The heat was stifling the next morning and it awoke me much too soon, I looked over at the alarm it was just barely eight. I picked my head up and looked at Jon, he was sleeping soundly. Even though he protested and fought sleep I knew it would take him over at some point. I also suppose having sex three times last night exhausted him. Not that I minded especially since he leaves today, I still had him for five hours before he had to head to the airport though. I laid my head back on his chest for a moment before I decided the heat was just too oppressive to deal with, I gingerly snuck out of bed and headed over to the switch for the air conditioner turning it on high as it would go. I peeked around the corner at Jon once again as he laid there covered in a thin layer of sweat, his hair matted to his face and gloriously naked. This wouldn't be a sight I would mind seeing every day from here on out. I inhaled deeply as I wondered how I ever had gotten so lucky to make him mine. I grabbed his t shirt off the floor and threw it over my head before I walked out into the kitchen to grab some water.

As I reached into the fridge I heard his phone go off and it startled me, I jumped a little banning my head. After a few choice words I picked it up looking at it, it was Joe of course. I laughed as I set it back down on the table. Cracking the bottle of water open and taking a sip, I turned around grabbing another bottle out of the fridge thinking Jon was going to want something to drink when he woke up too. Just as I was about to walk away my phone began to ring. I set the bottles down on the table grabbing it to see who it was, it was Joe once again. Thinking that it may have been more than a friendly wakeup call I answered.
"Hello"
"Hello Becca, its Joe."
"I know is everything alright?" I asked him.
"Yeah" he quickly said. "You have no idea how much easier having two numbers to call has made my life." He continued "I have no problem getting a hold of Jon now."
"Jon's still sleeping" I said, still not fully awake myself.
"Why, is he still sleeping?" He asked almost sounding on edge.
"He isn't getting up till nine." I explained "he almost has a hour left."
"What's his schedule" Joe asked as if he was making sure Jon had everything planned out.
"His flight leaves at two thirty, I don't know anything else." I said quickly my mind hell bent on the idea of jumping back into Jon's arms.
"Why isn't he driving?" He asked "Why would he fly?" He continued on "He should have just drove that makes no sense." He sighed "it just makes no sense for him to do that." I cut him off; I had to stop him before he ended up having a panic attack.
"It's going to be fine Joe." I tried to assure him "All that matters is he will get there."
"I leave in two hours, Becca, I already know what Colby's doing." He breathed in then out heavily. "I need to know what Jon is doing too." He sounded so uptight.
"I will tell him to call you." I said.
"Will you just wake him, so I can talk to him?" He sighed obviously I didn't give him the right answer.
"Joe, you get him the next six days." I sighed "let's learn to share; I will have him call you as soon as he gets up." There was a long pause; I had almost thought he hung up then I heard him clear his throat.
"I leave in less than two hours, if he doesn't call by five after nine, then I am calling back." He said sternly. I couldn't help but laugh as I shook my head.
"I will deliver you list of demands, Joe. If you are lucky he will follow them, bye for now" I said as I ended the call throwing my phone back onto the table. As I grabbed the water I headed back to the bedroom.

When I got to the doorway I looked in and Jon was laying there rubbing his eyes. I walked over to him handing him a bottle of water. I jumped into bed next to him as he sleepily sat up and chugged down half the bottle. He twisted the cap back on throwing it next to him as I laid back down resting my head on his chest. He wrapped an arm loosely around me pulling me closer.
"What time is it?" He asked sleepily his voice was very rough.
"You didn't oversleep babe it a little before eight thirty." I said as I nuzzled deeper into him.
"I been thinking." He paused for a moment before he continued to speak. "I think you should go with me today." I leaned up looking at him my eyes wide. "Just listen, you really should." He continued. "This will break you in and give you an idea of what to expect when you go to Europe with me." He was presenting his case obviously. "You can meet people now for the first time instead of just meeting them, then and you can see what it is like to be on the road." He smiled at me and I knew he really wanted me to go or else he wouldn't have bothered to ask. I just wasn't so sure I could; I already had the idea that the only thing I would like about being on the road is Jon.
"I don't know" I looked at him and I knew he wasn't ready to leave it at that. He laid there for a moment and I knew he had the speech pretty well planned but he was thinking of what to say next.
"I have a list of reasons" he said. "I don't have time to name them all so I will just go with the most important." He continued to talk "First of all cause I want you there." He said "Second of all cause you get to be with me." He stopped and his smile grew wider and those damn dimples made my heart race. "Third because you told me you loved me and I am pretty sure you also said you would do anything for me." His smile grew even wider I was pretty sure that he knew he had me. "And fourth because I don't think at this point in our relationship we should force ourselves to wait six days to have sex." He laughed and so did I, but then he continued again and the last reason and most possibly the most important because I love you and I am asking you too." I just gave him a look and I think it said it all even though I didn't say anything. He suddenly got excited and I knew even if I had wanted to say no, I couldn't have then. He grabbed me tightly and pressed his lips to mine and as he pulled away I knew I would have said yes a thousand times to see his eyes light up like that and see that smile on his face forever.

I tried to lighten up the mood a lot in this chapter. I have to say I actually liked writing the phone conversation between Becca and Joe. I Hope you all liked this chapter and as always thank you all so much for your reviews they really mean a lot!
