Just Play Along

One Hundred Five & One Hundred Six

PART ONE HUNDRED FIVE

*Jess’ POV*

“Turn it off,” I moaned, the familiar buzzing of an alarm clock waking me up.

“Now this is more like it,” Aston whispered, kissing my neck as he wrapped his arms tighter around my bare waist. We were cuddled up in his hotel bed, not an inch separating the pair of us.

“Turn it off…” I complained again.

“Fine dragon lady,” Aston replied with a laugh, releasing me with one hand and switching off the alarm clock.

As he did this I twisted around in his grip so I was facing him, a cute smile playing on his lips as he looked down at me.

“I missed this,” I whispered, leaning up and stealing a kiss.

As I was about to pull away Aston trailed a hand up my back to my neck, holding my head in place. I could feel my body tingling to my toes as he gave me a passionate morning kiss.

“I missed this more,” he grinned, finally pulling away.

I shook my head at him, cuddling into his chest and wrapping my arms tight around his waist. “I’m never letting go!” I declared with a giggle.

“Well you’re going to have to, gotta get up and meet the boys for breakfast. And then studio. Are you coming with or what?”

“Yeah,” I replied, “Marvin said I could do work in the corner while you guys do your thing.”

“Brilliant,” Aston said, his hands wrapping tightly around me as we lay in bed.

“I don’t wanna get up though.”

“Well we’ll be late if one of us doesn’t hop in the shower soon.”

“Ten more minutes of cuddles,” I whined, “We can shower together.”

“Ah there’s my problem-solver,” Aston laughed, kissing the top of my head. “Jess is sooo soppy these days.”

“Shut up,” I laughed, “Or I’ll go shower now.”

“Lips are zipped shut!”

“Good,” I said, closing my eyes.

Aston was right though, I was being unbelievably soppy. It was just being around him again, I couldn’t not be, no matter how hard I tried. Which was so unlike me.

“Shower time,” Aston mumbled after our ten minutes had lapsed, “Up you get Rego.”

I let him push me up off of his chest and then drag me off the bed towards the shower. It as a fairly large walk-in shower, and somehow we managed to get cleaned up while sharing, not wasting too much time.

Once dressed and bundled up for the day we wandered downstairs with our things, meeting the other boys in the restaurant for breakfast.

“Ohh I forgot about Valentine’s,” I exclaimed as I looked around the room. It was decked out with roses and all sorts of hanging pink love hearts.

“Don’t expect too much,” Aston frowned, “Didn’t really know I should be planning something for today.”

“I don’t expect anything,” I told him, grabbing a seat.

“Still…”

“Don’t worry!” I laughed, kissing his cheek gently. “If you really want to do something we can figure it out, otherwise I’m ok just hanging around your room tonight.”

“Well we should go out for dinner at least,” Aston shrugged.

“I’ll see if I can find something while you’re working.”
