Hunters And Foxes

Chapter 19: Welcome to my humble abode

The sunlight is bright when the morning comes. Next to me Zac stirs in his sleep. I am about to leave the bed to relieve my bladder when I realise that Zac's arm is resting on a large amount of my hair. In my panic I go over a worse case scenario in my head-  If I wet the bed I'll have to clean the sheets and we'll both have to shower and I will feel extremely embarrassed which won't be fun. 

Waking him up is the only solution- "Zaaac, I gotta pee so bad," I whisper, running my hand up his arm. His eyes flutter open, blinking a few times before he registers what I said.

 "Oh whoops sorry babe," he says with the sexiest morning voice. He rolls over onto his back freeing my hair. 

"I'll be back," I yell sprinting towards the bathroom. I hear Zac singing Twinkle Little Star as I pee. He's unique human being but I am seriously falling in love with him.

 When I return to the bedroom Zac is doing angels in the sheets, "Someone is in good mood," I lean in to kiss him. 

"I am because I have the day off and I get to spend the day with my babelicious girlfriend. Mm you taste minty did you brush your teeth? Oh now I feel bad cause I have morning breath."

"Don't feel bad its fine. I'll kiss you anyway," I lean down, placing my lips on his. He gives me a fright when he pulls me on top of him. "Snake," I whisper over his lips. He chuckles into the kiss deepening it by tapping my bottom lip with the tip of his tongue. 

Just as the kiss is getting really heated- my hands in his hair, his hands kneading my ass and our legs tangled like unfortunate headphones, he pulls away. 

"We can't get carried away here. Let's go get drive thru Starbucks and head to my house where we can shower and stuff," he sits up. 

I get lost in thought focusing on how he brushes a strand of my hair away from my eyes, tucking it behind my ear. His eyes search mine for an opinion on his plans. Even though I completely agree I forget to speak as I admire his messy bed hair and his loving smile. 

"Penelope?" He coos pulling me out of my trance. 

"Oh sorry yes, that sounds like a fantastic plan hun," I grin.

With our coffees in hand we challenge each other to a race to the elevator. I am 20 metres in front of Zac when I get to the doors pressing the button hoping he won't be here in time but as he draws closer and the elevator still hasn't arrived I run towards the stairs. Well this is my work out for the day, hopefully no one sees me because I'm not wearing much. I sprint up the last two steps and race towards his front door where Zac still is not. The elevator pings as I reach the door.

 "I win," I giggle breathlessly. The smile on my face cannot be wiped away.

 "I forget how fast you are sometimes, my little Road Runner," Zac beams causing butterflies to frenzy in my stomach, "the best part is that you are just in what you slept in. Who needs running gear when you have your boyfriend's T-shirt." I shake my head and follow him into his apartment. His apartment smells like him in huge big dose and I have to keep myself from taking a big sniff. "We both smell, we need to shower," Zac declares picking me up and throwing me over his shoulder. I pinch his butt making him squeal like a girl.  As soon as he puts me down he sets to work on getting me undressed. "Ooh you didn't even have a bra on. Did your boobs hurt when you were running? Mum always complains about it when she walks down the stairs in the morning."

I raise my eyebrows at him. Sometimes he surprises me with the random things he says. He's somewhat adorable with his odd questions and observations. "The adrenaline overpowered the pain in my boobs. Plus my boobs aren't that big," I throw my underwear into the laundry hamper.
