Kaylah – WTF! JUST GET THE TAMPONS AND LEAVE!!!!!!

Kaylah – Wait…get some liners too.

Jesse – You got it, babe.

I slip my phone back into my pocket and grab it all anyway. Kaylah can be a little indecisive at times and I don’t want to be accused of limiting her options. My girl deserves it all.

I put it all down in front of the cash register and the woman smiles at me and she rings it all up. “Are these for your girlfriend?” she asks, amused.

“Well, they’re certainly not for me.”

She laughs. “First time?”

“Is it that obvious?”

She looks over the selection before us. “You did a very thorough job,” she commends before nodding towards the aisle filled with candies and chocolate bars. “Do yourself a favor and grab some of that, a carton of ice cream, a few trashy magazines, and some painkillers.”

Twenty minutes later, I’m walking out of the store with four full grocery bags and feeling pretty fucking proud of myself. I get back to Kaylah’s house and barely get through the door before she’s tearing the bag with her tampons out of my arms and rushing off to the bathroom.

I walk down into her room and dump all the bags on her bed before heading back to the kitchen and pouring her a glass of water. I drop a few ice cubes in when I hear Kaylah calling out. “What the fuck is all this stuff?” she laughs. “There’s enough here to last me until next Christmas.”

I grin to myself and by the time I finish in the kitchen, she’s stepping out of the bathroom with the boxes of tampons in her hand. Kaylah beams at me. “Just curious, how did you decide on super plus?”

“Umm…isn’t it obvious?”

Kaylah shakes her head before walking back toward her room. “You’re such a guy.” She pushes through her door and I hear the excited gasps as she goes through the bags on her bed. Not a second later, she comes running out of her room making me wish I’d have picked up the sports mode ones.

Kaylah reaches me and throws herself across the couch, coming down in my arms with a beaming smile. “You’re the best, Jesse. Thank you.”

She kisses me deeply and I hold her tight feeling as though, at this moment, I’ve got everything that I’ll ever need.

Chapter 10

Kaylah

Jesse pulls me in hard against his chest and the movement has me waking way earlier than I had planned. We were out all night partying at Tyson’s place and only just got back two hours ago. I expected Jesse would sleep well into the afternoon, but here we are at 6 am and I’m about ready to kill him.

“Morning, Tiger,” Jesse murmurs in his sleepy morning voice.

I roll in his arms and hook my leg over his hip while snuggling deeper into his chest. “No,” I grumble, shaking my head and refusing to open my eyes. “It’s nowhere near morning.”

Jesse’s arm curls around me until his hand is firmly grabbing my ass. His chest rumbles with a soft laugh and I drift back off to sleep, absolutely loving being in his arms.

I wake an hour later to the soft sounds of the TV and reluctantly peel my eyes open to find Jesse sitting up against the headboard of his bed with his PlayStation controller in his hand. “How’d you sleep?” he asks, not taking his eyes off the TV screen.

I stretch my arms out as a yawn rips through me. “Like a baby,” I say through my yawn.

“You?”

“Couldn’t.”

My brows furrow as I grab my pillow and wrap my arms around it. “Why not?”

He shrugs his shoulders. “I don’t know. Probably had something to do with the girl who was sprawled out, diagonally across the bed.”

I hold back a smile. “I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’m an angel to sleep with.” Jesse scoffs, clearly not on the same page with my comments. I nudge him with my toes. “You could have just pushed me over.”

“I tried,” he laughs. “You just kept coming back.”

I grin up at him. “What can I say? You’re irresistible to me, even in my sleep.”

A cocky smirk crosses his lips as he busily presses the buttons on his controller, deep in concentration. I roll my eyes, loving how much he likes to have his ego stroked…and other things.

I grab my phone and start scrolling through my Instagram and Facebook, not nearly ready to get out of bed. Photos from last night’s party are appearing on nearly every other post and I laugh as I scroll through them. There are pictures of Tora and Nate celebrating after shutting down Phoenix yesterday, Jesse being an idiot and flying Superman-style off Tyson’s roof, Puck and Courtney making out and Brylee dancing up against Tyson, though I don’t know what that’s about.
