as possible before heading back out to Jax.

    We’ve managed to get through another week or so without any more break-ins or suspicious activity. Well suspicious activity from anyone other than Charli.
    Other than acting a little more on edge, she’s been driving me crazy with all her innuendos, gentle touches, and non-stop flirting. I’m not complaining but I know what she’s trying to do and it’s killing me watching her walk around the apartment in nothing but some tight shorts and t-shirt, or brushing her hand along my arm when she reaches for the remote. It’s a stupid game we’re playing now but it’s kind of hot, knowing eventually one of us is going to cave in to the other and fuck is it going to be good. I don’t know whether she’s trying to distract me as well from asking all the questions that are festering deep in my mind. What is she hiding?
    The last few days of her classes we walk together to campus. She joked and laughed like nothing was wrong and surprised me by pulling my arm around her and sliding in as close as possible against me.
    If anyone saw us I would imagine we looked like a normal couple just walking down the street together, which made me grin and completely forget about what I wanted to ask her.
    After her classes finished we’d just lounge around and watch movies, again she would sit as close as possible to me. One night she fell asleep against my chest, her body pressed against mine so I instinctively reached out and started running my fingers through her hair while the movie played. I for the life of me wouldn’t even be able to tell you what we watched because having her that close to me, I couldn’t even think of anything else.
    I could smell her freshly washed hair and her skin had some kind of girly vanilla coconut smell to it from one of her lotions.
    Even this morning, I woke up to her curled up against my side and I stupidly did not want to move a muscle, not wanting to wake her up and have her move away from me.
    I pull out some bowls from the cupboard and pour us both a bowl of cereal. She’s in the shower now so I wait before I put the milk in.
    “Jax?” I hear her yell from the bathroom. I put down my spoon and walk into the bedroom, then I sigh and lean against the bathroom door.
    “What’s up?” I ask casually, trying not to sound too croaky since I’m picturing her naked.
    “Can you grab me some clothes…I uhh…forgot” I can hear her giggle slightly.
    Forgot her clothes? I’m sure she did I groan inwardly. I brush my hand down my face and start looking around the bedroom for some of her stuff.
    I grab some shorts and a sweater and then take a deep breath before searching through her underwear. I don’t even pay attention and just grab the first thing I lay my hands on.
    I knock lightly and then open the door a fraction to make sure she’s not walking around naked in there. If that were the case I’d probably drop what I’m holding and jump right in the shower with her – fully clothed.
    It’s misty from the hot water and the mirror is completely fogged up so I creep in quickly and put the clothes down next to the sink.
    “While you’re in here, can you pass me my toothbrush please?” she asks and sticks her hand out through the small gap of the open shower door.
    Her slim arm glistens with the water and I realise I’m standing there with my mouth hanging open. If she opens the door just a fraction more I’d be able to see absolutely everything, every inch of her soft wet skin.
    I reach behind me without looking and grab the first toothbrush I lay my hands on, take a step towards her and shove the toothbrush into her open palm.
    I quickly take the few steps to the door and yank it open before I do something stupid. Once I’m free from the steamy bathroom I take a deep breath and groan when I hear her laughing her goddamn ass off; fucking cheeky.
    I know exactly what she’s trying to do and I
