{Aurora's POV}
When I woke my head was on Jackson's chest and I felt his arms wrapped around my waist. He was fast asleep and I took a moment to just take it all in. This wonderful, respectful man is my mate. Forever and always. We were destined to be together and I honestly couldn't be happier.
For years I ran and I hid. I shielded myself from the outside worlds and the risk that was within it. I never had a true home, but now I know where my home is. Where ever Jackson is, and for some reason I felt it was the same for him. These past months for me were life changing. Here I was thinking that i'd never love again, or I'd never find a home or family again.
Before I realized it, my hand was tracing the contour of his cheek. I went to pull it away when his darted up catching mine, startling me.
"Don't stop." He said with his eyes still closed and I chuckled.
"You're a dork." I said moving my hand from his and sitting up as he groaned in protest.
"It was relaxing." He mumbled.
"Too bad." I said but in reality I was slightly embarrassed he caught me.
That seemed so... flirtatious of me. Im never the mushy gushy type. What has gotten into me?
"What time is it?" He asked and I looked over.
"Ten." He sighed and finally opened his eyes.
"I got a bit for I need to go to my office and finish paperwork." He said and reached over pulling my arm causing me to fly back to his chest.
"Jackson." I groaned and he chuckled in response.
"Just a few more minutes." He said and I rolled my eyes and gave in laying my head onto his chest.
"I like this." He said, "I mean mornings like this." He added and I smiled.
"Me too." I replied.
"Guess what is in two days." Jackson said.
"I don't know, what is?"
"You didn't even try." He retorted.
"Because I don't know." I bit back and his chest rumbled with laughter.
"It's Halloween." He replied and I groaned.
"Halloween is boring." I said and he let out a fake gasp.
"Not when you throw the best Halloween parties there is." He replied and I looked up at him.
"You throw Halloween parties?" He cocked an eyebrow.
"Are you saying I can't throw a Halloween party?" He asked and I shook my head.
"No, I'm saying you're not fun." I replied with a smirk and he scoffed.
