Greyson

Chapter Thirteen

"Angel?" I stirred hearing a soft voice, grumbling and nestling myself so I was cosier. "Baby wake up." The voice continued and I grumbled an inaudible mutter. 

It wasn't until I heard a soft chuckle that my eyes slowly opened, it was dark but the lights from the city outside dining through the window lit up enough of Grey's face for me to know it was him. 

"What time is it?" I yawned as he reached over pulling my hair away from my face. 

"Just after twelve." He whispered, "Come to bed." If Grey has said this to me earlier, I would have leaped for joy but I was too tired, far too tired to be doing anything. 

"I'm too tired to have sex." I grumbled out causing him to chuckle. 

"Shh baby the boys are literally sleeping beside you." He hushed me as I flushed, "I know your tired but your not sleeping here, come." He held out his hand and I slowly took it, grumbling and wobbly from my tired state. 

He turned, my hand still in his as he led us to the bedroom I was more than familiar with. I looked at the cosy bed and wanted to through myself into it. Instinctively I walked towards it but was pulled back by Grey. 

"Uh-huh." He scolded. "Bathroom and change then bed." He told me like I was a child. 

"Yes dad." I grumbled causing his nose to scrunch distastefully. 

"That's wrong don't call me that again." I lightly laughed at his facial expression as I headed in the direction of the bathroom. 

"Sorry...Daddy." I walked into the bathroom, picking up a spare toothbrush and applying toothpaste. 

"Stop that's wrong." He grumbled behind me, "I've f****d you so that's definitely way too wrong." He shook his head in disgust and I let out a full blown laugh, spitting some toothpaste onto his mirror. 

"Sorry." I laughed out as he just rolled his eyes. 

"I'll let it slide." He smirked, putting his toothbrush in his mouth and brushing away. 

Something about this made my tummy flutter. It wasn't exactly intimate brushing your teeth next to the guy who your crushing hard on but it felt comfortable. It's one of those moments when you imagine yourself married to the person next to you, both tired and kids in bed. It felt good. 

Just minus the fact that there was a very slim chance of that ever happening but for now, I could dream. 

"Did you put blankets over them? It get's cold in the sitting area at night, I don't want them to become unwell." I frowned. 

"Who gives a s**t about them." Grey mumbled while brushing his teeth, he quickly spat out into the basin before turning to me. "They should have went back to their own rooms if they were feeling tired." He concluded turning on the tap to clear the basin. 

"Grey." I scolded with narrowed eyes, he couldn't leave them out there cold during the night. 

"Ems relax." He rolled his eyes, "They have blankets, I promise." I smiled in satisfaction, he cares more than he lets on. 

I popped the toothbrush back into the holder before turning on the tap and quickly rinsing my face. I grabbed a towel nearby and dried myself as I headed out into the bedroom. 

"Grey can I have one of your-"

"It's on the bed." He called out from the bathroom. 

I turned to the bed were a white shirt had been placed out for me, I quickly stripped and placed the cold shirt on me buttoning it up. Luckily, I had a hair tie on my wrist so I quickly popped my hair into a messy bun to avoid being strangled during the night. 

I lifted the pillows away from the bed and placed them neatly on the floor to the side. The room was in darkness so if I carelessly launched them, Grey could trip and land on his ass. I let out a small wicked snicker-it would be funny. 

I decided against it and pulled back the sheets and quickly climbed in, the bed was ridiculously cold much like this room. Grey had told me previously he likes his room to be cold at nights but there's cold and there's cold cold. A fridge probably has a higher temperature. 

I snuggled like a baby in the bed, the covers right up to my chin and laying in the foetal position. I was freezing, I reached my hands out to touch my nose and it was like an ice cube. 

"Grey can we maybe turn the air con off? It's freezing in here." I whined as he walked around the other side of the bed in nothing but his boxers. 

Hot damn.  

He clicked a button beside the bed and instantly, I felt a relief from the cold surge that circled the room. He pulled back the sheets and climbed in bedside me, dumping his mobile and cigarettes on the bedside table. 

His leg brushed mine and he pulled it back instantly. 

"f**k your freezing." He told me with a hiss at the contact. 

"I literally just said that." I grumbled reaching my hand out to push him slightly. 

His body heat was radiating off him, right now he felt like the sun to me. 

"Ohh your warm." I whispered pushing myself closer to hun causing to him to hiss at my freezing skin hitting his roasty toasty skin. 

"Are you always this cold at night?" He asked, wrapping an arm around my waist and pulling me close so my head was resting against his chest. 

"I'm forever cold." I mumbled out sleepily, "I told you when we buy a house it was always be toasty toasty inside..no air con needed." I yawned causing him to chuckle. 

"Go to sleep baby." I did, blissfully. 

I stretched slightly with a yawn as the light in the room stirred me from my sleep. I was roasting and heat surrounded every limb, I didn't want to wake up it was too cosy. 

"You talk in your sleep." A whisper came from beside me causing me to peek one eye open. 

Grey was laying on his side, his eyes wide awake watching me. How long had he been doing that for? My legs were tangled with his, actually to be more realistic I was wrapped around him like a koala bear. One leg tangled with his, the other over his hip, my arm wrapped around his waist and with a gentle squeeze, I could tell his hand rested on my bare bottom. 

"I do?" I whispered back with another yawn. 

"Mhmm." He mumbled with a small smile rubbing circles on my bottom with his fingertips. 

"Did I say anything interesting?" I asked with a smile  turning slightly to face him. 

"Do you talk in your sleep a lot?" He asked quietly, his brows furrowed and a small frown on his face. 

