Ivy woke to warmth. She was still on top of Jack, his arms wrapped around her as he slumbered peacefully beneath her. He looked like one of those angel statues carved out of stone she’d seen in photography books. He was breathtaking.

“If you keep staring at me like that I’m going to charge you a fee,” Jack teased, stretching.

“I thought you were asleep.”

“I was … kind of,” Jack murmured. “I’m too warm and comfortable to move, so I’ve been zoning out.”

“You look handsome in the morning.”

Jack wrenched his eyes open and focused on Ivy for the first time that day. “You don’t look so bad yourself.”

Ivy made a face that caused Jack to smirk. “I have bedhead,” she replied. “Men wake up looking better than when they went to sleep and women wake up looking like train wrecks.”

“I think you look cute,” Jack countered, cupping the back of her head so he could kiss her. It was a soft gesture, simple, and yet it caused Ivy’s heart rate to speed up. “What time is it?” he asked.

“Probably about the time you need to get up so you can go to work.” Ivy wasn’t happy with the prospect.

“Probably,” Jack agreed, although he showed no signs of moving. “I’m not sure how I’m supposed to leave the happiest place on earth.”

Ivy pursed her lips but couldn’t entirely swallow her smile. “That’s probably the best thing you could’ve said.”

Jack snuggled her close again, relishing how her body fit against his so perfectly. “I can call Brian and tell him I’ll be late. He’ll understand. He’ll give me endless grief about it, but he’ll understand. We can spend the next three hours exactly like this and then face the day.”

Ivy lifted her head. “We can’t stay like this for three hours.”

“Well, I thought we might do a little something else, too,” Jack teased, tickling her ribs.

“That sounds nice,” Ivy said, skirting his grip. “We can’t do that right now either, though.”

Jack didn’t bother to hide his disappointment. “Why not?”

“Because if you don’t stop holding me so tightly I’m going to have an accident,” Ivy admitted. “We haven’t moved in ten hours. Nature is calling.”

Jack grinned. He couldn’t help himself. She was the cutest thing he’d ever laid eyes on. “Well, then I guess I should let you go and do your thing while I start breakfast,” he said. “We’ll catch up on that other stuff after we fuel up.”

“Deal.”
