I wake up to the sound of two different phone alarms going off at the same time. I rub my eyes and search for mine, quickly turning the stupid alarm off. I let out a sigh as I take in my surroundings. Holy shit, it wasn't a dream. I'm really here, and I really spent the night with him. In his bed. I'm waking up next to him again. A huge grin overcomes my face and I turn to look at Nick, who's just as sleepy as I am. His face reciprocates mine as he sees me. Neither of us can really help it. We're both (I hope) overcome with joy from seeing each other in the same bed.
"Morning," he says in that sexy tired voice of his. Oh god… I almost want to jump him, but I'm way too tired.
"Morning," I reply, my eyes scanning over him quickly. His small, curly little chest hairs catch my attention. I smirk, holding back a giggle. "How'd you sleep?"
"Best in months." He flashes me that one smile that tells me he slept the best he has in months because of me. A shiver runs through me and I smirk, looking down at the bed. "I suppose we should get up now." His voice sounds like he really doesn't want to get up. I smile sheepishly and nod my head.
Once I'm out of bed, I make my way to his bathroom and get ready for the morning. It takes me about an hour, shower included. He does his usual morning ritual as well, taking a shower while I get dressed and eat. When we're both done and ready, his driver comes over and takes us both to work with my bodyguard sitting in the front. How did he…? Oh well.
No one is really surprised to see us arrive together at work. I think they all expected us to get back together while filming this movie. Either that or they thought we were already back together. They knew how good we were together while filming the first, so it was only a matter of time. But are we together? Or did we just hook up? I shake the thought from my head for now, keeping it stored at the back of my head for later. I'm definitely going to need to talk to him about that soon.
The rest of the day is uneventful. We film all our necessary scenes and keep any romantic interactions to our trailers. We come to an agreement to meet each other by his trailer when the filming day is over. When I walk over to him and see him standing there waiting me, a smile spreads across my face. Before I can stop myself, I throw my arms around him, resting the side of my cheek against his chiseled chest. He wraps his arms tightly around me, protecting me from anyone and anything. I feel so safe in his arms.
When I pull away, I have a permanent smile planted on my face. He just kinda has that effect on me. I open my mouth to speak, but he quickly interrupts me. "Will you come over again tonight? And every night, for that matter?" My heart starts pounding anxiously, and I bite my lip. I have to ask. I have to.
"Are we back together? Or are we just… Hooking up? Because I don't really want to do this with you if we're just hooking up."
"Do you even have to ask? Actually, allow me." He flashes me his golden smile and takes both of my hands in his, looking me straight in the eyes. "Jen, will you pretty please, with a large cherry on top that has a stem you'd love to tie with your tongue alone, be my girlfriend again?"
