《Always Him.》𝐶ℎ𝑎𝑝𝑡𝑒𝑟 45

My eyes slowly open, adjusting to the sunlight in the room. Wait a damn minute this is not my room. Oh right, I'm in Hawaii.
I look down to the arms around my stomach. Remember that pillow I told Axton, not, to move. Well it's on the floor now. As much as I wanna deny it, waking up like this every day could possibly make the mornings better.
But he's getting married.
Right.
I try to get up but his grip only tightens.
"Axton, get up." I tell him but he mumbles a slurred no.
"Didn't you say we have a busy day today?" I ask him and he whines like a little child.
"Get up. Oh and didn't I say not to move the pillow."
"You also said Trey was a and I quote 'Really amazing guy.' where did that get you huh?" Boy shut up, I'm trying to be mad at you and your morning voice is not helping.
I glare at him.
"Shut up," I tell him as he gets up from the bed.
"Make me." he says and I grab a pillow, pretending like I'm smoothening the silk case. But then I hit him, hard. Across the face. He stands there in disbelief and I start laughing.
"You should have seen your face!" I start laughing at how shocked he was.
"Is it really funny?" he asks and I can't even speak so I just nod my head.
"Oh yeah?" he asks walking towards me.
"Let me give you something to laugh about." he says before reaching his hand over to my side and tickling me.
"Axton stop it-" I laugh but he just continues.
"Axton-" I can barely breathe, but laughs till manage to escape me.
"Axton stop please!" I laugh and he finally stops as I drop on the bed, still sobering up from my laugh attack.

"I hate you," I say while trying to breathe.
"Yeah, I know. Now let's go get breakfast. Soph look at the time and you're still in bed!" he says like I wasn't the one up first.
"Hey, I was up before you buddy!" I yell as he walks into the bathroom.
After several minutes of bickering about avocado, we finally make it to the cafe downstairs. It was fairly filled with people.
"How can you eat avocado?" he asks me scowling as I glare at him.
"How can you not?" I ask him raising a brow.
"It's so, tasteless," he says and I roll my eyes.
"It's avocado, you asshole," I mumble under my breath and he throws a napkin at me, obviously he heard.
"What are we doing today?" I ask him taking a piece of my avocado toast.
"Well, firstly we're going to meet some uh, people." I raise an eyebrow because why is he so, nervous?
"Mhm.." I hum in response, taking a sip of my ice coffee.
"Then we're doing that model thing you're forcing me to do." he says and I chuckle.
"Then, we have dinner at my hotel." he says and I grin, I'm excited to see his hotel!
"Sounds good." I smile.

"You're drinking it wrong!" he yells at me and I slap his arm with my spare hand.
"Sophi you're doing it wrong!" Axton laughs again.
"Well I'm not a professional coconut drinker." I glare at him.
We were at a very, traditional part of Hawaii, this side of the dreamland felt more cozy and homey.
"I can teach you." he says and I roll my eyes.
"Axton." A woman in a traditional dress walks up to us, her long jet black hair flowing in the wind and her dark brown eyes sparkle with the sunlight.

"Alaina." Axton nods, that's his basic form of greeting.
"Is this Sophia?" the lady asks and I put this huge ass coconut down.
"Hi, yes I am." I smile at her.
"I'm Alaina." She smiles, pulling me into a hug.
"Am-" She begins but Axton cuts her off.
"So where is she?" he asks. Who is she?
"Kalani is bringing her, where is Jace?" Who is Kalani? and how does she know Jace?
I'm so confused.
"What is she-" I whisper to Axton but I'm interrupted by an adorable voice.
"Axton!" the toddler says his name and I turn around to see a little girl, dressed in a cute beachy dress. Her dark brown hair in a little ponytail and her little feet running to Axton. I look at him, a smile on his face. He likes her.
"Hey Melia," he says picking her up. Meila?
Ameila! His sister.
She's absolutely adorable.
Her blue eyes find mind, she looks just like Eleanor.
"You're very pretty, like a princess." she giggles, talking to me. I'm talking to the youngest McKay.
"Thank you. I'm Sophia." I smile at her, she smiles back and my heart is stolen.
"I'm Meila, well, Ameila but mama calls me Meila." she says and I smile at how well spoken she is.
"I really like your name Amelia." I tell her and she smiles but turns away to converse with Axton.
"Axton, I got an A on my math test!" she says and I look between the two of them.
"Oh yeah? That's great, well I have something for you." he tells her, taking a bag from one of the guards that came with us.
"Here you go." he hands her a Cinderella themed Pandora box. So that's who he bought it for. I smile as her eyes light up.
"Sophia, can I talk to you?" Alaina asks me and I nod as she escorts me into a very cozy hut.
"I just wanted to say you're an amazing person." she tells me, but I'm confused, I just met her.
"Thank you Alaina, as are you. You took in a kid that wasn't your own. Clearly you're doing an amazing job raising her." I tell her and she frowns.
"I try. When we first took her in, we were doing well financially. But recently my husband has been having problems at work, so we needed assistance in raising her financially." she says and I nod.
"You know, when we first met with Axton, he refused to assist us." she says and I frown, he doesn't like trusting people, because all he's had in return were stabs to his back.
"Then Jace brought you up. He thought about it and then he agreed. You have such a positive effect on him."
I chuckle and she joins me.
"I pray to God you two have beautiful babies." she says and my eyes widen.
"We're not togther-"
"Don't try that on me, I can smell a storm before it hits, I see love, I know it." I try not to smile, but I fail.
"Alaina, if you ever need anything at all, you not only have Axton, but me too. Axton can give you my number, " I tell her and she smiles.
"Thank you, it means so much." she pulls me into a hug.
"Soph, we uh, we have to get back to the hotel." Axton says and I immediately sense something wrong.
"What's wrong?' I ask him, he hesitates to tell me.
"Your um."
"Someone tried to um, Soph I don't want to tell you right now." Is he mad?
"What? Tell me."
"Your office in Florida.."
"What?" I ask him.
"It's burnt down." I freeze.
"I-i-" I stutter.
