I stirred in my sleep as I felt someone drawing circles on my bare stomach and opened my eyes.
"Morning." Adrian whispered huskily in my ear.
I just nodded my head in response and closed my eyes again to let his touch lull me back to sleep.
His hands were resting on my bare stomach and were slowly caressing the area under my breasts, tenderly.
"Wake up." he whispered softly.
I shook my head in negative and turned in his hold.
"It's been ages since I've slept like a baby. Please let me sleep and stay here." I mumbled in his chest.

"Oh. Did she try to fight?" I inquired.
"Mm hmm. But as you know she hasn't learned much so it was a futile attempt." he told.
"Let me know when she's able to talk. I'll call again. Take care, you guys." I said.
"Sure. You, too." he replied and ended the call.
I sighed loudly and checked the time to see that its one in the noon and hopped out of the bed.
I showered, brushed my teeth and changed into a mustard colored babydoll cotton dress with a brown crossbag and white converse before heading out.
