Chapter 17.

My alarm scared me awake, practically making me jump. I reached on my bedside table and switched off the alarm in my phone.

Zac snored peacefully in my ear his arms wound tightly around me the way we fell asleep. When I tried to get out of Zac's arms, he pulled me tighter towards him and he groaned.

"I've got to get ready for work, Zac."

"Hmm don't go," he responds, his voice raspy, laced with sleep.

I turn around, still in his arms until I face him. I reach my hand up and weave them onto his hair and he moans his appreciation.

"Not all of us have the luxury of not working, Zac," I teased.

"Hey! I work," he laughs with his eyes closed. I leaned into him, closing my eyes and letting my lips touch his softly.

"Zac?"

"Yes?" he responds.

"I need to pee," I say, and he chuckles.

"Sorry," he laughs and softens his grip around me.

"Thank you." I give him a quick peck before I remove myself from his arms and head to the bathroom. While I'm there I apply a quick layer of makeup and brush out my hair, making a quick braid down the back. Once, I've decided I looked somewhat cute I head out of the bathroom and back into my room. Zac remained where he was in my bed and I quickly got dressed, wearing jeans and a turtleneck black top and slipping into my brown loafers. I checked the weather report and it said that it was going to be cold today with an overcast and a chance of rain. I slipped on my grey coat and dark grey scarf and grabbed my bag.

"Bye, Isaac," I whisper and lean down to hip and kiss his cheek, before I could pull back, he grabs me and flips me onto the bed, and I squeal.

"Zac!" I laugh.

"Shh! You're going to wake up the whole neighbourhood," he laughs.

"I need to have breakfast before work," I say, but make little effort to get up even though I need to get going if I want to make it before my shift begins.

He kisses me softly, let his lips softly travel from my lips and across my jaw and down my neck. I close my eyes and enjoy the sensation of his lips across my skin

"You have so much clothes on," he chuckles.

I smile but keep my eyes closed.

"I need to start walking to work if I'm going to make my shift," I complain, but hum when he kisses below my ear.

He pulls back and up.

"I'll drive you," he says and jumps up.

I get up myself and Zac gets dressed in his clothes from yesterday, slipping his shoes on.

"Are you sure?" I ask. I didn't want to impose. It would be nice to be driven to work so I don't have to rush in the morning. With him driving I still had an hour and a half to kill before I needed to be at work.

"Of course," he opens my bedroom door. "Would you like a coffee?"

"Yes, please."

"Let's go then," he smiles just before my door and exits it and I follow pursuit.

We head to his car and jump inside. I smile when I get into his car, remembering the night before and his fingers on me. A hot wave runs across my skin and I felt the heat ride up my neck. I peak at Zac next to me and he has a small smile creeping on his face.

"A lot of great memories in here," he says, and chuckles and I laugh with him.

He drove out of the driveway quickly, driving to a destination I did not know.
