HIGHWAY

24

After about half an hour, Jon got up and found me still wearing his shirt making the morning tea which I ordered.

He didn't look good. I mean, he did as always with his bare chest and messy hair flaunting his tanned skin, his abs and his gorgeous facial features. He looked disturbed as he had a faceoff with Reece in his dream.

My hand went out to cover my forearm noticing there were still fresh marks which he left and not something while he was making love.

Shaking it all off, I went back to my task acting like I didn't notice he was up. The cup made a sound as I kept it back on the table and I got up. Before I could turn around, I felt arms around me embracing me from behind puling me closer to the one who I was already finding myself being pulled at a rapid speed.

I closed my eyes in bliss as I felt his stubble on my neck as he planted soft kissed on my cheekbones from behind. Inhaling his cologne, I felt myself lean against him.

"Good morning" I whispered, suddenly feeling like I was living my dream life and I was married to the guy I loved. Like everything was perfect again, this time in a good way, both from inside and outside.

He turned me around capturing his lips with mine. I giggled as his lips couldn't keep themselves off of me and same went for his hands.

'Even in his sleep.' My conscious interrupted wickedly.

My smile faltered.

He pulled back this time noticing the cups. "You ordered morning tea?"

I nodded.

He snorted and started walking around the table to pick up the beer can "I don't drink morning tea"

"I didn't know what you preferred so I ordered what I used to do."

"Yeah, before you left your parents" he completed my sentence making sure to out as much venom in it as his could and he came back completing the round around the table to engulf me in his arms again. Suddenly, I didn't feel so good.

His hold on me tightened and now his lips were inches away from mine.

Those eyes were staring directly into mine while mine were struck on the floor.

"Slept good?" He used his hand the one holding the can to brush my hair back off my shoulder still looking at me. I nodded.

I raised my eyes to meet his because I needed to see them before I asked "And you?"

As usual, his expression didn't change but his eyes told a different story.

He gave a curt nod before leaning in to kiss me again.

Letting me go he moved backward pulling out the chair. "Have your tea?"

"Won't you try?" I looked at him with hopeful eyes. He shook his head and walked towards the bag which lay almost packed. I drank my tea in silence looking out through the glass balcony door which now was open.

When I was finished, Jon was at my side picking me up in his arms bridal style.

"Jon, what .. what are you doing? Are you going to throw me off the balcony or something?"

He chuckled, the laugh coming straight through his throat, rough and entirely sexy.

"We are going to take a bath. We don't have much time to waste so we are going to do it together"

And then he kicked the bathroom door with his foot. Without even keeping me down on my feet, his lips came down devouring me.

Gently, my feet touched the ground as his hands started to unbutton the shirt I wore. When he tried to remove the shirt, it didn't come off. He broke the kiss to see what the matter was?
