CHAPTER THIRTY

Website where all photos of all outfits mentioned is on my profile.

Because I was sober when I went to sleep I wake up at 755. While I'm surprised that I'm awake that early I realise why when the heavy weight of Jax's entire torso on my stomach is what's woken me up.

Pushing against him I manage to move him back onto his side of the bed, and carefully slide out of the bed. Ringing the front desk I order room service breakfast for the three rooms to be delivered at 815 and cancel the wake-up call for our room.

Walking quietly through the room I go into the bathroom and take a few minutes to brush my hair and teeth before heading back to the bedroom and crawling back into bed by Jax. He's not quiet snoring but the snuffly breaths he's taking are enough to make me start to giggle. Unfortunately that starts the bed shaking and he wakes up with a started "Wha?"

"Sorry, you were kinda snoring but not." I giggle as he rubs his face with his hands.

"I don't snore." He sounds outraged that I'd suggest it.

"You do so!" I tell him, still giggling.

He turns over in the bed to face me and shrugs "Okay so maybe I do snore."

I nod "You do."

"How are you doing today?"

I smile "I'm okay, and I am sorry about yesterday. Everything about it was embarrassing for both me and you."

Jax shakes his head "No it wasn't. They're not going to worry. You gave the basic information needed for the guys to understand why you behaved the way that you did. And if anyone has a problem they can come to me and I'll kick their ass." He says emphatically.

"Okay." I move across the bed a little and worm my way into his arms, my nose brushing his chest when he inhales.

"What's the time?" Jax asks draping his arm over my side.

"Just after 8, breakfast'll be here in about 10 minutes. I'm just waiting for the angry phone call from Al about her wake up call." Sure enough just as I finish speaking my phone chirps from the bedside table.

I twist out of Jax's arms and pick it up, flicking it open and grinning at Al's name splashed across the tiny screen.

"Morning sunshine." I say after accepting the call and pressing the phone to my ear.

"Why did some overly cheerful person just ring me and say it was my wake-up call?" Al sound snappy and tired and for a half-second I wonder how late it was that she actually went to sleep.

"Cause breakfast will be there in a few minutes and we're going shopping silly!" I reply while Jax drags his arms from under me and heads to the bathroom.

"Oh right. How could I forget?" I hear Al suddenly cheer up a lot and a second later there's a muffled thump and a 'shit what was that for?'

"Right, well I'll leave you and Juice to whatever it is that was. Breakfast will be at your door at 815."

"K, thanks S." Al hangs up the phone and I shake my head slightly.

Jax comes back out of the bathroom as there's a soft knock on the door accompanied by a voice calling "Room Service."

Jax tugs his jeans on and points at me "You stay there." I hear him walk through the room to the door and open in. The room service trolley is almost completely silent as it glides across the floor, only the gentle clink of glass and the smell of coffee give away its presence.

Jax rolls the cart through to the bedroom and sets it beside the bed within arm's reach before dropping his jeans and climbing back in beside me and smirking at me "You don't have to worry about food in the sheets so I'm taking advantage."

I poke my tongue out at him "You know me to well."

Jax leans over and lifts the covers off the two plates, handing the one that's obviously mine to me before he pours coffee and juice and picks up his own plate. I can't help but laugh and his raised eyebrow doesn't help the giggles.

"What?"

"Just you." I reply. The look doesn't get any less confused "If someone had told you 6 months ago that you'd be having breakfast in bed with me, in a hotel in LA what would you have thought?"

Jax grins "I would have asked for some of what they were smoking."

"Exactly." I stick my fork into one of the tiny breakfast sausages that are on my plate and pop it in my mouth chewing thoughtfully. "Hey baby?"

Jax turns to look at me and sets his fork down "Yeah?"

"You're going to have to meet Patrick at some stage." I say, thinking through the list of stuff I have to get sorted.

"Who the fuck is Patrick?" Jax snaps frowning.

"My lawyer. You know that. Calm down." I rest a hand on his forearm and squeeze it gently. "He'll have to witness signatures on wills and shit."

Jax sighs "Do we really have to talk about that again?"

I nod "Yes, cause I need you to understand I was serious. I need to have things in place if anything happens to me, and so do you."

Jax sighs again, his shoulders rising and falling before he looks at me "Okay okay. You're not going to give up on this I can see that. Talk to this Patrick guy and get him to come to Charming."

I lean over carefully not moving the trays and kiss Jax on the cheek "Thank you."

He just shakes his head "The things I do."

The rest of breakfast is spent in rather subdued conversation. We decide that with the shopping the girls are bound to want to do today we'll have to give them a finishing time before we start or we'll be there all day and not get back to Charming till tomorrow.

"I do have to warn you before we go that they have both already decided we have to go to Agent Provocateur." I tell Jax as I sip my coffee.

"What's that?" He asks, setting his empty cup on the cart beside the plates.

"It's a lingerie store. I wanted to warn you so you didn't freak out." I smile "No 'accidental' flashes this time though, I promise."

Jax nods "Don't have a choice do I?"

I shake my head "Nope. It's on Rodeo Drive and Al decided that she wanted to spend today there."

"Oh well." He seems remarkably relaxed about the thought of another lingerie store but a look at him shows that he's smirking happily.

"What?" I ask, finishing my coffee and handing him the cup.

"Well, does that mean I get to pick stuff for you?" He wiggles his eyebrows at me and I giggle.

"If you want to come in there then I guess so." I throw the blankets off my legs and get out of bed, collect the clean clothes for today and head into the bathroom.
