Chapter 245
Rowan's Point of View
A commotion down the hall pulled me back into the land of the living once more. I'd dozed back off after hanging up the phone with Lena. I lied on my side smiling listening to Abel and Rae and Jax coming in the front door. Their voices were so sweet and carried loudly down the hall. Jax chastised them saying mommy was asleep. They tried to keep it down but it was useless. I couldn't help but stifle a laugh. My little wrecking crew.
I was about to get up and go see if Jax needed help with the groceries when I heard him at the bedroom door.
"Damn, that's a sexy look." He blurted out, taking in my scrub top and panties, obviously.
"I was just going to rest for a minute before I took a shower, but passed out instead." I sat up and looked at him leaning against the door-jam, arms crossed over his chest.
Slowly, he sauntered into the bedroom and I sat up on my knees to meet him as he approached the bed. Jax slipped his hands into my hips as mine arms wrapped around his neck.
"Seems like you needed some rest after all. Guess I was right?" He arched his brows at me, smirking.
I pressed my nose against his and rolled my eyes playfully.
"Where are my little monsters?" I asked, not hearing the kids making much noise. Which meant they were most likely getting into something they shouldn't be getting into.
"I turned on a movie for them. Gave em' a snack. I got em' covered, don't worry, babe." Jax reassured me.
"Do you need help with the groceries." I offered, getting ready to put my scrub pants back on to help him, but he shook his head no.
"Already got it all." He grinned, clearly proud of all he'd accomplished.
"Well, look at you." I boasted. "Seems like you don't need me at all." I shot a fake pout his way.
Jax tucked a small strand of hair behind my ear, shaking his head. "I always need you." My lips found his effortlessly. It was like they knew where his were without me even having to look. There was a magnetic pull there that I hoped never went away.
Jax lifted his hands up and placed them on either side of my face, kissing me deeply. He pulled back, a satisfied little smirk etched on his lips. "I put Toy Story on for the kids, which means we've got a solid forty minutes before they yell for one of us... you wanna take this in the shower?" He nipped at my chin, then planted kisses on my neck before pulling back to look me in the eyes.
I lifted my scrub top off and tossed it onto the floor, giving Jax my answer. His eyes skated down over my body, taking in the exposed skin my bra and panties allowed. A shudder ran through my body because having Jax eyes on me was almost as good as having his hands against my skin. I tugged on the zipper to his sweat jacket, his eyes still taking me in as he bit his bottom lip. Warmth pooled in my lower stomach.
"You know that's some sexy lingerie to be wearing to work. Who you wearing that for?" He said teasingly, but I paused unzipping his jacket and smacked him in the stomach, a chuckle escaping my lips. He knows I hate when he jokes about that kind of stuff. It's not funny to me for some reason. Okay, it's a little funny but then it's not. I don't ever want him to think I want someone else because I'll never want anyone but him. "You finally leaving me for one of those white coat bastards?"
"Don't even start with me, Teller." He smirked and wrapped his arms around my waist, clutching my skin. "I don't need a reason to wear lingerie, but if you must know it's comfortable and I wear it for you, you ass." I laughed as he tried to kiss me on the lips and I dodge him. "I wear it just in case you want to come see me at work... and take me in one of the nurses lounges..."
