Fix You

Chapter 2

Adam smiled as he walked into his bedroom, carrying a tray of breakfast, and saw Fiona asleep, curled up under the covers. He carefully set the tray down on the foot of the bed and crawled onto the bed. He kissed her forehead softly before moving to her temple, then her cheek until he finally kissed her lips.

She moaned softly as she stirred and kissed him back automatically.

"Morning, princess," he whispered as he moved took kiss her neck.

She let out another soft moan as he kissed, licked and nibbled the skin on her neck. She reached up to run her hands through his hair, which had thankfully begun growing longer after he cut it all off a few months before.

He pulled back to look at her, a small smile playing on his lips. Her eyes finally fluttered open. "Good morning," she said. "That was some way to wake up."

He smiled wider and kissed her forehead. "I brought us breakfast."

She looked at the tray on the foot of the bed then back to him. "I'm not hungry," she told him, wrapping her arms around his neck.

He kissed her lips and reached back to unlink her arms from around him. "You need to eat." He moved off of her and grabbed the tray, bringing it to her.

She didn't take her eyes off of him as he sat next to her. He had to smile, he knew that look. "Be good," he said, taking a fork-full of the scrambled eggs on the plate and holding them out to her.

She raised one eyebrow as she ate the eggs. He smiled and silently offered another fork of eggs to her.

She shook her head, instead of eating. She took the fork out of Adam's hand and put it on the tray. "I told you, I'm not hungry. Not for food, at least."

He laughed as she put her arms around him. "Be good," he told her again.

"I'm always good."

"He's alive!" Eli said, raising his arms above his head as Adam and Fiona walked into The Dot. Adam smirked as they sat down at the table across from Eli and Clare.

They both dreaded leaving the comfort of Adam's bed on the freezing December day, but they'd promised Eli and Clare that they'd have lunch with them.

"You owe me ten bucks," Clare told her boyfriend, holding her hand out.

Eli rolled his eyes and pulled his wallet out of his back pocket.

"Nice," Adam said as Eli handed Clare two bills.

Eli shrugged. "I didn't think you'd actually make it out of the house."

"You didn't think they'd make it out of the room," Clare said.

Adam rolled his eyes. "I'm gonna get us some food," he told Fiona before kissing the side of her head. He walked to the counter and ordered Fiona's favorite coffee, as well as a Coke for himself and two cheeseburgers.

After a moment, Eli joined him at the counter. "Good to see you outside, man."

Adam just shook his head. "Come on, give me a break. I haven't seen her for almost a month."

"Ok, ok. How long do you think you guys are gonna stay?"

"Why?"

"Me and Clare have another bet, since you came. If you make it over an hour, I'll get my ten dollars back."

Adam smiled and looked back at the table, where Fiona and Clare were now deep in conversation. Fiona caught his eye after a moment and winked. His breath caught in his chest. the things she did to him without even trying.

"Sorry, dude," Adam said, looking back at his friend. "Looks like you might be out twenty."