"Only when I'm stressed over something." I told him, "I think it started when I was at college and it's never left." I chuckled lightly. 

"Emily...the family dinner on Sunday it's going to fine, you know that right?" I frowned. Clearly I was speaking my worries into the hair last night, "You kept saying calling your Dad, saying you were sorry and something about disappointing him. You were calling on me and...you were sweating bad. I...I couldn't get back to sleep after that, I thought you were going to wake up and sob." I frowned, I can't remember anything but it couldn't have been that bad surely.  

It didn't sound like I was worried about the dinner, it sounded like I was worried about telling my Dad about leaving the publishing house. I was more worried about disappointing him and letting him down. As for Grey, I had no idea why I would be calling his name out. Normally when I speak in my sleep, I've had a terrible dream and I obviously didn't because I couldn't remember it. 

"Do I smell bad?" I asked lifting my arm to check, he chuckled softly beside me pulling me closer. 

"You smell beautiful." He smiled causing me to grin. 

"Did you just give me a for real compliment?" I grinned, "Oh Grey-Bear your going soft on me, if I knew that sleeping beside you brought out your sweet side I would have skipped the s*x the first time." I playfully told him bagging my eyelashes, in a swift movement. He smacked with ass hard, causing my smile to leave and a smirk to appear on his. 

"Did you just spank me?" I asked playfully appalled, he smirked before leaning over and kissing my cheek. 

"For the record Angel," He leaned closer so his breathe tickled my ear, "If I was soft during s*x, you wouldn't come multiple times." He teased before thrusting gently against my thigh allowing me to feel his erection. "Luckily for you, this guy is always hard when your around." I'm pretty sure my cheeks by this point were beet red. 

"Prude." I mumbled pushing him back and causing laughter to escape his lips. 

"Let's get up before the sleeping beauties moan about my lack of hosting because they have no breakfast." He groaned causing me to giggle, "Care to join me in the shower Miss T?" He smirked, extending a hand as he stood from the bed. I looked down to his boxers, his impressive length looking constricted. 

"Hmm I don't know, I mean.." 

Before I could finish, Grey had lifted me from the bed and hoisted me over his shoulder as I erupted into giggles. He lightly smacked my ass as he walked in the direction of the bathroom. 

"Sadly for you Angel, I don't like being told no." He told me huskily, slamming the door behind him as I continued to laugh as he placed me on the ground. "Strip baby." 

I smiled as I held my coffee to my lips. Clearly what happened in the shower wasn't PG, that I'm sure you would have guessed. However, in a place where your muscle relax as the heat poured down on you...every single one of my muscles was tensed and it felt mind blowing. 

I looked up to Grey, he was sat across from me. His hair still damp from the shower and a devilish smile playing on his face. 

"Careful baby, I might take you for round two." He teased only loud enough for me to hear. Clearly he knew what I was thinking about. 

I quickly made a breakfast for us all consisting of some scramble, toast and bacon. Grey started of helping me, but the boy was hopeless in the kitchen and I soon ushered him away to make the coffees instead. That he could do. 

"G'morning!" I turned to Benny who squealed loudly from the sofa mid-stretch with a smile. "I smell food, Grey baby your too kind." He said playfully peaking his head over the back of the sofa causing Grey to glare. 

"It wasn't me dickhead." He grumbled back before taking a sip of his coffee. 

"I love how sweet you are in the mornings." He smiled before turning to look at his leg, kicking like a mad man. "Maddox get off my foot you smelly s**t!" He snapped continuing to kick trying to free his foot, I laughed at the sight. 

Benny was still half asleep, eyes half closed with messy bed hair. He had a hand gripped onto the back of the sofa and he was kicking and wriggling about like a mad man. 

"Benny I f*****g dare you to kick me again, I'll break your f*****g foot!" Maddox growled out and Benny stilled turning to me. 

"Is anyone nice in the morning here? I'm asking for a friend?" He pouted with sad eyes causing me to erupt into giggles again. 

"I'm nice Benny, come and talk to me." I told him with a smile, patting my hand on the stool next to me. 

"I can't my foot is stuck." He pouted with a whine. 

"Probably best you stay over there Bro...little advice in advance, she ain't a morning person in the slightest." Grey smirked towards Benny, "Her attitude is appalling in the mornings, she's had a go at me already." My cheeks flushed and I kicked Grey under the table causing him to wince and look at me with a glare. 

"What was that for?" He asked with a whine. 

"I seen that." Benny called out, "I'll stay over here if someone can hand me some scramble and bacon I'm good." He pointed to the food, giving me a sickly sweet smile. 

"Don't listen to him Benny, I'm only nice to those who I actually like in the mornings." I told him but glared at Grey, "which happens to include you so over you come." I looked to him with a smile as he looked between me and Grey unsure what to do. 

"You definitely liked me this morning Angel." Grey muttered with a smirk taking a sip from his coffee cup. 

"I was only nice because you let me use your shower." I quickly fired back causing his smirk to deepen. 

"Tell me...did I cover all bases?" He teased as my cheeks continued to flare. 

"OMG!" Benny squealed, "Did you two have sexy time in the shower this morning?" 

"No."

"Absolutely not." 

Me and Grey both expressed at the same time., both of us looking in the direction of Benny. Benny looked between us with his eyes narrowed trying to suss the situation out, my heart was racing. 

"I believe you." He finally spoke and I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding, "Now can someone please give me breakfast my stomach is literally touching my back...I'm hungry!" He whined as Grey quickly got up and made him a plate of food, handing it over to him with a fork. 

Grey turned to look at me and the message that he gave with his eyes was clear. 

"We need to talk."
