*Time skip to the next morning cause I can xD* Also, pic on the side is basically what will be described later on in the chapter but with a bit more badass accessories xD

"Oh..... -cakeeee........ Wake-...... Pumpkin... Come on, we've got work to do..." You're softly shaken up from your deep slumber by a, surprisingly, soft voice. Suddenly you feel some movement and you hear a metal on metal click on your left temple, on your ECHO implant and a slight cold sensation against the skin surrounding it.

Another click follows but this click... It's different. It sounds like... It sounds like a gun's safety being unlocked...

Your eyes fly wide open as you try not to make any movements. Well, it seems like that Jack would actually shoot you if he had the chance, after all...

"What the actual fu-"

"Ah, ah, ah! Language! But hey, at least you're awake! Great! Let's go, cupcake! We've got a busy day ahead of ourselves!" The chirpy voice fills your ears, shaking you up from your half asleep state.

Sitting up you angrily glare at the back of Jack's head as he looks around your room. You're actually surprised that he hasn't turned around and pointed the pistol, that is still in the palm of his hand, between your eyes for doing so.

"Cupcake?" He drags out the word with a weird tone to it, a tone you can't really place. It's somewhere between calm and not so calm, but you just can't place it. You just hum to let him know you're paying attention anyway, not sure what to expect. "Get dressed, pumpkin. Now. We've got people to do, things to meet! Or... Something like that..." He trails off and turns on his heels just to land back on your bed with a loud thud. He leans back and reaches up with his arms, nearly reaching you on the other side of your bed.

You throw your duvet off of yourself with a huff, it covers his face, the sudden shortage of light catching him off guard. "Aren't you going to leave my room? I'd like to have a shower and get ready..." You turn from your wardrobe to Jack; who's now sat up on your bed, with the duvet in his lap and staring at you.

You're only wearing a bra and a pair of booty shorts, as usual. Hyperion has a really damn good heating system, so, even in the middle of the night, it's really quite warm, unlike on Pandora. You cross your arms in front of your chest, suddenly feeling self conscious.

"Well, I sure as hell wouldn't mind to join you in your shower, pumpkin!" He exclaims, with lust in his eyes, he's nearly drooling, for the love of God.

"Ugh... Whatever... I mean, no, you can't shower with me but I just can't be bothered to drag you out so... I'll be in the bathroom..." You grab a pair of fresh underwear from one of your drawers, along with a sports bra and strut through the room into the bathroom on the other side. You feel Jack's eyes on you the whole way. You made sure to shake your hips just a small bit more than usual to make it even worse for him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Strutting back out of the bathroom, half an hour later, now with a fresh pair of underwear on and feeling a lot more fresh, you find Jack still sitting on your bed, but now on the edge of it, with is elbows resting on his knees and head supported up by his hands. "Heh... Took you long enough, kiddo." He chuckles as his eyes scan over you again and he sits up straight.

"Stop your staring, asshole... This is not the candy shop and I'm certainly not one of your favourite sweets!" You chuckle as you turn your back to him to pick what to wear.

Opening your wardrobe wide, you stare at the pieces, all hung up in a colour coded order. Whites, greys then blacks. Then all the coloured pieces. Red, blue, yellow and so many more, yet your eyes settle on your khaki safari outfit. It would be appropriate, as it's comfy, quite warm as the shorts can be rolled down into a long pair of trousers and (bonus points) it's actually quite sexy so... Yeah...

It's just a plain khaki T-shirt, shorts and a jacket. Matching boots came with it, as a discount so... Might as well!

Throwing the jacket onto your bed, you pull on the rest of the pieces, feeling Jack's eyes on you for the whole time, even as you're pulling your hair back into a ponytail.

"Move." You direct Jack, soon after you're finished with your hair. His eyes go wide, for a split second forcing his whole face into a surprised expression, which then turns into a frown soon after. Yet, he still moves without any objection. He stands up and takes a couple of steps away from your bed, letting you kneel down next to it to pull out a big metal box.

Curiously, the older man peeks over your shoulder to see the contents of the interesting box.

"It's my stash!" You smile as you open up the box and reveal all your carefully kept guns.

Sorry this is 1) short and 2) took WAAAY too long to finish... I've just been kinda busy with life. Like, I'm doing my GCSEs in a couple of weeks' time and such so... Updates will be slow... Sorry...
But I hope you guys enjoy it! :3
