Dr. Allison Cameron has never been a morning person, nor will she ever be. Ever since she had become a doctor, all of her past relationships have ended before they really even started. Even those few that have made it to the next level soon ended after having to spend the morning with her. She couldn't help it. Even the thought of having to move from her comfortable spot in bed and having to get ready for another long day drove her insane. So to say, those relationships didn't want to see that side of her in the morning anymore. Resulting in another dead relationship.

Ever since she and Chase had made their "arrangement" a few months back, they have never woken up with each other in the morning. Every night they had their little get-togethers, depending on which house they were meeting at, the other would always leave before falling asleep.

After leaving the hospital, Chase drove them back to his apartment for a much needed good night's rest. The next morning, the alarm went off at a grueling seven-thirty. Chase quickly tried to shut it off before waking the other occupant in his bed. Unfortunately for both of them, it wasn't soon enough, for Cameron had already awakened.

"What the hell?" She asked as she rolled over to face Chase.

"Sorry. Go back to sleep, I'll be back in a little while." He said as he got up from the bed.

"Where are you going?" She asked groggily.

"Just out for a little run. Go back to sleep." He said as he leaned over to kiss her forehead. After changing into his running clothes, he grabbed his house keys and left, being careful not to wake Cameron again.

Thirty minutes later, Chase returned with a bag in one hand and coffee in the other. Not long after he arrived did Cameron emerge from the bedroom, looking like she was about to kill someone.

"I'm sorry about the alarm earlier. I always go for a run in the morning. It helps wake me up." He said as he offered her the other coffee.

She took it and took a drink of it before saying, "Why do you run in the morning? Especially this morning, we don't even have to go in today."

"I forgot to turn off my alarm last night. And since I was already up, I thought I might go ahead and take my run." He looked at her unpleasant face before smiling and saying, "You're defiantly not a morning person."

"Nope, which is usually the reason for all of my previous failed relationships. They always go running for the hills after waking up next to me once. Why haven't you begun running?"

"Well, unlike those other guys, I usually meet you not long after you wake up. And even then you still look like hell. No offence." He said hoping that didn't offend her.

"None taken. I know I'm not a morning person. I was never known to be one. Once when I was at the age where I cursed a lot, my mother had come in to get me up for school and I literally told her to "fuck off"."

"Oh my gosh." Chase laughed at her story. "What did she do."

"Well, after telling me to watch my language she left and didn't mention it again. She knows I don't wake-up so well in the mornings. So she kind of expected it."

"Well, I'm not much of a morning person myself, hence the running. I used to be pretty bad as well in the mornings. So one of my college friends suggested that I run in the mornings to wake me up. I took his advice and I became less cranky. Plus there is the added bonus of my well-toned body." He said as he began to flex his muscles. Cameron laughed at his pathetic way of trying to look buff.

"Please stop. Don't do that again." She said trying to get rid of the laughter.

"So, what are we going to do today?" Cameron asked once she controlled herself.

"I figured we'd sit around here until lunch and then head into town to grab some lunch. Then maybe take a walk around the park and stop by the movie rental store and rent a movie and come back here and watch it."

"That sounds good. I haven't been to the park in forever." Cameron said.

They continued to sit there and eat their breakfast in silence for a while. After finishing they cleaned up their trash and sat back down at their previous spots.

"So…" Chase said breaking the silence. "What should we do until we leave?"

Always the one with a plan, Cameron stood up and walked over to where Chase was sitting. She sat down on his lap, put her arms around his neck and kissed him. They sat there making out for a while before Cameron stood up and grabbed his hand and lead them back to the bedroom.

"Cameron are you sure we should do this?" He asked.

Cameron stopped and turned around to face him. "What's the difference between before and now? Before we weren't even dating, but now we are."

"Yes, but before it didn't mean anything. Now it does. Are you sure you want to go through with this?" Chase asked.

Cameron laughed to herself. She walked up to him and kissed him lightly. "Here's what I know. I know that I like you a lot and I know that you like me a lot too. I also know that this will mean something else. But what I also know is that I'm willing to cross it with you." She said as she looked into his eyes.

He looked back into hers and leaned in to kiss her. "Me too." Was all he said before they continued into the bedroom.
