I woke up the next morning exhausted from the long night before, henry was over for a while and we had tea and caught up, then we all watched a movie together.

I run my fingers over Aaron's healed tattoo on his heart and kiss it lightly,

He shuffles slightly and tightens his arms around my waist while I'm laying on top of him,

With his eyes closed, he kisses the tattoo on my collarbone area

"Good morning" I whisper, still not fully awake

"Morning," he says half asleep with that deep morning voice that I adore

"It's five am so you should probably get ready for work," I say while lightly kissing his cheek

I'm so exhausted from the sleepless night I had, but I have to get up for work in an hour so there's no point in going back to sleep,

Aaron always goes in to work at least an hour before everyone else, I guess that's just in his workaholic CEO nature,

"Why are you awake get some sleep Vanessa...you don't have to be at work for another hour at least," Aaron says gripping my chin with a frown,

He's such a cutie

I kiss his cheek and cuddle close to him, his body heat is so addicting,

"I can't sleep without you, so I might as well get up now, I can go make you some breakfast while you shower," I say nuzzling my face in the crook of his neck

I can feel him shaking his head "Vanessa you had like four hours of sleep...go back to bed"

"What's an hour more of sleep going to do? Plus like I said I can't sleep without you, my insomnia somehow goes away with you by my side but comes back when you leave, " I frown looking at him

He has on a lazy smile as he tucks a stray piece of hair behind my ear "You're so cute"

"I look gross in the mornings be quiet," I say hiding my face in his neck once more,

"You are absolutely beautiful, always, so that's bullshit" he scoffs

I thread my fingers through his hair slightly massaging it "you're the cute one out of the two of us" I mumble

One second I'm on top of him then the next he's hovering over me, caging me in between the bed and him

"How do you have so much energy this early in the morning...geez" I shake my head

"I'm not cute you little brat," he says slightly biting my ear

"Yes you are...you're the cutest" I tease kissing him all over his face
