"Good morning beautiful" Jack murmured as he ran a hand over his face slowly toying at his own hair on his head as Alexa opened her eyes, being met with someone who looked so perfect despite only just waking up.

"How long have you been awake?" Alexa yawned as she stretched her arms above her head, letting the duvet roll down her body slightly, as she looked down, relief clouding her face as she realised she was wearing clothes, just not hers.

"Not long doll, but I thought I'd take in the moment of waking up next to ya" Jack smiled, as he rested his head on his arm and looked over at her, the smile never leaving his face.

"What time do you have to leave?" Alexa questioned as Jack looked over at the clock on the bedside table. "I've got about an hour, if ya wanna go get breakfast?" Jack questioned, a hopeful glance in his eyes, and a playful smile on his lips, he thought he was back in with a chance for Alexa, they had been getting on, she had even stayed the night, surely that meant something.

"Breakfast sounds good, I'm really fancying some eggs Benedict" Alexa smiled, as Jack threw her a quizzical look. "A eggs what?" Jack chuckled, as Alexa rolled her eyes playfully. "It's a good job you're a footballer" Alexa giggled, as she rolled out of bed. "And easy on the eyes" Alexa smirked, as Jack grinned widely at her.

"Are ya feeling okay though?" Jack questioned as he sat back down on the bed and took in Alexa's appearance. Jack would argue till he was blue in the face that she was the most beautiful woman he had seen, but he knew that the pregnancy was taking its toll on her, despite the glow she had to her, she did look tired.

"I'm okay" Alexa smiled, even if it was slightly forced. "Ya know ya can talk to me don't ya" Jack sighed, as Alexa ran a hand through her hair. "Just because I stayed the night it doesn't mean that everything goes back to being right in the world" Alexa stated.

"I know, I know" Jack muttered, as he stood up from the bed and pulled a T-shirt over his head, shaking his head in the process, but Alexa couldn't help but look over his body, and smile to herself, she knew she couldn't stay mad at him forever, and he was really trying, but it still hurt none the less.

"I still love you" Alexa whispered, as Jack let his eyes fall onto the female, he knew he wanted her to say them words, but he also knew deep down it hurt more hearing her say them.

"Ya don't mean it, if ya did ya wouldn't be looking at me like I've just shot someone" Jack smiled, it was forced, he wished it wasn't, he wished he didn't have to make a light joke to make it feel normal, but he knew he had lost out.
"Breakfast?" Alexa questioned, as Jack nodded his head, watching as Alexa climbed out of bed and threw her hair up in a messy bun, and then proceeded to grab a shirt from the pile on Jacks dresser and pull it over her hair, but Jack smiled to himself for a moment as he saw the small baby bump, he knew no matter what, that this baby would keep him and Alexa together, even if they didn't end up together in the end.

"Let's go and get some Benedict's eggs" Jack smiled, as Alexa laughed, and Jack swore his heart stopped beating for a moment. "It's eggs Benedict, Jack" Alexa chuckled, as Jack shook his head smiling. "They must of been Benedict's in the first place" Jack smirked, as Alexa held out her hand, which Jack took without a second thought, the familiar feelings flooding both of their bodies, as they smiled at each other and walked down the hallway, the smell of food showing them the way to the food court.

"What do you thinks going on?" Declan mumbled, as Mason pushed some mushrooms around his plate, his eyes focused on the glass of water in front of him as he listened to Alexa laugh from the food table, he knew he didn't want to look up and see them together, he knew he had been a dick, but he didn't think that Alexa would run back to Jack that quickly.

"I don't know and I don't want to, we need to stay focused" Mason mumbled back, as Ben rolled his eyes at the two of them. "She's a big girl, let her make her own mistakes" Ben stated, as he proceeded to then squirt tomato sauce on his scrambled egg, Mason smirking to himself and catching it on his Instagram story, until he looked up and showed Ben what he had done and saw Jack and Alexa in deep conversation with Phil, Jesse and Tyrone, the annoyance slowly clouding over Masons face.

"Like I said, let it go" Ben mumbled, as he took a mushroom from Masons plate and popped it into his mouth. "Easier said than done bro" Mason muttered, as he picked his plate up and went and placed it on the metal containers where the players had to leave their plates and any other food sources they had eaten, just so the nutritionist could see what they had been eating before matches.

"You're totally gonna take his legs out today aren't you" Declan muttered, with a small chuckle alongside it. "If it would make me feel better yeah, but we need to win this match" Mason mumbled, as his eyes casted over his sisters for a moment, letting them catch eye contact for a moment, but as Alexa smiled at him, Mason couldn't help but wonder if they'd be okay again now, maybe she did need Jack in her life.
