"Doesn't change the fact that your an idiot." I tell Grayson "and don't call me babe."

He just gives me a smirk "Learn to take a compliment, babe."

Before I can retort back Grayson's mom cuts in between us "Ok you two enough. Honestly, you would think that you weren't married with how you two speak to each other." She scolds us

"Yeah well, I remember when you used to talk to me like that all the time." Grayson's dad pitches in and his mom smacks him on the arm

"Oh shut up," she whispers.

"Back to the matter at hand," Grayson clears his throat. "About a year ago I made a copy of the ledger and all our investors info so if something ever happened to the original..." He looks at me "Like my wife burning it." I stomp on his foot and he lets out a painful yelp as he lifts his now injured foot up to rub it he continues to speak "We would have an extra one."

I watch Coltons face and he rubs the bridge of his nose "I wish you would have told me but since you're taking over the company I will let you sort out this problem and fix it how I would."

"Yes, sir now if you wouldn't mind leaving so I can get to work." He nods towards his father and mom and they begin to walk out but I stop Grey by the arm and give her a smile "I hope that you and your husband will come over for dinner at some point instead of work-related calls."

She gives me a tight smile and nod before walking out the door along with her husband.

Grayson leads them out before closing the door and grinning at me.

"What?" I say cautiously.

"Oh, I was just thinking about how dirty your clothes look. I think I should help you take them off." He gives me a smile before coming towards me but at arm's length, I place my hand on his chest to keep him away.

"Um no, its five in the morning and I'm dirty as hell."

He doesn't stop his assault as he wraps his arms around my waist "I can think of a few more ways we can become dirty."

I let out a chuckle before pecking him on the cheek and getting out of his embrace. "Horny bastard" I mumble before turning away from him and walking up the stairs when I know he can still hear me I tell him "I'm going to take a shower and no you cannot join me. I believe you have some work you need to do." 

Grayson just grumbles and I think I hear something about that just being an excuse to get his parents out of the house.

I let out a laugh at him pouting like a boy I decided to give in 

"I think you might need a shower too," I tell him and he still makes no movement. I roll my eyes from him not catching on. 


"Come shower with me."


"I'd love to babe." He grins when I shoot daggers at him with my eyes.

"Keep calling me that and I'll take back my offer."
