Jackson

The sound of the alarm on Jackson’s phone sprung him from his slumber; he slapped the phone to shut off the alarm.

Damn it, it’s too fuckin’ early.

Jackson rolled onto his side and grabbed the water bottle on the bedside table, quickly chugging down its contents and feeling around for the Tylenol he had laid there the night before.

I’m gonna need these today. He tossed the four pills into his mouth and washed them down with water as he sat up in the bed. He flipped on the television and turned the channel to Cartoon Network, watching as he rubbed the sleep from his eyes. Scanning his surroundings, he noticed the wall next to him was entirely made of windows. He had realized the night before that the remote control operated the surround sound, but apparently it also controlled the curtains. “Bonus!” he said, grabbing the remote and opening the curtains.

The curtains also hid the door to the deck with the hot tub. The falling snow was a beautiful sight as he watched from the comfort of the huge king size bed.

“What to do today?” Jackson exclaimed.

“Your list is extremely long today Jackson, my man,” Jackson said.

“Who are you talking to man?” Jackson asked himself.

“Well, I’m sane as long as I don’t answer myself.” Jackson laughed.

“Coffee…must have coffee.” Jackson crawled out of the huge bed and shivered when his bare feet hit the cold floor, but he was a badass Army Green Beret, so nothing phased him.

The cabin was impressive. Jackson had never experienced this kind of lavish lifestyle, but he thought he just might be able to be talked into it. He had spent enough time around Andrew, who definitely one who took advantage of his parent's money. Jackson was surprised that Andrew’s parents didn’t cut him off from the family fortune when he joined the Army.

Some families would have, but the Bryants were huge supporters of the military. Andrew was still responsible for running the part of the company that donated to various veteran and military charities. Jackson was lucky enough to join him at a few of the auctions where he was also able to see Annabelle, Andrew’s little sister.

It just took that one kiss between them at the unit’s deployment party that made Jackson fall head over heels for Annabelle. Well, ok, it was a lot of heavy petting and kissing, but the point was it changed Jackson. If they had been alone, they might have taken it all the way, but Jackson was also a bit of an old soul, and with Annabelle he wanted it to be special. To Jackson, she was not just some one-night stand. She wasn’t just his best friend’s little sister, she was a whole lot more. He just hadn’t completely figured out what it was before he was injured in the ambush.

Navigating the cabin was a whole lot easier in the daytime than in the dark. He had tried to find the fridge when he came in from the airport, but he had no luck finding the light switch.
