"Jayj," I spoke softly, standing over his side of the bed, gently nudging him to wake him up, "Jayj, please get up." He groaned and pulled the covers over his head. I didn't want to wake him. He looked so peaceful and I know he doesn't get much sleep as it is but I needed him, "JJ, get up."

He huffed from under the covers and I could picture his eyes rolling, the annoyed look on his face as he did it and hearing the grumpiness in his sleepy voice, "Parker, shhhh I'm trying to sleep. You kept me up all night."

"I kept you up?" I pulled back the covers, exposing his back that had my nail marks all the way down it, "J, you were the one who was asking for more!"

A smirk pulled at his lips as he lifted his head from the pillow and I could just see him replaying last night in his mind, "I didn't hear you complaining."

"Shut it, Maybank!" I placed my hands on my hips and glared at him, softening my eyes a second later since I needed a favor. "Can you drop me off at Kie's? I wanna check on her after everything that happened yesterday with Sarah and John B."

He rolled over on his back, putting his arms over his head and stretched. His muscles flexed and his hair had fallen perfectly over his eyes as he softly smiled, "Yeah, give me five minutes."

"Fine, five minutes or I'm taking your bike," I gave him a wink as he shot up out of bed, his eyes wide, as if he was scared I'd actually do it, "Just kidding, relax." He sighed in relief as I gave him a soft smile and walked out of the room.

It was clear he took my joke seriously when he came out on the porch exactly four minutes later. He had my heart pounding in my chest by just looking at him, with his worn out tee with the sleeves cut off, hat on backwards, vape between his lips, "Let's go, baby."

I nodded my head and stood from the couch as we walked off the porch to his bike. He swung his leg over and put the key in the ignition and turned it over. He reeved it twice looking back at me as I rolled my eyes with a smile on my face. He held out his hand to help me up onto the bike as I sat down behind him, wrapping my arms around his torso, "You good, Park?"

"I'm good, Jayj," I laid my head on his back as he kicked back the kickstand and took off down the dirt road.

JJ pulled up in front of Kie's and turned off his bike. I slid my leg over, stepping off, and turning to walk towards the house, "Thanks, I'll catch you later,"

He grabbed me by my arm as I took my first step, pulling me back into him, "So that's it? 'Catch you later' that's all I get?"

I shrugged and rolled my eyes. I wasn't exactly sure how to act around him now that we weren't a secret anymore, that's partly why I didn't kiss him in the first place, but I gave in anyway, trying to hide my smile that was forming as I placed as kiss on his cheek, "You got enough last night. Now get out of here before Mike and Anna come out pissed off that you're being too loud."
