At the Hodgsons

Chapter Eleven

The next morning.

Jack woke first and groaned lightly at the amount of light that was shining in his eyes when he opened them. He went to sit up but a weight on his chest stopped him from moving.

Looking down he smiled as he saw Nikki sound asleep with her hair splayed over his chest.

Jack's arm that was holding her in place moved up into Nikki's long blonde curls and he gently stroked them.

Nikki slowly stirred and her arm that was wrapped around his torso tightend in a attempt to hug him even closer. Her eyes were still shut as she softly kissed his bare chest.

Jack smiled and kissed the top of her head. "Good morning love."

"Morning," Nikki said in a sleepy voice, her eyes closed.

"It's weird isn't it? Waking up without our little girl crying."

"It's very weird, yes." Nikki giggled and finally opened her eyes to look up at Jack. He smiled down at her. "I do miss her."

"Me too love," Jack kissed her nose briefly and moved his head to look at the alarm clock on his bedside table. "She'll be here in about forty five minutes."

"Forty five?!" Nikki asked in a bit of a shocked voice. "Is it past ten?" Nikki untangled herself from Jack and looked at his alarm.

"Jesus, it's a quarter past ten! I can't remember sleeping in like that."

"Yeah it's been a while." Jack chuckled and lay back down bringing Nikki with him, making her squeal in delight.

"Jack!" Nikki giggled as she was now straddling Jack.

"Hello beautiful," He grinned up at her and moved her hair back so he could see her face better.

"Hello there handsome." Nikki smiled back and leant in to capture his lips with hers.

Jack smiled into the kiss and deepened it with ease. The kiss went on feverishly for a few minutes until Nikki decided she wanted more, so she started grinding her hips lazily against his, receiving a loud appreciative moan from Jack.

Jack pulled away after a few moments to come up for air and looked at a flushed Nikki on top of him with a determined look on her face. "Nik, we have forty five minutes and we need to shower as well to look fresh for my da."

Nikki groaned. "Jaaack..." she whined.

Jack chuckled. "What's gotten into you? Hormones again?" He smirked at her and briefly kissed her lips. "I didn't say we couldn't shower together..."

A wicked smile appeared on Nikki's face as she quickly pecked him on the lips before getting off him to leave their bed.

She walked over to the ensuite, biting her lip while keeping her eyes locked with Jack's, not forgetting to sway her hips a bit more.

"You'll be the death of me, Hodgson." Jack said while quickly getting out of the bed to follow Nikki to the ensuite but stopped when Nikki held out her hand telling him to stop. "What?"

"You're forgetting something." She raised an eyebrow at him, hoping he would get what she meant.

It took Jack a good few seconds to get the hint and he hurried to his bedside table to grab a foil package from it's drawer. He held it up for Nikki to see while smiling sheepishly at her.

"You're impossible." She giggled and turned around to walk to the shower cubicle.

...

forty five minutes later, Jack and Nikki sat on the couch with a mug of freshly made tea in their hands. They sat close to each other and Nikki rested her head on his shoulder.
