Well one review to have Johnny date Kate and one not to. I don't which direction to lean in, so for this chapter, Kate won't be mentioned. Review and let me know, if you want Johnny and Ava to date others or not…….

Johnny opened the door quietly from the driveway he'd seen that the lights were dim meaning that the kids were in bed.

Slinging his dinner jacket over his shoulder, he moved silently down the hallway to his room. Closing his door quietly, he tossed his jacket on his bed, turning on his bedside lamp. He jumped in shock, when he saw who was in his bed.

Under his covers sleeping was Ava. Her hands curled under her head. She looked so peaceful sleeping in his bed. Johnny debated whether or not to wake her up and ask her what she was doing there.

Telling himself he wasn't in the mood to talk, he strode into the bathroom closing the door. Stripping all his clothes, he moved to open the door, remembering that Ava was in his bed, therefore he couldn't sleep in the nude like he normally did.

Reluctantly, he pulled his boxer shorts on, quickly he brushed his teeth and flicked off the bathroom light.

He moved towards the bed, Ava was on the left side more in the middle of the bed, than on her side, hogging both pillows. She usually slept like this when we were together, curled up so sweet, I just couldn't bear to wake her, but then I always had a good reason to wake her up.

Shaking his head, he pulled back the bedcovers back and climbed into bed next to her. Moving next to her, he leaned over her and turned out the lamp next to her.

His clock glared 12:23 at him, moonlight filtered through the blinds, highlighting the sweet curves that his blankets hinted at.

Exhaling deeply, Johnny put his head on the pillow that Ava was hogging. Closing his eyes, he lay there thinking about the past month and how his life had changed so much.

Earlier that night

Ava sat on the beach staring at the moon, wondering why she was thinking of Johnny so much lately. Her mind was consumed with images of him and memories of him then. How they'd been together, fit so perfectly and yet they'd broken up.

She had been happy that way until that dream had woken her up to how she really felt.

Deciding to make the first move, she'd decided to wait in Johnny's bed to talk to him. Climbing up from the sand, she walked back inside. By then it was 10:30, the kids were in bed. Bradin was out with friends to be home by 1. Susannah had gone to bed already and Jay was out with Erika. The coast was clear.

She walked down the hallway to her room and changed into her soft silk shorts and matching camisole. Padding lightly down the hallway, she walked to Johnny's room and climbed beneath the covers. Turning out the lamp, she snuggled up to his pillow, inhaling the sexy musk that was Johnny's scent.

Putting her head down on the pillows, her mind swam with all the thoughts that threatened to consume her. Closing her eyes, she let go of the chaos in her mind and fell into a deep oblivion.

Johnny looked down at her serene features in the moonlight, he gently traced her cheek down to her lips, she sighed in her sleep.

Johnny put an arm around her in his attempt to get comfortable, closing his eyes, he joined Ava in deep oblivion.
