Forever My Always

Chapter 15

"Morning!" Alexa jumped on Harry's back and kissed his cheek nearly frightening him to death as he checked on the eggs he was frying in the kitchen.

"Jesus Christ! Are you always this perky in the morning?" Harry grabbed one of her legs to keep her from falling off of him.

Alexa slid down his backside safely on to the floor and peaked around his broad shoulders to see what he was cooking. "Mostly, yes. I take it you are not a morning person?" She giggled and kissed his shoulder as the prince groaned.

"How do you like your eggs?" Harry turned to look over his shoulder to find Alexa rummaging around through his cabinets to find the plates. She was wearing his favourite hoodie and her pajama shorts, but as she stretched up on her tippy toes to grab something on the top shelf his hoodie rode up revealing her exposed abdomen. His eyes were immediately drawn to her backside, enjoying the view he was witnessing.

"Uh, over easy." She grabbed a couple of plates and set them down on the counter. "Would you like some coffee or tea?" Alexa turned around to catch her boyfriend still checking her out. His head sprang back down towards the eggs attempting to hide his guilty look as he had been caught.

"Don't worry about it. I can make it." He paused. "You just sit down and relax." Harry kindly offered. It was easier for him to make it instead of explaining to Alexa where everything was.

Alexa walked over to him and pulled herself up to sit on the counter beside him. "Ok, babe." She crossed her legs and swayed them back and forth while watching the prince do his own thing in the kitchen as they made small talk.

Harry handed her a cup of green tea with a few drops of milk, just the way she liked it. "Mmm, thank you." Alexa's hands wrapped around the warmth of the cup and took a sip, staring into his eyes over the brim of her cup. Her legs opened for Harry to come closer, trapping him in as she wrapped them around his waist.

The prince was all smiles seeing his girlfriend sitting on his kitchen counter in his sweater comfortably sipping her cup of tea. He longed to have someone to wake up to again in the mornings and having Alexa her in his home filled that void. He tucked a piece of her messy morning hair behind her ear and leaned in to capture her soft lips, tasting the tea that dripped off of them.

"I think I forgot to say good morning beautiful." His lips broke apart for a second as they muttered those words.

"Mmm. I like my mornings with you." Alexa's lips spread into a smile before pulling Harry back in for another kiss before her phone started ringing.

"Is that you?" Harry tried to distract her further and keep Alexa right where he wanted her to be.

"It's work." She pressed up against his lips before trying to break away, but Harry was relentless and not in the mood to stop.

"Can it wait?" He wasn't entirely asking Alexa, he was telling her not to answer the call.

"Mmhmm." Her lips were back on Harry's without a second thought.

The phone continued to ring for the second time as Alexa breathed out with a heavy sigh between their kisses. She placed her hands on his bare chest and pulled away from him as the prince groaned with frustration. "Sorry, but they wouldn't be calling me for the second time when they know I am off unless it is urgent."

He pursed his lips together and nodded silently with a sense of understanding. Stepping away to the side Harry helped her climb off the counter and run to grab the phone. Alexa picked it up and came back to place a soft kiss to his lips before heading back into his bedroom to take the call.
