I wake up trying to stretch my body but a heavy arm and leg were preventing me from moving an inch.   He mutters something incoherent and snuggles even further into my back.   I turn my head as far as it would go so i could look at him.  He was so sexy.  His dark lashes frame across the top of his high cheek bones and his lips pushed out into a pout.  I take my finger and run it down the length of his nose and he smiles slightly as his eyes blink open.  "Good morning, my soul.  Did you sleep well?"  Daw, i'm melting here. 

"Yes, the best night of sleep i ever had actually."  He gave me a sweet grin for that one and kissed my forehead.  I rolled my eyes and lifted up the blankets so i could get my lazy ass outta bed.  "Come on Spike, we have to go to school! "  I go to the closet and throw some clothes on. I notice that i am not as sore as i thought i would be, which was a huge relief!  I put my hair up in a hair tie so i dont have to worry about it and brush my teeth.  I finish with my teeth and come out of the bathroom and put my shoes on.  "I'm fixing coffee, do you want some?"  He looks over at me and nods. 

I run down stairs and see that mom has already started a pot so i grab two mugs and fix them up.  Mine with cream and sugar and his black.  I leave the mugs on the counter and run back upstairs to grab Spike and my bags.  "Spike the coffee is downstairs, lets go!" 

"Okay baby, let's roll..... your ass looks nice in those pants, by the way."  

I laugh loudly at his antics in the morning.  "I love you too Spike! Lets hurry before we miss the bus, we gotta grab our coffee."  We grab the drinks and run out the door and prayed that we got here on time.

................................................................

Our school day flies by and before we know it we are back home and ready to start digging. I didn't even know where to start.

"Okay the first thing i can think of is to get on the computer and search his name and see what we can come up with. Then we need to call the lawyers and see if we can meet up with them to see about the inheritance. We need to make sure that the meeting stays private because we don't want anyone finding out that we know about it, because apparently people are dying over it."

He thinks on this for a second and nods his head.  We really did need to be smart about it.  This was a real life or death situation and it's just us. 

"You're right.  Maybe we can go to the lawyers office tomorrow and see if they can tell us what's up with these papers and maybe if my uncle would even get the money if i had died."

He had a piont. Things were starting to get real here.  I just hope that we are moving in the right direction.  I really didn't want to do this but i think it's important.  What i am about to suggest is more than stupid, like jail stupid, but that is better than dead....right?

"I think that we need to snoop out old dear uncle Jack."

He just looks at me... not saying a word. "Umm hello, i know that you heard me. what do you think?"  

"If you're suggesting that we go to his house and dig arround like raccoons tearing through a trash can waiting for a broom beating then absolutely not!"

Seriously!  "Why not?  If it's not him then we need to figure something else out.  We would be wasting precious time here, time that we don't even have!  How could you say no?"

He seems to think on this for a minute and when he slumps his shoulders i know that i've got him, yes!

"Oh and before you say that you're going on your own, the answer is no."

They slump even further. Wow this is easier than i thought. I just love it when he gives in so easy, the things this man does to keep me happy.  Although if you reallly are paying attention here, it's not to keep me happy but the both of us alive.  How could he be so stupid to say that he is going by himself.  If he didn't come back i wouldn't know what happened to him.  Worse case they take one of us, if the other is lucky to escape, and then the other comes back with help. Bam easy peesy. Right?
