Trapped in a Zoom Call ↬ Jason Waud

Aurora takes a deep breath, as she slowly opens her eyes. From under the curtains she could see the sun shining, making her smile. She looks over her shoulder to see Jason still deep asleep, making a blush rise up the cheeks. Last night, they spend hours just talking and making out, but mainly making out. She reaches forward for her phone, which she had put on the nightstand and check the time, to see it was 9am. She feels movement coming up next to her, causing her to look down and see Apollo crawling up towards her, his tail wagging happily.

"Hey there." Aurora scratches the puppy behind his ears, making turn around on to his back, exposing his belly. "Aren't you the most handsome little boy."

"And here I thought I was special." Jason breaths out, his voice husky from sleep, startling Aurora a little bit.

"Yes, but Apollo is the real reason I'm here." She muses, making him gasp in false hurt.

"Damn, Rory. That hurt my ego." He says, as he kisses her at the nape of the neck, a blush burning up on her cheeks. "Let's go have breakfast, I'm starved."

"Same." Aurora giggles as he let's go of her waist and sits up, making her sit up as well. Apollo stands up on his four paws before running towards the door, already sensing the two planing to leave the room. Aurora gets out of the bed, before turning around to look at Jason.

"You look cute in my hoodie." Jason smirks, making her roll her eyes as another blush tints her cheeks.

"Shut up." She grumbles as he chuckles and gets out of bed.

"Let's go." He says, as he takes her hand and leads her out of the room, Apollo running out behind them. As they walk into the dinning room, Jaide, Adam and Joe are already there.

"Well good morning lovebirds." Joe says teasingly, as he looks up at them.

"Good morning Joe." Aurora says happily.

"Since when are you awake this early?" Jason asks, making Joe shrug.

"Hey, Rora." Jaide greets her happily, making Aurora let go of Jason's hand and walks up to the older sister, giving her a hug before sitting down next to her. "How are you? Hope Jason didn't kick you too much during the night."

"No, he was alright." Aurora hums as a small blush reappears one her cheeks.

"So, what's today's plan?" Adam asks as he picks up Apollo and pets him.

"Well breakfast first. And then take Apollo on his walk." Jason says, before looking at Aurora. "And then we'll see."

"Is this a plan between you and Aurora, or are we all invited?" Joe asks, as he looks between Aurora and Jason, a smirk forming on his lips as he look they're giving each other.

"I mean if you guys want to." Jason asks with a shrug. "And if that's okay with Aurora."

"I don't mind, but I think Cat would want to come." Aurora admits, making Adam perk up happily at the mention of his girlfriend.

"We could go pick her up after you guys walk Apollo, and then maybe go to the lake." Jaide suggests, making the rest all agree.

"Okay, while you two have breakfast and walk Apollo, Adam and I are so watching the Office." Joe says, as he stands up.

"Oh, yes. Let's go." Adam exclaims happily as he follows Joe.

"I'll leave you two." Jaide says with a knowing smile, before leaving the two. Jason moves from his spot on the other side of the table, and walks up to her, leaning down to peck her lips.

"What do you want for breakfast?" He asks, making her shrug.

"Anything edible, would be great." She giggles softly, making him chuckle.

"Okay, I can work with that."
