I left the bathroom, hit the lights and fell face first onto the bed before wiggling my way under the covers. I took in a deep breath and sighed as I closed my eyes and fell into a peaceful slumber.
Banging interrupted that peaceful slumber. I sat up with my eyes still closed and didn't move. I was still kind of half asleep and didn't know whether to lie back down or stay sitting up.
"Keela? Wake up!" Alec's voice called out.
I groaned and moved the covers off of me so I could stand up.
"Let me in!" Alec shouted again then pounded on the door some more.
I held my hands out as I moved towards the door feeling my way along the walls until my head bumped the door, making me stumble back a little.
"I'm comin', hold bloody on!" I shouted, annoyed.
I blindly searched for the handle of the door and found it after a few seconds. I pulled the door open and looked upwards to meet Alec's blue eyes. He was casually leaning against the door frame with his arms folded across his chest. He looked like a vision, a vision of sex.
"Well, aren't you a sight for sore eyes." He smirked.
I could only imagine how my face and hair looked.
"Bite me," I snarled before turning and walking back towards the bed and checked the clock on one of the nightstands, it read thirteen minutes past four in the morning.
I heard a sharp intake of breath just as the light flicked on. I crawled on the bed and got back under the covers and rested my head on my pillow.
"What are you wearing?" Alec voice asked.
I thought about it for a second then opened my eyes.
"Uh... a t-shirt," I replied.
"Is it mine?" he asked.
I didn't know if he sounded mad or amused.
"Yeah," I mumbled.
He was silent for a minute then I heard items hit the floor. I knew he was undressing and it made me tense a little. I wanted to turn around and look at him but I mentally scowled at myself and made sure I stayed in the position I was in.
"Why are you wearing my t-shirt to bed?" he asked.
I shrugged and closed my eyes again. "I couldn't find me shorts or tank top so I just picked this up. I'll get you a new one if that's what has your knickers in a twist."
Alec snorted. "I don't need a new one, I've about ten more of them with me. I was just curious as to why you were wearing my clothing to bed. You do hate me after all."
"I hate you, not your t-shirt."
This made Alec laugh as he moved the covers aside so he could get in after he turned off the light.
"Jesus," he breathed.
I groaned.
"What now?" I asked.
"I can see your ass," he replied.
I instantly turned on my back and turned my head to glare at him. "Don't look!"
He held his hands up. "I can't miss it, it's right there."
I narrowed my eyes and he saw.
He rubbed his temples. "Forget I said anything, go back to sleep."
I rolled my eyes and noticed then that he was in just his boxer briefs.
I widened my eyes. "You cannot sleep next to me like that!" I said and pointed my finger to his body.
What the hell happened to my pyjama trousers condition?
He looked down at himself before looking back up at me with a raised eyebrow. "I usually sleep naked, I figured you wouldn't want that-"
"Damn right I wouldn't!'" I snapped.
"Which is why I am wearing these," he continued and gestured to his boxers.
"Just turn off the light."
Alec bowed to me just before he turned off the light. I gave him the finger to which he laughed at. When the light clicked off he moved back towards the bed and it dipped down on his side when he got onto it.
He lay down and pulled the covers over himself, tugging them away from me a little. I tugged them back; he pulled them a little which just caused me tug on them again.
This went on for about twenty seconds until he laughed and said, "Stop taking all the covers!"
I growled. "Get stuffed, I was here first."
"This is our bed, not just yours."
I huffed. "Just stay on your side. Don't cross over onto my side and I won't murder you in your sleep, okay?"
I could practically feel Alec's grin radiate from him and it pissed me off.
"Understood."
"Good," I hissed and turned on my side, tugging the blanket with me.
He snorted and didn't tug on the blanket again and that made me relax. It was warm as hell but I still needed to cover myself with the covers, I couldn't sleep with nothing covering me.
I thought I would have been unable to sleep half naked with Alec next to me but surprisingly I hardly even thought about it as I closed my eyes again.
When I woke up it was because wind on my face stirred me. "Close the window," I mumbled, snuggling deeper into my pillow.
I heard a groan just as I felt my pillow move. I furrowed my eyebrows but didn't open my eyes. I groaned a little when I felt movement between my legs and gasped in alarm when something hard pressed against me... there.
I opened my eyes and screamed when I saw a face that wasn't Storm's there. The eyes on the face snapped open just as hands that were already around me tightened.
"It's me, Alec!"
I stopped struggling and screaming and looked to the face again. I recognised him now and relief instantly flooded me, I thought I’d had a one night stand or something.
Relief left when Alec moved and a groan left my lips again. He looked at me, then down to our intertwined bodies and let a smile take over his face.
"Couldn't help yourself could you, kitten?"
I knew his leg was between my legs and it was brushing up against me. I've always been sensitive; the littlest of touches always got me going, but I did my best not to let Alec know that.
