His innocent obsession

Chapter 6

I wake up to the blaring sound of a cell phone on the side table. Not bothering to open my eyes I hit the side button to silence it. And snuggle back into the blankets. It takes a minute before it hits me. My eyes shoot open and I scramble to pick up the phone again to see it's 11:30 in the morning, and the missed call is from John. Quickly putting the phone back down I turn and start shaking Jackson's shoulder. "Wake up. It's 11:30. John called. They're probably on their way!" I whisper yell. Groggily he yawns, stretching his arms above his head. I take advantage of being free from his grip and get out of bed. Pickup my nightgown, I fumble to get the right side in before slipping it over my head.

"Where are you going in such a rush?" He's leaning on his elbow rubbing the sleep from his eyes.

"Did you not hear me? John and Celeste are on their way. I have to get back to my room and make it look like I wasn't in here. Unless you want them to find out?"  He extends his hand making me sigh as I walk back over to him.

"At least give me a kiss before we start pretending not to know each other.  I smile leaning in to peck his lips. "Mmmm. I'll see you in a bit."  I nod and scurry out of the room. I quickly make my bed and jump into the shower. The hot water pouring down over my head and shoulders feels amazing on my stiff tired muscles. It's not until I start washing with soap and get to my lady parts that I realize just how sore I am. As I rinse, I cup my hand to allow water to pool and soothe the sorest part.  As sore as it is I still get turned on thinking about last night.

Shaking the thoughts from my head I shut the water off and quickly dry off. Thanking God it's Saturday I pick out a pair of loose gray sweatpants and matching cutoff sweat shirt that hangs off one shoulder. Grabbing black lace panties and matching bra and my high bunching socks I lay it all out on the bed. I get my panties and bra on before I notice that Jax has been sitting on the couch by the window this whole time. I jump clutching my chest as I fully turn in his direction. He's sitting forward with his elbows resting on his knees and hands clasped as he watches me.

"How long have you been sitting there?" I ask as I put my pants on. He sits back spreading his legs stretching his arms along the back of the back of the couch. He licks his  bottom lip pulling it between his teeth as his eye roam my body.

"Since you got out of the shower. I came in to tell you something and you had no clue I was here." I pull my shirt over my head and grab my socks to put on once I'm seated next to him.

"What was it that you wanted to tell me?" I look up as I fluff my socks. He waits till I'm done to speak. I turn in his direction bringing one leg up onto the couch.

"That John and your sister want us to meet them for brunch. I don't have to stay for brunch if you think it'll be too hard? I can leave."  I shake my head frantically, and shift to straddle his legs.  I fist his shirt looking at him.

"No! I want you to stay. I'm not ready to be away from you yet." He smiles cupping my face.

"I'm not going anywhere Baby.  Even if you told me to leave I still wouldn't have gone any farther than the front door." My heart starts to calm and I release the breath I was holding.

"Okay."

"Get your sneakers on. We gotta get going." He slaps my ass as I get up making yelp. As I run to my closet I hear him laughing. The sound has me smiling from ear to ear.

As we pull into a parking spot my nerves start up. "Relax baby. We've been over this a few times now. And you know what to do."  He smiles as he opens his car door and winks before getting out.  I watch him as he walks around the front of the car to my door. I can't help but wonder how such a perfect man could like me?  When the door opens I place my hand in his as I step out. He motions with his head for me to walk. I take a deep breath and start for the front door.
