Julie was still sleeping when Elijah woke up later than usual. It was past 10AM and even though he would have preferred to be on the road by now, he decided to let her sleep. She had had a nightmare in the middle of the night during which she had turned around and moved closer to him and gripped his shirt and still hadn't let go. He looked down at her and saw her peaceful face. He gently brushed away the hair that was on her face and started caressing her cheek with his knuckle. She moved at the contact, let go of the shirt and rested her hand on his chest.

"Elijah," she breathed out, half awake.

He smiled and looked down at her, watching her slowly wake up. "Good morning."

"Hey," she sighed without opening her eyes. Elijah moved so she was lying on her back and he propped himself on his elbow and leaned to kiss her. She opened her eyes when his lips covered hers just to close them again as she kissed him back. She moaned when he moved away and grimaced when she saw him grin.

"I'll order breakfast," he said before he got out of bed. "Do you want anything special?"

"Mmh...you," she grinned and he laughed.

"I mean to eat."

"I know what you mean," she said, propping herself on her elbow.

Elijah smiled then chuckled and shook his head, amused, before he went back to the bed. She bit her lower lip as she watched him approach.

"You're starting something you're not going to be able to end," he whispered in her ear before he placed a kiss on her neck.

"I don't want it to end," she whispered back.
