unlocked in case Axel wants to come in and shave or brush his teeth. Then I start the shower, wait for it to heat up, and step in.

The beating of the water against my flesh feels so soothing. I think about all the things I have to get done today. I need to meet with a new client about a vision board for their office space. Then I need to book a restaurant reservation, so Axel and I can meet Rosalie. I'm kind of nervous about those two finally talking to each other. It's not that I think Rosalie won't like him, but it's just the fact that she's my only sister, and I know she's going to judge the hell out of him. He was so good with my family last time though. I wince when I remember how my dad treated him back then.

I'm so consumed by my thoughts that I don't realize Axel's walked into the bathroom and stepped into the shower right behind me. In fact, it isn't until his hands snake around my waist that I notice his presence.

I gasp out of shock and then give him a light smack on his abs. Axel steps forward into the water, drenching himself entirely. I step forward to make room for him, brushing the hair out of my face. Then I turn around to face him.

I watch as he runs his hands through his locks, the water trickling down his biceps. His body looks so much hotter when it's wet.

"And who gave you permission to shower with me?" I ask him.
