My Best Friend's Dad || J.A.

Chapter Six

   "Cay," Caleb shakes his sister to wake her up. "I approve of your little boyfriend now." He says when she sits up quickly earning a confused look. "He brought breakfast for you and me."

"You only like Jensen because he brought you food?" Calen rubs her eyes and Caleb agrees. "You really are my brother. What time is it?"

"Ten." He answers swiftly. "And I have to leave to go 'work for the cartel.'" He makes a joke off of her assumptions of his and his roommate's jobs. "Don't-"

"Do not finish that sentence. I don't need to hear that from you." Caleb earns a glare and he shuts up. "Go get your food and go to work." She pats his arm. "And tell him I'll be out in a minute."

"I'll tell him to wait ten minutes because you take forever to actually wake up," Caleb states and instead of a pat, he gets a slap on his arm. "Ow!" He holds his bicep. "Let you stay here and you abuse me? I may just kick you out for that."

"Shut up and go get paid." Calen lightly shoves her brother off the bed and he listens this time.

Groaning, Calen rubs her eyes again and hears the front door shut. Yeah, she's definitely happy Caleb told Jensen to wait ten minutes because she's nowhere near awake. She rests her knees on her thighs and lets her head fall into her hands.

"Good morning." She hears Jensen's voice and she snaps her head up to see him in the doorway. He's holding a bag that she assumes is the food Caleb was talking about and also the fact he's holding coffee in his left hand.

   "'Morning," Calen replies before she lets her head fall into her head again. It may be because she's only ever been with one guy, but she feels awkward.

   Hearing the placement of the drink to her left and a dip on the bed, Calen knows Jensen's by her side. Plus she smells his cologne which smells much better than her ex's cheap cologne.

   "This is awkward," Calen says and it comes out muffled to Jensen but he can make out the words, causing him to chuckle.

   "I can leave." There's a slight laugh in his words. He doesn't sound hurt but understanding. Not even an inch off the bed, Calen leans forward to rest her forehead on his arm, silently telling him to stay. It may be awkward but his presence is nice and comforting.

   Sitting back down, Jensen slips off his shoes and moves to lie down next to Calen and wraps his arm around her shoulders. And just like the ride in the Impala, she snuggles into his side.

   It's as if the awkwardness exists when they're not touching because now it's nice enough that she could fall asleep in his arms. And does exactly that.

   Letting out a quiet, breathy laugh, Jensen slowly slides down until his head hits a pillow. Calen's body following with and her head resting on his shoulder.

   Moving on her own, Calen slides her whole body on top of Jensen's. Her head rests on his chest and her arms by his torso when her mind notices her hands won't fit under him. His hands lay on her back in different positions.

   The whole situation doesn't bother Jensen. It's like the cuddling situation after they slept together for the first time, but he doesn't plan on leaving this time.

   He brushes a few strands of hair off her forehead to behind her ear just to place a kiss on her temple.

   "My girl." His voice is low enough that it's almost inaudible.

   "Hey," Jensen whispers when Calen stirs in his embrace. "You were tired." He lets his fingers run through her hair and she hums at the action, trying to snuggle deeper into his chest. "How much sleep did you get last night?"
